A Friend (Earth-616) VS Aaron Soames (Earth-616)

During a time when Mephisto was manipulating Johnny Blaze, aka Ghost Rider, into believing he was the biblical Satan, he also either posed as, or changed one of his demons into a mysterious savior who resembled Jesus.[1] After foiling a plot by "Satan" to take John's soul, this entity told John he was "a friend",[1] and appeared in his life a number of times. While John believed he may have been Jesus, it was later revealed by "Satan" that it was yet another manipulation on his part to try and steal Blaze's soul. The full extent of this entity's abilities has never been revealed, as it was a manipulation created by Mephisto. If the "friend" had any powers to begin with are questionable at best. He appeared to be able to repel Satan and presumably perform miracles.

Aaron Soames, 65, was deprived of his 35-year pension from Cordco, Incorporated when his legal records were accidentally destroyed and his employer Edwin Cord refused to acknowledge his claim. Soames stole an armor developed by Cord Conglomerate for the United States government. While trying to take revenge on Cord, Soames came to blows with Daredevil. Finally cornering Cord in front of the hero, Soames took his revenge - but not by killing his target. Rather, he destroyed Cord's ID cards and legal papers from his wallet, symbolically paying back his ex-employer for his betrayal. Right afterward, Soames was killed by Cord's security men firing a concussion beam which pierced his armor. Daredevil, in his civilian identity as Matt Murdock, was one of the few mourners at Soames' funeral.
