Hit Comics #145

In "Täuschung," a group of prison escapees races across a treacherous planet, desperate to evade capture—only to find themselves ensnared by a deadly game of deception. With danger lurking in every shadow and alliances shifting in a battle of the sexes, their survival hinges on choices that may be more illusion than truth.

In "Die Hände des Marionettenspielers," the Puppet Master manipulates events from the shadows, seizing control of the Thing and forcing him to carry out a dangerous mission. With the Invisible Girl held captive, the Puppet Master sends the Thing and Alicia Masters on a covert infiltration of the Baxter Building, testing their loyalty and pushing them to the edge.

In "Die Dame und das Monster," the Thing, under the Puppet Master's control, is caught in a bizarre twist when Mister Fantastic's experimental potion unexpectedly reverts him back to his human form, Ben Grimm—leaving both his monstrous appearance and the situation's consequences unresolved.

In "Auge in Auge mit dem Marionettenspieler," the Puppet Master orchestrates a daring jailbreak not for freedom, but to demonstrate his power. When Invisible Girl sends a desperate signal to her teammates, the Puppet Master retreats upon facing the united might of the Fantastic Four.
