Etranges Aventures #24
In "La cité oubliée," the Hulk faces off against a seemingly unstoppable robot version of Bruce Banner in a clash of mind and might, culminating in a dramatic descent into a bottomless chasm. With Glenn Talbot arriving at Gamma Base under Pentagon orders and Betty's safety now in question, the tension escalates as the Hulk is captured after saving the base from a missile strike—his defeat orchestrated by a restraint designed by Banner and Stark. Written by Stan Lee and illustrated by Steve Ditko, with inks by George Roussos, this 1972 issue features a cover by Bob Brown, capturing the moment’s high stakes in bold, striking detail.

The Hulk takes on the indestructible Banner created robot and, in one of the more dubious plot devices in comics, succeeds in kicking him down a bottomless hole when he realizes that he cannot beat the machine. Glenn Talbot arrives on gamma base sent by the Pentagon to keep an eye on the suspicious activity of Bruce Banner. Glenn decides that keeping an eye on Betty seems like a good idea as well. The Hulk is felled while saving Gamma Base from a missile and Ross captures him in a special restraint built by Bruce Banner based on a design by Tony Stark.
