"The Beginning of the End!" 

Script: Archie Goodwin

Art: George Tuska/Johnny Craig

This is one jam-packed issue! First appearance of Madame Masque! First appearance of Midas! Guest appearances by assorted Avengers! The return of Morgan Stark! But the coolest part is how rapidly and frighteningly Tony Stark loses his identity at the hands of a crafty Life Model Decoy! Nice rain-soaked chase sequence art. What a set-up for next issue!

Appearances: Iron Man (Tony Stark), 1:Madame Masque, 1:Midas, Tony Stark LMD (impersonates Iron Man), Edwin Jarvis, Morgan Stark, Janice Cord, Alex Niven
