Synopsis:
Radio announcer Jason Cragg is accidentally exposed to radiation which causes people to obey anything he says. Cragg travels to Center City where he watches Ant-Man take down a gang of criminals. Jealous of the public adoration that Ant-Man receives, Cragg uses his voice to during the police and public against Ant-Man.
The Ant-Man is forced to hide from people who have organized a hunt to find him. He is forced to remove his helmet when they use magnets to locate him. Without the helmet, Ant-Man is overcome by Cragg's voice and forced to walk off the edge of a pier. Ant-Man's ants save him.
Having made his escape, Ant-Man sets up a plan to stop Cragg. He uses a prop gun controlled by ants to bluff the crook into using his voice to exonerate Ant-Man. Then he uses microbes to induce laryngitis in Cragg. Even when he regains his voice, the crook has lost his hypnotic power, and the police run him out of town.
