The Incredible Hulk #154
In "Hell Is a Very Small Hulk!", the Hulk’s desperate attempt to shrink himself to subatomic size lands him in a chaotic showdown inside Ant-Man’s lab, where the Chameleon exploits the situation to hand him over to Hydra. With the giant now reduced to a microscopic scale and hunted by plague-ridden rats, Ant-Man rushes in to help—but even he can’t stop the Hulk from vanishing into the unseen world of the very small. Written by Archie Goodwin and illustrated by Herb Trimpe, with inks by John Severin, colors by Mimi Gold, and letters by Artie Simek, this 1972 Marvel classic features a cover by Trimpe and Severin.

Hulk breaks into Ant-Man's lab and starts drinking stuff to try and shrink himself to subatomic size.

Hulk escapes into the air ducts but Hydra sends in a group of plague carrying rats to finish him off. Ant-Man arrives to help Hulk out but is unable to prevent the jade giant from shrinking out of sight. Meanwhile, Betty leaves Project Greenskin to get her life together.
