So, I was thinking, now that we're not working together, I might give ya a ring sometime.
You realize I've seen you pretty pink and naked?
Sure. Figured that was a selling point.
Shut your gob and walk me out.

Synopsis for 1st story
Morbius shares his suspicions that he is the outbreak’s source with Elsa as he confirms them in his lab. The maddened monsters outside break down the lab’s wall, but Morbius dictates a security command, bringing up a force field to keep the infected citizens at bay. Manphibian leaps down at them from inside the base, suffering from the virus’ effects before Elsa sedates him, brings him to the med bay and straps him down. She is surprised by Jack Russell, now recovered and awake. She updates him on the situation and gives him a hug before pulling away. Morbius tells them to leave through the portal, intent on building a bomb and destroying Monster Metropolis to contain the threat. Upset by Morbius’ plan, Jack transforms into werewolf form, which brings him under the virus’ influence and causes him to attack his teammates.
The Dimensional Man hears all, and demands to be released before the imminent destruction. Elsa grants his wish, unleashing the prisoner who takes hold of the monsters and leeches their infection, growing large, powerful and quiet. He retreats at Morbius’ command, leaving the Legion cured but with a new problem: if Dimensional Man keeps feeding, he will continue to grow and crush them against the security field, or pose an even greater threat to the outside world. Morbius is adamant their course of action should remain the same, but the others disagree and search for another way forward. They attack the Dimensional Man head on with rocket launchers, and Manphibian is caught up before they can all retreat. Elsa and Jack engage the beast in close quarters combat, and as defeat looms over them, Morbius realizes his influence over the infection and commands it to stand down. Explaining that his subconscious has been controlling the infected all along, he ends the virus’ threat by taking responsibility.
Weeks later, Elsa assists Jack in cleaning up the wreckage around Monster Metropolis. He tells her that it’s her time to go and informs her of an unaffiliated monster menacing Australia. She goes and finds Morbius and Manphibian bickering over the specifics of the Living Mummy’s regeneration process, bidding the mummy well and receiving Morbius’ sincere gratitude. Telling them to sod off, she walks out and encounters Jack once more, telling him to walk her out.
