Biography[]
When Alicia Masters is leaving Kirby Gallery, Puppet Master tells her to be careful since the subways can be very dangerous, and tells her he always worries about her, then tells her goodnight, then leaves.
He appears again later and used Psychic Clay to send several museum exhibits, such as mummies and dinosaurs, after the Fantastic Four to protect Alicia from them.
In the end, after the heroes destroyed a statue of Horus, Phillip escaped through the back door. His last line was, "Next time, Fantastic Fools, the Puppet Master will not fail." The heroes, however, weren't aware that he was responsible for the disaster, believing it instead to be a side effect of the cosmic rays that gave them their newfound powers.
