Synopsis for "Chapter One: Tyranny in Timely"
In the town of Timely in the Valley of Doom, Red Wolf attempted to blow up Mayor Fisk's dam, so the latter's men attempted to lynch the former before Sheriff Steve Rogers intervened, although Red Wolf was still incarcerated. When Turk Barrett threatened to shoot a drunk Anthony Stark, the drunk man and the sheriff fought him and Fisk's other men. Later, a crowd gathered outside of Fisk's house before he received a phone call from Governor Roxxon. The next morning, Ben Urich drank while Bullseye, Elektra, Grizzly, and Otto Octavius arrived in Timely.
