Following up on a mysterious teaser released released a few weeks ago showing a combination of Hulk and Wolverine in a glowing green vat, Marvel has revealed the details of their next crossover event comic, Weapons of Mutant Destruction. The seven-part crossover with Weapon X kicks off in June with Totally Awesome Hulk #19, and will even feature its own "Alpha" one-shot, drawn by series artist Mahmud Asrar. It's unclear whether Greg Land will draw the Weapon X issues, as well as whether there are enough porno films with Hulk-like body types for him to "reference." The news was revealed in a promotional interview with writer of both series and the crossover, Grek Pak, on mighty Marvel media partner website ComicBook.com.

In the event, Amadeus Cho will team up with the cast of Weapon X to fight the Weapon X program, and involves a project called "Batch H" that the program is working on as a side project to their whole "exterminate all mutants" thing, and which is related to the teaser (reprinted in the promo image above). It's not clear that we can literally expect Cho, Logan, Sabretooth, Domino, Warpath, and Lady Deathstrike to fight a gamma-powered clone of Wolverine, but now that we've seen it, we'll be extremely disappointed if it doesn't happen. Sadly, all Pak would say when asked in the interview about the image was, "Yeah, it's pretty interesting isn't it? You know, we'll see what Batch H is all about. It looks pretty amazing, doesn't it?"

Here's the solicit info for the first issue, and the event's checklist:
