HISTORY 

Leon George, a secret agent of DANGER was sent to the Gold Coast of Africa to investigate the smuggling of uranium in the Magic Mountain deposit, one of the largest in the world. Lenny enlisted the services of a young war orphan named Bernard "Bubba" Mensah as his guide. With his help, Agent George was able to stop the sinister Doctor Sangro and his henchman Brosser. However, Sangro managed to escape and swore that he would get revenge on Leon and Bubba. And he made good on his threat. The duo was surprised by a booby trap. Bubba died instantly and Leon was left in a coma. The intervention of a mysterious shaman who infused George with the totemic spirit of the lion managed to bring him back to life. Now endowed with superhuman abilities, he became the Lionheart, ended the Sangro threat for good, and joined the Fixers.
