History
Ace Killer was a creation of Yapool in an attempt to kill Ultraman Ace. By luring the Ultra Brothers onto a desolate planet and forcing Ultraman Ace to battle the chouju, Barabas on Earth. Ace Killer was released and absorbed the powers and weapons of the Ultra Brothers. With their power, Yapool released a robot replica of Ultraman Ace to demonstrate Ace Killer's power. Witstanding a Metallium Ray, Ace Killer used a barrage of Ultraseven's Emerium Ray and Ultraman's Specium Ray to weaken the robot until it destroyed it with a variation of Zoffy's M87 beam.

Eventually, Ultraman Ace returned to try and rescue his brothers, but was ambushed by the powered-up Ace Killer. With the Ultra Brothers' powers, Ace Killer easily overpowered Ultraman Ace until the Ultra Brothers used the last of their energy to replenish Ultraman Ace. With their combined energy, Ultraman Ace hurled a concentrated ball of their energy (the attack known as Space Q) at Ace Killer, destroying Yapool's weapon against him and releasing his comrades.

Trivia

 * Ace Killer's name comes from the term "Ace" in baseball, which is considered to be the best pitcher.
 * This is the only series in which Ace Killer carries his sai, series-wise. In the video games, he uses it as a weapon.

Ultraman Mebius
Ace Killer returned in episode 43 of the series, Ultraman Mebius as Mebius Killer (メビウスキラー - Mebiusu Killa).

In this series, Yapool created a 2nd Ace Killer and used it as a weapon to battle Ultraman Mebius with. With the assistance of the gaseous monster Gadiba, Gadiba used the knowledge of Ultraman Mebius's previous battles and enhanced the Ace Killer with it, transforming it into "Mebius Killer." Mirai transformed into Ultraman Mebius and battled with Yapool's weapon, but like Ace, he was overpowered by Mebius Killer's attacks, all of which mimicked Ultraman Mebius's signature attacks. Despite being overpowered, with the assistance of a friend of Mirai's, Mebius continued to battle with Mebius Killer and eventually destroyed it with the Mebium Dynamite.
 * A fan redesign of Mebius Killer was created as part of a contest for Bandai's Toyline. The redesign is known as " Kabuto the Killer ." In contrast to his original appearance, Kabuto the Killer had crab-like claws and his body design resembles that of a Samurai.
