TOS 50 "The Hands of the Mandarin!"
Script: Stan Lee
Art: Don Heck and Ray Holloway
We see in Communist China, the Mandarin in his castle is being approached by four soldiers of the government. The Mandarin who is feared brings them in in a miraculous way. General Ho Lee attempts to ask the Mandarin for the secret to nuclear power and the power of his rings. He scoffs at them then threatens them if they don't leave in 60 seconds. Meanwhile, the United States Army approaches Iron Man to find out about the Mandarin, so Iron Man takes off to Red China. Iron Man is attacked at the castle of the Mandarin, and he easily defeats the personal guard. But, then the Mandarin captures Iron Man with a giant magnet. Iron Man escapes closing in walls. Then Mandarin fires his paralysis ray, but Iron Man's chest beam dispels it. Mandarin nullifies one of Iron Man's beams. Iron Man finally succumbs to the ten rings realizing there is a power on each finger. Mandarin toys with Iron Man chopping an iron bar in half with his bare hand. About to finish him off, Iron Man calculates the wrong angle for Mandarin to hit and moves to that angle. Mandarin hits him, and he collapses in pain. Iron Man escapes the castle and catches a ride home.
