Deadman
Boston Brand
Post-Crisis
History
Deadman is a ghost, formerly a circus acrobat named Boston Brand, who was murdered during a trapeze performance by a mysterious assailant known only as Hook. His spirit is given the power to possess any living being by a Hindu goddess named Rama Kushna, in order to search for his murderer and obtain justice. However, Brand finds himself obliged to help others while on his search, using his power to intervene and control living persons to help the innocent.
The criminals used the traveling circus they worked for to smuggle "snow" -- either heroin or cocaine.
Ultimately, Boston finds out the truth about his murder and came to accept his role as one who intervenes in mortals' lives. read more
