Description[]
The Century Club was a high-end membership club and restaurant located in the borough of Manhattan in New York City, New York. One of its regular and more infamous patrons was Wilson Fisk, also known as the Kingpin of Crime.
One evening, Daily Bugle managing editor J. Jonah Jameson burst into the club, interrupting Wilson Fisk as he was playing a game of pool. Jameson offered to turn over a document containing damning evidence against the Kingpin in exchange for information about a scandal on the waterfront. Impressed by Jameson's business proposition, the Kingpin agreed to reveal what he knew. [1]
