Biography

Early Actions

Milo hired a man to free Ben Turner from prison by smuggling his claws in inside his body. After Turner's escape, Armitage met with him and promised him $10 million to break into Malcolm Merlyn's vacant mansion and steal his prototype Markov Device. Turner did so, despite interference from The Arrow and Roy Harper, and met with Armitage to hand the device off to him. However, the Arrow and Harper arrived, and despite Armitage's best efforts, they destroyed the device and Armitage was arrested.

Armitage later sent men to attempt to buy top-secret files of A.R.G.U.S. agents off of Mark Shaw but the transaction was interrupted by Oliver and John Diggle.

Operation Genesis

Two years later, Armitage was seen among the high-ranking members of H.I.V.E. who were considered Damien Darhk's partners. Armitage sarcastically congratulated Darhk on becoming famous when Oliver revealed that Darhk was the mastermind behind H.I.V.E. and the Ghosts. Milo and the other "Partners" accompanied Damien when he nearly executed John Diggle, Felicity Smoak, and Thea Queen, but when Malcolm Merlyn and Laurel Lance interrupted, Armitage and the Partners fled. Later, Damien showed Armitage and the Partners his progress with their operation, "Genesis".

Armitage and the rest of the H.I.V.E. board of leadership later held a meeting, discussing Ruvé Adams' run for mayor of Star City, as well as Quentin Lance's betrayal.

When Damien was imprisoned, Merlyn visited him, informing him that Armitage and the other partners had decided to move ahead with Genesis without him.

Armitage and Phaedra Nixon were present at H.I.V.E. headquarters when Damien returned, flanked by Merlyn, Andy Diggle, and Michael Amar, as he'd been freed from prison by the three. Nixon and Armitage were worried that Damien would seek vengeance for allowing him to rot in prison. However, Darhk seemed very calm, lulling the two into a false sense of security. Once Darhk learned that Genesis had continued without a hitch even during his imprisonment, he threatened the two, telling them he no longer needed them. Armitage promptly attempted to shoot Darhk, who used his telekinesis to deflect his bullet and sent it back into Armitage's forehead, killing him. His body was later found by Team Arrow.
