Synopsis

Doctor Of Madness! The Hulk has arrived in Jude, New Mexico, and the sheriff, Bradley Martin, is not pleased. He covers the Hulk with a pistol and tells him to come along quietly. The Hulk replies that he was not looking for trouble, only for food, but now men in "funny hats" are waving guns at him and making him mad. The sheriff fires, but the bullet only irritates the green-skinned giant, and he reduces the street to rubble with his fist. Then the Hulk leaps away, and the sheriff sends his deputies after him. When the Hulk stops, he orders the sheriff they are to capture him. As the deputies race away in their squad car, they trail the Hulk from a distance until the sheriff cools down and calls them back in. Jessica Drew, who is secretly Spider-Woman, happens to arrive in town, and as she steps off the bus, she overhears the deputies. She is looking for a secret network that is smuggling criminals out of the country, and she is keeping a low profile. She finds a telephone booth in a nearby restaurant and calls her partner, Scotty McDowell, in Los Angeles. He commiserates about her bus trip and tells her he knows no bounty on the Hulk. The Los Angeles Police Department is expecting her to bring Johnny Yen back for trial, he continues. He wishes he were there to help rather than confined to a wheelchair, but she reminds him that he helps by collecting information, without which she would be unable to capture anyone. Then she hangs up, saying that she will check back later. At a villa several miles distant, Dr. Benway is telephoned by Sheriff Martin with the news that the Hulk is heading his way. Benway thanks Martin for the information and tells his assistant, Li, that they have immediate business. However, they also have a patient on the operating table, and Li declares that if they stop, he will die.
