“The Changelings--Part II!”

In "The Changelings—Part II!", the Hulk, isolated and believing himself friendless, is provoked into a fight by Doc Samson—only to be called back when Siren urgently warns him that Leoninus has poisoned Centauron and the Changelings' village is under attack. With Sal Buscema’s dynamic art capturing the clash of giants and the emotional weight of fractured alliances, Bill Mantlo delivers a pivotal chapter where loyalty is tested and the Hulk must choose whether to stand with his allies. The cover by Rich Buckler and Al Milgrom perfectly captures the chaos, as the valley erupts in conflict and the fate of the Changelings hangs in the balance.
