Aaron Chord (Earth-616) VS Aaron Soames (Earth-616)

In 1966 during the Vietnam War, an American recon patrol in Cambodia stumbled upon the ancient, hidden temple of a cult known as the Dragon's Breath, which had remained hidden for centuries. It had been built upon a well-spring of raw, primal energy called the "Well of All Things". The inhabitants decided to breed a superior race that would one day unite with the ways of the west. They believed that this union would produce children capable of harnessing the power of the Well. The members of the recon patrol were to be the fathers of these children, one of these men was Andrew Chord; the man who would become Midnight Fire's father.[1] Midnight's Fire Midnight's Fire and his sister Silhouette were the only children of Andrew Chord, former guardian of Dwayne Taylor and his wife Miyami (daughter of Tai). Silhouette and Midnight's Fire were operating as independent vigilantes in the streets of New York City when they met Dwayne, before he became the vigilante Night Thrasher. The three began an organized effort to take down various New York City street gangs.

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.
