Marvel’s super-powered hero known as the Hulk uses his godlike power and strength to crush, destroy, and pulverize villains into submission on a regular basis. Now, with the “fully awesome” version of Hulk, Amadeus Cho finds a way to use the power to convert his blood into a weapon of destruction.
A story set in a time when scientist Bruce Banner left the mantle of the Jade Giant to supergenius Amadeus Cho, this iteration of the character gained the abilities of the Hulk after using nanobots to help him absorb gamma radiation as he saw fit.
While Amadeus shares more or less the same set of capabilities and powers as the OG Hulk, his superior intelligence and technical know-how have ensured that Amadeus’ perception of the Green Goliath is something completely new for fans of the character, while preserving the popular “Hulk Smash” feel.
Written by Greg Pack and illustrated by Robert Gill, “The Totally Awesome Hulk #19” serves as a prequel to the 2017 “Weapons of Mutant Destruction” event. It focuses on Amadeus going up against the infamous X-Men-related organization known as Weapon X.
Attacked on the edge of space by Adamantium cyborgs, with the dangerous abilities of Marvel mutants such as Old Man Logan, Sabretooth, Warpath, Lady Deathstrike and Amadeus, the organization quickly finds itself at a disadvantage, and that’s where its enormous strength comes into play.
As Lady Deathstrike’s razor-sharp claws bleed from her attackers, Amadeus quickly realizes he must improvise when he runs out of plans. So, floating in space with his green blood irradiated by gamma rays and dangling in space in front of him, Amadeus throws a few drops of the fluid with all his might at Hulk.
At that moment, he manages to transform his blood into projectiles very quickly, which end up tearing and exploding his body. Adamantium Cyborg ends up being destroyed with the greatest of ease, as if he were silk.
Obviously, if Amadeus Cho’s version of the Hulk can perform this feat of superhuman strength, Bruce Banner and a few others could, so next time a Hulk gets hacked, be more careful.
In short, Hulk’s strength is a unique characteristic of his, which makes him feared and respected by all creatures in the Marvel Universe. Therefore, when this strength is combined with his ability to weaponize something as small as drops of blood in battle, Amadeus Cho proves his boldness and heroic courage in a way that no one would expect.
