In this episode:

Mike and Ed discuss the \\u201cOne Day War\\u201d with Dr. Doom and Latveria. Is this how all future wars will be fought - by destroying our ability to operate factories or use electronics? The Fantastic Four saved us this time, but what is to stop another attack? Should we take the war to Doom\\u2019s homeland? Is there a defence against this new type of attack? Or is our only defence an army of super-powered individuals fighting as \\u201cchampions\\u201d?

In this issue:

The Fantastic Four are on the lookout for super-powered despot Dr. Doom. He eludes them, hiding in plain sight (somewhat), and then sends strange anthropomorphic floating creatures that are impervious to the Four\\u2019s powers, and are mainly sent to just irritate them. Dr. Doom then kidnaps the Thing\\u2019s girlfriend Alicia Masters, and also demands a post in JFK\\u2019s cabinet. JFK refuses to back down, which leads to Dr. Doom messing with their defence system. The Fantastic Four are tasked with bringing Doom down, and after a hard fought battle, they succeed, with the Invisible Girl taking Doom down through guts, guile, and strength.

Assumed before the next episode:

The world has learned of the tyranny of Dr. Doom, and are grateful for the Fantastic Four\\u2019s assistance in defeating him and restoring relative peace to the world.

This episode takes place:

After Doom has been defeated.
