In Daredevil: Born Again, Kamar de los Reyes steps into the role of the White Tiger. After being falsely accused of killing a cop, Reyes is arrested and put into jail. However, when Matt Murdock believes that he is innocent, he decides to help him out and agrees to represent him in court. In the comics, Hector Ayala aka the White Tiger was created by Bill Mantio, Yvette Perez, and George Perez.
He was first introduced in Deadly Hands of Kung Fu #19 in November 1975, and was born and raised in San Juan, Puerto Rico. When studying at ESU in New York City, he found tiger amulets which were left behind by the Sons of the Tiger. After he tried on the three amulets, it was revealed that he could turn into the White Tiger which gave him superhuman strength and abilities beyond his comprehension.
This effectively kicked off his superhero career in the comics as he has a deep understanding of martial arts and using his strength decided to do some good.
