Comments: The Viltrumites have arrived on the planet Fantania, and among them is one called Conquest. He appears to be a seasoned and dangerous warrior, clearly setting the stage for a future clash with Battle Beast.
Battle Beast launches himself at Colossus and Juggernaut, the deadly brother-and-sister team. True to form, he never hesitates, charging headlong into battle. The fight is brutal and gory, with Battle Beast doing whatever is necessary to defeat his opponents—even while hoping to be defeated himself.
The battle scenes are hard-core throughout. The action is intense, with every combatant striking to kill. No mercy is offered, and none is expected.
Prince Salaka has now returned to his former self and is ready to reclaim his planet. He has transformed from a timid weakling into a man driven by purpose, with his courage fully restored.
The sibling warrior duo are every bit as ruthless as advertised. They, like Battle Beast, devour their victims, and watching them do so is genuinely revolting. As they clash with Battle Beast, all three revel in bloodlust and violence.
Battle Beast comes across as an unstoppable force of death.
