That old line, "Two out of three ain't bad," won't fly here, soldier.

When the Incredible Hulk's the enemy,

you miss once, you missed permanently.

Hello, Thunderbolt. Still wet-nursing the army grunts.

And you Shield bozos are still circling the skies like vultures,

eh, Agent Gabriel?

- Got some orders. - Since when do you follow orders?

Whenever I feel like it. Like now.

After your recent Hulk mishap, the big bosses in Washington

made a little deal with us Shield bozos to assist.

Assist? I don't need any superspies on this one.

We already know who we're after.

But we'll make sure you catch ‘em this time.

Simple supply and demand, General.

We supply your hi-tech hardware,

we demand you put one of our star players on your team.

Namely, me.

You want in my unit, secret agent man, you earn your place in it.

Consider it earned. I just dispatched our latest search-and-destroy robots

to a Hulk sighting in Nevada.

You what?

Yeah, who knows, Thunder, old boy?

We might all be packing for home by morning coffee.

Hulk smash!

Hulk, no, please.

Hulk, look out!

Help Hulk?

Friend?

I don't believe it. The Hulk!

Oh, man.

Nice of you to join us, Mitch. Just in time for your first break.

Oh, man, I just ran into the Incredible Hulk. He picked up my car.

I think he likes me.

If that's your idea of a pickup, you've been alone too long, buddy.

McCutcheon, you're late. Again.

- Cut him some slack, chief. - Yeah, he was a little held up.

Way up.

By the Incredible Hulk!

Tonopah, Arizona? What are you doing out in cactus country, Rick?

Getting my kicks on Route 66.

With our mean, green fighting machine seen headed into the sunset,

I'm California bound. I just gotta find him.

He's all alone.

I know, but keep your chin up, capiche?

Latest report has him moving through Nevada.

Then I'd better roll.

- Hasta, Bet. - Bye, Rick.

And the legendary Doc Samson finally makes his heroic entrance.

Hello, Betty.

Hats off to you for convincing Gamma Base to continue funding my research.

This time we'll find that cure for Bruce Banner.

Doc, I...

About the terms of your invitation here, please understand.

- I was desperate. - Whatever you told me.

Get me a satellite snapshot of that area Gabriel targeted near Las Vegas.

Samson!

- Good to see you, man. - Same here, General.

- Hello, Betty. - Major.

Glad to have you aboard,

especially with all that gamma- mutated muscle you're packing.

The Hulkbusters need someone who can go toe to toe with the Hulk.

Hulkbusters? Did I miss something?

Welcome aboard! See you at the team briefing, five minutes.

I want Gabriel's orders from Shield checked and double-checked again.

If Nick Fury thinks he can...

Ross is inducting me into something called the Hulkbusters?

I'm sorry. It was the only way my father would approve the funding.

Betty, check the hair. I'm not exactly a military man.

Doc, to cure Bruce Banner, you first have to save the Hulk.

Right. Welcome to the nightmare.

Hulk smash! Hulk bash!

Hulk whack!

About time, Mitch.

I got a blind date with Mr Could Be But Probably Isn't Wonderful.

Sorry, Peg. I ran into... some car trouble.

The super on your case again?

I've had it with clock-watching, pencil-pushing Poindexters.

Someday I'll get into research, where I belong.

Face it, that ship passed you by and docked in a younger man's harbour.

You're an operations man, so you may as well learn to love it.

Yeah. What?

Security, there's a...

Never mind.

This is a job for Operations Man.

Let's see.

Hulk smash machine!

Wait, no!

Not robot?

No, no. No bad robots here.

Just me.

- A friend? - Friend?

A friend?

That's right. You remember. Friend. Amigo.

Whoa! Never mind. Friend's fine.

Now what are you doing?

Oh, man!

Where... Where am I?

Nevada?

- How do you...? Why...? - Nevada? The nuclear research facility.

- You know it? - I designed it.

Sure! Dream on, pal. Bruce Banner designed this place.

And from what I just saw, you're...

Bruce Banner? Oh, man! I've read about you in the science journals.

- I'm Mitch McCutcheon. I work here. - Can you get me inside?

It's very important.

Look, I have an experiment to finish.

Please. Can you help me?

Well...

The Bruce Banner, huh?

Well, sure, sure. Why not? Sure. You kidding? I was born to help you.

Gentlemen, welcome to the Hulkbusters.

I believe you all know my field commander Major Glenn Talbot,

and our special craft pilot Samuel Loriquet.

And then there's Agent Gabriel of Shield,

who is joining us in a purely advisory capacity.

Also please welcome Leonard "Doc" Samson,

in charge of our Hulk containment units.

Also working on a cure for the Hulk.

Yeah, right. The only cure for the Hulk is annihilation.

What's the cure for insufferable arrogance?

Speaking of which, I believe Major Talbot has the results

of a recent Shield mission to capture the Hulk all by their lonesomes.

Behold, Agent Gabriel's search and destroy robots.

- Minor setback. The next mission... - Will be under my command.

Let's gear up. The Hulk is on the loose.

and Hulkbuster mission one begins now.

Betty! What the blazes do you think you're doing?

I'm going along.

- The devil you are. - I need her help, General,

if I'm going to have that electron Hulk cage ready in time.

Well, you'd better take good care of her.

- I owe you one. - You'd better believe it.

That's not McCutcheon's sector. Get me the supervisor.

- Whoa! Take the scenic route? - I had to do a run around security.

So what do you think?

Would she do?

Now if we can just scare up a few small supplies.

We're nearly there.

If I can just get these particles in phase...

Replace that retroconverter with a Class D model.

Yeah. Yeah, that would do it.

Yeah. You see? There you go.

You know, you would be a hit in research,

what with your operations background an' all.

Yeah, well. Someday.

OK.

Time to hit the high notes. Mitch, thanks. You risked a lot for me.

It meant a lot to me, too.

I mean, working with... Well, actually, helping you...

Anyway, may the Hulk rest in peace, huh? Come on, let's do it.

Activating psionic field.

Seize that man!

This unauthorised use of equipment is over.

- You don't understand. - No. I'm too close. Please.

Gotta.. keep... calm...

Banner, get out of there! The panel's going critical.

Mitch!

Warning, nuclear core breach.

- Initiate full evacuation. - Move! Move!

What's happened?

I've changed.

I feel the power!

Mitch!

- McCutcheon is history. - No!

You've just been transformed.

Go back into the field.

Maybe I can reverse it, make you normal again.

No! Normal people get stepped on.

Never again!

Call me Zzzax, cos I got the power!

That kind of power, it isn't worth it. I know...

I know what I'm talking about.

You know that.

Here's my resignation, sonny.

McCutcheon's circuit is closed.

I choose to remain Zzzax.

Main power outage. Switching to auxiliary generator.

The core is shut down.

Feeling drained... Need a juice break.

Oh, yes!

Core shutdown disabled. Meltdown imminent.

General, they're evacuating Las Vegas.

Explosions at a nuclear research facility. Could be him.

That's where we start looking. How's that containment unit coming?

It's bigtime jerry-rigged, but strong.

No, don't be a fool. Stop!

The system can't cool the rods in the core without the generator.

Auxiliary power. Core shutdown disabled. Meltdown in 30 seconds.

You're causing a nuclear disaster!

24...

Friend gone?

And good riddance.

Hulk smash!

Gee, do I feel a little electricity between us,

or is it just me?

- Seven, six... - No, seems you feel the friction, too.

Five, four

three,

two,

one.

What? You short-circuited me!

Losing power!

Auxiliary power restored.

Core shutdown proceeding. Countdown terminated.

That really upset me.

Need more raw power!

Hulk hurt.

Hulk, freeze! Do not resist capture.

Didn't you see what that thing just did to the Hulk?

Samson, now!

It's not holding that monster.

Hulk smash! Hulk bash! Hulk crash!

Betty?

Puny toys!

Do yourselves a favour,

stay in here.

Betty hurt?

No, Hulk, I'm OK.

But that electrical creature, look what it's done.

Now it's heading for Hoover Dam.

You have to stop it, Hulk.

If it does to that dam what it did here, there'll be a flood.

Innocent people will drown.

And the Hulk doesn't let innocent people get hurt.

I know you don't understand, but...

Please, Hulk, I'm asking you. Go stop that thing.

- For me? - For Betty.

Positronically electrifying!

And now for a serious power lunch.

You low volt!

I'm gonna fry you like a green tomato.

I'm having a severe energy crisis.

Hulk... pain...

I am the power!

Alright,

let's blow some fuses.

Hulk lose...

I know you don't understand,

but please, Hulk, I'm asking you.

Go stop that thing. For me?

For Betty.

For Betty!

That green mistake'll be long gone before my strike force gets here.

He made it.

Looks like Hulkbusters' maiden mission

hit the proverbial iceberg and sank, eh, General?

It's a big war, Gabriel. This was just one battle.

Interesting, though, how the Hulk whipped both Shield and the military

in the same day.

Hulk.

Friend.

Yes.

Friend.
