History: (Vigilante I #43) - Stringer was a freelance hitman who got immense pleasure about his job, and fetishized the use of a garrote to kill his targets. NYC's new crimeboss put a bounty on Vigilante's head, and Stringer caught up with him on an Amtrak train. He cornered Vigilante in the restroom, but needed more room to use his signature method of killing, so he allowed the fight to spill out onto the train,. Their battle raged, and they broke through a train window. They were passing a trainyard, and Vigilante impaled Stringer on a crane's hook.
