The story begins with the Hulk being captured by the government and subjected to a series of experiments. These experiments are designed to cure the Hulk of his gamma radiation and return him to his human form, Bruce Banner. However, the experiments are unsuccessful, and the Hulk escapes from captivity.
With nowhere else to turn, the Hulk seeks refuge in a small town called Caldwell. The people of Caldwell are initially afraid of the Hulk, but he eventually wins them over with his kindness and compassion. However, the Hulk's peace is short-lived. The government sends a team of soldiers to capture him, and the Hulk is forced to fight for his life.
The battle between the Hulk and the soldiers is one of the most iconic scenes in the Hulk's history. The Hulk is outnumbered and outgunned, but he refuses to give up. He fights valiantly, and he eventually defeats the soldiers.
The battle is a turning point in the Hulk's life. It is the moment when he finally realizes that he does not have to be a monster. He can be a hero.
