In "If This Guilt Be Mine--!", Iron Man, battered from his clash with the Black Knight, struggles to summon Pepper Potts for help. With dwindling power, he relies on her to drive him to the Stark factory for a recharge, while Senator Byrd looms with threats of a subpoena. As Pepper watches over him, a mysterious experiment on Happy Hogan goes dangerously wrong—transforming him into the berserk Freak, who escapes into the city, leaving Iron Man to face the consequences. Written by Stan Lee and illustrated by Adam Austin with inks by Gary Michaels, this gripping tale features a cover by Jack Kirby and Sol Brodsky.
