Synopsis for "Creatures on the Loose"

Following the Red Hulk's attack, S.H.I.E.L.D.'s new helicarrier has crashed landed in the wilderness of New Jersey. In the aftermath of the crash, She-Hulk decides to take off and find the Red Hulk. Iron Man gets a status report from Maria Hill and learns that the only individuals unaccounted for are Clay Quartermain, Doc Samson, and General Ross. Stark orders her to find them immediately. However, before they can start searching for the missing, Hill informs Tony that the technicians have some footage that Tony needs to see. The footage is of when Doc Samson and General Ross paid a visit to Bruce Banner in his cell at Gamma Base to confirm he that he didn't find some way out. When they were satisfied that Banner was not the Red Hulk, Bruce offers his expertise to find out who this new Hulk is. Suddenly, General Ross steps in front of the camera and the two exchange words that are too quiet to be heard. This annoys Stark who wants to know what they were talking about and orders Hill to find someone who can find out.

Meanwhile, outside of Gamma Base, the Red Hulk is locked in combat with A-Bomb. During the fight, the Red Hulk is knocked into the front gate of the base. There the retinal scanners recognize him, but he smashes the security device before it can compromise his identity. Their fight takes them into the middle of the base where the automatic defenses kick in. However, the Red Hulk and A-Bomb are more powerful than the weapons. The Red Hulk gains the upper hand and begins landing blows that are strong enough to crack the earth. This causes a partial collapse of Banner's containment cell, activating the automatic gas jets to keep him sedated. However, Banner is worked up enough that he begins to transform into the Hulk. Up on the surface, the security systems activate robots based on the Harpy. The two mechanical birds try to carry the intruders out, but the two powerhouses manage to destroy the robots.

Boasting that nobody can stop him, the Red Hulk turns around to resume his battle with A-Bomb only to find that Green Hulk standing before him.

Solicit Synopsis

Not a flashback! Not a dream! Together again for the first time! The battle you NEVER thought you'd see - The Hulk vs. The Abomination! But... wait, we've seen that lots of times! Well... no you HAVE NOT. And it isn't just because superstars Jeph Loeb & Ed McGuinness are bringing it to you for the first time - it's because if you've been reading the Hulk (yes, we know there's one or two of you), it CAN'T be possible! But it is - AND IN COLOR - LOTS OF THEM! The pulse-pounding, gamma-spawned action adventure continues in Hulk #3!!!
