☆ Be the first to review + Add to your collection — Join freeIn "By Force of Arms!", the Hulk—now permanently altered by a gamma surge that locks him in his monstrous form—finds himself bound to the Leader's will after a desperate rescue. Transported to the Watcher's planet, he's ordered to steal the "ultimate machine," unaware that a being of galactic might is already hunting it. Written by Stan Lee and illustrated by Jack Kirby with art by Bob Powell, inks by Mike Esposito, and letters by Artie Simek, this 1965 issue features cover art by Jack Kirby and Gene Colan, with inks by Mike Esposito and Vince Colletta.
Namor rallies electric eels in a desperate bid to stop the Demon of the Diamonds, then journeys to the realm of the Faceless Ones to rescue Dorma, who’s been exiled there. Meanwhile, back in Atlantis, the people rise up in open revolt against Krang.
In "Another World, Another Foe!", the Hulk—still burdened by Banner’s mind but permanently transformed by a surge of gamma radiation—finds himself pulled across the cosmos to the Watcher’s planet, where he’s tasked with stealing the "ultimate machine." But as he arrives, he realizes he’s not the only one hunting it: the most powerful being in the galaxy has also set its sights on the prize, and the Humanoids stand ready to exploit the chaos.
