Synopsis

Iron Man breaks into his own factory in order to repair and recharge himself while on the run from the law. However, he is interrupted by the arrival of a surprising enemy.Iron Man Story - "When Fall the Mighty!"In the previous issue, Iron Man was confronted by Namor just after battle with Namor's enemy Krang, who weakened Iron Man enough that he has to recharge his armour. Namor starts punching Iron Man, saying about how he's his enemy, whilst Iron Man can only try to work a way to recharge his armour. Iron Man decids that if he can outsmart Namor, he may be able to reach his other set of armour, which is recharged. By begging Namor not to throw him into a certain room, Iron Man manages to trick Namor into taking him to the other set of armour.

Since Iron Man inadvertantly caused Namor to lose Dorma, he then followed him back to his factory, which is where this issue started. Namor then notices that his strength is weakening after being away from water for so long, and flies away to the water. Iron Man then comes out of the room just after Namor leaves. By now, the police have heard the noise that Namor and Iron Man have been making, and so burst into the room, looking for the cause of the noise.Meanwhile, Namor has flown to the water, and has been returned to his full strength. He then leaves the water, thinking about how easily he'll defeat Iron Man now....(This story is concluded in Tales to Astonish #82)Captain America Story - "He Who Holds the Cosmic Cube..."Captain America is wandering around the city when he hears a loud explosion from the sky. He looks up to see a high-altitude plane, which...
