Synopsis for "Multiverse Madness!"

Moon Shade explains that he has stolen power from Franklin Richards and the Franklin Richards doppelganger. This allows him to absorb most of the Moon Knights in the multiverse. Moon Shade travels to various alternate universes to drain the remaining counterparts, with Marc Spector in tow. He fights and kills at least seven counterparts. Spector deduces that Moon Shade is vulnerable to adamantium, and manages to destory the doppelganger with his electrified bo staff.
