Fictional character biography

Vera Gemini wishes to cause Xenogenesis, which would cause a demon race to be reborn on Earth. As part of this plan Belathauzer takes over the shape of a commander of a US Air Force base. The Defenders, joined by Eric Simon Payne, Devil-Slayer, travel to Gemini's Mexico headquarters. Belathauzer uses his form to trick the Air Force into shooting down the Defenders' plane. They survive the attack and succeed in stopping Gemini. Belathauzer is seemingly knocked back into his own dimension.

In truth, he had managed to stay on Earth. Still in his human form, he targets Devil-Slayer personally. He tricks the hero into meeting him at a bar that is secretly full of demons in human form. Furthermore, he manages to neutralize Payne's psychic powers by drugging his drink. Payne still manages to battle. They are drawn to the mystical realm of "Borders of the Land of the Dead" where several of Payne's dead Defender friends still stood. There, Belathauzer is apparently slain once again. His form is left in that realm.

The demon seemingly returns to taunt Devil-Slayer with hints of his future battle against the Ghost of the Flying Dutchman. Or this might have been Payne's increasing mental instability.
