Tom Brevoort, Marvel’s Executive Editor, posted an entry of what could have been World War Hulk. Some parts of the draft went through the final storyline of World War Hulk, however, some parts didn’t. Had the original draft gone through, Emma would have made an appearance in Incredible Hulk #107.

INCREDIBLE HULK #107

Tony wakes up in the arena. Stripped of his armor. Sword and shield on the ground before him. And an obedience disk hammered into his chest. Forced to fight other captured heroes. (This story is continued in the MIGHTY AVENGERS ANNUAL.)

Strange and Emma Frost try to attack Hulk’s mind. Inside his mind, they meet the Caiera, Hulk’s slain Shadow Warrior love, who’s fighting alongside Hulk. Is it the soul of the real Caiera? Or just his memory of her? Who knows — but it’s simultaneously exhilarating and heartbreaking — even melts Frost. They see why the Hulk is fighting.

Strange finds Banner inside there. Tries to get him to help, to take over. But Banner understands. He’s accepted the Hulk — he sees that the Hulk is the hero, and that Banner is the monster.

Hulk fights back, defeats Strange. And with Hiroim’s help, exiles Strange to the Crossroads. (This story is continued in the NEW AVENGERS ANNUAL).

Like ExodusCloak pointed out to me, Emma had a much larger role in the final draft of World War Hulk (don’t forget, World War Hulk: X-Men).
