STORY ENGINES

ACT I

While hiding out in Brazil and working on a cure for the Hulk, Banner receives word from the mysterious Mr. Blue that more data is needed for a potential cure. General Ross tracks Banner and a chase ensues led by a special forces ace named Emil Blonsky. Banner transforms into the Hulk, tears apart his aggressors, and escapes. The next day, he wakes in a rainforest, intent on making his way back to the States.

ACT II-A

Back in the States, Betty Ross gives Banner the data he needs for Blue’s potential cure. Later, Ross tracks Banner and triggers his transformation into the Hulk. The Hulk takes out Ross’ forces, cripples Blonsky. Betty calms the Hulk, but they are both fired upon by a Gunship. The Hulk protects Betty, takes out the Gunship, and escapes.

ACT II-B

Banner meets Blue (Dr. Samuel Sterns), undergoes a procedure that represses the Hulk, and seemingly cures him of his gamma poisoning. Later, he discovers Sterns has replicated his blood for the cure. He demands they destroy it, as Ross is intent on using it for a super soldier serum, but before anything can be done, Banner is tranq’d and Ross’ men infiltrate the lab.

ACT III

Blonsky forces Sterns to use Banner’s blood and turn him into the Abomination. The Abomination then takes to the streets, leaving a wake of death and destruction. Knowing that the Hulk is the best shot they have, Ross lets Banner loose and the Hulk and Abomination face off. After a fierce battle, the Hulk gains the upper hand. Betty screams at the Hulk to stop before killing the Abomination, which he does.

EPILOGUE

Banner lives in a remote cabin in the British Columbian wilderness. He meditates and his pulse rises. His pupils turn green and he smiles: He can now control the Hulk by his own free will.
