Synopsis
Spider-Man and Captain Marvel hook up to take on a well intentioned but misguided old man who has created a machine to fix earth's overpopulation problem by sending the world's largest cities to another dimension. They are able to turn the power of the machine on itself and make it disappear but something about its power signature has caused Monica to be stuck permanently in her energy form.
