A SHIELD Helicarrier flies above New
York City, Director Maria Hill preparing for a strike against Agence
Byzantine, a cadre of arms dealers, on their ship in the harbor. She
finds Bruce Banner using a cell phone to contact his mysterious
outside contact to prove he is not being mistreated by SHIELD; Bruce
is using a newly invented communications system of his own using
infrabands—and we discover his contact is Matt Murdock a/k/a
Daredevil. The agents don parachutes and Hill tells Bruce he is just
going in as an observer; he then jumps and discovers his chute is a
knapsack—so it's the Hulk who crashes into the enemy ship. As Hulk
plows through the baddies, Daredevil confronts Hill over the use of
Hulk as a human shield against the villains' Thor-level ordnance. An
agent falls into the darkened hold of the ship and DD goes down to
rescue him; a baddie fires a sonic rifle that deafens everyone but
especially Daredevil. Hulk smashes the weapon and DD has to intervene
to keep Hulk from killing the bad guy. Hulk reverts to Bruce Banner
and notices there's a gun missing from the stores. DD can detect a
faint ultrasound from the weapon so he and Bruce set out to follow
it, the latter against Maria Hill's orders. The two take a wild taxi
ride and trail the baddie to a bar that is known for armament deals.
Bruce changes to Hulk (by means of the cab's jumper cables) and they
enter the place, Hulk causing even the most hardened thugs to step
back. The baddie gets the drop on them with the sonic rifle and Hulk
pushes against the deafening sound until (I'm not sure how) the whole
place goes up in flames. The baddie is the only one to escape and he
goes to the address on a slip of paper (no idea where he got this)
where he discovers he is working for Baron Zemo....
