 The Blue Knight was born because the dance failed.  It is as simple and complex as that. Police officer Joshua Stone, a single parent, is grieved at the senseless lost of his only son, killed by bullets running stray during a gang shooting. It becomes the motivating factor, pushing Joshua to brandish a harsher, vigilante form of justice as the Blue Knight. But is this really Joshua Stone enhancing his police duties in the guise of a vengeful super-hero, or is this a spiritual manifestation of his murdered son's essence? We can't be sure.

 * Based on [[Vince Oleck]]'s recollections, the Blue Knight also has the ability to intrude upon people's dreams. Or so it seems. That dream incidents could also be the results of a person under extreme stress.   If true, this power would increase the likelihood of a supernatural source for at least some of the Blue Knights powers.

 === The Oleck Family Incident ===
-Amidst the early appearances of the Blue Knight the Oleck Family Incident is one of the most brutal. Vince Oleck had been court assigned to defend the son of the Forgione mob boss. Vince's successful skills as a lawyer were strangely rewarded with threats from the Forgiones. They had pursued the fleeing Oleck family, but the swift and deadly interventions of the Blue Knight saved them from assassination.  The entire Forgione mob was eliminated.

 === The Dark Age Sightings ===
 * personal encounters with the Williams brothers
 * pursuit of Royal Williams
 * possession and battle with mystic forces like [[Simon Magus]]
-While many Astro City Citizens are convinced the that the Blue Knight is a mystic Phenomenon, there have been no confirmed sightings since the early 1980s. But there are rumors, and fear-filled speculation that the Blue Knight is still around, still patrolling the darker streets of Astro City.

 Part of the Blue Knight's fearful and mysterious imagery is enhanced since we still lack definite evidence in regards to whether his powers come from supernatural forces, or are the skilled detective techniques of a clever police officer. Perhaps it is a combination of the two. If it is the latter, then where do the special weaponry/engineering skills end and the supernatural aspects begin?
-A newspaper article from 1983 purports that the Blue Knight was the ghost of officer '''Michael''' Stone (not Josh). It further details that he was killed with his whole precinct in a mob 'rubout' operation. The similarity in names could be a fact check oversight, an error of judgement on the part of the reporter, or maybe a tactic for concealment and misdirection.

 Above and beyond the name error, further speculation  might suggest some form of subterfuge or mistaken identity associated with the appearance of the group the [[Blue Knights]] near this time frame.  One of them may have taken on the identity of the actual Blue Knight and it may have been him who was killed.  Basic forensic evidence would tend to rule this out however.
