Nothing was heard from Breeze Barton until he was (apparently brought to the 616 ‘present time’ dimension) drafted by A.R.M.O.R. into a fighting squad to help fight off a coming Nazi Zombie invasion. Barton accepted and became part of the “Ducky Dozen” after witch they where send of into the other dimension through a dimensional travel plane. The team immediately came under heavy zombie fire (as in, the zombies fired themselves towards the plain). Barton jumped out of their plane to shoot any incoming zombies and successfully landed to clear a spot for his team. However when all seems clear, Barton is gutted and torn apart by a zombified Namor the Submariner, killing him almost immediately.
