HistoryEdit

Vincenzo Baldi was an Italian-American child on the streets of New York, over a generation ago. He and his friends became the guardians of a dog known as Millions who had inherited a large amount of money from a lonely rich fool. Under the nickname "Kid Scarface", Baldi worked with his friends as they put the money into a printing press and became the Newsboy Army. They vowed that nothing would ever divide them.

But the group's fortunes changed when they decided to investigaste the Terrible Time Tailor of Slaughter Swamp. New futures were laid on the group, and they became homeless wizards, reclusive millionaires... and immortals.

Vincenzo's destiny was altered, and he found the Undry Cauldron of legend, which has the power to reanimate a dead man placed within it. Baldi used the cauldron to set himself up as the Undying Don, leader of the West Coast Mob. He had a low-level war with his enemies, the Silencio family of the East Coast Mob, but otherwise he was left to himself.

In the runup to the Infinite Crisis, Baldi was embroiled in the reclamation efforts of the Sheeda. They killed him and stole the Undry Cauldron.

After his death, his mansion was the site of a confrontation between Zatanna and the Cosmic Huntsman.
