The Man Who Became the Torch!
13 pp · Superhero
Human Torch [Johnny Storm]Wizard [Bentley Wittman]Invisible Girl [Sue Storm]Mister Fantastic [Reed Richards]Thing [Ben Grimm]

In "The Man Who Became the Torch!", the Wizard’s latest scheme takes flight—literally—when he hijacks a revolutionary anti-gravity device to evade capture and stage a string of daring heists. Disguising himself as Johnny Storm, he traps the rest of the Fantastic Four, forcing Reed and Ben to rally and free Sue and Johnny before the impostor vanishes into the sky. As Johnny pursues the fleeing Wizard, the device spirals out of control, sending its pilot hurtling ever higher—into the unknown.

The Possessed!
8 pp · Superhero
Doctor Strange [Stephen Strange]Herr BraunFraulein Lieber

In "The Possessed!", Doctor Strange uses his Earthly Scanner to detect a sinister presence in Bavaria, leading him to a remote village where the townspeople are eerily controlled. As he investigates the supernatural affliction, he uncovers a chilling truth: the possession is the work of alien entities from another dimension, not dark magic.
