Reprints: Tales of Suspense #88 - Beyond All Rescue!/ If Bucky Lives...!Captain America is in Avenger's Mansion, when a video of Bucky suddenly appears. Bucky says that he's been held a prisoner for years, and needs Captain America to save him. He says that he's on Seagull Island, and gives the directions, before saying that he has to go. Captain America then leaves in a flying car-like machine of the Avengers', planning to rescue Bucky. Meanwhile, at Seagull Island, Power Man and Swordsman are transported to a secret laboratory hidden on the island, via a floating plastic bubble. A voice from a loudspeaker then tells them that Captain America is coming to the island, and the two prepare for battle against. Captain America's ship is caught in a plastic bubble just like the one which brought Power Man and Swordsman to the island, before being attacked. Although it seems as though he has no chance, he manages to defeat Power Man by ducking below one of his leaps, and punches him as he goes past, adding his strength to Power Man's and knocking him out when he hits the wall. The Swordsman then tries shooting lasers at Cap, but Cap dodges these so that they hit generators behind him, causing a power feedback which knocks out Swordsman. Captain America is then captured by another plastic bubble, and taken to the mastermind of this plot (who isn't revealed to the reader). The villain then says that he is the last sight Captain America will ever see. Tales of Suspense #95 - If A Man Be Stone!/ A Time to Die... A Time to Live!At the start of this issue, Tony Stark returns to his factory to find that it's been broken into whilst he was in Vietnam the past few issues. He and his guards search the factory to find out that the culprit is a young SHIELD agent named Jasper Sitwell. Sitwell explains that Nick Fury has assigned him to guard Stark's factory, as it makes many of SHIELD's devices, and both Tony Stark and Iron Man have gone missing for long periods of time in the past. Whilst Jasper and Tony talk about the arrangement, the Grey Gargoyle manages to break out of prison, before reading about a new super-weapon which Stark Industries is developing. He decides that if he possesses it, he'll be able to stop Thor once and for all and gain his hammer. The Grey Gargoyle then breaks into Stark Industries, turning guards to stone as he goes along. Jasper and Tony both hear the alarms, so Jasper goes off to fight him (as it's one of his duties) whilst Tony takes the opportunity to change to Iron Man. Jasper's attacks are futile, despite his SHIELD weaponry, and so he runs off to contact SHIELD whilst Iron Man tries to stop the Grey Gargoyle. However, despite Iron Man's best efforts, the Grey Gargoyle turns various bits of his armour to stone, before turning the whole thing to stone. Deciding that Iron Man is too dangerous to leave, he takes the immobile statue to the top of Stark Industries, and throws him off.
