Black Bolt banishes six rebel Inhumans to the un-place for treason; Lockjaw takes them there but on his way back to the Great Refuge, he tangles with the Hulk whom he also takes to the un-place; Under the guidance of Maximus, the Hulk joins up with the evil Inhumans and they make their way back to the real world to remove Black Bolt from his throne; Maximus uses the Hulk to gain acess to an ancient power source but even this is not enough to dethrone the silent monarch of the Inhumans; Realizing that the Hulk is an ally (after they beat on each other for awhile), Black Bolt offers to let the Hulk live in peace with the Inhumans but the jade giant declines the offer.
