History Monster / TheIncredibleHulk

** Issues #351 & 352--"Total Recall" & "Fervor": [[FalseProphet Grand Inquisitor Risuli]] is a cruel tyrant native to the Microverse who [[PlanetBaron conquered his home world K'ai]] and turned into a mass-torturing [[TheTheocracy theocracy]] that worshipped the Hulk. When the Hulk again came down to K'ai, Risuli decides to have him murdered so he can continue ruling through his [[ScamReligion false dogma]], systematically torturing dozens of rebels along the way and merely sighing "how disappointing" when one appears to croak.

* ''ComicBook/PlanetHulk'': The "[[TheCaligula Red King]]", real name Angmo-Asan, seemingly saved Caeira's life in a flashback from the slaughter of her village before enslaving her in the comic and revealing himself in the cartoon to be the architect of the attack in the first place to take her as a slave. In his [[GladiatorGames gladiatorial match]] against the Hulk, the Red King begins by slaughtering a group of the arena's survivors. Ordering the deaths of any who question the tributes he receives, the Red King dismisses the complaints of peasants, whom he compares to animals. In his rematch against the Hulk, the Red King tries to destroy the arena with a [[NukeEm nuke]], uncaring for the audience within the blast radius. When confronted about his atrocities, the Red King smugly proclaims killing to be his right, duty and pleasure. Finally defeated, the Red King tries to destroy the planet he is on [[TakingYouWithMe as a final act of spite]].

Learning that the mystic basket that could expand his powers was in the possession of She-Hulk, Beatrice attempts to persuade her, and when his assistant hurts She-Hulk with his spirits, Beatrice [[BadBoss punishes him by ripping his soul apart]]--not because of any standards, but because [[PragmaticVillainy he needed She-Hulk]] to give the basket to him to harness its power. To this end, he ripped out her fiancé's soul and used it as a bargain to retrieve the basket. After retrieving the basket, Beatrice performs a ritual to consume all of the souls in Earth to gain more power.

[[ComicBook/TheIncredibleHulkFutureImperfect Ninety years]] after [[AfterTheEnd the world is devastated by nuclear war]], the Hulk has changed his name to the Maestro and builds a city state called Dystopia out of the wreckage of New York City.

The Maestro has his SecretPolice patrol the streets, killing anyone who would oppose him. After the Maestro's forces have captured one of Rick Jones's rebels, the Maestro [[MindRape subjects the rebel to a machine which forcibly scans a person's mind, which puts him in a vegetative state]]. When Rick Jones uses [[Characters/MarvelComicsDoctorDoom Dr. Doom]]'s TimeMachine to bring the Hulk to the future to defeat the Maestro, the Maestro takes one of his slave girls hostage to force Hulk to surrender to him, before paralyzing the Hulk by breaking his neck and forcing one of his slave girls to [[RapeByProxy perform sexual acts on him]] without the Hulk's permission. The Maestro even murders an elderly Rick Jones, the man who was once his best friend, for opposing him. The Maestro also tells the Hulk he prefers his harem of slaves to his former wife Betty Ross, because his slaves don't talk back to him or have opinions of their own.
