There's not a soul, not even any god, who can claim they're stronger than The Hulk! Bruce Banner, the mild-mannered, well-intentioned man at the center of this universe has to battle with a huge power within him that comes out as The Hulk. As long as The Hulk exists he will have this superpower of immortality as well! In Marvel Comics, it's said he's given immortality thanks to his link to the powerful "One Below All!", making him one of the most potent heroes to be a part of the Marvel Universe.

To understand what made him this way, it's a wild story with a gamma bomb and the Illuminati!

You will see why everyone was talking about the Hulk! "The Hulk" made a family while on Planet Sakaar! But not only that. They embraced his unique strength. It seemed that "The Hulk" turned into a symbol for the people. A character that helped to give them peace.

In the moment of success, everything changed when "The Hulk" went on a venture with his wife "Caiera, and their friends. This group were together! As they went to the ship where he initially arrived on Planet Sakaar! The ship, for all those who love these Marvel Comics details, has a name- "Arch-E-5912" which brought these characters back to Earth and a shocking moment for this superhero. In a turn of events, as Hulk and Caiera are making their way on Planet Sakaar, things got very dire. The ship's engine had a core meltdown. Thousands of people died on this very ship.

What this traumatic loss led to for "The Hulk" was something the world hadn't seen before. An incredibly strong alter-ego called "The World Breaker," The Hulk and his allies started traveling throughout space, looking for revenge. A group who vowed to bring an end to the Illuminati.

Who exactly is a part of the Warbound, the incredible allies who teamed up with the Hulk? We can start with the very powerful group and they're more than just some random band of heroes.

They set off to take on some pretty impressive targets, looking for a huge battle to fight. It looks like, this Hulk was looking to defeat his enemies in the most ruthless way. He's not one to play around.

"Black Bolt" fell first as The Hulk was able to handle the Inhuman's supersonic power with a stunning amount of strength!
"Iron Man" couldn't hold a candle to his incredible power either!
The Fantastic Four
"She-Hulk", "Doc Samson," and "Rick Jones,"

The Hulk was not stopping! Avengers Tower fell victim to The Hulk's destruction! This might be one of those times where The Hulk has given a lesson about his own abilities to anyone watching and you'd know they aren't ones to stand in the way. But who else was trying to put an end to The Hulk?

You've seen all of "The Hulk's" rage! His destruction of an incredible number of heroes! But who was ready to face down this powerful being! The heroes made one final push to get this out-of-control superhero under control. One person was willing to go up against him.

"Doctor Strange" went all out trying to bring Bruce Banner and The Hulk back from the dark edge. In this special battle he got to tap into his mystical abilities and even brought an incredible being with the powerful "demon." A power of nature!

Doctor Strange tried to make use of a "superpower" and this didn't have the best outcomes. It led to a terrifying series of events where several innocent people got hurt!
Doctor Strange got to go toe-to-toe with the Hulk and got his chance to get him back to sanity, as it seems like his mission is to protect humanity.

But what about other characters? What about those that really love and appreciate The Hulk. As it appears that The Hulk's closest ally stepped in.

The power of "The Sentry, a strong superhero who had a lot of faith. He's super genius but struggles with his own sense of reality! And while, "The Sentry is ready to stop "The Hulk"! His connection to "Bruce Banner" goes back even before "Planet Hulk" took place.

It was a legendary duel of amazing might, a story that fans were waiting to see.

But things had an unexpected turn, "Miek," from the Warbound revealed that the ship crash was orchestrated as an action designed to get "The Hulk" to return to Sakaar to take on The Hulk's former friends, including those who supported his cause to get peace back into the world!

A very heartbreaking story for the Marvel Universe and it wasn't only sad, as he went back, destroying the people who had once supported his cause!

It seems the story takes an interesting turn. You'd have thought "The Hulk" would become even angrier.

You know this powerful comic book storyline has been considered one of "The Hulk's" most interesting!

The MCU even brought an adaptation of "Planet Hulk" into a blockbuster film called "Thor: Ragnarok"

But you might think there are some issues.

If you know anything about the Marvel series, their goal was to do something grand.

They got this "Planet Hulk" storyline. But it looks like they kind of lost it along the way!
They took on the plot for a Thor movie!
That gave this adaptation an interesting direction, but as fans watched it doesn't look as incredible.

The story of "World War Hulk" has a major twist! Marvel didn't completely ditch it out! You can still discover it by watching "She-Hulk" It's even more shocking, and this will really get "The Hulk" fans on the edge of their seat. Skaar was introduced as The Hulk's child!

It's interesting because he could end up as a powerful warrior in this amazing "Hulk"-centered movie.

You see, while Marvel hasn't given this iconic superhero his own movie, that doesn't mean they don't have some big plans. Even better, the story may just unfold into this massive saga, one where Skaar becomes this main figure and may get his chance in an epic "World War Hulk-style saga, just not for "The Hulk!" For now, it's an awesome idea to really appreciate the history of these Marvel icons!
