History

Not much is known about the Lord of Death, a Nazi sympathizer he would be the inventor of "Di-Namo Fluid". Replacing human blood with this fluid would turn people into mindless zombies that would be unstoppable short of destroying their bodies. His work would attract the attention of Hitler himself who would personally oversee his mission of disrupting the American military effort before they could enter the war.

Stationing himself in the Bowery section of New York, he would lure members of the large homeless population into his lair promising food and work. Instead, he would drain the homeless people of their blood and turn them into zombies with the Di-Namo Fluid. He would unleash these zombies to attack a nearby navy ship being guarded by Steve Rogers and Bucky. Changing into Captain America and Bucky, the two would fight off the zombies. Posing as homeless men, they would be lured into the Lord of Death's lair where they would learn of his plot.

Changing into their costumed identities, they would easily defeat the overweight Lord of Death, knocking him into his own machinery and leaving him for the authorities.

In the late 1950s, the Lord of Death, operated out of a headquarters in Latveria, where Nick Fury and Blonde Phantom invaded, seeking information on a new Nazi movement.
