Story Featuring Hulk

Storyline

Bruce and Betty are falling from eight miles high in the sky but Bruce is able to turn into the Hulk and cushion their fall. They end up on an island where Hulk does his best to nurse Betty back to health. This includes saving her from a gang of volcano monsters who try their best to squish her. Betty is picked up by a passing military helicopter and Hulk secretly hitches a ride.
