On Sakaar, 1000 years from now, High Priestess Venkiera of
the Shadow People calls for the extermination of the Haargs, descendants of the
Hulks. Overhearing this, Haargs Tala and her kid brother Balo trek towards the
Sky City for refuge but they are intercepted by some Shadow Warriors and Tala
is shot in the head and Balo carried off….
Tala, strong enough to withstand a neural stinger, finds her
grandfather, Amadeus Cho, and asks for help. But he is reluctant, discouraged
over centuries of violence by him and Banner which killed many through
unintended consequences. Amadeus uses a tracer to locate Balo in a Shadow
starship under guard. They send in sensors and discover that the Shadows have
several children prisoner. But it was a trap and they are attacked by Sentinels
so Amadeus transforms into the Hulk and smashes them. But they are outnumbered
and Amadeus knows they need Banner—the Worldbreaker….

distraught because he feels abandoned by his father and doesn’t trust anyone
else. He is not wanted on Sakaar and he knows that if the humans knew he was
the Son of Hulk, they would hate him too….then an alien monster is discovered
outside, terrorizing hunters. Skaar sees that the creature has its foot caught
in a trap and frees it. Then agents of the Bureau of Alien Neutralization
arrive to kill it, keeping the planet free of invasive species. Enraged, Skaar
assumes his Hulk form and gives them a beating with Jen arriving to stop him
from killing them. Skaar befriends the monster and Jen gives him the list of
targets carried by the BAN agents and Skaar thinks he may belong on Earth after
all….
