"The Trial Of The Watcher," script by Steve Englehart (plot, script) and Al Milgrom (plot), pencils by Al Milgrom, inks by Klaus Janson; Captain Marvel follows the Watchers' teleportation beam back to their home world; Mar-Vell insists on speaking in Uatu's defense at his trial, but the other Watchers refuse to acknowledge him and imprison him in a stasis field so he can't follow, then leave him in the jungle clearing where they arrived; Mar-Vell and Rick plan to switch in hopes of disrupting the field, but Mar-Vell can't even move his arms enough to clash the Nega-Bands. Instead, they put their minds together in an extension of their newfound ability to switch through will alone and ultimately free themselves from each other as well as the field; Their feat is witnessed from the shadows by a young Watcher named Aron as well as a jungle predator called a Rackcat; The Rackcat attacks as soon as Mar-Vell and Rick separate, forcing Mar-Vell to fend it off before they can search for the trial; The Rackcat pursues them persistently and Aron continues to observe out of fascination.
