Chapter 9: Norwegian Wood

AT PROFESSOR CHARLES XAVIER'S SCHOOL FOR GIFTED CHILDREN...

JEAN GREY: So the Monad was given to Hulk by Enchantress.

MR. FANTASTIC: And she's an Asgardian!

NIGHTCRAWLER: Mein Gott!

MR. FANTASTIC: That's exactly what I was thinking, Kurt. In this case, the God of Thunder himself...Thor.

CYCLOPS: Oh great.  An Avenger.

COLOSSUS: Those guys is all be think their говно not smell like говно.

CYCLOPS: Hulk, you were once an Avenger, why don't you go talk to Thor and see if those guys can help us.  Reed, the rest of us can stay here and analyze the Monad for any weaknesses.

MR. FANTASTIC: Good idea, Scott.  Hulk, as a member of the Avengers, you've got to reach out to Thor.

HULK: Mmmm.  Hulk not leave Avengers on such good terms.  Things...complicated.  But Hulk try.

LATER, AT THE AVENGERS MANSION...

BLACK WIDOW: Oh jeez, guys.  You'll never guess who's at the door!

CAPT. AMERICA: Wait, wait...lemme guess.  It's either Wolverine or Spider-Man trying to join up?

BLACK WIDOW: Not this time.  It's the Hulk.

HULK: Um.  Hi guys.  Hulk need talk Thor.

THOR: What dost thou need of me?  Is my cunning and strength as a warrior needed to save Midgard yet again?

HULK: Hulk not know Midgard from hole in ground, but know Hulk need Thor's help.  Enchantress give Hulk baby.  Baby is...Monad.

 IRON MAN: A Monad? What's that?

HULK: Hulk not go over again.  Read Chapter 4.

IRON MAN: Wow.  That's some pretty advanced tech.  There's only one group I can think of that could have created such a complex virtual organism...A.I.M.

CAPT. AMERICA: A.I.M., eh?  Damn those evil eggheads.

CAPT. AMERICA: Hulk, no offense, but why should we trust you?  After you left the Avengers to room with Red Hulk and Grey Hulk?

HULK: Wait, wait, wait.  As Hulk recall, Hulk asked to leave because--

HAWKEYE: Hulk, it was nothing personal.  But the plumbing bill was out of control!

HULK: Bygones bygones, Clint.  But Hulk need Thor's help.  Enchantress trick Hulk, give him Monad that end world.

THOR: Thy bowels are toxic, Hulk, but thine heart is pure.  By Odin's grundle, I shall help thee.  I know Amora the Enchantress well.  Yeah, verily, where she reveals her treacherous self, my brother cannot be far behind...

THOR: Methinks this be the work of...Loki!

CAPT. AMERICA: Thor, you go with Hulk and see if Loki and Enchantress are behind this.  Tony, you and Clint head over to A.I.M. and see what those nefarious nerds are up to...
