Synopsis
The Molten Man returns! Honestly, the title of the issue has him regretting something. Not once in the whole comic does he seem regretful, remorseful, or even introspective enough to regret anything.
That being said, he's back. Remember the "costume" incident last time? Well now he's wearing what appears to be underwear with some sort of emblem in the center of his waist. It's unclear whether he just painted the underwear to match his "molten" skin or whether he was wearing them when he got covered in that stuff in the first place. Ditko also gives him a "boot line" on his calf, so this also raises questions about his footwear. He was definitely barefoot in his first appearance.
Spider-Man beats him, and spends more time worrying and wondering about Betty's disappearance. Ned Leeds has left too, so he assumes that she's run off and forgotten about him.
