General Thaddeus Ross decides to sacrifice himself to finally defeat the Hulk. After getting rid of the Abomination as a threat to his plans, he is turned into "Red Hulk" with the help of a top secret project where for years they were studying the nature of the Hulk. Now General Ross has become what he hates the most, a "Hulk" the Abomination is alive, and in a clash of the titans between Red Hulk and Abomination, the latter takes the life of Betty Ross. Red Hulk full of rage and fury murders the Abomination, causing great destruction in his wake. Completely devastated and ashamed to become what he hates the most, he runs away trying to avoid anyone discovering that General Ross is the Red Hulk. The green hulk (in a misunderstanding) is devastated by the death of Betty Ross, the only thing he had in the world. So the Hulk sets out on the hunt of the Red Hulk for revenge. While that happens, Thor and the Fantastic 4 team up to protect the world from the unstoppable chaos of having 2 Hulks at the same time.
