Sometimes, all you need in a comic is a good old-fashioned battle, which this issue brings to us happily. It's a quick read and advances Hulk leading into The Incredible Hulk. Read Full Review
Throw a Crossroads Devil on the train and you've got the recipe for another great addition to this already stellar Hulk story. Read Full Review
Giant-Size Hulk #1 gives readers a new story hair-thin plot that just gives Hulk an excuse to smash yet another forgettable monster. The second half is a reprint of a much better Hulk story. If all you want in a Giant-Size Hulk comic is mindless smashing and nostalgia bait, get this comic. For everyone else, skip it. Points were reduced for the shameless cash grab. Read Full Review
Yeah, this wasn't really needed. Don't get me wrong, it's another solid issue of Hulk from PKJ. That said, there isn't much reason for this to exist as far as I'm concerned, unless this ends up influencing the main series in a larger way at some point down the line. One thing I do hope the main series takes from this is that Broccardo should totally be the fill-in artist for the book whenever Nic Klein isn't drawing it.
A decent issue, although I'm not sure it was necessary to have this outside the main comic. It also doesn't really progress the plot at all. It continues Hulk's monster-of-the-week theme where he battles a demon on a train.
A giant-size waste of money. I get the impression that PKJ didn’t want to include anything in here that would be important to the main story, so it just feels like a waste of time.
