Doc Samson believes that a new Hulk is responsible, and he used a weapon capable of killing the Abomination.

Suddenly the Winter Guard (AKA the Soviet Super Soldiers, a group formed by the Red Guardian (male version), Ursa MajorCrimson Dynamo and Darkstar) arrives and demands the Americans to leave the country at once.

Doc Samson refuses and throws the first punch. But Ross stops the fight when he sees a kid, perhaps the only survivor in the area. He keeps saying “Kpachasi... Kpachasi...” which in Russian means “red”.

Perplexed, Doc Samson and Ross visit one is a guru on Hulk matters: Bruce Banner. Since he is in a special prison on the new Gamma Base, Death Valley, Nevada, who could be the new “Hulk”?
 
Meanwhile, in the snowy mountains of Alaska, Rick Jones with bare chest and torn pants, watches a gas pipeline on fire, men try putting it out. He says to himself, “What have I gotten myself into?”

Hulk (2008 series) #1 Review by (February 15, 2010)
The fight is started by the Americans without being attacked by the Russians, just as it happened with the recent war (invasion) on Iraq, called "War on Terrorism" by those who support it.
