Synopsis for "Frederick Fenton's Future"
This story has basically the same plot as "The Last Man on Earth" in Amazing Adult Fantasy #7 just swapping a time machine for a bomb shelter as the 'mechanism of isolation'. The protagonist thinks to himself that he can simply reset the time machine to a period before humanity left Earth, but then realizes in the post-industrial ruins there is no electricity, and so he sets out to build an electrical generator in the years he has left to him.
Notes
- Sequence 1 Defying the Magic of... Mad Merlin! plot by Lee, script by Bernstein (credited as R. Berns).
- Despite his claims in the issue, the "Merlin" featured here is later revealed not the legendary wizard who served in Arthur's court. He is instead a mutated human who later reappears under the name Maha Yogi. He possesses a fragment of the Bloodgem, which grants the wearer immorality. The real Merlin first appeared in Young Allies #11.
- The Thor story is reprinted in Essential Thor 1, Fantasy Masterpieces 8, Marvel Masterworks: Mighty Thor 1
- "Call Her Medusa" reprinted in Fantasy Masterpieces #8.
