Story Name:

The Eve of Annihilation


Synopsis

Incredible Hulk #116 Synopsis by Kyle Maurer
Image from Incredible Hulk #116

The Leader traps the Hulk in a living cage at General Thunderbolt Ross’ military base.

The Leader persuades Ross to allow his Super Humanoid onto the base to guard against a Hulk escape. His secret plan is to start World War Three using the base missiles, but Betty Ross, who informs Glenn Talbot, overhears him.

Talbot instructs to release the Hulk from the living cage only to find out that only General Ross can free the Hulk. But when Talbot informs Ross of the plan, he accuses Betty of lying to free the Hulk.

Talbot ignores the General and commands to apprehend the Leader and immobilize the Super Humanoid.

The Leader uses mental force waves to stop the attack, causing the entire base to fall asleep, except for Betty, who wears a protective head device. Betty fires the neutralizer cannon at the living cage, freeing the Hulk, who battles the Super Humanoid. But soon, the Leader uses a living coat of Plastithene to encase him, which is made from the same material as the Humanoids and the living cage.

Untroubled, the Leader prepares to fire the base’s missiles to start World War Three!
