Discus is a mercenary for hire who normally works with his brother Stiletto and they have come into conflict with numerous heroes including Luke Cage, Iron Fist and Spider Man.
Discus and Stiletto confront Cage.
Stiletto and Discus would be employed as one of Justin Hammer's reserve operatives on his floating compound. Tony Stark was held captive on Hammer's houseboat but managed to escape and disarm Hammer's armor-control computer. Hammer called out all his super powered villains to take down Iron Man but were unsuccesful. Stiletto was unable to get any of his blades through Iron Man's armor or through the plexiglass shields lowered over his mouth and eye slits. Iron Man then activated a reversed magnetism field around his armor to deflect Discus's flying discs and repelled them back to the Stuart brothers. The Stuart brothers and the rest of Hammer's operatives were defeated and apprehended by the authorities.
The Stuart brothers claimed to have found religion after they were released from prison and tried to put their past as Stiletto and Discus behind them. Their parole officer gave them the address of a Miss Tilda Johnson who would be able to find jobs for them. They were greeted at the door by Man-Mountain Marko and Edward Lavell also known as the Eel. The Stuart brothers told Tilda Johnson that they have gone straight and did not want to get involved in any illegal or dishonest activities. Tilda Johnson told the brothers that she wanted to hire them as bodyguards and escort her to the Manhattan Society's Debutante Cotillion. Tilda managed to persuade the brothers to agree and take the job. Tilda was actually the criminal known as Deadly Nightshade and planned to use the brothers for this caper. The Stuart brothers were back in their old costumes when Nightshade used some special mesmer dust to take control of their minds. The cotillion had some special guest that included Luke Cage and Iron Fist. The two heroes come into conflict with Nightshade and her criminal cohorts as they crash the ball and try to steal the money and jewelry from the people inside. Nightshade orders the Stuart brothers to use their weapons on Iron Fist. Iron Fist diverted Discus's weapon to strike Man-Mountain Marko which allowed Cage to take the upper hand. Nightshade was knocked out by a punch throwned by the debutant and the Stuart brothers were able to regain their senses. Stiletto decided to help Iron Fist and used his cryogenic dagger to cause the Eel's suit to overload.
Stiletto and Discus would eventually return to villainy and come into conflict with other heroes including Black Panther, Captain America and Spider Man.
Discus cuts down his enemies with his razor sharp discs.
