Synopsis
  • Doctor Strange examines Wanda, who is in the last month of her pregnancy, and she is fine, although rather big, Strange assures her that she is not having twins, but needs to take it easy. Peter Parker shows up to take photos of Wanda and the Vision and their home for a feature in Now Magazine, as J. Jonah Jameson wants to show that not all super heroes are a menace like Spider-Man, but normal people. Holly Ladonna comes over for some more magic tutoring from Wanda, while the Vision walks Peter to the bus stop. On the way, they bump into Glamor and Illusion, whom Peter claims to be fans of, and takes photos, while Illusion contemplates telling Vision that he and Glamor are high society jewel thieves, but decides against it. They also run into Norm Webster, whom the Vision is very cold towards. Returning home, the Vision is attacked by the Toad, now calling himself the Terrible Toad-King and sporting toad-like armor. Peter, who had no money for the bust, swings by in his Spider-Man costume and is confused as to why his “Ally” Mortimer Toynbee is attacking the Vision. The Toad “hops” away, and the Vision and Spider-Man compare their stories on him. They try to find the Toad, but he finds them, and attacks them, eventually knocking them both out, before departing to find Wanda. Wanda hears a noise outside and Holly goes to investigate. Toad breaks into the house and Holly tries to fight him off, though with little success, as Toad makes his way to Wanda’s room, boasting that he is different now, but when he finally sees Wanda, he is revolted by how “large” she is. Wanda points out that she is actually pregnant, and eventually takes Toad down, without exerting herself. The Vision and Spider-Man show up in time to capture the Toad, who “hops” away, after Spider-Man gives him another pep talk. Spider-Man decides to take the Toad more seriously, and tells Wanda that she is some kind of lady being able to handle herself that well.
