Nick goes to Norway to recruit Thor for the team, but he turns them down. Bruce turns himself into the Hulk, giving the Ultimates their first mission.
Publisher’s description
With no super villain activity to justify the massive Ultimates budget, the team is moving headlong toward obsolescence. But when Bruce Banner makes a terrible mistake, the Ultimates will finally have the showdown they need.
