Biography
Martin Ramsey was a member of the United States Army, having achieved the rank of General. He became a major player in the nation's desperate defensive actions against the efforts of the psychopathic undead teenager known as Evil Ernie, whose efforts prompted the outbreak of the Psycho Plague. Ramsey learned that doctors Leonard Price and Mary Young were experts on Evil Ernie and sanctioned them against their will as consultants. Not caring for being locked up, the two managed to escape, turning the tables on Ramsey, and imprisoning him in the same cell that they had escaped from. Ramsey spent fifteen days and nights in the prison fighting off various ghouls. He eventually escaped and tracked down the two scientists, securing them inside of his base.

General Ramsey left Washington, D.C. and went to New York City where Evil Ernie had just evaded the barricades and had begun terrorizing Times Square in the midst of the New Year's Eve party. Ramsey used the mecha-armor known as Battletank-1 to combat Ernie. During their fight, he accidentally speared a pedestrian with a grappling line from the armor. He blasted Ernie several times with his arm cannon, which blew a hole into him, but Ernie's supernatural recuperative abilities allowed him to regenerate.

Ernie latched onto one of the armor's boot thrusters, and Ramsey took off high into the air. The flames from the thruster caused Ernie to catch on fire, but he recuperated from this as well. Landing atop a building, Ernie threw the New Year's globe at Ramsey, knocking him off the roof and sending him plummeting to the ground. The armor suffered severe damage, which caused a feedback malfunction on the satellite. The malfunction caused extensive internal damage that shifted the satellite out of its orbit and it crashed back down to Earth in the center of Times Square.
