Jack Dane

Jack Dane

Jack Dane is Mace Malone's stepson, the son of Flo Dane.

History

He was born as Jack Dane around 1919; in 1924, when he was five years old, Malone abandoned him and his mother at the Illuminati's orders. Jack followed his stepfather's footsteps, entering the world of organized crime, and in the process, became a bitter rival to the Dracons. After testifying against them in court, he entered the Witness Protection Program, taking on the new name of "Jack Danforth" and assuming the identity of a retired banker who spent his time at the V-Shape Health Club. Martin Hacker informed Matt Bluestone about Jack Danforth, mistakenly believing that it would be another false lead, but Jack was able to help Matt locate Mace Malone. ("Revelations")

Later on, when Tomas Brod came to New York and entered into a turf war with Tony Dracon, Jack came out of "retirement" to assist him. After Elisa, the trio, and Angela defeated Brod's forces, however, Jack quickly found himself behind bars. ("Turf")

Jack feels strongly that Mace Malone is a bum.
