I'll do my best. In the first chapter, Great Mazinger defeats Mamerugosu マーメルゴス, but almost gets defeated by a missile attack prepared by Angoras. Next Great Mazinger defeats Archduke Gorgon who was battling Mazinger along with a jellyfish like beast, being killed by a Electro Thunder Spark attack. Next, Marquis Janus hypnotizes Boss into attacking Mazinger, which allows Merutazu メルターズ to temporary get the upper hand by destroying Mazinger’s right arm, though Mazinger still defeats it. In the next chapter, after a ferocious battle, Great Mazinger destroys the Great General of Darkness. I believe here is the last appearance of the Emperor of Darkness in this manga. Next, it’s the debut of the Great Marshall of Hell who send Igor イゴー and Gurongo グロンゴ to hijack an airplane and a train to force Tetsuya to surrender Great Mazinger, which Tetsuya does apparently. But it is all a ruse and that chained Great Mazinger was a costume worn by Venus A to force the enemies to shown themselves. However, most of Mycenae commanders attack Great Mazinger and almost defeat him. But in another twist, all of this was an illusion by Hadias that Tetsuya discovers before destroying him. Next chapter is the return of Mazinger Z. It is in this chapter that it is explained that Mazinger Z was rebuilt with the Super Alloy New Z, which as far as I know is not explained everywhere else. Rubigirasu ルビギラス is sent to kill Koji before he gets to Mazinger Z, but Great easily dispatches the beast and Koji meets finally his parent and the rest of the group. In the next chapter, the Great Marshall of Hell launches and all-out attack with which the Photon Labs are destroyed and Dr. Kabuto sacrifices himself to destroy most of the attackers. This ends with a final battle between the Great Marshall of Hell and both Mazingers who finally destroy him.



As commented by SaotomeMondo, the manga is complementary to the anime, and, with a few exceptions, you won’t find here much that differs from the anime. So, like most series published in TV magazine at the time, this manga is more a complement to the TV series and the plot is essentially the same as the anime, contrary to Ota’s version where there are several drastic changes such as the death of Tetsuya at the end. I hope this helps.
