Probably the most recognizable of Ben Wade's gang, barring Charlie Prince, Campos appears and sound like he comes from Mexico or some part of South America. He is one of the remaining few in the gang after the massive gunfight in Contention.

Dan Evans has been shot by Charlie Prince, effectively rescuing Wade. Wade gets off the train and Charlie throws Ben his signature gun, the Hand of God. Now with a name like that, you know the filmmakers are saving it for something. And true to form, Wade has not fired his gun yet in the film.

Wade has developed a great respect for quiet, one-legged Evans and there is a sense that he has a certain disdain for the thuggish actions of his gang. But Evan's shooting will finally see Wade, angry, fire his gun. Wade's lightning fast shots fire into Charlie's chest and then into the heads of the remaining gang members, proving that the nickname the "Hand of God" is very appropriate.

Yay, good to know you guys are still around. More I can cross off the list.

BTW, that line about the guns not being used yet is incorrect. Probably revise to "not been used since the start of the film".

Incidentally, pop out the champagne, this is the 50th Betrayal death ever!
