WARNING: The following contains spoilers for The Immortal Hulk: King in Black #1 by Al Ewing, Aaron Kuder, Frank Martin, Erick Arciniega, and VC's Cory Petit, on sale now.

The Hulk has had a horrible time recently in The Immortal Hulk, with the Leader dragging Bruce Banner and the Devil Hulk off to meet the One Below All. This left Joe Fixit trying to protect the childlike Savage Hulk, and right after a one-sided fight with the Thing, they're now trying to stay low during Christmas.

However, during the King in Black one-shot, they end up in massive trouble against a Grendel symbiote, and it results in Hulk living through Marvel's version of Home Alone 2: Lost in New York.

That movie found Kevin McCallister lost in the Big Apple after boarding the wrong flight, becoming separated from his family again. The Sticky Bandits, Harry and Marv, would find him after he started staying at the Plaza Hotel, using up his family's credit card. This led to yet another chase as they had to hunt him down before he could get them arrested, but in Kevin's mind, it was all about saving Christmas rather than pranks for fun.

There are quite a few parallels in this story as Hulk roams through NYC lost in the snow on a very silent night. Firstly, he ends up fighting a Grendel symbiote that actually possesses cops and becomes a two-headed beast. They're his version of the Sticky Bandits, hunting him down in this wintery wonderland. And just like Kevin was on his own, physically and emotionally, Joe and Savage have no one -- especially the stronger Green Goliaths -- to rely on.

They're alone and depressed, which Kevin also feels when he starts missing his family. Here, Joe's missing the Hulk family too and it's weighing on his mind a lot because all he wants is for Savage to have a nice holiday season. What's interesting is both parties initially hated their families, only to now miss them. It shows that the selfish Kevin and Joe are indeed human after all. Also, just like Kevin marveled at a toy store, so does Hulk. He wants to relive his childhood but traumatic memories of abuse from his dad, Brian, come rushing back. It reminds us how much he hated growing up in the Banner household and why he longed for freedom. It's similar to Kevin, who felt at least a little bit neglected around the holiday season.

Later on, Joe lays traps for the beast in a mall, using loudspeakers and flames, which are tricks Kevin often used on his enemies too. Joe uses it to blast the symbiote off and then incinerate the beast, laughing like a kid.

To top it off, Hulk then lives out Kevin's dream as he plays inside a toy store, throwing a nod to when Kevin visited Mr. Duncan's toy store. It represented a place of love and goodwill, which is why he wanted to stop the bandits from robbing money that was supposed to go to charity. But in Joe's case, he was merely happy to protect the Hulk's childlike innocence and create a joyous atmosphere, if only for a night.
