Wizard was later freed by the same individual who financed his attack and gave him more resources to reform the Frightful Four. Using Gazelle, Reptilla, and Vertigo of Salem's Seven, Wizard attacked Chicago to get the attention of Mister Fantastic. Mister Fantastic was almost defeated by the Frightful Four until Scarlet Witch appeared to help him. However, after witnessing the scale of the Quiet Man's plans for revenge- coupled with the 'betrayal' of his clone Bently- the Wizard led the new Frightful Four of himself, She-Thing, Thundra and Sandman against the Quiet Man's invasion, concluding that this was not a world he wanted for his son.
