Shut the fuck up, he's having fun!

The Hulk is a lot like Spider-Man in his first issue! Nobody helped him, so why should he care about anyone else!

This isn't a guardian sent by the Watcher, it's someone else trying to steal the Ultimate Machine!

I was wondering if they were watching him watching them watching everyone else!

This is weird, he's talking about himself as if he's the only Watcher, but this is their home planet, right?

Now that the Hulk has Bruce Banner's mind, he isn't actually stupid like he was before, he just lets people think he is, so that he'll have the upper hand!

What is this panel from Avengers 3 doing here?

The Watcher isn't going to be happy about this!

Does the Watcher mind being watched?

He lets the Leader test his abilities! He's not really thinking through what he's going to do when the Leader tells him to kill the president or whatever!

Canonical Bruce Banner home state? I guess he's from Missouri!

Yes! And he's still got all his intelligence! Even though they said that was because of the bullet!

You know, you don't have to rampage!

The Leader is radioactive? Or the Hulk causes him to be? Are they reaching critical mass when they're close?

At least, none still alive! Dr. Storm might have managed it!

The Leader is going to save the Hulk's life! But how will this affect his intelligence?

The Hulk's absorbed a lot of gamma before, but not enough to vaporize lead! That's about 1750 C!

Oh fuck this.

We've been going through the Hulk for over a year, and most of that has been the Leader's arc, but it has barely progressed, because it keeps being interrupted by him getting arrested, and going to Russia, and Mongolia, and now another planet with the Watcher???

It should feel like the Leader is a big deal, but it just feels like whenever the plot gets too far, some random person shows up to distract us!

Artie gets a mean one! It's funny tho!

The Hulk just starts smashing stuff! He's angry that he's going to die, and the Leader sucks, so he's valid!

I still think the humanoids are stupid, but I like that the Leader has to control them himself!

Talbot is right, this is one of Banner's secret labs! But none of you idiots have talked to the Hulk to know if he's smart! He could have been a scientist this whole time!

No, Ross, the Hulk only pretended to be a robot that time he was a clown!

Even with the strongest brain on Earth, the Leader doesn't know not to judge a book by its cover!

Kirby, what the fuck was this? I know this wasn't in the script! I can't imagine what Stan said when he got your drawings for this issue and saw these panels!!

Well, they've both kind of been on the Avengers! But I think Talbot is about to try to arrest Rick Jones! I don't think President Johnson will allow that!

But Ross blows up the mountain, which means the Hulk needs a new lab, and fast!

The Leader didn't use teleportation for anything else!!

More Hulk!

Sam gets a nice one!

The Leader gives him a simple choice! The Hulk can just agree and then go back on it, but I don't know if he's going to lie so easily!

They go back to the base, and the army spots them and attack! This is where the equipment they need to keep Bruce as the Hulk is though, and if he turns back he'll die! So this is a threat to his life!

Rick, the Hulk surrendering isn't something they'll accept! I'd say you should leave and try to talk to them on his behalf, but Ross would ignore you too!

The Hulk gives Rick CPR, but without touching lips because that would be gay!

Hulk seemed to be Bruce Banner in his mind before, but now he's acting like the Hulk usually does!! I think this means I'm right that they're really the same person!

I guess the Hulk can fly now!

Hulk, please only say true things about the state of you and Doctor Banner, it's confusing enough to try to understand this without metaphors
