Iron Man & Hulk: Heroes United Page #3

Jarvis, power down the reactor!

I got this.

What's it doing now?

It's evolving.

It's copying us.

Which means we're probably

in deep trouble.

Hey, electric breath!

Let's see what you do with repulsors.

You eat them, apparently.

Zzzax

destroy!

Jarvis, tell me you got something.

The creature is pure energy.

I'm afraid it has no weakness.

It must.

Wait, what's this thing's frequency?

Zzzax's frequency is 96.2 megahertz.

I've got an idea.

Retune the repulsors

to a matching modulation.

It's time we kicked

that creep's high voltage butt.

Iron Man!

Jarvis?

Stark, you okay?

Power at 12%, sir.

Recommend immediate recharge.

Duly noted.

Hulk! Here he comes.

Hulk.

Now,

Zzzax destroys!

Hulk, you...

You Okay?

Everything is dark.

I can't see.

It's okay.

It's only... It's only temporary, green.

It's UV damage to your cornea.

They call it welder's blindness.

ME,

my armor's leg servos are damaged.

I can't move.

Looks like we're in a cemetery.

A creepy, disturbing cemetery.

Good thing I don't believe in omens.

Guess I spoke too soon?

What's that smell?

What's going on, Stark?

You're not missing much.

We're just about to get eaten

by a few hungry something or others.

Jarvis, what are we up against here?

Based on my scans, these creatures

appear to be the Wendigos, sir.

A legendary cursed beast

rumored to consume

anything in its path.

No need to fret.

The Wendigo tale

was created to frighten children.

They do not actually exist.

That's not helping, Jarvis.

Get behind me.

I'm not exactly going anywhere.

Hulk, duck!

Punch,fight

Behind you.

Dodge, back!

Where are you, Stark?

Under your big, honking foot.

You mind?

I'm not crazy about organ failure.

Got an idea.

You can be my eyes.

I'm not a backpack, Hulk.

All right, here they come.

- From where?

- From everywhere.

Hulk...

Smash, left. Forward... No, duck!

Big Uppercut.

This is better than a video game.

Help, Stark.

Okay, okay. Grab, right.

That's right.

Good, good, just scream it all out.

The Wendigos are gone?

My armor scanners are down,

but yeah, I think so.

You know,

we don't make such a bad team,

when we're not

smashing the snot out of each other.

Maybe.

Hold up. My facility's on the move.

What's going on, Stark?

Zzzax is pretty clever

for living electricity.

He's positioning

the ship right over the power plant.

His creation caused a blackout,

so I figure he's going to use the plant

to reach the power grid to somehow

suck up all the power he can,

like a giant electric leech.

But why not just come down?

Drain it straight from the generator.

Zzzax has to stay in the air.

What?

What happens to a lightning bolt

when it hits the ground?

It hits the ground and loses its charge.

Hulk, you're a genius.

Or, well, definitely, you know,

smarter than you look.

Yeah?

But then again,

you'd kind of have to be.

Don't make me step on you again.

So, you got a plan, metal britches?

I'm thinking, I'm thinking.

We gotta get up there somehow.

Can hear him buzzing.

He's not far.

You think you can Hulk-jump us

back up onto the ship?

If you can be my eyes.

Great.

Easy, green.

All right, we're gonna leap straight up

into the facility, you got me'?

Angle yourself 40 degrees left.

Forty degrees, what?

Even if I wasn't blind, I wouldn't know

what you're talking about.

Just turn left.

A little more.

That... No, too much. There you go.

Okay, steady.

Launch!

Okay, all right.

What do you say

we try that one more time?

Close enough.

You know those planes cost me

50 million bucks, right?

They're not worth it.

Now just tell me where to go.

All right, all right.

About 100 paces left.

Your other left, genius.

And try not to make a racket.

You know, you're about

as stealthy as a T. rex.

Little help.

Okay, you're gonna want

to turn left up here,

in three, two, one...

Okay, I think we're finally here.

It only took half the night,

but we made it.

Yeah, next time, you get

zapped in the face and carry me.

Okay, I get the point.

All right, look, there's a cable to

recharge my arc reactor with

beside you.

You're gonna want to plug it into

the unibeam projector in my chest plate.

That's my head.

Lower, a little lower.

Okay, I think you got it.

Now go to the left.

My left.

Right. Okay, your left.

I'm gonna slip into some work clothes.

Just...

Take it easy, Hulk.

Stark, can you fix my eyes?

I'll do my best, big guy.

Just give me 30 seconds

to armor up, okay'?

The Mark VII armor.

What do you think, Hulk?

Did you forget I can't see?

Right. Well, I'm wearing a new suit.

It's untested and probably a little buggy,

but it's got better shields

to keep Zzzax out.

Jarvis, you remodulate the repulsors?

All energy weapons

have been tuned to 96.2 megahertz,

which will repel the

creature's frequency.

All right.

Now it's time to fix you up, big green.

How's the vision?

Everything's still kind of blurry.

You're familiar with laser eye surgery?

Now hold still. This won't hurt a bit.

Easy as one, two...

Hey!

Eyes work good enough to see.

I don't need a laser zapping them.

I'm trying to help.

Look, I know we got off on

the wrong foot today,

with me blasting you and all,

but we've got to work together on this.

Comprehend??

This is bigger than both of us, Hulk.

I know that, Stark.

Thanks for trying to help.

No problem.

All right, so here's what

I figure's happening.

Zzzax is gonna use my ship

like an antenna

and drain all the power from Earth.

We can't destroy the grid.

We'll leave millions of people

in the dark.

But we can bring Zzzax down

and ground him

if we take out my ship.

Crash your iron castle?

I like it.

So, what are we waiting for?

Let's get smashing.

Hold up, Hulk.

You want sparky to

zap your eyes again?

We need to insulate you somehow.

You got something Zzzax can't fry

in my size?

I think we do, with a little tailoring.

I named it the Hulkbuster, after you.

Well, what do you think?

Zzzax consume all!

Consume this!

I don't think so.

Smash?

Smash.

Stupid gizmo!

Easy there, cowboy.

Gotta steady yourself.

Not as good as smashing,

but not bad either.

Let's see you drain Earth dry

when I bring down your condenser.

Shields.

Sparky doesn't miss a thing.

Humans inferior!

Zzzax superior!

He's tricky for living lightning,

I'll give him that.

Hulk, use your gauntlets.

Smash him back to sparksville.

How?

Your gauntlets are tuned with the same

frequency as Zzzax, so punch away.

With pleasure.

Finally, time for some Hulk smash.

Keep it up, mean green.

I'll take out the turbines.

Full power to unibeam.

One down.

Unibeam recharge in 90 seconds.

Speed up the process, Jarvis.

Redirecting power from

the repulsors now, sir.

I'm gonna go check on big green,

see how he's doing.

Quit standing around

and crash this thing, Stark!

I'm working on it!

None may stop Zzzax!

How we doing on that unibeam?

Thirty seconds, sir.

Humans are all parasites!
