Hulk annual #6

Issue(s): Hulk annual #6
Cover Date: 1977
Title: "Beware the Beehive"
Credits:
David Anthony Kraft - Writer
Len Wein - Co-plotter
Herb Trimpe - Penciler
Mike Esposito & Frank Giacoia - Inker

Review/plot:
A robot appears in Dr. Strange's home and teleports Dr. Strange away.

While Strange deals with his abductors - the Beehive scientists that created Adam Warlock (aka the Enclave) - the Hulk has a Groo-like adventure traveling across the world trying to find his friend. It is very bizarre and has a comedic style to it without actually being funny. Eventually the Hulk makes it to the Beehive and helps Strange hold off the scientists' new creation - Paragon - until it decides on its own to go back to sleep.

I love this panel where the Hulk isn't impressed by Paragon's rage.

Paragon will later emerge from the cocoon as the female Adam Warlock, aka Her, alias Kismet, alias Ayesha.

Quality Rating: C-

Historical Significance Rating: 3 - first Kismet (as Paragon)

Chronological Placement Considerations: Placing this directly after Defenders #41 because it takes place while the Hulk is at Strange's house.
