Marvel Two-in-One, Vol. 1 #87B (Marvel Comics 1982)

Marvel Two-in-One, Vol. 1, #87B (1982) delivers a microverse–driven rescue mission anchored by a standout guest appearance: Ant-Man in the starring role of “Menace of the Microwave!” Guest-starring Ant-Man (Scott Lang) with a Fantastic Four cameo, this issue pairs Tom DeFalco’s writing with Ron Wilson on pencils and Chic Stone on inks to shape a tight, action-packed crossover within the Marvel Two-in-One series. Plot at a glance: When The Thing is sucked into the Microverse, Reed Richards calls on Ant-Man—perhaps the only hero who can save his friend—to navigate the perilous dimension and bring him home, setting up a suspenseful hunt across strange environments and clever tech-based challenges. Why this matters to collectors and readers: this entry showcases a mid-80s collaboration between a major Silver/Bronze-age creative lineup, blends personal hero dynamics with a high-concept microverse setting, and features a key Ant-Man appearance outside his solo title. It’s a compact, self-contained story that appeals to fans of the Thing, Ant-Man, and classic Marvel crossovers, as well as those tracing Tom DeFalco’s longer run and Wilson/Stone’s distinctive artwork.
