The story
opens with Giant-Man in his lab chasing a robot double of the Human Top and
failing to nab it. He is so bad that Wasp suggests he give up the superhero
game altogether and devote himself to making love to her….
At the
riverfront, Human Top uses dynamite to blow up a derelict tugboat. Wasp sees it
on the TV news; Giant-Man senses a trap but prepares to go anyway when his lab
is suddenly filled with members of the Giant-Man Fan Club, who seem to mainly
be interested in snapping photos of the Wasp. Hank has to stun them with a
shout so they can go out, Jan regretting leaving all of the adoring men behind.
On their way to the river, they spot the Human Top leaving the Federal Building
and Giant-Man tries again to seize him but can’t. He leads Giant-Man on another
silly chase and the police turn on a fire hydrant, trying to knock the baddie
down with a gush of water but he even evades the Wasp and gets away….
The Human
Top has stolen a set of civil defense plans from the Federal Building,
intending to sell them to the Communists. But Giant-Man and Wasp, working with
the Feds, know the plans are obsolete and also know the whereabouts of the top
Russian spy in town so they set a trap for the Top. After the Human Top calls
the spy to arrange a meeting, Giant-Man captures the spy and goes to the
meeting in disguise. When the Top shows up, Giant-Man grows and tries once
again to capture him. Human Top leads him on another crazy chase but discovers
that the neighborhood has been fenced off by the authorities, containing him.
Giant-Man catches up to him, smacks him to send him off balance, then grabs him
with glue on his gloves. The police take him away and Wasp expresses her
admiration for the huge hero….
