Hulk has returned to Earth, angrier (and STRONGER) than ever! He wants revenge! The explosion of the space capsule that took him to planet Sakaar caused the death of a million Sakaar citizens, including queen Caiera, his wife, and their unborn child in her womb.
He blames those who cast him away: the Illuminati members Mr. Fantastic, Doctor Strange, Black Bolt and Iron Man.
Hulk is not alone: he is joined by his warbound allies Korg, Hiroim, Miek, Brood, and Elloe. Robot Arch-E-5912 is another instrumental piece of the team.
They land on the Earth’s moon, and Hulk faces the Black Bolt, considered the 2nd most powerful mortal after the Sentry. The leader of the Inhumans takes the upper hand, but Hulk is mightier than his former self, and defeats Black Bolt.
Next stop is New York city. Hulk broadcasts a video showing how the four Illuminati tell him their decision to cast him into space. Hulk also explains why the devastation of the planet Sakaar is also their fault.
In retaliation, Jade Jaws will destroy Manhattan, in a day, allowing everyone some time to evacuate. After that grace period, he wants to see Mr. Fantastic, Doctor Strange and Iron Man or he will do to them what he did to Black Bolt (as he shows him unconscious and badly hurt).
Mr. Fantastic and Iron Man convince the Sentry to aid them stop the Hulk. But it’s Tony Stark, Iron Man, who confronts the Hulk, taking full blame for his return.
Tony didn’t go unprepared for the clash. He wears a large powerful armor prepared to handle threats like the Hulk. Initially, Iron Man seems to win the confrontation. But the green goliath emerged more furious and powerful, taking the battle to the new Avengers tower. Hulk’s pounding Iron Man caused the spider-like enormous sign on top of the building to fall through it, practically causing its destruction (note: this resembled the fall of the World Trade Center on September 11, 2001.)
After knocking Iron Man out, Hulk stands ready for the next contestant.
