History
The sheriff of Jude, New Mexico. Martin knew that criminal physician Dr. W. Lee Benway was hiding a local villa, 10 miles north of Jude; and he knew that Benway had captured fugitive Johnny Yen; Martin was Benway's accomplice.[1]
When the Hulk reached his town looking for food, Martin tried to stop him with his deputies even shooting at him, but the Hulk escaped by smashing the street and having all the agents fall on their backs. The sheriff ordered cars to follow him, but the car drivers decided to keep their distance.[1]
Soon afterward, bounty hunter Spider-Woman visited Sheriff Martin, on LAPD's Captain Alexander Walsh's recommendation. Spider-Woman had tracked Yen to Jude; and Martin told her that Yen had been in the city and eventually went to a clinic a doctor had in his villa; but Martin then called the doctor to warn him of the incoming heroine. Thou Martin tried to stop Spider-Woman, she escaped and contacted her allies Captain Walsh and Scott McDowell to ask for the Arizona State Patrol, having understood that the local sheriff was an enemy. Benway summoned the Sheriff to help him escape; and when Spider-Woman stopped Benway with a venom blast, the Sheriff shot Spider-Woman, injuring her. The Sheriff intended to kill her by a point-blank shot, but the Hulk caused an explosion in the villa, and a piece of debris knocked hit the Sheriff. Spider-Woman then knocked him down with a venom blast, and apparently delivered him to the State Patrol.[1]Paraphernalia
