INCREDIBLE HULK ANNUAL 11, 1981
https://readallcomics.com/incredible-hulk-annual-10/

by Bill Mantlo, pencilled by Rick Leonardi, with a small platoon of inkers


When Hulk wanders across Kansas into the grounds of a nuclear missile base and rips things apart, combined with a missile base commander who for fanatical reasons wants to use the situation to launch a nuclear attack, sends an ICBM missile into the air, that as a result has Ronald Reagan on the presidential hotline with then-Soviet premier Leonid Breshnev, trying to advise Breshnev of the situation, and avoid an all-out Soviet counter-strike on the U.S.
The situation is dire, but some of their conversation is quite funny, especially once they've narrowly averted all-out nuclear armageddon, and rulers on both ends of the hotline conversation breathe a deep sigh of relief when the crisis passes. I thought both leaders' personalities were portrayed well.

A nice time capsule of a story, of the Reagan era.
