A weakened Iron Man battles the Black Knight in and around a castle on the outskirts of Washington. Both are injured in a fall.

Disclose Notes: There are no specific credits for this issue. Instead the splash caption reads: "ALL these bullpen buddies had a hand in THIS one: Stan Lee, Roy Thomas, Adam Austin, Gary Michaels, Sol Brodsky, Flo Steinberg and merrie ol' Marie Severin!" As Roy Thomas and others have explained in greater detail this was Roy's first superhero script at Marvel with some plot assistance from Flo and editing by Stan. Sol Brodsky was production manager.
