☆ Be the first to review + Add to your collection — Join freeIn "Banished to Outer Space!", the Thing finds himself unexpectedly cast out into the cosmos, leaving readers wondering just how he’ll make it back—especially with a clue that rhymes with "toaster" now part of the mystery. This 1972 UK edition of The Mighty World of Marvel, written by Stan Lee, features a playful nod to fans with its new letters page and a growing puzzle, all wrapped in a striking cover by Jim Starlin and Joe Sinnott.
In "Banished to Outer Space!", the military enlists Rick to use the Hulk in a secret rocket test, but when Rick is tricked into launching the Hulk into space, he discovers Ross's true plan: to eliminate his enemy for good. Stranded in orbit, Rick must confront the consequences of his actions as the Hulk, now permanently transformed and bound to his will, becomes a force he can no longer control—unless he stays awake to maintain the link.
In "Duel to the Death with the Vulture!", the Vulture’s arrogance knows no bounds—he boldly announces his intent to steal a diamond shipment in front of the police, daring Spider-Man to stop him. With the city on edge and the stakes raised, the web-slinger takes up the challenge, setting the stage for a high-stakes clash between hero and villain.
