Bruce Banner seeks Creel to find information about the Cube, the prison for Gamma irradiated villains. However, Creel absorbs the metal of a spoon and attacks Banner to provoke him so he can turn into the Hulk and fight him. Creel is defeated and sent to the Cube.
During the breakout, Absorbing Man and Abomination helped the Leader take over the Cube.
