In a tale of cosmic intrusion and escalating tension, a mysterious Stranger arrives on Earth with a chilling agenda: to turn the Hulk into an agent of human extinction. As General Ross doubles down on his crusade against the Hulk, Betty’s desperate pleas fall on deaf ears, while Major Talbot’s simmering jealousy only intensifies his rage. The stage is set for a clash of wills, loyalty, and the fragile line between man and monster.
