Story continues from WEAPON X #5.
Agent Carla arrives at the Weapon X
facility with new recruit Bobby Andrews, escorting him through the building
until they reach the Black Level. There, Bobby is strapped to a chair and
forced to watch a film describing mutants as evil with Hulk the evilest of all,
having killed Bobby’s brother Dave and now Bobby has to step up and be the new
hero. After this Rev. William Stryker appears to him and Bobby is hurried into
the test, dubbed H-Beta. Doctor Alba is running another experiment with
H-Alpha, who has not been indoctrinated by Rev. Stryker, compared by Alba to
Wolverine with his discipline and control….
Aboard the Olympus Group Transport
near Serenity Hills, Texas, Amadeus Cho shows the team the layout of the town
and the central building, Weapon X headquarters, warning them that they have
only a limited time to stop production on the killer cyborgs or they will be
overwhelmed. When the rest of the group suggests just bombing the whole place
from the sky, Amadeus balks at the idea of killing innocent people along with
the baddies, a consideration the others don’t care about. Amadeus reminds them
they are going to save Bobby Andrews, a dumb kid who has made a lot of bad
choices but he doesn’t deserve what’s happening to him. Domino suggests just
bombing the lowest level but Warpath points out that would give their enemies
time to escape. Amadeus snatches the suitcase bomb from the table and
Sabretooth attacks him; Amadeus turns into Hulk and gives him a sound
thrashing. Creed pushes Hulk out of the doorway and triggers the bomb in Hulk’s
hand. An enraged Hulk returns to beat him into a pulp. Seeing Hulk unleash all
his passion and power assures the others that he will be all right on the
mission and they agree to do it his way. Domino asks Hulk for assurance that
any loot she finds she can keep….
That night, a pizza delivery van
pulls up to the front gate, carrying a team of heroes….
Old Man Logan and Lady Deathstrike
are in the issue too but I couldn’t fit them into the synopsis.
