Marvel Tales #4

In "The Return of the Vulture," the notorious villain breaks free from prison, forcing Spider-Man to confront him despite a sprained arm that leaves him limited to one working hand. With his usual agility hampered, Spider-Man must think fast and rely on clever tactics to stop the Vulture’s latest scheme.

In "Prisoner of the Wizard," the Torch finds himself trapped and framed as a criminal by the cunning Wizard, who orchestrates a public spectacle to discredit him. But when Johnny reaches out to his sister Jo, the scheme begins to unravel in ways even the Wizard didn’t anticipate.

In "The Vengeance of the Scarlet Beetle!" from Marvel Tales #4 (1966), a crimson beetle gains a human-like mind after radiation exposure and hatches a scheme to conquer the world, wielding an army of insects. With Ant-Man’s help—and his control over the ants—the battle for dominance begins.
