Biography

Unlike his counterpart on the regular Earth timeline, Platoon Under-Leader Benton was little more than a cruel and ruthless thug. When coming to assist the Brigade Leader, Benton was caught by the Primord Director Stahlman and the infected technicians, and a handful of Stahlman's ooze was rubbed across his face; he then mutated and became one of the creatures in a painful transformation, accelerated by the heat coming from the Earth. (TV: Inferno)

His fate, and indeed the fate of all the others who mutated, is not clear. Despite being able to survive the volcanic disaster, he may have been among the Primords killed by the Republican Security Forces when they partially rebuilt Great Britain's infrastructure to support the government's attempts to evacuate to another Earth.
