Story Title: Fort Apache, The Hulk!
Summary:
Everyone at the concert at Gordon University is running for their lives as Dazzler is chasing after the Hulk, trying her best to settle him down and keep anyone from getting hurt.
She catches up at a lounge where she distracts him from throwing a pool table at people. Instead, he throws it at her! She dashes out of the way and starts charging up for some sort of attack.
Meanwhile, in an office in the World Trade Center buildings, somebody has hired the Enforcers, who they had broken out of Riker's Island, to kill Dazzler's manager, Harry S. Osgood, who he refers to as a "mass murderer"!
Back at the university, Dazzler can't get charged up enough, because she's too busy avoiding Hulk's relentless blows. Finally, she skates as fast as she can and uses a support beam to propel her skates first at Hulk. She bounces of with no effect and slams into a wall, knocking the wind out of her.
Hulk is about to make her pay for attacking him when a large regiment of soldiers shows up to try and take him down, but one example of Hulk's strength is enough to literally send them running. Then an army chopper drops gas on him, but he sends it down to a rough landing with a large, hurled chunk of stone. Then an Army tank configured with titanium grappling lines, wraps the lines around Hulk, slowly tightening them. He eventually breaks the bands and uses them to hurl the Tank through the air at what's left of the soldiers. They finally disperse and Hulk goes into the Hall of Scince "to be left alone".
Dazzler goes in after him, in case people are still in there. She is watched by the same mysterious stranger from previous issues. The Hulk scares off a kid in the lab, then begins to destroy everything, but when he sees test dogs in the cages, he stops and frees them, petting them and settling down.
Dazzler, beginning to understand how the Hulk feels from her previous experiences of being hated, decides to leave him alone and see if he calms down enough, but then soldiers, with some sort of extreme laser weapon, try sneaking in and shooting him in the back. Alison "Dazzles" them unconscious, but the Hulk thinks she is trying to attack him again.
He picks up a file cabinet and threatens to crush her, but once Alison tells him she was wrong to think of him as a monster and shows him that she will not fight him because she really IS afraid of him, he throws down the cabinet, complaining of his head hurting from thinking too much.
Dazzler does a subdued, ballad-like light show to mesmerize Hulk into sleepiness and he turns back into Bruce Banner, all under the watchful eye of the stranger. She sneaks him out in her show's equipment trunks and eventually sends him off with some money to see him through.
Alison gets back home and calls Dr. Paul Janson to see if he wants to catch lunch, but his nurse, who apparently wants Dr. Janson to be with her instead of Alison, lies to her, telling her he's in surgery. She hits the sack, while outside her apartment building, the stranger decides that she could be "useful" to him and that he must make contact soon.....
Personal notes:
I wasn't sure how Alison was going to stop the Hulk, but eventually she does by NOT attacking him. Sometimes the best way to solve a problem is to fully understand it first. Then you can address it from an informed perspective.
The stranger is continuing to hound Dazzler, watching her, apparently sizing her up for some future inquiry. I wasn't too sure of what that might mean for her.
And that jealous little nurse of Dr. Janson is really getting on my nerves. Alison has enough problems as it is. Can't she at least get one thing she really wants in life?
