Thor quickly recognizes Iron Man as an imposter, and defeats him in battle. The Power Prism returns to Dr. Obatu, who continues his assault against Thor. Tony Stark returns as Iron Man, and handles Dr. Spectrum, sending Thor back to aid the other man in the Iron Man armour. Iron Man eventually defeats Dr. Spectrum, who now has a weakened bond with the crystal. This time, he crushes the crystal under his heel when the battle is over, and Dr. Obatu is taken into custody. Thankfully, Dr. Donald Blake has determined that Eddie March, who was the imposter Iron Man, may yet survive. (Tony realizes it was Eddie's blood clot that likely prevented the Power Prism from gaining full control of his body.)
