The Stranger leaves earth with the rampaging Hulk left behind to wreak destruction on his behalf. Turning back into his alter ego, Banner surrenders himself to Gamma Base and tries to kill himself with radiation to stop the Hulk's destruction.

More powerful than even the Hulk, Abomination beats the jade giant down and kidnaps Betty as he escapes from the base.
