Aaron Stack (Earth-19121) VS Ab Waltin (Earth-616)
Aaron Stack (Earth-19121)
Machine Man's history is presumably similar to his Earth-616 counterpart's. When intelligent zombies called the Respawned invaded Earth, a S.H.I.E.L.D./A.I.M. coalition assembled a team of robots called the Ennows to fight the zombies as machines couldn't be zombified. Machine Man was one of the robots. However, after the population of humans fell to almost nothing, the Ennows were left to own devices and and began fighting for themselves against the zombies. When a group of human survivors were attacked by a horde of Respawned, the Ennows, including Machine Man, fought them off. A fight almost broke out between the survivors and the Ennows, but it was quickly broken up. The survivors were then taken into Ennow custody with Machine Man ordering them taken to the holding bays. The Ennows planned to turn the survivors into machines through exposure to the Transmode Virus. However, the process was interrupted by a group of zombies consisting of superhumans with superhuman strength that were able to break through the Ennows' home, the Phalanx Wall. Machine Man was ripped to pieces by the zombies.

Ab Waltin (Earth-616)
A mountaineer, Ab lived on Hollow Bluff with his wife Ella. The supernatural location drew the Legion of the Doomed, who forced the Waltins to take in one of their agents -- mystically disguised as a newborn human -- as their child as a cover for its serial murders. Fearful for their lives, Ab did his best to dissuade the curious, but was nevertheless murdered by the Legionnaires when the Fiery Mask uncovered the truth. His murder was reported in the newspaper following the Fiery Mask's showdown with the demons. Search this site for: Ab Waltin ยท Ab Waltin (Earth-616).
