Comic Description
Giant-sized anniversary issue. The story features a heavy-hitting battle between The Thing and a classic Dr. Doom robot, as well as the 'real' Dr. Doom returning to confront the impostor Kristoff Vernard. This issue is notable for attempting to clarify the confusing continuity of Dr. Doom appearances throughout the 1980s.
