Synopsis

Mangeto is boasting about how he has defeated the X-Men, and watches Professor Xavier, Marvel Girl, Cyclops, Angel and Beast as they float upwards in his balloon trap, which is carrying them high up into the sky. He then proceeds to boast about how he defeated them, flaunting his mangetic powers to lift up the mansion and then place it back down, and then make their metal objects fly around.The doorbell rings and it is the Angel's parents, coming to check up on their son. He lets them in, and sends them upstairs until he wants to use them again. He later uses them to attempt to take their DNA and create more mutants. At the hospital, the doctors are trying to treat a sickly Iceman. And, up in the balloon, Professor X and the X-Men break free of their bonds and try to think how to get down.Professor Xavier discovered that Magneto had manage to escape from the Strange planet, after being capured in X-Men #11, by using an old spaceship he found there and power up with his magnetic powers.Professor Xavier then psionically forced Iceman awake and pits him against Magneto. Iceman arrives and stops his machine for now, and fights with Magneto, not making much progress. Cyclops frees the X-Men and they arrive just in time to save Iceman from being defeated by Magneto.The Stranger returns and attempts to kidnap Magneto again, and does so succesfully. After destroying Magneto's artificial mutants and getting better, all the X-Men sit down to have dinner with Mr. and Mrs. Worthing, the Angel's parents. All is well.
