The first film from Marvel Animation Studios is set for home video release on April 23rd. It features Iron Man and the Hulk battling Zzzax.

From Entertainment Weekly:

Zzzax is a character long familiar to fans of the Hulk, a sentient being created by accident after a terrorist attack on a nuclear plant caused a bizarre chain reaction. The living energy mass that results, dubbed “It!” on the cover of its first comic book appearance in August 1973, is a kind of giant, lumbering brainwave vampire, consuming the electrical impulses in the heads of every living thing it encounters.

Here’s Jeff Loeb, Vice President of Marvel’s TV division, on Zzzax:

“We see his origin in the movie. It’s what would happen if the entire Eastern seaboard [electrical grid] went out. The two heroes meet up, thinking of each other as to blame.

“Calamity ensues.”

I like calamity, especially when it’s Hulk brand calamity.
