The guards are ordered to kill Iron Man and Firebrand, NOT by the Black Lama, but by a royal addressed as “Baron Rockler.” Just like many other parallel Earths in the Marvel Comics universe, the castle’s inhabitants and guests speak English. Though appearing medieval, the place has advanced technology, including ray-blasting guns and cannon of all kinds. Iron Man and Firebrand find themselves in Michigan on a parallel Earth, the home of the Black Lama, who materializes along with them in an elaborate throne-room of some sort. Iron Man dove in just before the rift closed. To his surprise, the Black Lama had been lying to all his war’s participants and the Golden Globe of Power turned out to be a trap which, instead of bestowing Ultimate Power, opened an interdimensional rift leading back to the Black Lama’s homeworld and taking Firebrand with it.

Firebrand planned to use the power of the Globe to launch his “revolution” and take over the world. The Lama declared Firebrand the unlikely winner after the villain defeated an exhausted Iron Man. That globe, if you’ll recall, was the prize for the winner in the Black Lama’s war pitting several of Earth’s supervillains against each other. Synopsis: This issue picks up where issue number 78 ended last time around – with Iron Man following the escaping Black Lama and Firebrand into the closing dimensional rift caused by the Golden Globe of Power. Kurarkill winds up being torn to pieces by her vengeful human guinea pigs. Needless to say, our hero and the couple escape, Iron Man defeats Quasar and Dr. Kurarkill has been preying on the occasional “guest” ever since.

She set up her laboratory in this lodge on Murder Mountain, so-named for a crazed serial killer who stalked the area long ago. Kurarkill reveals that – typical of so many mad scientists – she was laughed out of the scientific community for her theories and condemned for her inhumane treatment of her experimental subjects. Iron Man falls in battle and is imprisoned in electrical stasis fields alongside Keith and Carrie.

The mad doctor also mutates human victims into backward, apelike, caveman beings.

Our hero battles an enormous bald Hulk-sized creature called Quasar, Kurarkill’s lone success thus far in her attempts to evolve apes into humanoid paragons of strength and intelligence. Kurarkill, the supervillainess who uses the lodge as a cover for her experiments on human guinea pigs, tries to make Keith and Carrie her next victims. Overnight, Tony has to become Iron Man when Dr. As the torrential downpour continues, Tony and his passengers are turned away at five motels due to no rooms being available.Īt last, a creepy lodge atop Murder Mountain (yes, really) takes them in. He drives back to pick up the couple (Keith and Carrie) and their cat as well as their belongings. With the car inoperable now, Iron Man flies to the nearest town, switches back to Tony Stark and rents a car. Along the way, in western Pennsylvania, he comes to the aid of a man, a woman and their pet cat whose vehicle was pinned under a falling tree. Synopsis: On a rainy night, Tony Stark, clad in his Iron Man armor, is flying back to New York from Cleveland, where he continued refashioning his company now that he will no longer be doing munitions work. This one is set AFTER Iron Man’s final run-in with the Black Lama, presented below. NOTE: Before moving on to the conclusion of the long-running Black Lama storyline, Marvel’s editors had to apologize yet AGAIN for the next issue not being ready and a fill-in story having to be run in its place.
