In "Les ordres de Psyklop," the world's greatest scientific minds believe they’ve mastered the Hulk—until an ancient alien warlord abducts him, using his immense strength to awaken long-dormant cosmic horrors. With a mix of alien technology and eerie voo-doo, the villain sets a dark plan in motion, turning the Hulk’s rage into a weapon for apocalyptic ends.
In "Son nom est... Samson!," General Ross enlists Dr. Samson to harness the Hulk’s power in a bid to free Betty from her crystalline state and cure Bruce Banner once and for all. When the experiment succeeds, Samson’s ambition leads him to absorb more of the Hulk’s energy—transforming himself into a new kind of hero. As Samson begins to court Betty, Bruce’s jealousy flares, reigniting the rage within him.
