In "Captured by J. Jonah Jameson!", Spider-Man finds himself trapped in a web of deception when J. Jonah Jameson, ever the relentless publisher, turns his spotlight on the web-slinger with a personal vendetta. Written by Stan Lee and illustrated by Jack Kirby, with inks by G. Bell and letters by S. Rosen, this 1973 UK weekly installment delivers a tense, character-driven tale where fame and fear collide. The cover by Rich Buckler and Mike Esposito captures the moment of high-stakes confrontation, setting the tone for a story where the Daily Bugle’s influence stretches far beyond the front page.

In "The Return of Zarrko, the Tomorrow Man!", Loki manipulates Odin into stripping Thor of his strength as punishment for his love for Jane Foster, then revives the memory of the time-traveling villain Zarrko.
