Synopsis
Having traveled to the Hidden Land of the Inhumans, Spider-Man allows himself to be captured and brought before Black Bolt and the Inhuman royal family. There he explains of the Avengers being the prisoner of Kang and Zarrko, and his attempt to rescue them. He also tells them how he and the Human Torch stopped a number of Time Bombs from devolving the human race. Presenting one of these devices to them and explaining that it uses a similar radiation as the Negative Zone which once surrounded the Hidden Land, Spidey asks for the Inhuman’s help in using the device to bring them to the future to save the Avengers.
The Inhuman’s agree to help, and with some help from the insane Maximus, they get the device to transport Spider-Man and the Inhuman royal family to the 23rd Century. There they fight through Kang’s and Zarrko’s forces. However, they prove to be no match and all are defeated and the Avengers are freed. Although Zarrko is captured, they soon find that Kang has escaped, vowing revenge some other time.
With the Avengers saved, Spidey, the Inhumans, and the Avengers all return to their own time, where Spider-Man bid’s farewell to the Avengers.
Notes
- The cover image logo of Black Bolt is “Flipped” and recycled Neal Adams artwork from the cover of Amazing Adventures #5.
Trivia
- Iron Man was shown last issue lying de-powered on the floor with a hole in his armor. This issue, at a simultaneous time, he is enclosed in a stasis cube with his armor intact. Obviously an artist’s error. Captain America and the Black Panther were also part of the Avengers team that was captured by Kang, but are not shown this issue.

Synopsis
Daredevil has returned to New York City to find that Foggy and
Candace Nelson are prisoners of the Death-Stalker, who is hoping to lure
Matt Murdock into a trap so he can kill everyone who knows about
Operation: Sulfer. Daredevil attacks Death-Stalker, who then attempts to
flee out the window. When Daredevil follows after the crook, he is
incapacitated by the villain’s “Touch of Death”, however before its
effects can turn fatal, a beat cop happens upon them. When Death-Stalker
turns his attention to the police officer, Daredevil revives and tries
to nab the crook with his Billy-Club, however, the crook dematerializes
and appears on a rooftop vowing that he will be back. Daredevil follows
after Death-Stalker to find that he has lost all trace of the villain.
Deciding to revert back to his civilian identity, Matt Murdock,
Daredevil pays a “visit” to Foggy and Candace. Untying them, he explains
Daredevil’s encounter with Death-Stalker, Gladiator, and the Man-Thing
in Florida and how he just barely managed to save himself, “Murdock” and
Richard Rory from death before coming here after he was tipped off by
Foggy’s phone call that he might be walking into a trap. With the whole
story, Foggy is insists that they get the authorities over the phone,
but in the end he cannot bring himself to turn in his sister.
Meanwhile in San Francisco, Ivan and the Black Widow attempt
fruitlessly to find a source of employment so that they can stop living
out of Natasha’s Rolls Royce after her inheritance had dried up.
Back in New York, Foggy has agreed to hide Candace at Matt’s
hotel room as it would likely be a safer place for her to stay than a
jail cell. While Foggy goes to explain the situation with the District
Attorney, he leaves Matt to keep an eye on Candace. In discussing the
situation with Candace, Matt realizes the potential value of Operation:
Sulfur would bring: In creating monsters that are immune to pollutants,
it could also make them immune to radiation and biological weapons – a
boon for any enemy nation that might wish to purchase the notes.
Slipping out to try and track down the Death-Stalker as
Daredevil, the Man Without Fear deduces that Death-Stalker would be
hiding out in a chemical plant so that he can prove the effects of the
notes. Sure enough, upon searching through the local chemical plant,
Daredevil does find Death-Stalker prepping the plant with his minion
Milo.
Attacking them, Daredevil leads the Death-Stalker in a fight to
the finish which ends with Death-Stalker and Daredevil’s Billy-Club
being knocked into a vat of acid, the club destroyed and Death-Stalker
seemingly killed. Daredevil then swoops down and knocks out Milo,
knocking the crook’s gun and Ted Sallis’ notes into the acid as well,
destroying notes to a weapon that Daredevil thinks that no country
should possess, and destroying any evidence that the government can use
to build a case against Candace Nelson.
Notes
- In this issue, Daredevil’s Billy Club is destroyed. Ivan Petrovich will quickly construct a new one of similar design in Daredevil #117 (in Italy in URC # 163).

- Jake Wyatt
Synopsis
Wicked and macabre allegory on the machine work that displaces the human one, a disturbing story perhaps directly commissioned by Ford and the American industrial association to sensitize the workers to let lay off and redeploy without breaking their balls.
