Synopsis
Following their battle with the Red Skull, Captain America and the Falcon have returned to America. Accompanying Falcon back to his native Harlem, Captain America bids him farewell, and wishes him luck with his new career fighting crime in the troubled part of New York City. Finally back in his own body, Cap decides the first thing he needs to do is speak with Sharon Carter. He considers the fact that Sharon has turned down his offer at a relationship because she is unable to give up her job working for the spy agency SHIELD, however the Star-Spangled Avenger has come up with a compromise. Heading to the barber shop which is secretly a front for SHIELD’s headquarters, Captain America seeks an audience with Nick Fury.
He demands to see Sharon, however Fury tells him that she has been busy pouring herself into her work since Captain America and her broke up and is away on a mission. He offers the fatigued Captain America to sit on a newly developed SHIELD Slumber Seat. Cap complies and the device is activated, it refreshes Cap, however he is unaware that Fury had implanted in his mind to apply for a physical education teachers position at Manning University. That night, in his hotel room, Cap comes across the classified ad and decides to apply for the job.
The next day he arrives at the university and witnesses a rather animated student protest led by Mart Baker. When Renown expert on atomic equations, Professor Paul Fosgrave, attempts to leave a nearby building, Barker entices his protest into violence toward Fosgrave. Steve steps in the way and stops the fight, and upon learning who he rescued introduces himself as Roger Stevens. Later while meeting with the dean of the school, he learns about Mart and how as of recently he has become more of a rabble rouser and becoming more extreme with his protests leading the Dean to fear that there might be a full out riot someday soon.
It proves to happen sooner, as some of the other members of the student union not sold over to Baker’s extreme views tries to talk him out of enticing violence. This leads out to a full out fight between the two factions of students, prompting Steve to bolt off and change into Captain America in order to try and stop the fight. Unknown to Captain America this entire chain of events has been manipulated by MODOK and his minions at Advanced Idea Mechanics as a part of a plot to steal Professor Fosgrave’s most recent atomic equations for their own personal exploitation. As the battle rages on, some A.I.M. agents posing as students run into the school and attempt to kidnap Fosgrave. When Captain America sees that one of the fake students is carrying a high tech weapon he realizes AIM’s involvement and rushes up to stop them from capturing the noted scientist. Behind him is Mart Baker, having also seen the high tech weapon and realizing that he’s been used as a dupe.
Chasing the A.I.M. agents to the roof of the school, Captain America and Baker work together to bring one of the goons down, however the other manages to board his miniature helicopter and attempt to escape with Fosgrave. Taking the other agents gun, Captain America blasts the rotor of the chopper with it and catches Fosgrave as he falls. With the two A.I.M. agents rounded up and turned over the authorities, Fosgrove and Baker make a truce and Baker agrees to be more assertive in his protests. Later, Captain America returns to SHIELD HQ where Nick Fury commends him for a job well done. When Fury asks Cap why he didn’t take the job as a gym teacher at the university, Cap quips that he’s it’s “too tough for an old codger” like him.
Trivia
- Redwing is muzzled in all of his appearances this issue. His master, the Falcon, must have thought this prudent coming from the wilds of Exile Island to the densely populated Harlem area. Redwing must have quickly acclimated as he will soon roam free in the Harlem area.

Synopsis
The X-Men a reeling from the kidnapping of Professor X, which confirms to the team the seriousness the threat of Factor Three means to the group. As the Beast repairs Cerebro (which was damaged in the kidnapping), Cyclops pulls rank to get his fellow teammates to get their heads together while they figure out how to find the Professor. In the meantime, he orders them to rest and relax, but to be ready for action when they are needed. With this, Jean returns to her dorm room at Metro College.
Arriving at the college, Jean learns that Ted Roberts had called for her in her absence and that he needed to speak with her urgently. Knowing that Ted suspects that she is Marvel Girl of the X-Men, Jean places a call to him right away. Calling Ted, she learns that he is at his brother’s research lab and that someone has captured his brother Ralph. He begs her to contact the X-Men and get them to help before abruptly hanging up. Jean contacts her comrades, when Warren takes the call he wakes Bobby up and the two leave to join Jean on their own, not wanting to disturb Hank and Scott’s progress in repairing Cerebro.
They pick up Jean in the X-Plane and they soon arrive at Roberts Research Inc. Ted lets them into the factory. Once inside, Ted tells the X-Men that his brother Ralph had been captured by beings from beneath the Earth. He explains that his brother Ralph had just perfected a new Cobalt based metal alloy that is impervious to damage, when suddenly his lab was invaded by Tyrannus and his Tyranoid’s who had come to kidnap Ralph and exploit his expertise with Cobalt science. Both Ralph and Ted were easily overpowered and Tyrannus escaped with Ralph as his captive. When the X-Men agree to help, Ted takes them to another invention of Ralph’s, an earth borer that is equipped with a Cobalt power source. With the device only fitting three, the X-Men convince Ted to stay behind while they search for Ralph in the cavern below.
Learning the controls, Angel pilots the device down the tunnel dug by Tyrannus and his minions and they find themselves in a subterranean tunnel. Upon their arrival, they are instantly attacked by the Mole Man, who is armed with a disintegration ray. When the three mutants prove too powerful for the Mole Man to tackle alone, he calls his Moloids to deal with them while he flees the scene. The X-Men make short work of the Moloids and follow after Mole Man to learn if he has any connection with Tyrannus. This is playing into the Mole Man’s hands, as he leads them to the River Lethe, which unleashes a gas that causes the three X-Men to be struck with amnesia.
Meanwhile, in the home of Tyrannus, the underground dictator has forced Ralph to create a gigantic warrior robot out of his Super Cobalt alloy so that Tyrannus can use the robot against his foes. As Ralph is putting the final touches on this robot, Cyclops and Beast begin scaling the tunnel down to the underground caverns that is home to both the Mole Man and Tyrannus to search for their comrades. They find the Earth borer and use it to travel through the tunnels (thereby safe from the gas from the River Lethe). The Mole Man has convinced Angel, Iceman and Marvel Girl that they are his slaves. Taking them to his lab, the Mole Man reveals that he has been building a robot of his own which he hopes to use against his foe Tyrannus, and also convinces the forgetful X-Men to fight on his behalf.
Back at Tyrannus’ lair, Tyrannus is preparing to mount his attack against the Mole Man, but takes a moment to first drink from the Fountain of Youth to maintain his youth and vigor. Just then, the Mole Man’s robot attacks his castle, prompting him to order Ralph to unleash the Super-Cobalt warrior that was constructed for him. Tyrannus’ robot defeats Mole Man’s creation and then Marvel Girl, Angel and Iceman attack the Super-Cobalt robot, easily destroying it. This surprises Tyrannus, who doesn’t understand how the robot could easily be defeated, unaware that Ralph sabotaged the robot. With Tyrannus’ guard down, Ralph takes a swing at the monarch, but is easily subdued by the Tyrannoids. As the three X-Men burst into the castle and fight of Tryannus and his minions, Cyclops and Beast arrive at the Mole Man’s castle and break in. There they easily defeat the Mole Man and learn what has happened to their friends.
Rushing to the palace of Tyrannus, Cyclops and Beast use a device to restore their friend’s memories. With Ralph saved, and the Mole Man and Tyrannus defeated, the X-Men deal with the two underground rulers in a most ironic fashion; dumping them near the River Lethe causing the two to lose their memories. With the enemy neutralized, the X-Men and Ralph use the earth borer to return to the surface.
