                      You ! First of all this issue features Val Mayerik 
                      penciling, you may remember Val from way back in Fear 19 
                      (you know Howard's very first appearance).  Howard is lounging upon the rooftop whining about the fact 
                      that Beverly is married to Dr. Bong, when all of a sudden 
                      he is attacked by a giant package of salt with ape like 
                      arms and legs. The salt container begins to season Howard 
                      (pouring salt on his wounds) and then jumps off the building 
                      falling to its death!?! And then again suddenly Howard is 
                      attached by a giant housefly, and must destroy it with a 
                      handy acoustic guitar. He turns and then is confronted by 
                      Dakimh the Enchanter (or rather his ghost) and the Man-Thing. 
                      Dakimh informs Howard that its time to fulfill his destiny 
                      and before Howard can say anything they are transported 
                      away. Then were treated to a reunion of most of the characters 
                      from Man-Thing #1 including Korrek the Barbarian and Jennifer 
                      Kale. This time our crew must fight the Demon child of Sombra, 
                      Bzzk to save the universe from Spiritual Anesthesia. Dakimh 
                      informs our heroes that Howard is in charge and leaves the 
                      warriors. Well Howard wants nothing to do with this and 
                      insteads goes to the kitchen of Dakimh castle to find something 
                      to eat. Howard is attached by a giant pickle and must be 
                      rescued by the Man-Thing. Just at this moment Bzzk shows 
                      up with a capture Jennifer Kale. Got all that, I didn't 
                      think so.
