The powerful sorceress agrees to help the Fantastic Four's greatest foe! But first he must lead an army of the undead against the knights of the round table! So the battle lines are drawn!

An outstanding issue! Flashback cameo by Cynthia Von Doom. (Notes: The golden avenger and Doctor Doom meet again in Iron Man 249-250.
