7 Marvel Comic Events That Could Make Incredible Movies

6. World War Hulk

The Event: After being forcibly sent off-planet by the Illuminati, a secret group of heroes, the Hulk spends his time in exile building his fury and gathering a war party. Returning with a vengeance to Earth and hell-bent of revenge, the Hulk systematically works through the group€™s members, leaving massive destruction in his wake.

How It Could Work On Film: There€™s been a lot of chatter that elements from Planet Hulk, which chronicles the time he spends on an alien world, might be incorporated into his appearance in Thor: Ragnarok. If this is true, a logical follow-up to these events would be World War Hulk. One of the more resonant aspects of the event is the belief by many that Hulk was in the right to punish the Illuminati for banishing him. Since the Hulk seems to have left of his own volition in the MCU, they would need to find a new way to direct his anger.

Perhaps he€™s retroactively angry at all of the participants in Civil War for their shortsightedness. An angry Hulk could offer an incredible secondary antagonist to the likes of Thanos, and could be the sort of Earth-based conflict that was previously mentioned during the Infinity event, allowing Marvel to seamlessly incorporate multiple celebrate comics into one film.
