List of Marvel Family Enemies - Mile-High Mightiest Mongol

Mile-High Mightiest Mongol

Only appearing in Marvel Family #81. Captain Inch Wade is a stubborn officer who is holding a section of Communist Korea's border for 18 months, not retreating one inch. His group is suddenly attacked by an eight-foot tall Asian, who Wade recognises as Mong the Giant. He is knocked out and captured by Mong. Billy reports he was about to be given the Silver Star for not retreating one inch from the Yongpyor setion. The Marvel Family transform and fly to Korea to rescue him and meet Mong the Giant. The Marvel Family hear he leads the attack every day, but see he has grown to 20 feet, as he grows larger each day. The Marvels knock down Mong, who runs away. The Marvels follow, but he has gone, leaving only a Communist soldier, who is questioned by Cap who speaks Korean fluently, and claims he did not see him. The next day Mong is larger than before, but the Marvels hit his foot and again chase him away, this time to the forest, but he is again gone. The Marvels foolishly change into the kids to sneak through enemy line and hide all the next day.

Mong returns after another raid, is hungry, and takes dwindling pills, making him the Red Runt, smallest of the Communist Korean forces, but a menace when he takes the dwindling pills. The Marvels are about to transform, but are knocked out by a guard, and when they come to they have been securely bound and gagged, and are in the same cell as Wade. The Red Runt reveals he slipped an enlarging pill down each of their throats while they were out cold. He then takes the rest of the enlarging pills which will make him a mile high giant for an all-out attack against the American forces. The Marvels start growing, meaning Wade will soon be crushed, but their bonds and gags snap, enabling them to transform. It is odd the enlarging pill makes clothes grow, yet the Marvels bonds and gags did not grow. The Marvels fly away with Wade while Mong is causing chaos. They put Wade down and tell him to run back to the American lines, however he picks up a discarded rifle and attacks Mong by stabbing him in the foot. The book calls him 'the world's bravest soldier.' The Marvels hit Mong with a mountain, which is odd since their own strength would have been enough. Mong falls onto the entire communist army following him. The Marvels then use dwindling pills to shrink him down, then take the Red Runt to a prison camp and destroy the pills, not thinking of possibly analyzing them for the Americans. Wade leads a counter-attack and is given the medal, but he tries giving it to the Marvels, who have to argue for an hour to get him to take it.

Famous quotes containing the word mightiest:

    The quality of mercy is not strained.
    It droppeth as the gentle rain from heaven
    Upon the place beneath. It is twice blest:
    It blesseth him that gives, and him that takes.
    ‘Tis mightiest in the mightiest. It becomes
    The thronèd monarch better than his crown.
    William Shakespeare (1564–1616)
