- The Abominable Snow-King · 20 pages
The Sub-Mariner encounters a giant green furred ape creature called Torg the Abominable Snow-King. Torg has been commanding sea lions to sink ships for him to acquire sailors and supplies in hopes of building an empire in Antarctica. Namor defeats him by covering him in oil and dropping a huge iceberg on him causing him to sink into the ocean.
