A race of winged creatures once lived on Earth. As humankind began to dominate the planet, these bird like people used their highly advanced technology to build a city in the sky. They disdained contact with other races and lived for thousands of years. Gradually, their civilization began to decay. Realising they were headed for extinction, the bird people constructed a monument to their achievements, a living repository for all their knowledge. It was an android with two brains, the Bi-Beast. The upper brain possessed all their technical wisdom and lower one all their cultural scholarship. Since the machines that kept the sky city afloat were supposed to run forever, the Bi-Beast was never taught how to repair them and kidnapped Bruce Banner and Betty Ross to aid in there repair. |
