character biography
Ramon Hernandez was a mercenary who worked for a sinister corporation called the Life Foundation. The Foundation was preparing for the M.A.D. fallout of the Cold War and sought to provide a comfortable life for their wealthy clients after the impending nuclear holocaust. The Life Foundation was experimenting with the Venom symbiote in the hopes of developing superhuman peacekeepers to watch over their imagined fallout shelter utopia. Ramon was one of three men who were chosen as hosts for Venom's forcibly-extracted spawn.
Ramon and his "siblings" were defeated by Venom and Spider-ManVenom: Lethal Protector, his symbiote artificially aged to dust and his body presumed destroyed in a massive explosion.
Ramon and his siblings broke Eddie Brock out of prison and kidnapped him in a last ditch effort to communicate with their alien "others"Venom: Separation Anxiety.
Ramon was killed by Scream with a sonic knife.
What was left of the symbiote combined with his siblings (except Carnage and Scream) to form the new antihero called Hybrid. His status is unknown.
