Hulk continues waving the defeated Prince Phalkan in front of the cameras while his sister as well as his teammates try to get to Amadeus trapped inside. The two versions of the boy rage against each other, until eventually Maddy notices a throbbing vein in the monster's head - a secret morse code.

| He's been doing that trick since we were kids... |
Meanwhile Alpha Flight shows up. They along with the Champions urge Hulk to hand over the Seknarfian criminal when Maddy uses her blaster to bring her brother's condition under control. It only goes so far though, as Hulk is able to crush the blaster before powering down.

| PUNY GUN! |
He Hulk-claps the heroes back until Captain Marvel appears, trying along with his friends to talk some sense into the beast. Trying to twitch out some codes again, Amadeus has his sister blast Hulk with Alpha Flight's degammafication satellite. It works for a second, but he Hulk-jumps into the sky and destroys it.

| Everybody dance now! |
Finally Odinson appears. Fresh from their battle on Sakaar, the unworthy Asgardian is spooling for a rematch. Still, as strong as he is, he's no match for Hulk. Jimmy Woo and Black Panther use the diversion to attack, but Hulk finally realizes the problem is Amadeus Cho. Inside his mind, he picks up the green Cadillac and tries to smash his sensible inner-persona with it... What's gonna happen next? We'll have to wait to find out as this series is left to be concluded.
Obviously I'm not the only Hulk fan who's ready to see Bruce Banner back, as Greg Pak has been driving the Amadeus-In-The-Trunk bit for the better half of a year. The series concludes with it's next issue, but continues with the Immortal Hulk - retaining it's Legacy numbering. I'm probably one of the few who's excited to keep the old numbering, but it's good to know what you're reading. A lot of these Greg Pak tales have been difficult to always figure that out. I give these two issues an 8/10.
