A former member of the Minutemen, Dollar Bill - aka William Brady - joined the costumed adventures after his employees at the First National Bank contacted Larry Schexnayder, recommending him for the team. He took part in a number of their events, including their Christmas Party and their professional photo shoot, where he earned the respect of Hollis Mason; Mason seeing him as one of the "nicest men" he had ever known.In 1946, just weeks after the death of The Silhouette, Dollar Bill was shot and killed at point-blank range after his cape got stuck in the revolving door whilst trying to prevent a robbery from happening.
His death impacted heavily on his former teammates, in particular, Nite Owl and Mothman, with the latter consoling himself with even more alcohol than usual.
