Return of the Jedi Weekly #83
In "Bronson's Brain!", Stan Lee and Steve Ditko deliver a clever, offbeat tale of ambition and perspective, as the brilliant but isolated Bronson ventures beyond Earth to a planet of hyper-advanced aliens—only to discover that his genius may not be quite as extraordinary as he believed. With Ditko’s distinctive art and Simek’s crisp lettering, this 1985 Marvel UK weekly captures a rare moment of quiet sci-fi introspection. The cover by Tom Palmer perfectly captures the story’s mix of wonder and irony.

Bronson, an incredible genius upset that no one on earth can match his tremendous intellect, builds a space ship and travels to a planet of highly advanced aliens. After the aliens test Bronson, they determine that his intelligence is so low compared to their species, that the earthling must be imprisoned for his own safety.
