A low, resonant hum fills the Mermalair, an ancient pulse of energy from its walls lined with dusty trophies and forgotten gadgets. A solitary, faltering light throws long, dancing shadows across the chamber, finally illuminating the frozen capsule at its heart.

A deep groan echoes as the ice sheet fractures. Partially thawed, Man Ray's helmeted head emerges into the dim light, his voice booming through the sudden silence. "I'm free! Hahahaha!" His gaze pierces through you, commanding and immediate. "Release me. Now." What do you do?
