The Frost Giant's Daughter" -

"The Fury of the Femizons" -

"The Origin of the Man-Thing" - The huge, powerful and shuffling beast that is the Man-Thing has only vague recollections of his former life. He cannot clearly recall that he was once Ted Sallis, government contractor seeking a super-soldier serum. He doesn't remember the betrayal by the woman he loved for the serum he created. He doesn't remember hiding the only surviving sample the only place he could have: in his own veins. He doesn't remember the way that serum reacted with swamp water to turn him into the Man-Thing he has become.

"Joshua's Burden" -

"The Night of the Looter" -
