It's Hulk Month, and that means we're unleashing new Hulk content every day, including fresh Gamma-blasted Digital Highlights each week! For this week's Hulk Month Highlights, the focus lies on some of our favorite Hulk Team-Ups. AVENGERS #1
Witness the creation of one of the greatest super hero teams of all time, the original Avengers! After being manipulated into battling one another by the evil Loki, Iron Man, Ant Man and the Hulk stop fighting long enough to assist the heroic, hammer-wielding Thunder God Thor in an epic battle with his sinister step-brother. With the unification of these four super heroes, the Marvel Universe would forever be changed—even though the Jade Giant leaves the group at the end of AVENGERS #2! Heck, we all know the Hulk's best left alone anyway!
FANTASTIC FOUR #349
Spider-Man, Wolverine, Ghost Rider and the then-Gray Goliath himself find themselves trapped in Subterranea by that measly Mole Man! They're in pursuit of a lady Skrull using Mr. Fantastic to help her gain possession of an egg containing an inorganic technotroid—an indestructible synthetic entity. Our band of heroes is hot on her tail but will they make it in time to keep this weapon out of her hands? If they are successful, how will they escape Mole Man and his millions of Subterraneans?
DEFENDERS #2
Despite being instrumental in the formation of the Avengers, friction between Hulk and his teammates led to ol' Greengenes quitting the group almost immediately. The not so jolly green giant then partnered with Doctor Strange, Sub-Mariner and Silver Surfer—bringing together again an unlikely group of super heroes known as the Defenders! With a team this powerful, it would seem no enemy could present a challenge…right? Except for one: the dread Dormammu!
MARVEL ADVENTURES HULK #5
When Bruce Banner visits the house of Doctor Strange, the good doctor tells him he may have a way of freeing Bruce from the curse that is the Hulk. Bruce seems less then enthused. Doctor Strange opens a gateway to the Dark Dimension, the domain of the dreaded Dormammu which allows the evil under lord to take possession of a monkey and lead the heroes into his realm. How will these two doctors fair against the evil that awaits them in the Dark Dimension, and will Strange have the right prognosis for Bruce's "sickness?"
WOLVERINE #8
What do you get when "Casablanca" meets Marvel? You get Gray Hulk teaming with Wolverine in a partnership sharing similarities with Rick and Ilsa. When the Hulk gets involved with an underground crime circuit, he and Wolverine go on a tear with fists and claws, taking care of organized crime the Marvel way. Will these two titans be able to trust one another or will their individual natures prevail? Here's looking at you, Hulk.

Agreed. Who doesn't love a good ol' Hulk/Wolverine team-up or battle?
