Synopsis for "The Golden Gladiator and the Giant!"
Continued from last issue... Iron Man has come to Viet Nam to stop the Communist scientist known as Half-Face. Storming his castle, he has found that Half-Face has just finished reviving the Titanium Man, repairing his armor and altering his body so that he is bigger than ever before.
Watching as Titanium Man has Iron Man on the run, Half-Face reflects on his past: How he was a simple scientist who was devoted to his country and neglected the needs of his wife and child. His life took a turn when a chemical explosion injured him and forced him to become Half-Face, he since left his past life behind.
While Iron Man is continually pounded by the Titanium Man, back in the states, a mysterious visitor comes to Stark Industries and asks to see Tony Stark. Back in Viet Nam, Titanium Man has managed to defeat Iron Man, and so Half-Face orders him to destroy a near-by village that has been sympathetic to the US forces in Viet Nam as a propaganda victory for his masters... This story is continued next issue.
