** The Maestro, as would be expected from an even stronger version of the Hulk. There's pretty much nothing that can hurt him. Even Ulik's MegatonPunch barely elicits more than an "ow". Ultimately, he's not defeated by the use of force.
** Ruby Summers' showing in ''X-Factor'' didn't give much of a chance to show off how tough her ruby quartz form was. Here, the Maestro hits hard enough to nearly shatter her, but the fact she ''survives'' a punch from him at all is impressive in itself.

''Future Imperfect'' is a 2015 Creator/MarvelComics limited series written by Creator/PeterDavid and illustrated by Greg Land and Jay Leisten, with colors by Nolan Woodard.
The series is part of the ''ComicBook/SecretWars2015'' event, set at a time when reality has been remade and the only remaining planet is Battleworld, a patchwork of different realms held together by the will of ComicBook/DoctorDoom.
One of those realms is Dystopia, an alternate version of the city from David’s original ''ComicBook/TheIncredibleHulkFutureImperfect'' series. Like the original version, it's ruled by the Maestro, an aged, evil variant of [[ComicBook/TheIncredibleHulk the Hulk]]. However, ''this'' Maestro is a Lord Baron who’s appointed by Doom himself, not an independent tyrant.
And this time the rebels rising up against him include heroes with powers of their own (including some familiar faces returning from David’s ''ComicBook/XFactor'' run, as well as characters from the original ''Future Imperfect'' series).
Meanwhile, the Maestro has no intention of remaining Doom’s lackey forever and has started making plans of his own. Plans that may end badly for anyone who gets in his way.
The first issue was released June 03 2015.

* CompositeCharacter: There are a couple of cases where characters have titles or superhero identities that are usually associated with others.
** ComicBook/TheThing is Thaddeus 'Thunderbolt' Ross, a long-running Hulk antagonist, not Ben Grimm.
** The Ancient One is [[spoiler:Rick Jones, not the centuries-old magician who served as ComicBook/DoctorStrange’s mentor]]
* GodGuise: Ruby finds a man who claims to be the Norse god Odin lost in the desert outside Dystopia, so rescues him. On Battleworld, this isn’t an entirely implausible claim, as many versions of Thor serve Doom. [[spoiler: He’s not actually Odin though, he’s the Maestro in his elderly human 'Bruce Banner' form]].
