The vampiric Shadow Colonel, leader of the Legion of the Unliving, claims to have sliced off a piece of Man-Thing, which he grew into a miniature version of the monster.
The Colonel keeps Boy-Thing chained to his armor, where he does things like create wooden stakes for killing rival vampires. Unlike the Shadow Colonel, Blade doesn't keep the small monster in chains. The full extent of Boy-Thing's abilities aren't known. Presumably, he has the same abilities as Man-Thing, but in 's Avengers 29, he displays a power we've never seen from the older swamp beast. During a space mission, the half-vampire Blade is dying from exposure to red sunlight while Black Widow is losing a battle with the Silver Surfer.
Boy-Thing covers Blade's skin and his sword. It forms a kind of armor that protects Blade from the sunlight and allows him to hurt the newly-intangible Silver Surfer. Jackson Strode is captured by the clandestine organization Blackgrass, who have gotten their hands on Ted Sallis' research.
They use him as a guinea pig, expecting him to die, but instead he transforms into Man-Slaughter. Unlike Man-Thing, Man-Slaughter retains his intelligence and can choose to switch back and forth between his swamp monster and human forms, though his narration indicates it's getting more difficult for him to make the shift back to human.
Blackgrass uses Man-Slaughter to do their dirty work, promising an antidote. Unfortunately, each time he does what they ask, they say they're going to need him for just one more mission before they can cure him. By the end of the story, Man-Slaughter has to choose whether or not to continue to be loyal to the same people who infected him, especially as he becomes convinced the cure for his condition doesn't exist.
