Synopsis for "The Hulk Must Die!"

Having been returned to his own time, the Hulk is quickly spotted once again by the military which renews it's mission to capture the Hulk. In order to aid in their efforts, Glenn Talbot enlists the aid of Banner's replacement Konrad Zaxon.
As Talbot works to try and contain the Hulk so that Zaxon can find a means of destroying the brute, Rick Jones reveals the secret of the Hulk's identity to Betty Ross. Meanwhile, Zaxon has less than honorable intentions for capturing the Hulk, he has devised a scheme to use the Hulk's body to power his weapons in a bid to take over the entire world.
With the Hulk trapped in a trench that has an anti-matter force field keeping the Hulk prisoner, Zaxon dawns a suit of armor and a weapon which will siphon the "organic energy" from the Hulk's body and shuts off the anti-matter barrier keeping the Hulk at bay. As the Hulk climbs out of his prison, he is instantly blasted by Zaxon's weapon. This story is continued next issue...
