Synopsis for "Incredible Hulk"

Reprint of the 1st story from
Incredible Hulk #234
(originally printed as Battleground: Berkeley!)
Fred Sloan has brought the Hulk to a rooming house in Berkeley, California, and is shocked to learn that one of the tenants -- Trish Starr -- has a past affiliation with the gamma-spawned man-monster. Trish explains of her very complicated life involving the super-hero community starting with the time that Ant-Man saved her life from her insane uncle Egghead. How she discovered that her former boyfriend, Kyle Richmond, as a costumed hero known as Nighthawk, and her association with the Defenders after she lost her arm in a car bomb explosion set off by her uncle. Lastly, she explains her encounter with the Hulk, when she was possessed by the mystic known as Shazana and was saved by the Defenders. With the explanations out of the way, Trish takes Fed and the Hulk in to meet the rest of the tenants who are shocked to find the Hulk in their home.

Meanwhile, at Gamma Base, the hero formerly known as Marvel Man recounts his encounter with the Hulk in San Francisco to Clay Quartermain and Senator Hawk. After finishing his recounting, the hero tells them that after the failure of S.H.I.E.L.D.'s Super-Agent program he managed to get a security job at Project PEGASUS. Before leaving, he tells them that his new codename is Quasar. After Quasar's departure, Senator Hawk asks why Doc Samson wasn't present, but Quartermain isn't sure. Samson is actually in the room where General Ross is recovering from his mental breakdown. He wonders what could have triggered said breakdown when General Ross begins to speak. Ross offers a one word explanation, the name of his daughter: Betty. At that moment, Betty and her estranged husband Glenn Talbot are having dinner in New Mexico. The two once more talk about the big decision that they are marking. Glenn has his reservations, but Betty tells him that what they are doing is for the best. After kissing Glenn on the cheek, Betty retires to her hotel room.

Back in California, the borders that share a home with Trish Starr are unsure how to deal with the arrival of the Hulk in their home. They are also not happy with the fact that he is eating all of their food. Fred tries to convince them that the Hulk is not a threat as long as they don't anger him. However, the Hulk overhears all their talking and begins to lash out. It takes both Trish and Fred to calm the Hulk back down again. As they bring the Hulk to a room for sleep they remark on how angry the Hulk is an how a reversion back to Bruce Banner won't be happening anytime soon. They also remark how their friends are no longer living up the anti-establishment ideals that they all grew up with and wonder if their generation squandered the decades since they became "free thinkers." As they talk about this, one of their housemates goes to a nearby payphone. Seeking to earn some extra money he puts a call in to an informant for the Corporation.

This information reports the location of the Hulk back to Curtiss Jackson who decides to use this news to try and eliminate two thorns in his side: The Hulk and the Machine Man. That night, agents of the Corporation attack the rooming house. With O'Connor disguised as Machine Man, they manage to kidnap Trish. Immobilizing the Hulk with paralysis gas, they tell the brute that if he wants Trish back to meet "Machine Man" at an address in Central City. After the Corporation thugs leave, the effects of the gas wears off, and the Hulk lashes out, vowing to rescue Trish from the man he believes to be Machine Man.

Synopsis for "Ant-Man"

Reprint of the 1st story from
Marvel Feature #4
(originally printed as The Incredible Shrinking Doom! / The Beginning:)
Hank Pym and Peter Parker are working in Pym's lab when a gangster steps in and tells them to warn Dr. Curt Connors that he and his crew have kidnapped Connors' son and they want the new drug that Doctor Connors has been working on. Pym doesn't know Parkers' identity as Spider-Man but Hank's identity is public so they go off to stop the kidnappers and retrieve Connors' son. They can't tell Connors because any stress will turn him into the Lizard.

They confront the criminals but their leader produces the kidnapped boy and explains that he's been infected with a fatal virus and that Ant-Man and Parker (Peter doesn't put on his costume for this fight) will stop or he will not give the antidote to the boy.

The boy escapes and Ant-Man demands that he be allowed to go rescue him, but the kidnappers tell Ant-Man that they won't let him go unless he and Parker allow themselves to be injected with the drug, first. Allowing it, Ant-Man and his dog, Orkie, goes off to find the boy, but on the way he discovers that he cannot grow to his full height again once he's shrunk to just above ant-size. Parker, tied-up in the next room, escapes and changes into his Spider-Man garb and defeats the kidnappers, retrieving the drugs. The duo and the boy are cured but Ant-Man has discovered that he still cannot grow to full-size.
