In "The Abomination!", Stan Lee delivers a gripping tale anchored by the raw intensity of Gil Kane’s dynamic artwork, as the story unfolds through letters from readers across the UK—Nicholas Oldfield in Mundesley, Harry T. in London, N. Binet in Jersey, Mark Graham in Leighton Buzzard, and Steven Laming in County Durham—each sharing their thoughts on the latest Marvel madness. The issue’s bold visuals, rendered with precision by Kane and brought to life by Sam Rosen’s lettering, are matched by the striking cover by Rich Buckler and Mike Esposito, capturing the era’s electric energy in a 0.05 GBP comic from 1973.

In "The Abomination!", the Stranger’s absence leaves the Hulk unchecked, rampaging across the landscape. After Banner surrenders to Gamma base, desperate to end the destruction, a foreign spy is transformed into the terrifying Abomination using the gamma machine—more powerful than the Hulk himself. With the Abomination now on the loose, Betty Ross is taken, and chaos ensues as the battle between the two titans begins.

In "Whosoever Harms the Hulk..!", the Hulk, barely clinging to life after a brutal clash with the Abomination, is pulled back from death by General Thaddeus Ross and his team.
