TOS 59 "Battling the Black Knight!"

Script: Stan Lee

Art: Don Heck

This is the first issue of a revived Captain America series. From now until issue 100, Tales of Suspense will feature Iron Man in a series and then Captain America in his own back up series. Captain America will take over the series at issue 100, and Iron Man will start his own series in Iron Man Vol. 1. 

The black flying horse of the Black Knight comes and provides a means of escape for the prisoner, the Black Knight. Meanwhile at Avengers Mansion, the team waits for the Wasp to change her make up. The team leaves for an event only to leave Iron Man to watch over things. Tony Stark gets an emergency call to come to the factory while Black Knight attacks. Tony doubles over and needs a recharge. Everyone is worried. The light go dark, and Stark manages to reach his private office. He recharges and adds extra power from his belt pods, a new storage area for more transistors. He recharges twice as fast now and heads to the fight. Iron Man rips up steel tentacles and avoids a shearing beam and carries off the top of a building falling on the workers. As Happy cannot get into the private office of Tony Stark (the door and walls are made of steel) last seen very sick, he heads out on the ledge and is captured by the Black Knight. Iron Man is then attacked with energy draining discs. Iron Man fakes his demise as he spins toward the ground shaking off the discs and saving Happy Hogan. Iron Man flips the flying horse and forces Black Knight to drop his lance in order to be rescued. Iron Man goes to the office and lets Pepper and Happy in saying that Stark left in a hidden exit and left him in charge.
