"That's what, nine gamma villains back in custody?" "Pretty good day, right?" "The Avengers won't trust you any more than SHIELD did." "Heh." "Good thing I've got the Hulk blood you st..." "What the heck is that?" "Turn around, Hawkeye." "Turn around right now!" "Go." "Go!" "How is this possible?" "The Leader's machine was destroyed..." "Samson!" "Avengers, remember who you are." "Anyone get the number of that..." "Widow!" "Attention, humanity." "That's... that's a restricted SHIELD frequency." "But that's no SHIELD agent." "I come to you with a message." "And that message is..." ""Do not be scared."" "The Gamma Dome that has formed in the American southwest is no threat." "It is a promise." "It is going to change the world for the better." "You are weak." "You suffer with your small minds and fragile bodies." "And you have plunged the world into darkness with your faults." "But I am here to save you." "I will remake the world in my image." "I will remake you in my image." "You will be perfect, like me." "And I will think your thoughts for you." "The Gamma energy will grow to envelop the earth and you will be transformed." "Your power will be my power." "Accept your future, for I am your Leader." "Welcome to Gamma World." "You're part of this, aren't you?" "Don't be stupid." "Hydra has as much to lose as anyone if that maniac takes over the world." "Clint, the Avengers were inside that dome." "They're gone." "What now?" "Not all of the Avengers were inside." "We have to find the Hulk." "Where do you think you're going?" "Bruce Banner is the foremost expert on Gamma Energy." "He and the Hulk have had run-ins with the Leader before." "He'll know how to stop this." "We don't have much time, then." "The Hulk was spotted in Northern Canada this morning." "There's a Hulkbuster operation about to commence." " We can..." " What do you mean "we," traitor?" "Come back here!" "You can't leave me like this!" "Look on the bright side, Widow... your new green skin will match your eyes." "Hawkeye!" "Hawkeye!" "Bring them to me." "Leave me." "My hammer... where..." "Ah, yes." "It is quite curious." "My Wrecking Crew could not lift your weapon, even with their strength enhanced by my gamma boosters." "And you of all the Avengers were not affected by my gamma energy." "Now tell me, why is that?" "Only those worthy of the thunder may wield Mjolnir, villain." "And as for your "energy,"" "mortal science holds no fear for an Asgardian." "I suppose if gamma energy has no effect on a thunder god, then you will simply have to serve as entertainment." "Come to me, Mjolnir..." "Not scared?" "You will be." "Let General Ross know the Hulk is down." "The Hulk is down." "Hulkbuster unit to Ross we're taking fire from an unidentified bogey!" "We are bingo fuel and have to set down!" "Fall back!" "Go!" "Go!" "Leave Hulk alone." "Leave you alone?" "I just saved your green hide." "And now you get to return the favor." "I need some help." "Call the Avengers." "The Avengers are the ones I'm trying to save, not to mention the whole world." "There's a big green energy dome, turning everyone into gamma monsters." "You want someone to fight monsters?" "You should've asked them." "I don't need them, smart guy, and I don't need you." "I need Banner." "Banner's not home." "Now leave me alone!" "Listen, Bigfoot!" "If you don't give me Bruce Banner in the next three seconds, bottom line?" "I will take you down." "Okay." "You have to give me a minute." "He hasn't let me out in weeks." "Now Agent Barton, tell me everything you know." "You call yourself Leader, but what gives you the right to lead this world?" "You defeat your enemies with trickery, with the strength of others." "You have no honor." "You wish me to talk?" "Fine." "Why should I lead humanity?" "I am the most advanced mind the world has ever seen." "I think on a level normal human beings cannot begin to comprehend." "Look at this world, Asgardian." "Mankind is on the brink of destruction." "They need me." "Oh!" "Ay... gah!" "Ah!" "Wow." "You did all this while you were on the run?" "Yes, and don't touch anything." "Your skycycle collected quite a bit of data about the gamma energy the dome was putting off." "SHIELD likes to be thorough." "Ow!" "Hey!" "What'd you do that for?" "I just inoculated you." "That will temporarily protect you from the Leader's gamma energy." "We're going to have to do some of this en route." "There's not much time." "The longer people are exposed to the energy, the more likely the changes will become permanent." "I've located the epicenter of the dome, that's where the Leader will be with the Gamma Energy Generator." "That's what we have to destroy." "Well, you've just got all the answers, don't you?" "So how are we going to get to the Leader?" "The direct route." "You cannot win, you must know that." "I disagree, villain." "I played your game long enough to retrieve Mjolnir." "And now your game is over!" "What manner of..." "You feeble-minded fool!" "Of course I wanted you to retrieve your hammer." "I let you do it." "Nice hammer." "Now let me show you why they call me the Absorbing Man." "You asked before what gives me the right to rule?" "Because no one can stop me." "♪♪♪" "♪♪♪" "♪♪ ♪♪♪♪" "♪♪♪" "And without the Avengers, who is left to stand against me?" "You with the head, freeze!" "I knew you would come eventually, my old enemy." "But you of all people must realize this is for the best." "In Gamma World, no one will hunt you." "No one will try and cure you." "You'll be a king." "Everyone who hated you, who attacked you, they will be you." "Are you really going to try and stop me?" "No." "Not stop you smash you!" "Disappointing, but not unexpected." "Abomination." "You ready, animal?" "With the Leader's tech, I'm stronger than you." "I'm smarter than you." "And I am going to beat you to..." "You're either very brave or very stupid, archer." "You're vastly outnumbered." "That's okay." "I've got an arrow for each of you." "What do you think you are accomplishing?" "Your toys cannot hurt my creations." "Yeah, I'm not a genius like you, so I found one." "And he made me some new arrows." "His name is Bruce Banner." "Maybe you've heard of him?" "Indeed I have." "Great..." "Fight back!" "I cannot, for I am concentrating." "I can't move!" "What's going on?" "You were foolish to take on the essence of Mjolnir, mortal." "The hammer's power is not yours to control, it is mine." "My genius cannot be defeated!" "I've planned for every contingency!" "Too bad you're such a lousy shot then, cucumber head." "I'll always beat you, Hulk." "Do you hear me?" "I'm better than you in every way!" "But I've got something you don't backup." "We got incoming!" "The two of you think you can defeat me?" "I have already calculated a thousand ways to destroy you both." "Destroy?" "You do not know the meaning of the word, Leader." "You really want to hurt the Leader?" "This is how." "No!" "It would have been glorious." "I was creating the perfect world all in my image." "That's the problem." "You're ugly." "Footage from your skycycle confirms your story... the Widow is working for Hydra." "I sent agents to her location, but she was long gone." "She's good, I'll give her that." "You're cleared, Hawkeye." "Your SHIELD special agent status will be reinstated." "You mean the same SHIELD that locked me up?" "Yeah, no thanks." "I'm going after the Widow on my own." "Here's another option... join us." "Join the Avengers." "I don't think so." "Look how easily the Leader took you guys out." "I'm better off on my own." "And what of you?" "Will you walk away as well?" "You are indeed a noble warrior, Hulk... one who has saved the Avengers, and now helped save the world." "I would trust you with my life." "Will you trust us?" "Uh..." "I'll stay if Cupid stays." "You want to go, jade jaws?" "Right here and now?" "Let's do this!" "Okay." "This is going to be fun." "Hello, Mister Blonsky."
