Jericho Long a.k.a. "Dickslinger" was a western gunslinger in the mid to late 1800's. He is the great, great, great grandfather of BlackMane and BlackSnake. Jericho Long was a former slave that freed himself and some of his later crew members from bondage of his slave masters in 1856. He would go on to be one of the deadliest gunslingers in the west. Like his distant great great great grandsons, Jericho had a way with the ladies and would often save them from predatory behaviors from men in the towns. He did not like men that brought harm to women and he did not like slave owners and would shoot them on site at many auctions blocks. Jericho served his entire adulthood life as an wanted man and there was once an million dollars bounty for his head.

Fighting Racist Police

Most of Jericho's enemies were corrupt policemen and hostile slave owners looking to collect the bounty on him. One enemy of Jericho in particular was Sheriff Oliver Buck, who was responsible for taking out most of Dickslinger's crew. Jericho and Oliver hated each other guts and would often have public duels in the town's city center, where innocent bystanders would sometimes get shot. However, Sheriff Buck not only wanted Jericho alive, he wanted to put him back in slavery by sending him to another country where it was legal. He is also responsible for placing the million dollar bounty on Jericho's head by aligning with different sheriff's of other towns. Some of those sheriff's would go on to be members of the Ku Klux Klan, as well as officer Buck.

Back in Time With Madam Venom

Although Dickslinger is before the time of most of Black Force members, he is visited several times by Madam Venom, with her ability to make people go back in time in their heads. This occurs whenever BlackMane and his brother BlackSnake are in a battle with each other and Madam Venom is in the middle of it. Madam Venom tries to trick "Dickslinger" several times into killing his distant relative BlackMane, as she tells him that his offspring are failures and a bad representations of his legacy. Dickslinger and BlackMane would engage in several fights before realizing that its all a play from Madam Venom.
