The big problem with this issue is that it contains two stories, one of which is totally unnecessary. Jesse Blaze Sinder's lead story is an incredibly strong characterfocused tale that is honestly one of the best Hulk stories I've read in a very long time. He absolutely nails it. It would earn a Must Read verdict on its own. The problem is that the second story is the complete opposite and drags this one down. You still need to read the first story, which is why I'm recommending that you buy the issue, but it might be best if you stop halfway through. Read Full Review
I am all for anthology comics about specific characters, especially ones about the Hulk. It's not even that the backup reprint from Marvel Comics Presents is a bad story, but that it's the only other story in the comic book. As far as anthologies for $4 about the Hulk this really isn't a worthy purchase. However, the story is so good it would be difficult to pass up. If you like to read Hulk stories about Banner the drifter that has a great story and fun artwork then go ahead and pick this one. Just be warned that it's the only original material in the comic. Awesome story, shame on Marvel. Read Full Review
"Hulk: Let the Battle Begin" has one good script and one good set of finished art, and it's a pity they weren't matched together somehow. Still, it did let me learn that Snider's a writer to keep an eye out for, and while I might have been disappointed at first to find this one-shot was just burning off an inventory story, it's a nice enough comic at the end of the day.
