Aboard the SHIELD Helicarrier,
Black Panther prepares to track down the new HulkAmadeus Cho in his huge
battle armor. Captain Marvel assigns Agent Jake Oh to go along a SHIELD
liaison. Aboard their two-man ship, T’Challa questions Jake’s fitness for the
mission and he convinces the King that being a grunt who takes orders qualifies
him for the job. They find Amadeus having a meal in a diner; Panther explains
that their concern is Hulk’s going after Clint (Hawkeye) Barton who killed
Bruce Banner. But Amadeus knows they’re watching and writes “Bye” on the table
in soda and hits the trail on his motorbike. Sister Maddy Cho intercepts him,
asking what he thinks he’s doing. Turns out Amadeus can’t get over Bruce Banner’s
death: he was cured, he was no threat, yet he had Hawkeye kill him so Amadeus
is going to find Hawkeye and decide what to do then. She tells him of a monster
sighting in Austin, Texas but he is firm….
Hulk (bursting out of the trunk in
Amadeus’ mental picture) arrives at Clint Barton’s remote cabin but he enters
as Amadeus and confronts Clint. But in an instant he’s Hulk again—and “Clint”
cuts off the induced image to reveal Black Panther. T’Challa attacks with
sonics but Hulk is able to clap him away. Next the hero uses gas but Hulk is
immune. Amadeus insists he’s not dangerous; T’Challa demands he surrender. Hulk
refuses, Panther uses electricity, warning Hulk his battle armor absorbs
energy, making him stronger. Hulk refuses….
In Austin, Maddy Cho helps a young
man flee the disaster area—and then he transforms into a huge -insectoid
monster….
