Iron Man Has Unleashed the Ultimate Weapon Against the Immortal Hulk

In engaging Captain America, this “Devil” Hulk plays off his insecurities around the recent Hydra takeover (as seen in Secret Empire) and for Jen, Hulk starts telling her that she’s just like him, something that terrifies her and distracts her just enough for him to punch her so hard she flies a clear two miles before she lands. Throughout the fight, while the Avengers are growing more and more convinced that this is one battle they’re not going to win, Tony Stark is talking about bringing his ultimate weapon online, something everyone else is against.

As Jen is knocked clear into the next town, Tony realizes they’ve run out of options. After confirming that the townspeople are all evacuated — and despite Captain Marvel’s pleas for him not to do what he’s about to do — Iron Man unleashes the Helio Laser.

The Helios Laser is laced with concentrated UV radiation, meaning that they hit Bruce Banner with a beam of hard sunlight. This new Devil Hulk only comes out at night, leading Tony to theorize that a hit of pure sunlight like this would have a greater chance of taking him down than any conventional (read: physical) methods. As the dust settles, the Avengers survey the damage and see that the entire town of Georgeville appears to be decimated. In the center of the smoking crater is the charred skeleton of Bruce Banner.

Bruce dying isn’t that shocking, of course, as he’s perished in almost every issue of Immortal Hulk so far, but what the Avengers want to know is if they’ve done enough to bring down the Hulk. As Captain America laments the friend in need that they’ve let down, Black Panther says that what they’ve done here today is only temporary and that Hulk will soon rise again. “Back from death. Rested. Refreshed,” says T’Challa, “Would we survive that, Captain?” If a Helios Laser isn’t enough to finally kill him, then maybe Bruce Banner’s alter ego really has earned the nickname of the Immortal Hulk.
