Having managed to obtain a Judas Rifle as part of his black market dealings, Diamondback had then kept it for himself. Once he decided to step up and deal with Luke Cage himself, following Cage's interference with one of his dealers, Cottonmouth, Diamondback sniped on Cage and was able to shoot one of the Judas Bullets into Cage's stomach, managing to penetrate Cage's skin, causing him to fall to the ground in agony, shocking that his seemingly unbreakable skin had been broken.[1]
