History Awesome / ImmortalHulk

** In same said issue, Vapor chews out Henry Peter Gyrich for not getting ready to fully secure the Hulk, no doubt wasting time on currying the favors of Orchis which led to Ironclad getting maimed and Vector becoming blind. After getting told to go to Hell, Gyrich responds he's already there by having no choice but to call on the Avengers.

* Shadow Base has Banner pinned down in an abandoned laboratory, pummeling him with ultraviolet radiation through special emitters to prevent him from transforming while Bushwhacker hunts him down. So [[TheBusCameBack Joe Fixit takes over Banner's body]] and manages to work out a solution: the emitters can't be turned off, but they ''can'' be cranked up and focused. After all, all it takes is a few levels of compression and ultraviolet rays become X-rays. A little more than that, and they become '''[[FeedItWithFire gamma rays.]]''' [[BodyHorror Cue the mother of all]] [[HulkingOut Hulk Outs.]]
* A Meta one - Immortal Hulk has for two months in a row ''outsold the main [[CashCowFranchise Batman]] book''. Not any special anniversary or milestone issue, not the 1st issue, not a part of a crossover - just regular issues #18 and #19. This usually doesn't happen, the only books outselling Batman being CrisisCrossover issues or very hyped up miniseries or 1st issues that always get a huge boost from speculators. Moreover, Hulk has never before been considered this popular to be among books that can compete with Batman at all. This all proves how much of fan and critical acclaim the book has gained.

* Joe Fixit makes his return in another awesome strategy: he bursts out of the normal Hulk body, which is kept aboard a space station, and blows his way out. Because the station's personnel [[WrongGenreSavvy aren't aware]] that the Hulk is now weaponizing BodyHorror and wrongly assumed that he'd attempt to change sizes and prepared accordingly. Bonus points for [[ObstructiveBureaucrat Henry Peter Gyrich]] [[LockedOutofTheLoop not being informed of Hulk's new transformation method.]]

* The crowning moment comes in issue #13 - a weakened Hulk is being overwhelmed by the hell monsters his father Brian (and by extension the One Below All) have unleashed upon him. Absorbing Man, in a moment of heroism, gives back all the Gamma Energy he took from Hulk, allowing the latter to come back to full strength and charge at his father. Brian Banner blusters that Bruce isn’t his son but Hulk mocks his father saying: "''Look at you, still trying to figure me out —learn the rules, find out the secrets. Do you think you ever knew what I was old man? Here's your special theory dad, the only equation you'll need! HULK IS HULK!''" and blows Brian and One Below All away with a ShockwaveClap.

** Bruce's one-sided conversation with Devil Hulk explains not only how Joe could do this, but why he's been in human form up until now. Devil "left room" in Joe on a hunch, meaning that he's the one who emptied his Gamma reserve, causing him to lose the vulnerability the other Hulks had towards Cosmic Radiation and instead allowing him to use it as a power source. In other words, Devil put together a plan to counter anyone who used Cosmic Rays against him or the other Hulks ''almost thirty issues before they even came into play.''

* After being beaten to a pulp, disintegrated, and sent down to hell, Joe turns the tables on the One-Below-All and the U-Foes in truly spectacular fashion. Using the Cosmic Rays X-Ray's been bombarding Hulk's body with, Joe transforms into a Red Hulk, driving back the One-Below-All and breaking through the seemingly indestructible Red Door to resurrect him and Savage. The comic ends with a restored and Hulked-out Joe, with glowing red veins signifying his newly-gained Cosmic power, staring down the [[MassOhCrap utterly horrified U-Foes]].
