"The Woman Behind the Man!"
The Sub-Mariner shares a rare moment of fun, frolicking down the fathoms with Dolphins. His gaiety is halted by the sight of a shackled Lady Dorma.
At Doctor Strange's Greenwich Village Sanctum, Nighthawk is savagely struck down by a sinister ailment. The spell that Strange wove to save Kyle Richmond's life after injuries sustained during their first meeting has been mystically undone. Nighthawk is completely paralyzed.
Back in Atlantis, the crowds throng to the apparent resurrection of Namor's eternal love, Dorma. Before long, Namor is soon breast-beating and declaring war on the surface world (again!).
Namor launches another Atlantean invasion. This time striking in, and conquering London, England. The Defenders at first try to reason with the Avenging Son, but it seems his consort is the one pulling the strings.
In his compunction over recent events, Namor suffers a "Crying Game" moment.
