"The truth hurts."
Storyline
Bruce heads to Washington D.C. to try and enlist Hank Pym's help in shrinking him small enough to reach Jarella's subatomic world. Enraged when he can't track down Ant-Man, Bruce turns into the Hulk and has to fend off a toxic glob that used to be a U.S. senator who was using Hulk's gamma irradiated blood to try and cure his cancer (which obviously turned out to be a bad idea).
