Convict Joseph Timms escaped from prison only to drown in a Florida swamp. Years passed until one day the Incredible Hulk hurled a barrel of radioactive waste into the swamp, reanimating Timms' corpse. Timm rose as an inhuman Glob and lurked towards a nearby military base. Mistaking Betty Ross for his lost love, the Glob kidnapped her, invariably inciting a battle with the Hulk.
