Avengers #215

« All the Ways of Power »: The Silver Surfer finds the Molecule Man’s discarded wand and proves immune to its power of possession, so the wand instead recreates the Molecule Man’s body. Hearing the Surfer’s origin, the villain decides to emulate Galactus and destroy the planet, and easily imprisons the Surfer. With the Fantastic Four away, the Avengers follow the Surfer’s board to him and confront the Molecule Man under a huge dome in the New Jersey countryside. His power now resides in himself, and with a single gesture he destroys Thor’s hammer, Iron Man’s armor, Captain America’s shield, and the Surfer’s board, then traps all but Tigra in a gigantic crushing machine.
