Monkey Man (DC Comics)

The Monkey Man is a character who made his first and only appearance in Mr. District Attorney #8. He was an ugly man who resembled a chimpanzee and was double-jointed, a trait that allowed him to move like a monkey as well.

Character History
Arthur "The Monkey Man" Steitziz was an ugly man who had been teased and taunted all his life for his monkey-like facial appearance and agility. Joining a circus, he became the star of the show, yet still could not escape the cruel taunts of his fellow performers. Running away from the circus, he fell into a life of crime, stealing to survive until he was cornered by the District Attorney and his men. Plummeting from o roof after the drainpipe he was on was shot out from under him, the Monkey Man was taken to the hospital where his face was surgically repaired by the doctors there. Because he realized that it was his original face that had driving Arthur into a life of crime, the District Attorney himself acted as the Monkey Man's defense counsel and was succesful in getting him fully acquitted of all crimes, the only time he ever did so in the whole comic book series. When the Monkey Man saw his new fsce for the first time, he turned over a new leaf and became a highly respected businessman and a happily married man under a new name and identity.
