"The Making of a Madman" - With the Man-Thing seemingly killed by the Fool-Killer, the father of the family the Man-Thing saved from alligators (whose helicopter was shot down by the Fool-Killer), tries to attack the Fool-Killer. The Fool-Killer then eliminates him with his laser-pistol, before fleeing the scene. However, the Man-Thing rises out of the swamp, fully healed from the Fool-Killer's previous attack. As the Fool-Killer rushes to his truck which operates as his mobile base of operations, he almost drives Richard Rory and Ruth Heart off the road. Rory, one of the Fool-Killer's targets gets by unnoticed by the Fool-Killer, but Richard recognizes him and speeds away. Inside his truck, the Fool-Killer confronts the preserved corpse of Reverend Mike, his inspiration to become the Fool-Killer, which causes him to recount the events which led him to his destined mission.
