About this ebook
Banished to outer space, the Hulk crashes on a treacherous planet where he incites an uprising in this adaptation of the blockbuster graphic novel.
When a rogue general’s attack on the Hulk outside Las Vegas ends in deadly tragedy, a group of Earth’s heroes known as the Illuminati must make a difficult decision. While scientist Bruce Banner is not a killer, his alter-ego the Hulk is a threat to everyone—including himself. The Illuminati’s plan is to trick Banner into boarding a space shuttle to repair a dangerous satellite, only to send him to a peaceful planet where he can harm no one and no one can harm him.
But when Banner learns of their betrayal, he loses control and transforms into the Hulk. In a fit of rage, he sets himself on a new course, crashing into the planet Sakaar where the tyrannical Red King rules through violence and anger. Captured and sold into slavery, Hulk becomes Green Scar, the planet’s mightiest and most popular gladiator. But his masters underestimate their new warrior . . .
Forging a pact with his fellow gladiators Miek, Brood, Korg, Hiroim, and Elloe Kaifi, the Hulk sets a foundation for a revolution. It will either improve Sakaar or destroy it—and help Hulk satisfy his hunger for revenge.
Adapted from the graphic novel by Greg Pak, Carlo Pagulayan and Aaron Lopresti.
