the woods of northern Massachusetts in their search for John Jameson;
the werewolf that attacked them is roped and sedated by the
silver-armored Moonhunter from his sky-craft. Cap takes his Sky-Cycle
in pursuit but his foe shoots the craft down, then fires bullets
into Cap's chest. Moonhunter delivers the captive werewolf to the
laboratory of Dr. Nightshade....
Back in New York, Dr. Kincaid diagnoses
the stricken Dennis (D-Man) Dunphy with selective amnesia caused by
his being submerged in Arctic waters (issue #349); Jarvis is
concerned about him and his prospects for recovery....
Dr Nightshade informs her master,
Dredmund Druid, about the arrival of an unknown werewolf. Dredmund
claims it was drawn there to Starkesboro by the reconstituted
Moonstone which is attracting other lycanthropes. Outside, Wolverine,
also investigating the werewolf killings, is attacked by the furry
Night Patrol and it takes four blasts from Moonhunter's shotgun to
put him down....
Cap and Dr. Druid, both recovered from
their earlier injuries, soon arrive in Starkesboro on the trail of
Moonhunter and find themselves surrounded by dozens of werewolves....
