Incredible Hulk: Pardoned #[nn]

Now Somewhere in the Black Holes of Sirius Major There Lived a Young Boy Name of... Rocket Raccoon! brings the Hulk to a strange, star-strewn world where he teams up with Rocket Raccoon and his companions to face unknown threats across surreal landscapes. As the Hulk fights to survive in this alien realm, back on Earth, Betty pleads with Bereet to save Rick Jones, who claims he’s never met her—though his life hangs in the balance.

In "What Friends Are for!", Bruce Banner faces his darkest hour when the U-Foes capture him and broadcast his plight to the world, daring heroes to act while they promise to erase the Hulk once and for all. With the rest of the world frozen in helpless observation, it's up to Rick, Betty, and Bereet to stand against the threat—no matter the cost.

In "Today Is the First Day of the Rest of My Life!", Bruce Banner recounts the moment his life takes a sudden turn—just as he’s settling into a new chapter with a lab built by Scott Lang, an unexpected threat arrives in the form of Zzzax, forcing Banner to answer the call of the Hulk once more.
