Synopsis for "Swamped!"
Todd Rice is visiting his new girlfriend Marcie Cooper
when, to his astonishment, she reveals that she is actually
a Manhunter, and has stolen Molly Mayne Scott's special glasses and adopted a costumed identity as the new Harlequin. When she attempts to recruit Todd to the
Manhunters' side, he quickly departs in anger and disgust.
Shortly afterward, Dan Richards, formerly the super-
hero called Manhunter, who is also Marcie's grandfather,
is visiting Molly. Marcie shows up in her Harlequin identity
and attacks them, aided by Richards's dog Thor, which is
revealed as a Manhunter-created robot. It was Richards
himself who had first involved Marcie with the Manhunters,
unaware until now of their true, evil intentions. Thor is
destroyed as Dan and Molly escape in her car, but Marcie
uses the Harlequin's illusion-casting powers to cause them
to crash. The next morning, at a scheduled Infinity Inc. meeting,
a projected image of Herupa Hando Hu and Nadia Safir
appears and petitions the group to seek out the Floronic
Man, the last of the Chosen, who has escaped from
Arkham Asylum with the aid of a Manhunter. Then
Obsidian stuns the team with his announcement of
Marcie's true identity. A short time later finds four of the teammates and their
charge, Mr. Bones, in the Louisiana bayous, where they
find the Floronic Man and the Manhunter who had posed
as Dr. Wetson, an Arkham Asylum staff member. To his
surprise, Obsidian is easily overcome by the bogus doctor,
while Jade finds her power ineffective against the Floronic
Man. Hourman, Wildcat, and Bones come to Obsidian's rescue, and the Manhunter is destroyed in their battle. Jade, however, is in serious trouble, until Solomon Grundy, who
had recently gone missing from Infinity's headquarters,
suddenly appears and begins battling the plant-man. Even-
tually, Jade is forced to use her power against Grundy to
prevent him from killing Woodrue. The companions then
return to Los Angeles with both Grundy and Woodrue in
tow.
