Marvel Origins #46

In "Gewaltige Kraft, titanische Qual!", the Hulk’s rage draws the attention of the villain Zaxon, who seeks to harness the Hulk’s power for his own ends—only to meet a swift end. When the Hulk breaks free and unleashes his strength on a pair of attacking jets, he’s startled to find Hercules riding the very train he’s just torn from the tracks. What follows is a brutal clash between two titans, ending not in victory, but in mutual exhaustion—leaving the Hulk to vanish into the distance, ready for another battle another day.

In "Sie leben Tief in der Erde!", the Hulk is dragged into the subterranean realm of Tyrannus, a once-feared enemy now reduced to a frail old man. With the Jungbrunnen in peril and Rick, Betty, and Glenn held captive, Tyrannus pleads for the Hulk’s help to reclaim it from Mole Man—only for the threat to Betty’s safety to send the Hulk into a rage that cuts short before a new assault begins.

In "Die Bühne ist bereitet!", Boomerang is hired by the Secret Empire to steal the plans for the Orion Rocket, setting off a high-stakes race to Gamma Base. When Rick, Betty, and Glenn return from the underground realm, Boomerang captures Betty, using her as leverage—forcing Banner to fight through the chaos of Mole Man and Tyrannus just to reach the surface and save them.

When Betty finds herself in danger at the hands of Boomerang, the Hulk intervenes in a moment that throws off the Secret Empire’s plans to steal the deadly Orion rocket—setting off a chain of events that could change everything.

In "Kein Monster und kein Mensch!", the Hulk saves Betty just in time from Boomerang, but General Ross sees only betrayal—convinced his daughter has been taken, he unleashes the full force of the Gamma Base’s military might in a relentless hunt for the Jaderiesen. While the army is distracted, Boomerang makes another move, slipping through the chaos to seize the Orion Rocket.

In "Aufruhr in der Stadt!" from Marvel Origins #46 (2025), the Hulk, stranded after discovering the Gamma Base abandoned, heads to New York City in search of his old allies among the Avengers—only to be met with hostile police forces. Meanwhile, Rick, a driver with a mysterious new job, is sent to pick up a passenger in the city, warned not to look in the trunk, unaware that his route is about to collide with the Hulk’s desperate journey.

In "Die Rakete und das Monster!", Ross activates the new Orion-Rakete for a test, but foreign spy Gorki triggers a device hidden in a car entrusted to Rick Jones, redirecting the rocket toward the heart of New York. The Hulk intercepts the missile, only to crash into a building and transform into Bruce Banner just as the city’s fate hangs in the balance.

When Bruce Banner clings to the Orion Rocket hurtling toward the heart of New York City, he must fight to alter its course before his transformation into the Hulk becomes inevitable. General Ross, convinced the Hulk is behind the attack, activates a humanoid assassin robot designed to kill the green giant, while Boomerang, armed with upgraded weapons, prepares to face the monster head-on.

In "Der Humanoid und der Held!" from Marvel Origins #46 (2025), the Hulk faces off against the deadly Hulk-Killer-Humanoid sent by the Leader, while General Ross and his allies begin to realize their mission was built on a dangerous misunderstanding. As the battle rages, Boomerang steps into a newly redesigned suit, signaling a shift in the tide—though what it means remains unclear.

When President Ross considers pardoning the Hulk after realizing he’s not the mindless villain he was painted as, the timing couldn’t be worse—Boomerang seizes the moment to provoke the Jaderager into a new rampage. Now caught in the crossfire, the Hulk must face off against the upgraded boomerang-wielding threat, forcing Ross to question whether the danger has truly passed.
