Summary
The Exiles find themselves in Canada, and Mariko has to provide warmth. Calvin gave up Angel's wings when he mimicked Phoenix (he can do 5 maximum), and now he throws up. He hasn't been sick since he was 10; Kevin makes jokes, while John and T.J. notice vibrations, and then Hulk comes smashing through. The team waits to see if he'll be friendly. He won't.
Disliking fire, he throws rock at Mariko, then tosses Kevin a mile, and then, surprisingly, shrugs off Clarice's teleportation. Calvin's optic blast and John's punch do little, and Hulk punches John into a tree and runs away.
Alpha Flight shows up: the Exiles are on their turf, and they start to explain, when John realizes Shaman is him.
Wolverine takes them to Dept. H, which under his leadership has 4 Flights. Heather says Calvin has radiation poisoning from mimicking Hulk. He manifests Wolverine's bone claws, to the surprise of Wolverine, who was never attacked by Magneto. Mariko gets a new, less revealing costume, of unstable molecules.
Shaman says he took over when Michael Twoyoungmen retired, having been his student. Thunderbird is irritated to see how balanced he might have been, but Shaman says he isn't a monster but a hero.
Wolverine accepts the Exiles' help; Hulk came to Toronto battling Voxon, and now he's Canada's problem. The Tallus says that everyone on this "Goliath Project" will disappear. Clarice discusses this and her leadership of the team with Calvin, kisses him, and leaves.
The Weapon X team has been lurking all the while, also tracking Hulk.
