Starring Spider-Man, The X-Men and Ka-Zar!

Tanya Anderssen arrives at Warren Worthington III's sanctuary with news that her lost love, Karl Lykos, may be alive in the Savage Land and she asks the high flying Angel to come with her to investigate. J. Jonah Jameson assigns photographer Peter Parker (a.k.a. the Amazing Spider-Man) to tag along on the Savage Land expedition and bring back a juicy story for the Daily Bugle. Things go sour fast and our heroes are soon captured by the Savage Land Mutates. Brainchild devolves Angel and Spider-Man into hideous monsters and sends them out to battle Ka-Zar and the Fall People.

Luckily, the Uncanny X-Men arrive in the Savage Land. They also engage in battle with the Mutates, with similar results. Now, with the rest of the X-Men captured and at the mercy of the sinister Sauron, it is up to Angel and Ka-Zar to mount a rescue.

Mutants, spider-men, and dinosaurs, its going to be a ruckus time in the Savage Land tonight!
