History

Hulk Jr.'s history is presumably similar to his Earth-807128 counterpart's. Logan became Bruce Jr.'s adoptive father[1][2] after killing his father Pappy Banner.[3]

After the Multiverse was destroyed and remade into Battleworld, Logan ended up the domain of the Wastelands, a recreation of his native reality of Earth-21923,[4] with Bruce Jr. Dani Cage helped Logan take care of Bruce Jr. After finding the head of a Ultron Drones, Logan left to investigate the robot's origins.[1]

Logan would disappear for 7 years, forcing Dani to take care of Bruce Jr. by herself. The pair were forced to leave Hulkland and go on the run due to the power vacuum left after Logan killed the Hulk Gang and the Punishers and that were those were either wanted to turn Bruce Jr. into a weapon or kill him before he became dangerous. Logan eventually returned after spending time in Earth-616 and was rescued by Dani and Bruce after being fed on for weeks by cannibals.[5]

After stopping off in Kansas City, Missouri, Logan revealed that he was dying and wanted to be buried with his family while Dani explained why she and Bruce Jr. were on the run. Then they discovered that Bruce Jr. had gone missing. They found Bruce Jr. in the Kansas City Public Library fighting off the Tranquility Temple who to kill Bruce Jr. in the name of peace. The Temple then unleashed the Hulk-Killer robot who badly hurt both Bruce Jr. and Logan. Logan eventually defeated the Hulk-Killer by electrocuting it. He and Dani then took Bruce Jr. to a compound where Logan's old friend Forge lived for medical treatment.[6]

Days later, Logan's old enemy Sabretooth and an army of his clones attacked Forge's compound. While Logan was distracted by the clones, Sabretooth captured Bruce Jr. and escaped. Logan and Dani chased Sabretooth to Hammer Falls and discovered that Sabretooth was working for Mister Sinister's Weapon X Program where he hoped to use Bruce Jr. to create a new army of soldiers.[7]

Logan and Dani freed Bruce Jr. and battled Weapon X, which made easier when Dani lifted Mjolnir and became the new Thor. In the end, Logan killed Sabretooth and Dani killed Mister Sinister. Bruce Jr., Dani, and Logan then traveled to Sacramento where Logan's family was buried where Logan finally died and was buried next to his family by Bruce Jr. and Dani. Dani told Bruce Jr. that Logan wouldn't want them feeling sorry for him and that they should finally a place to call home.[8]

2 years later, Bruce Jr. and Dani settled down in Isleton, California. After meeting with Dwight Barrett, the new Ant-Man, Isleton was attacked by the forces of the new ruler of Amerika, Doctor Doom. Bruce Jr, Dani, and Dwight took care of the forces and discovered that the Doom leading the forces was a Doombot. The three then met a new Captain America who told them that he could lead them to Doom.[9]

The four traveled together to stop Doom's domination of Amerika. After receiving a radio broadcast asking for help against Doom's forces in Cedar City, the four traveled to the town only to discover that Doom's forces had left weeks ago and was now overrun with vampires. After the vampires were taken care of, the only surviving resident the synthezoid Viv Vision was repaired by Dwight and joined their team.[10]

Bruce Jr. hacked into the head of the Doombot that attacked Cedar City and found coordinates for other towns Doom's forces were attacking with the latest one being Osborn City in Ohio. However, this turned out to be a trap set by a group of aging villains wanting to wipe out the young heroes. All of the villains were eventually killed, but it was learned from the others that Dwight had set them up so Doom wouldn't people he cared about.[11]

Dwight was allowed to remain with the team, and they later confronted Doom in New Latveria. Doom knew they were coming and sent out a team of Doombots to stop them. Bruce Jr. and Viv Vision were able to disable the Doomsbots, the young heroes were able to defeat Doom. They then learned that Doom was dying of cancer and had set up everything up that happened to them so they could die by their hands. Doom was ultimately spared as he was dying and his rule was over. Bruce Jr., Dani, and Viv then began the process of rebuilding the country.[12]
