History

While working one day, Takeo Yakata was visited by two immortals to be evolutionarily advanced, and becomes the cybernetically enchanced Ram. This places him square in the sights of the Manhunters, a race of ancient robots who hate the Guardians. They try and kill him and the others chosen to be advanced. The survivors form a new team and operate independently for some time. For a while, Ram lived on an isolated island with his friends, while they tried to work towards their mission of peace. When Guy Gardner tries to take control of the team, they attempt to resist peacefully and ultimately fail.

Ram and many of the Guardians were absorbed by the entity called Entropy, and they telepathically assisted Hal Jordan in its defeat.[1]

Much later, Ram's picture was shown along with pictures of other superheroes that were kidnapped and killed in Roulette's casino.[2]
