BIOGRAPHY[]
Frank D'Amico is the boss of the D'Amico Crime Family in New York City, and controls the city's cocaine trade. He is happily married to his wife Angie, and has a son named Chris who wishes to follow in his father's footsteps. In the past, Frank had a police officer who threatened his power, Damon Macready, framed for drug possession with the help of the corrupt detective Vic Gigante, and he was sent to prison, with his pregnant wife dying of an overdose drugs before giving birth to their daughter.
When Frank finds out that all his cocaine has been taken by a vigilante, he assumes it is Kick-Ass and orders him to be killed. Frank becomes more and more erratic, and kills a man dressed as Kick-Ass he saw on the street, as well as an innocent man who saw it.
So Chris has a plan on how to get Kick-Ass, Chris disguises himself as a superhero called Red Mist and tricks Kick-Ass into becoming his friend, he drives him to his father's warehouse only to find out that his has been burned and all the men have been killed.
Frank thinks first that it is Kick-Ass' doing, but Chris shows him a surveillance tape of Big Daddy killing all the men and burning the building, Frank still doesn't change his mind about Kick-Ass and has both him and Big Daddy captured and he then lets his men post a live video of them beating up and torturing Big Daddy and Kick-Ass, just as they are about to set the place on fire and kill them both, Hit-Girl comes and kills all the men and rescues Kick-Ass but Big Daddy gets badly burned and dies, so Hit-Girl and Kick-Ass decide to break into D'Amico's place and they kill all the men and finally come face-to-face with D'Amico. Kick-Ass battles Red Mist while Hit-Girl and D'Amico engage in a brutal fight, which D'Amico wins. Just as he is about to kill Hit-Girl, Kick-Ass appears with Big Daddy's bazooka and blasts D'Amico through a window, killing him in an explosion high above the city. Chris is shown at the end of the film, swearing vengeance on both Kick-Ass and Hit-Girl for his father's death.
