Tales to Astonish 1959 #79 - 6.0 - $22.00

Little realizing that Namor is under the control of the Puppet Master, the Army tries to capture him for robbing a bank. After being shot in the arm, Namor seeks the healing power of water and winds up in the Hudson River. There he encounters Lady Dorma who has come to the surface world to retrieve him as the Behemoth has awakened and is menacing Atlantis. They're not aware that the Behemoth is now controlled by Krang. Namor breaks the Puppet Master's hold and returns to his undersea kingdom. Krang contacts the Puppet Master and commands that he make one of his special puppets of someone else.

Zaxon tries to sap the power of the Hulk for his own nefarious ends but ends up getting himself killed in the process. Free once again, the Hulk rips up some train tracks to throw at pesky fighter jets and wouldn't you know that Hercules just happens to be riding in the oncoming locomotive. Hulk and Herc battle to a standstill before the jade giant leaps off to fight another day.
