Synopsis
With the 24 hour time period to find a new suitable world for
Galactus to consume running out and members of the Fantastic Four
captured two different alien worlds, the High Evolutionary has become
desperate to prevent Galactus from consuming his Counter-Earth that he
has decided to take matters into his own hands and battle Galactus
himself. Sue, wanting to save her teammates tries to convince the High
Evolutionary to save them from capture first, however he refuses to do
so. Sue then turns invisible and tries to teleport herself to one of the
worlds the other FF members have gone too, but instead finds herself
transported to the third world that the Evolutionary presumed to be a
dead world. Trapped there with almost no air, Sue realizes that unless
someone rescues her she is going to suffocate on the planet once her air
runs out.
While on the planet Mekka, Reed and Ben are prisoners of Torgo
who does not wish for them to leave because he believes that they will
reveal the location of their planet to Galactus. He explains to them
that he and his mechanical race were invented by humanoid creatures that
once inhabited their planet to be their workers. When a plague wiped
out their inventors, Torgo and the other Mekkans took over their world
and converted it into a mechanical world for them to live out their
sentient lives. Retiring to the Tower of Life, Torgo goes to prepare
Reed and Ben for the Ultimate Resolution: Having been programmed never
to harm an organic being he will soon change them both into Mekkans in
order to protect his world.
Left alone, Reed deduces that the Elektro-Clamps they are stuck
too are attuned to magnetize Ben’s exo-suit and not his human form
inside. Telling him of a release mechanism inside his gloves, Reed
instructs Ben how to get free from his suit so he can shut off the
Elektro-Clamp. Their escape is soon discovered and they are forced to
fight off Mekkan guards. During the fight Reed realizes that he can no
longer stretch his right arm and has to confide in Ben that he is slowly
losing his powers. Fighting their way into the Tower of Life they have
to face off against Torgo, who tells them that he has different
programming that allows him to take a human life, something he is
willing to do if the two humans do not surrender to being turned into
Mekkans. While Ben and Torgo battle it out, Reed rushes off to the main
control room and turns off the Mekkans power source, causing them all to
deactivate. With the battle over the duo do not feel right having
deactivated an entire planet of living beings and Ben reactivates the
Mekkans power source. Restored to life once more Torgo realizes why the
two humans are noble enough to keep the location of his planet safe and
agrees to let them go free. With no means of getting off the planet
Mekka, Reed and Ben realize that despite their newfound freedom they are
trapped on Mekka.
While on the medieval planet, Johnny and Gorr find themselves
locked in a dungeon awaiting their fate. When the king of the realm
comes to mock them, Gorr suggests that he pit himself against his
greatest challenger in combat. If Gorr wins, he and Johnny are to be set
free, if he loses they forfeit their lives. Decked out in a suit of
armor and given a horse and javelin, Gorr goes up against their best
knight and easily defeats him in battle. The king then orders a new
competition: Gorr is to battle the dragon that they faced earlier in a
battle to the death. When the dragon suddenly breaks free, the king
orders it killed and much to Johnny and Gorr’s surprise the kings men
pull out laser weapons and shoot the creature dead. The supposedly
medieval people then reveal that they are merely just shape-shifting
Skrulls living out another Earth inspired fantasy and now that the
planets entire population of dragons have been wiped out they have no
need to continue the charade and they leave Gorr and Johnny on the
planet in the same problem that Reed and Ben have: They cannot leave
this world without being rescued.
Back on Counter-Earth, the 24 hour period has elapsed and
Galactus has appeared over New York City to consume the world, sending
the entire planet into a panic. The military sends the air force to try
and stop Galactus but it has no avail. Before Galactus can proceed
further, the High Evolutionary — having increased his size to match
Galactus — has arrived to fight for Counter-Earth to the death.

Synopsis
Story continued from Super-Villain Team-Up #14….
The only ones unaffected by Dr. Doom’s neurogas, Magneto and the Beast
have sought out the aid of the Champions in the hopes that they too may
be free from Dr. Doom’s control, they are wrong. As a result they are
attacked by the Champions, who attack savagely. Even the Beast old X-Men
comrades the Angel and Ice Man attack the two mutants. Soon finding
themselves out numbered and over powered, Magneto erects a metal sphere
around himself and the Beast and they make their escape, however
Darkstar forms a dark mater sphere around the Champions and the group
goes after them.
Meanwhile, in Washington D.C., Dr. Doom has taken advantage of
his neurogas to bend the wills of President Jimmy Carter and his staff.
However, their over eagerness and praise of Doom begins to grate on the
monarch who angrily storms out of the room. Outside, Doom is greeted by
the sudden arrival of the Hulk, who lands on the White House’s property,
and Doom finds that the Hulk bends just as easily to his will as
everyone else on Earth. Just then Magneto and the Beast arrive to
confront Doom.
Doom sics the Hulk on them, however Magneto is able to wrap the
Hulk up in a military tank with his magnetic powers. However their
advantage over Dr. Doom soon ends when the Champions manage to catch up
with them and their battle starts anew. At first, they get the advantage
by tossing the Hulk at Hercules, making the mindless brute attack the
Champions. At that moment the effects of the neurogas wear off on Ghost
Rider (as he doesn’t need to breath in his Spirit of Vengeance form.)
The Ghost Rider joins Beast and Magneto in their fight against Doom, the
other Champions, the Hulk and the security forces stationed at the
White House.
In a one-on-one battle against Dr. Doom, Magneto has the upper
hand at first, however Doom’s inventions manage to reverse Magneto’s
power against him sending the mutant terrorist flying away from the
battle. This leaves Dr. Doom open to attack from the Ghost Rider, who
unleashes his hell-fire on the Latverian monarch. The pain causes Doom
to remove his mask, leaving him open to the neurogas himself. His
exposure to it makes him unable to command anyone. With everyone free
from Doom’s control, Magneto and the Hulk both flee the scene leaving
the Champions and the Beast to deal with Dr. Doom, who has apparently
gone insane.
