A vision of all superheroes dead at the hands of the Hulk….
At Gamma Base, Bruce Banner recalls how he and
Nikoleta Harrow met: he was kidnapped on her orders and taken to their satellite lab
where his DNA was harvested and, when Hulk went mad, he was ejected and fell to
Earth. Harrow explains that she has again lured A.I.M., led by MODOK on a
mission to destroy her, into a trap. She reveals she has created a gamma bomb
of her own and detonates it, destroying much of the A.I.M. army. The building
collapses on Bruce, forcing a change into the giant Hulk and he battles the
remaining enemies. Harrow injects herself with her serum and becomes a giant
female Hulk. She fights and defeats Hulk, all to demonstrate to MODOK she could
succeed where they failed: controlling Hulk. Then Hulk assaults her and, as the
serum causes her body to break down, she asks how Banner contained the Hulk.
She explodes, leaving Banner to answer the question, that it’s not about
control, it’s that Hulk is the strongest there is. A SHIELD team arrives, led
by Agent Molly Fitzgerald, and takes him into custody….
We see Doctor Doom and Doctor Midas at a chessboard,
indicating that what we have seen was merely part of a game between them, and
Doom has won….
Banner broods over all the deaths caused by Harrow and Hulk.
He mentions Dyane who was nice to him; learning she survived, Bruce goes to
Paris, apologizes to her in French, and departs….
