Synopsis for "Discos and Dungeons!"

Reprint of the 1st story from
Marvel Two-In-One #68

In order to take the Thing's mind off of Alicia Masters, Johnny Storm takes Ben out to a disco to dance it up; however, Ben is not in the mood for doing so. Returning to the bar, they run into Warren Worthington III, aka the Angel, and Johnny leaves Ben with the X-Man while he dances with Candy Southern. When Warren drinks a bad drink, Ben takes him to the men's room, unaware that they are walking into a trap, and they find themselves gassed and secreted out of the dance club.

When Ben revives, he discovers that he and the Angel are inside a castle and have been suspended over a vat of acid. When Angel revives, the two use teamwork to get out of their trap and are greeted by a robot designed to resemble Magneto. The robot advises them that they have been brought to the castle, which has been rigged with deathtraps, by his master to see if they can get out.

Fighting their way through the castle and breaking through all the traps, the Thing and Angel soon enter the throne room and find that it's been designed to look like a mechanical swamp. Greeting them is Toad, who informs the duo that he has gotten into the business of assassinations and seeks to test his set up one of his old X-Men foes. Attacking the Toad, the two heroes are once more forced to go on the defensive against the various devices and death traps in the castle.

During the battle, Toad gets a call from his mysterious benefactor, Mr. A, who demands payment for all the devices ASAP and becomes mortified when he doesn't have the money. Seeing the pathetic Toad crumpled up in a sobbing ball, Angel feels sorry for Toad's plight and offers to pay off his debts. In return, Toad would have to agree to work for the Angel. A few weeks later, Angel takes Thing and Candy back to the castle, which Warren has converted into an amusement park called Toadland, hoping it will encourage the Toad to turn his life around.
