Incredible Hulks #620
Harrowed
As the God Squad prepares to face off against the Chaos King, Amadeus Cho advocates Hercules that they need the Hulks. Though the latter agrees, Daimon Hellstrom reminds him that they are too busy protecting Marlo Chandler so that the Chaos King's minions are trying to rip out the piece of Death in her to kill everyone who's in a deep slumber. Because the God Squad can protect her from their location, they decide to leave all hope up to the Hulks.
Back in Phoenix, The Hulk pounces at his resurrected father Brian Banner, who has turned into a replica of the Devil Hulk. However, Brian proves to be more powerful than his son, as he feeds off his fears and hate. Jarella rallies the Hulks and tells them that they should show no fear towards Brian. Instantly, Brian's Hulk form crumbles and he is reduced to his human form, before disappearing, calling his son a monster once more.
Zom and Abomination take advantage of this distraction to storm the bunker Marlo is hiding in. As A-Bomb fights Abomination, Zom tries to pull out Death from Marlo. She does let it out, but instead of just giving it to him, Marlo uses her powers to free Doctor Strange from Zom's thrall and kill Abomination. Just as everyone breathes easy, the Hulks are whisked away by Hercules, who asks for their help against the Chaos King.

Continuity Notes
This story takes place between the events of Chaos War #4 and 5.
The Hulk relives the murder of his mother, which was first depicted in Incredible Hulk #377.
Hulk refers to the Red She-Hulk as his wife. Bruce Banner and Betty Ross got married in Incredible Hulk #319. However, Betty considers their marriage null and void since Incredible Hulks #612 after she died in Incredible Hulk #466, even though she was later resurrected in Fall of the Hulks: Alpha #1.
Although the previously deceased characters all return to death at the conclusion of this story — in the typical Marvel fashion — some of these characters refuse to stay dead. The following characters are resurrected later on:
Doc Samson turns up alive again in Civil War II #0, the details to his resurrection are detailed in Immortal Hulk #15.
The Abomination was later resurrected by the Brotherhood of Shield in Hulk (Vol. 3) #2.
Inductive Reasoning
Bruce Banner goes over his files to determine if Korg would be a viable member of his team of Hulks. Turning into the Hulk, Banner battles Korg one-on-one.
As the two fight, they recount how Korg once faced off against Thor years ago during an ill-advised attempted invasion of Earth. He also recounts how Korg survived the Maw on Sakaar and was a proud member of his Warbound, later fighting by his side during the Hulk's war on Manhattan.
When Korg is able to hold his own against the Hulk, it convinces him that Korg will fit right in with his team.
