He was relevant at the time, after Dark Design in 1994 he was the ruler of the Hell and was active in several books. Be a good four years later in 1997 that the Ghost Rider story arc, Last Temptation, would happen and thus fuck up Blackheart for all eternity. Poor guy had a wifeu, 4 henchmen and was doing fine, only to get stabbed in the back and the book to get canceled and the story to not get finished for another 7 years.
Really he was fine until that editorial fuckup and after that no one knew what to do with him.
