Dr. Rikki Keegan
Incredible Hulk
annual #11- Dr Rikki Keegan was an old schoolmate of Bruce
Banner's, and that is why she, when duped by the Leader, was led
to believe she was helping the Leader cure Bruce. Instead the
Leader was using her to help him develop a gamma treatment to
infect the world's water supply. Banner trusted her and that is
why he allowed her to withdraw his blood. Leader infected the
water supply to cause the entire city to catch the "Green
Flu". Dr. Keegan also transforms into a super intelligent
person. Leader explains his plan saying that some will change
others will just
die. When Hulk finds Leader's machines Keegan joins in the
destruction using telekinetic power. Since as a human Rikki was
more intelligent than Samuel Sterns her brain was affected even
more powerfully (or perhaps because she believed this to be true
it psychologicaly ipso facto is). Betrayed Leader shoots Rikki
with the antidote and leaves. The Avengers duplicate Rikki
Kegan's cure.
