The US Department of Defense is considering using Emil
Blonsky, the Abomination, as a combat asset, imagining him capturing Saddam
Hussein and carrying out other risky missions. Several military types are
consulted on the matter. General Thunderbolt Ross is strongly against the idea,
calling Blonsky a monster. The Secretary of Defense points out that Ross is the
one who hired Blonsky for an administrative position in the division and may be
resentful that Blonsky eventually outranked him. The Secretary then brings up
Doc Samson….
Years ago Samson was captured by a team led by Mercy (Abigail
Wright) under orders from Blonsky accusing Samson of aiding Bruce Banner.
Samson will be held until he tells everything he knows about the Hulk; Samson
accuses Blonsky of wanting the Hulk’s power for himself. A report comes that
the Hulk is rampaging downtown. Blonsky dispatches the military to fight him; Doc
Samson escapes custody to try to talk Hulk into surrendering peacefully….
In the present, Ross meets Samson, telling him he is needed
to do a psychiatric evaluation of a subject…and then he is taken in to see the
captive Abomination….
