  • Magnificent Bastard: The Justin Hammer who faces off against The Freak is far more intelligent and charming than his Sacred Timeline counterpart. Hammer infiltrates and disables the security of Stark Industries and turns the Iron Legion into his own personal army. Hammer intends to steal Tony's Hulk formula and use it to become a superhero to revive his reputation and company. Hammer runs circles around the heroes and foils Maria Hill's attempts to apprehend him by sending in his robots to intercept her. Hammer also lures Happy Hogan/The Freak into a trap, planning to kill him and harvest his body which contains the serum. When foiled, Hammer reveals that he had kept the Hulkbuster Armor as a precaution and uses it to nearly defeat the Freak. Hammer stays a funny, charming villain throughout the episode and even takes his defeat with mere bemusement.
