The Dark Hulk takes delight in
tormenting the defeated Prince Phalkan and boasting about it.
Amadeus' sister Maddie Cho is in contact with Black Panther and Atlas
Director Jimmy Woo and they want her data on Amadeus Hulk; she
doesn't trust them and prefers to confront her brother herself. She
races to the scene on a levitating disc while elsewhere Spider-Man
(M. Morales) and Ms. Marvel (K. Khan) learn of the situation and hurry
over. Hulk is attacked by Phalkan's guards and uses his captive as a
shield. Maddie tries appealing to Amadeus buried deep in the Hulk's
psyche (displayed as Amadeus locked in the trunk of the car Hulk is
driving). An alien guard shoots Hulk in the head, allowing Amadeus to
escape from the trunk and run off. Hulk caches him, threatening to
kill him but Amadeus reminds him that they are both part of the same
person—which causes Hulk to freeze up under the attacks of the
guards; Maddie's attempts at distracting the guards leads to her
being in peril. Hulk makes a deal with Amadeus to let him have his
way in exchange for rescuing his sister. Hulk tries to persuade
Maddie that he is still Amadeus in control but Amadeus, back in the
trunk, is able to send signals via a throbbing vein in Hulk's neck,
telling her what to do. Sasquatch and Alpha Flight arrive to pick up
Phalkan but Hulk refuses to turn him over. Ms Marvel and Spidey
arrive and try to convince Hulk to follow the law as Alpha Flight are
the legal authorities and Hulk still refuses. Maddie, using the
formula for gammas blockers that Amadeus had sent her in Morse Code,
blasts the Hulk causing him to start to transform back into
Amadeus—but he quickly recovers, smashes Maddie's gun, and sets
himself to fight his friends....
