YMMV / Button Man

• Magnificent Bastard: Harry Exton is a British mercenary-turned-contract killer who joins an underground Killing Game to kill numerous opponents at the behest of powerful sponsors known only as the Voices. Harry is a walking instrument of death who beats every other 'Button Man' sent against him through cunning far more often than brute force, either luring them into traps or out-gambitting them with various back-ups. Exton manages to acquire his freedom by going after the Voices themselves, blackmailing a U.S. senator with evidence of his ties to the Game, and later wiping out a Carnival of Killers by luring them back to his home turf with the tracking device they had planted on him before faking his own death and killing off the only witness. When faced with a young woman who was convinced that he killed her father, Harry reveals that he refused to participate in what he considered to be a thug's job before teaming up with her to successfully take on the Voices. A reserved, brilliantly dangerous killer, Harry Exton's sheer force of will and talent at surviving made him a legend in the history of the Game.
