Overall, this volume is hit and miss with me as it's mostly Joe Fixit stuff. Definitely cool Marvel goodness in this book. We also get Doctor Doom and the Thing, referencing Secret Wars, and the return of a very familiar face. This is something we take for granted nowadays, but seeing it in the 70's and 80's comics its still cool to me. We get a team up of sorts with Spider-man, and while the story is pretty straight forward, I always love seeing that Marvel cohesion of everyone living in the same universe and knowing the same information. Not that there's a lack of Joe Fixit, cause there definitely isn't, but there are a couple of adventures in this volume that are much more traditional Hulk stories than mob enforcer Hulk stories. Im not a fan of Joe Fixit, but with this volume, it seems that Peter David is starting to bring us back to regular Hulk.
Not quite sure what the point of her being there is other than for eye candy. David spends a lot of time developing the new character of Marlo. It's nearly two issues full of a good ol' fashioned slug fest that's aimed right at the young kid in you.Īfter that it's a few issues explaining just what happened to the Hulk after the last Gamma bomb (which turns out to be yet another detour although it was a enlightening) and then heads back to Vegas to conclude many of the subplots there. Doom is involved and sets up a confrontation between the new Thing and the new Hulk. The next story immediately jumps to a two-part crossover with the Fantastic Four where the Thing has also gone through a transformation. The grey Hulk has grown up a little bit from the green Hulk, but this Hulk has been abused so his perspective is skewed.
Makes you feel pretty useless, doesn't it?" It's the rationalization of a child, who's been hurt and is bitter. It begins with a two-part crossover with Web of Spider-Man and while the plot is a little bit ludicrous, it was all necessary to get a peek into this new Hulk's thought process as he argues with Spidey, the master of responsibility: "So if you help, people can get hurt, and if you don't help, people can still get hurt. Despite the multiple change of directions of stories, this volume was a big improvement over Vol.
