The Immortal Hulk Omnibus

Product Information

Sure, the fact that God doesn’t explain himself to Hulk echoes the final confrontation between Job and Jehovah, where Jehovah declares that he doesn’t have to explain jackshit to Job about why his life has turned to shit. Nitpick – at one point in the Fox News sequence, the bloviating podcaster refers to the “public sector” when he means the exact opposite, viz. Unfortunately, those first five issues were deceptively good, because the story never reached those same highs in the following 10 issues.

Just take a look at the first issue with Hulk exploring the landscape of hell and you’ll see his writing at its best. It is not included in promotions available to our main range products, as stated in our terms of service. It builds with excellent pacing and it shows the darker side of the world, the creepy moonlit crack houses and mountainside caves.

don't worry, big guy, there's antibiotics for that now) you can’t help thinking hmm maybe this comic isn’t deep and meaningful, maybe it’s actually just kitsch?

But to obtain the answers he seeks, Bruce Banner will have to face roaming gamma experiments, a ruthless assassin out for his blood. What I did, genuinely, admire, though, was that Al Ewing doesn’t lose sight of what a Hulk comic is supposed to do. Some of the dust jacket was ripped and part of the back cover was torn off in multiple places at the top.Even when beloved 2000AD alum Al Ewing crafts an ambitious but pretty direct exploration of who (or what) Hulk is, every other page still needs to comment on how characters were dead, then alive, then a sleeper agent, then not a sleeper agent, then exiled in outer space, then arrested for failing to pay tax, then discovering they’re been secretly their own mother this whole time.

Then, however, they take a weird detour into morality, family strife, child abuse, DID personality splitting, 4+ different Hulk characters. Read the entire Immortal Hulk and despite knowing absolutely nothing about Hulk (aside from the fact that he's green and angry) I definitely enjoyed it. Rick was there at ground zero on the fateful day the Hulk was born, and during the early days when the Hulk was a mindless brute roaming the New Mexico desert, Rick was right by his side.

Bennett’s gnarly monster design is essential to the book’s body horror, with each issue he drew offering up at least one gruesome double-page spectacle – sadly, often spoiled in the omnibus by gutter-loss. I think Ewing asks questions that bear considering about mortality and morality, but the execution doesn’t fully land for me. Loved the MCU movies to bits, tho, and grew up with the Hulk TV show so, given how many praises of this I've read on comics sites recently (and having really enjoyed Al Ewing's Zombo strip for 2000AD), I thought I'd give it a go. And it put Doc Samson in place as Hulk’s mental health support, and ran a lengthy sub-plot involving a damaged version of Betty Ross. In reality, I read these issues as the first 3 collections of the comic, but as I read them all together I want to keep them together in 1 entry.Started ok-ish with some kind of mysterious horror vibe but quickly descended into the usual Marvel blend of shitty, pre-existing characters cropping up that may or may not have some kind of bearing on things. Posiblemente una de las mejores series modernas de Hulk en los cómics, Al Ewing no decepcionó en estas historias la forma en la que incorporo el elemento de horror en Hulk fue brutal y el arte de Joe Bennet y las portadas de Alex Ross solo lo mejoraron.

The first 5 is an incredible view into the Hulk as a true horror character who can't be killed, loses control, commits atrocities, and is struggling to find his way in life. This honestly reminds me of Alan Moore's run on Swamp Thing, in terms of how completely it revitalizes and reimagines the Green Goliath. Why was the One-Below-All trying to escape hell through manipulating and/or possessing Banner’s dad and the Leader. I love my green boy the hulk, nerd by day, rage monster by night, Jacklyn and Hyde all rolled into one.Read more about the condition New: A new, unread, unused book in perfect condition with no missing or damaged pages.
