They are led by a huge man named Dr. Humperdinck Dumpty, who has his thugs rain sandbags on Spidey, knocking him off the balloon.

When an announcement appears in the Bugle about a priceless jewel collection on display at a gala, Dumpty - and Spidey - make plans to attend. Dumpty & his henchmen release a laughing gas that distracts the guests, and the thieves grab the jewels. Spidey, however, has his own gas mask that he accosted from one of Dumpty's henchmen, and sprays I.B.P. - Instant Banana Peel - over the floor, which traps the fleeing thieves so police can arrest them.

Unknown to anyone, Atlantian deploys the moonbeam to create an earthquake, which draws attention from the armed forces. The army turns its tanks on Atlantian's reactor, now at the surface of the water. Atlantian deploys a moonbeam across Manhattan, then encases it in a bubble & sinks the island into the ocean.

The two of them struggle savagely for control of the reactor, until Atlantian threatens to destroy the city by bursting the bubble.

While he & Sue are investigating, the seed suddenly grows hundredfold in size & rolls through the side of the house and into the street, smashing everything in its way.

In an arena, Spidey is forced to fight a huge carnivorous slug called 'Goliath'. He overpowers the huge slug and gets the atomic matter from the generator, then heads back to the Glutz machine to return to the present.

S3.E11 ∙ Specialists and Slaves

Sat, May 30, 1970

Spidey's old enemy from 'Swing City' - the Radiation Specialist - is back! This time, he is much darker - even psychopathic. Following his release from jail, the specialist promptly revisits Manhattan's nuclear reactor, stuns the outdoor soldiers guarding it, and again commandeers the reactor. Realizing Spidey still poses a threat to him, the specialist contrives a scheme using a remote-controlled car to get Spidey off the island. Spidey soon finds out about the specialist's plans and gets back into Manhattan, even as the specialist lifts Manhattan into the sky once again. However, the specialist's radiation has corrupted even the police - usually Spidey's friends - except for Captain Stacey, whose strong mind has immunized him against the specialist's radiation. When Spidey is captured after falling into the streets from an earthquake, Stacey implements a plan to help Spidey escape. Spidey heads to the reactor for another confrontation with the radiation specialist, who tries this time to enslave Spidey himself. Spidey, however, resists the radiation and kicks the specialist in the head. The specialist fires his gun at Spidey, who ducks, and the ray from the gun hits the instruments sustaining the anti-gravity ray, sending the island plummeting back to earth. Spidey must neutralize the specialist & his radiation quickly before thousands of people are killed.
