History
Amadeus Cho was not your average teenager, not even above average could define this extraordinary teen. After making history on an internet game show called "Brain Fight" he became known to the world as Mastermind Excello, teenage super-genius. An unknown agency tried to track the boy down, destroying his home and possibly his family in the process. Running away with his only companion being a coyote pup, agents tracked him down but not before Amadeus ran into to another misunderstood genius with awesome power: the Hulk. The Hulk protected Mastermind, who gained a boost in his confidence and promised to find the unknown agency.
Civil War
Sometime later, a terrible incident in Stamford, Connecticut killed 612 including the schoolchildren. The "Stamford Incident" gave rise to the Superhuman Registration Act and sent S.H.I.E.L.D. to apprehend the unregistered Mastermind Excello. After outsmarting some S.H.I.E.L.D. agents, Amadeus discovered a former hide-out in New Mexico, one belonging to his friend the Hulk. There Amadeus hacked into the Baxter Building security network and discovered that a group of heroes such as Mr. Fantastic of the Fantastic Four and the Avenger Iron Man had sent the Hulk into exile in outer space. Using a special phone line, he informed Reed Richards about his discovery and it was revealed via satellite that the Hulk wasn’t where the Illuminati thought they had sent their former friend. Amadeus left Reed thinking about his betrayal toward his former ally and friend while Amadeus set off to find the Hulk.
World War Hulk
Finding She-hulk de-powered by S.P.I.N. tech Cho restored her powers and tried to recruit her to his cause. They were promptly attacked by Doc Samson who had been looking for Walters since she attacked Iron Man. With the S.P.I.N. tech disabled Walters quickly defeated Samson. Walters declined in joining Cho and chose to get revenge on Stark using the legal system, but put him in contact with Hercules and Angel who owed the Hulk due to an altercation when they where part of the Champions.
Cho then used Angel’s money to buy a submarine. The trio went off to recuit Namor. Wanting no part of the Illuminati’s plot to begin with Namor dissmissed Cho’s idea. Namora decided to join the three in her cousins place.
Cho’s group offers their help to Hulk who dismissed them but was forced to accept help due to General "Thunderbolt" Ross creating collateral damage in his attack. SHEILD eventually recuited Cho’s team to protect the non-evacuated civillians. Cho eventually met Rick Jones but didn't see eye-to-eye on the issue at hand. Cho’s group met up with Scorpion to find and free the captured heroes. Seeing the way the heroes were being treated caused Cho to confront the Hulk alone.
Cho attempted to show Hulk that he wished to create a safe haven for him but was attacked causing Hercules and crew to come to Cho’s aid. The Hulk left after hearing Cho’s thesis that his anger was what killed his loved ones and that Banner was what kept them loving him.
When Zom possesed Stark’s Hulkbuster armor, Cho and crew with Wong’s help captured the demon. With Hulk defeated Cho and Hercules became prisoners of SHEILD.
