Fictional character biography
Centuries of murder in a locale named Christ's Crown, New York, drew the attention of a demon-lord, Mephisto, who created a "son", Blackheart, from the energy of the accumulated evil. Blackheart explored the nature of evil under his father's tutelage, clashing with and failing to corrupt Daredevil and Spider-Man.[1] Mephisto and Blackheart once tormented Daredevil, Brandy Ash, the genetically engineered Number Nine, and the Inhumans Gorgon, Karnak, and Ahura, manipulating their emotions and tricking them. They were soon drawn into hell for worse torments. Brandy Ash did not survive.[2] This article is about the Marvel Comics character. ...

Mephisto sent Blackheart to Earth with diminished powers to learn humility. Blackheart would return to Christ's Crown and tempt Ghost Rider, Punisher, and Wolverine to the town itself in an attempt to corrupt them. The group would eventually follow Blackheart back into his own realm for a final confrontation.[3] He would once again attempt to commission their services, using them to help him finally destroy Mephisto, and taking over his portion of Hell.

Unlike his comic book-counterpart, in which he is a large black-skinned demon with quills on his head, a tail and red eyes, in the film Blackheart assumes his "human" form, with white, pale skin and black hair, though at many points in the film, he shows his demonic facial features (having black eyes and large fangs). Despite having many presumed supernatural powers, he mainly uses his hands to kill people with a "lethal touch", it effects having the characteristics of sulfur poisoning. He also reveals the ability to sense people by "smelling their fear". Though he has all of his father's powers, Blackheart is unaffected by anything holy, as he entered both a church and later sacred funeral ground. He is immune to the Ghost Rider's Penance Stare, as "he has no soul". At the end of the film, when he becomes Legion, his skin turning dark blueish with red eyes and his powers are greatly enhanced; becoming nearly invincible with the ability to regenerate from even being blown to pieces.

Blackheart first appears in the film, searching for the Three Fallen Angels (a.k.a., The Hidden), Abigor (Wind Demon), Wallow (Water Demon) and Gressil (Earth Demon), in a bar, where he kills all the humans. He aligns The Hidden with him on a quest to obtain the contract of San Venganza (that allows the user access to the power of 1,000 souls). But when Mephisto finds out about his son's search for the contract, he forces Johnny Blaze to serve his purpose as his Ghost Rider to track down and kill Blackheart and his minions. The Rider first kills Grissel at an empty train station; then, kills Abigor on top of a building using his chain. But when Blackheart kills Johnny's manager/friend Mack, kidnaps Roxanne Simpson, Johnny was forced to give him the contract at San Venganza, momentarily slowed down by the last of the Hidden, Wallow, in a lake so by the time he arrives, the sun rose with minutes of the ensuing struggle. Once gaining the contract, Blackheart calls for all the 1,000 cursed souls to enter his body, taking on the name of Legion. However, Blaze took advantage as Blackheart/Legion was now vulnerable to the Penance Stare a thousand-fold. After Blackheart was subjected to the stare, Mephisto arrives at the scene and takes away his son's comatose body back to Hell. Jesus healing the man from Gerasa. ...
