The Fantastic Four head back into space (because that's turned out so well for them every other time they've done it) in a race to the moon against the Commie menace of the Red Ghost and his Super-Apes! Plus, Iron Man fights a guy who never shows up again, Thor fights a guy who never shows up again, and Ant-Man fights a guy who only shows up one or two more times. And Namor inflates himself like a pufferfish. That's got to be worth something, right?
