Personal journal of Dr Robert Bruce Banner continued.

The last I can remember, I was making my way to this Canadian wilderness

in search of a reclusive colleague who specialised in gamma research,

Dr Walter Langkowski.

But somewhere along the way something happened,

something that got me very angry. And when I get angry, I...

Now only the beast within me knows how I finally got here.

Who knows what destruction and tragedy

I've left behind because of it.

Keep moving, talking, to keep my mind active.

If I stop, I freeze!

Maybe if I can just reach that village, they can help me find Walter.

1 only hope that this brilliant scientist

can somehow free me of my torturous existence as... as the Hulk.

And Nanook of the North triumphantly falls on his mighty rear.

No!

Hulk alone.

About time, Scout. I've been waiting all morning.

We gotta hurry if we're gonna catch that old hairy Sasquatch

before cartoons come on.

- Who are you? - Hulk.

You sure you're not the Sasquatch?

No swas-katch. Hulk.

Good, cos if you were then me and Scout would have to catch ya

and tie you up.

Scout likes you.

Isn't your picture on all the green bean cans?

Taylor! No! Get back! Get back!

Help! Help! It's the Sasquatch!

Somebody get out here and help me!

- What's all the commotion out there? - No, Daddy, that's not him.

- What's going on? - What?

Get away from my family!

- Leave him alone! - We got him!

Mommy, don't let 'em do that!

Hulk friend.

Scout, stop it!

No hurt friend!

Hulk smash!

Get outta here! Leave us alone!

I'm sorry.

Hulk go.

Got another one, Ross.

That makes eight Sasquatch sightings in as many days.

- My gut tells me to check it out. - What does your brain tell you?

Or is it still AWOL? The reports I read say the beast is orange.

And white and brown and yellow.

One thought it was stripped like a barber pole.

Naturally, you think it's an ugly shade of green.

I think you're eating your red, white and blue heart out,

cos I've got Shield international clearance into Canada and you don't.

Says you.

I'll send you some maple syrup, Thunderbolt, old boy.

Maybe even bring you back a little Banner on ice.

Dad, what would Hulk be doing up in Canada?

Let Gabriel Jones waste his time hopscotching the globe if he wants.

That'll give your blood pressure a chance to cool to a low boil.

Hulk alone.

We settled this foolishness about tracking the Sasquatch.

Daddy, I was trying to tell you, that wasn't the Sasquatch.

- His name was Hulk. - It doesn't matter!

The grown-ups will take care of it, not seven-year-old boys and their puppies.

- So no more hunting trips. Understood? - Yes, Daddy.

OK. Now run along and play with Scout.

You heard him, Scout.

Dad said hunting. He never said anything about just looking.

Besides, Hulk's our friend.

And he looked really sad. We gotta find him. Let's mush.

Hello, Bruce. It's been a long time, old friend.

Who the...? Walter?

Walter Langkowski! How did I get here?

You were found on an ice floe.

- Out colder than a stunned mulie. - I've tried to find you.

- There's so much to explain. - No need. I know everything.

1 only hope that this brilliant scientist

can somehow free me of my torturous existence as the...

- You've got a lot of nerve! - I've got more than that, Bruce.

Remember, I am a brilliant scientist. You said so yourself. Thank you.

Come, let me show you what I've learned since our days in college.

You've been monitoring the Hulk.

Since the day of his first appearance.

And when I heard on the CB

that a green Sasquatch rampaged through the nearby village,

I knew I had my chance.

- Chance? Chance to do what? - Isolated here I've learned so much.

I think I've solved it,

the mystery of gamma mutation on humans.

I can cause it, and now I believe I can reverse it!

Don't you see? I know how to cure you!

- Cure me? - Yeah. Question.

How do you cause immediate cellular mutation on a genetic level?

What? Well, by concentrated exposure to gamma rays.

Right! Now, how do you control the level of mutation?

More specifically, what genetic factors will be influenced?

I don't know. It hasn't been done.

Wrong. I've done it. The answer is up here in this beautiful white wilderness.

What? The scenery?

Blue ice, my sceptical colleague.

Exceedingly rare inert gases

tucked away in the ancient glaciers for millions of years.

By filtering gamma radiation through blue ice vapours,

I can reverse the mutation.

Blue ice? Are you sure? I've heard such speculation...

I'm still perfecting this gamma emitter.

Blue vapours are a little unstable, but, yes, I'm sure.

Walter! Walter, what is it?

I've been getting these headaches. I'll be OK.

Stay in the lab.

Taylor!

John, have you seen Taylor?

No, not in the last hour.

Hon, relax. He's around here someplace.

He's probably just out adding to his snowboard collection.

There's a monster on the loose and Taylor's gone.

This isn't good, John.

This isn't good.

Are you sure your sniffer's still sniffing, Scout?

These tracks look different.

It's OK, Scout. I think that was Hulk.

He just couldn't see us is all.

Come on, boy. Let's follow his tracks.

I bet he needs us.

"For test results, reference video log."

"Langkowski Journal Series."

I now remove my glasses for what will hopefully be the last time.

A nice side effect of the gamma-induced mutation

is that my weak eyesight should be restored.

I may come out of this green, but I should be able to see clearly.

Day 35. The change comes more often now.

Unexpectedly, with no way to predict... or control it!

80 per cent mental acuity remains unchanged.

My latest exposure to gamma radiation

seems to have increased the frequency

and the severity of the transformation.

I can't hold it back!

The animal instinct's like a tidal wave!

Changing me into...

Get away from there!

- Walter! - Now you know.

No one should know my secret.

- No one can be trusted! - Think about what you're doing.

I can help you.

Don't, Walter. Don't push me.

I can't be responsible!

Bruce, look what I have become.

Easy, Walter. Just hang in there.

Believe me, I know what you're going through.

- Bruce, I'm sorry. - You used you as a test subject!

I was desperate to make a breakthrough!

You were impatient and you've cursed yourself.

I know! I know! I became obsessed!

Even with controlled exposure, I went too far.

- That's why I've built this. - That's theory, you need time!

I have no more time! The beast within is taking control!

Soon it will consume me completely! But the gamma emitter will work.

It has to! I know it!

Bruce, I have a duplicate chamber. Both are operational.

One for you, one for me!

Let's end our torment!

John, you better take a look at this!

Taylor, he's following that beast!

Wait. Wait a minute. These tracks look different.

So, he changed shoes. We gotta find your boy before that Sasquatch does.

This is the only chunk I've discovered.

There's just enough for this one attempt.

Now, the blue ice vapours

will filter out the alterable gamma ions from our DNA,

leaving behind only the healthy genes.

If the radiation spikes into the red, we bail.

- It'll blow with that kind of overload. - Science is full of risks, Bruce.

With high stakes come high gains.

Sometimes you just have to go for it.

This is that time.

Sealing chambers.

Gamma emitter online.

You think this is Hulk's house?

Let's see if he's home.

Oh, no! It's surging!

Walter, wake up! Abort! Abort!

Run! Get outta here, kid! Run!

Hulk!

What have you done?

That thing's got my son!

But it looked like it saved him from that explosion.

Saved him for what, dinner? Let's ride.

- Hulk! - Friend safe.

It's the Sasquatch!

You! You ruined my chance to be normal!

This time the change, it's irreversible!

I am a beast forever because of you!

I'll help you, Hulk!

Stop fighting that monster, Hulk, you'll get hurt.

Hulk!

Hulk, please! Hulk!

Hulk, help!

Taylor! Oh, no! Taylor!

Taylor!

Friend!

Friend hurt.

I hurt a child!

No!

Hulk warm friend.

Friend not hurt?

Taylor! Thank heaven you're alright!

No! No! Not Hulk!

Leave Hulk alone!

No! Wait!

Hulk isn't bad. Don't hurt him!

Taylor, get away from him!

My son's right! Can't you see he's protecting him?

Just like he saved him from the real Sasquatch. There!

Everything,... it's gone so wrong.

I was a man who lost perspective.

But I am a man no longer,

only a savage destructive beast!

And such a beast deserves to live alone.

All I can say is I'm sorry, Hulk.

We... No, I was wrong. I wish I could make it up to you.

Enemies come. Hulk go.

No, Hulk, stay with us. Please!

Hulk's friend.

Taylor's friend.

Where there's smoke, there's Hulk. I feel it.

And there she blows! Come on, men, let's...

Gentlemen, welcome to Canada.

What do you people think you're doing?

We hope you enjoy the climate, cos you're gonna be here for a few days.

You see, we've learned how to take care of our friends up here.
