Yeah, just my thoughts exactly! Quiet issue without any big events, but still it's pretty nice to read.
• Dr. Leonard Samson is a gamma mutate and part-time super hero who recently came back from the dead.
• He's been wanting to discuss that with an old patient of his... But he's not here to see Bruce Banner.
• Take a seat on the couch, IMMORTAL HULK. It's going to be quite a session.
Rated T+
THE IMMORTAL HULK #15 is beautiful in every aspect of the book. Al Ewing plots and scripts the book impeccably. Joe Bennett fills the issue with incredibly detailed, beautiful art. Just a tremendous book all around. Read Full Review
Overall, this issue might be light on action, but Ewing took advantage of the slower pace to give the readers the answers theyve been clamoring for. If youve been following this book from the start, this is a must-read. It is, without a doubt, one of the most critical issues of the series, so far, not just for its main characters personal revelations, but also for the startling, game-changing cliffhanger.

The Immortal Hulk continues to show why it's one of the best comics on the stands today. It can seamlessly bounce from a huge fight scene to a few moments of reflection while catapulting the plot forward and developing characters that have been around for decades. It is an impressive book that never disappoints. From the looks of things, it's only getting started. Read Full Review
Ewing continues to knock out the brilliant psychodynamics with Immortal Hulk #15. Kyle Hotzs artwork and coloring by Paul Mounts shows how well they work together for a modern day dark and horrific style with an old-school touch. The artwork and colors on Ewings Samsons flashback story jump out and immediately catches the eye. I cannot wait to see who and what Ewing and his amazing talented team will shine the darkness upon next. Read Full Review
Ewing continues to knock it out of the park with the Immortal Hulk. What I love about this series is his exploration of an overarching theme: basically, what does death mean in the Marvel Universe (or to an extent, comics)? The obvious answer is that death is meaningless, but it's so much more than that in this book. It's about how death and resurrection shape these characters, and it's brilliant. Read Full Review
Another character-defining issue of an already seminal run, "The Immortal Hulk" #15 is one more entry of one of Marvel's best series Read Full Review
Immortal Hulk #15 is a wonderful blend of big, philosophical ponderings and superhero violence. Read Full Review
While there does feel like there’s a little bit more fat than usual in this latest installment of The Immortal Hulk, there’s still a level of care and craftsmanship to this breather of an issue that not only brings back an important character from Bruce Banner’s history with care, but also gives us further insight into the Hulk’s state of mind. (And given how consistently Ewing has been swinging for the fences this series, it’s telling that even his base hits still bring precision and skill.) Serving as a solid palate cleanser after the intensity of previous issues, The Immortal Hulk’s momentum proves to be as unkillable as its namesake. Read Full Review
A very good comic indeed. The Hulk Sampson interactions are very interesting and well-worded. I love how the "Hulk family" are now immortal. I can't wait until it is revealed why (or was it already revealed? I missed the first 10 issues). One of the best series out there right now (only beaten by Justice League Dark).
Man, this comic!
This series keeps getting better and better and I'm totally hooked on the Immortal Hulk.
This book never ceases to amaze me. one of the best issues from a stellar run!
While I don’t usually like political laced messages messing up a story Al makes it work here. The Devil Hulk is convinced he has a moral obligation to save us from ourselves and it works here. This is the best Hulk series ever written and I can’t imagine another version of Hulk ever being as interesting. The monster and the man, that makes us all realize we all have our own Devil inside.
Oh god, I didn't see this coming!
This series never fails to entertain me.
Wow.
Though if gamma people don't die, what about the vast number of Marvel characters with one-off hulouts over the decades?
Why are there only two critics reviews?
This book is so darn good. Big Al is nailing it. Love the classic characters, love the explanations, love the direction, love the art, love the horror feel. It’s just smashingly good!
Pick it up!
It would be fair for every review on this series to start with..Wow,! Every time I read an immortal hulk something makes me love it. This time it was the characterization of The Devil Hulk...the great deceiver? Misunderstood? Guess we'll find out...either way he wants to destroy the world. This issue really reminds you the Hulk comics has a great cast with deep rooted history. This is the what comics should be in 2020.(19)...
Al Ewing is serving a greatly crafted Hulk story. I never cared about Hulk aside from his HULK SMASH persona and have tried to read some other stuff but wasn't interested. This though has me hooked. More please!! Bennet is back and he's as great as ever. Jose and Mounts complete the team for some splendid visuals that make the book unique.
It's good to see Samson and Hulk just talking again as in good old times... I hated that evil Samson of 2008... And it seems he was dead since Fall of the Hulks, so it's cool I read it recently. And also gamma people are immortal now, so Rick Jones is alive as well. Yet I still can't remember when did he die... Just like Ross... Was it off-screen?
Doc Samson gets a nice chat with the Devil Hulk. It's revealing, but mainly only in small areas. Lots of continuity cleanup here -- particularly in Samson's own flashbacks. The big questions, particularly "Why ARE all the Gamma mutates resurrecting?" remain deliciously unanswered. This is a rather quiet issue, by the standards of the title. That still means it's a formidable and more than satisfying read.
THE GOOD:
-Thank god Joe Bennet's back. He really makes this series work.
-I love Leonard Samson.
-This issue had a really nice action scene. Samson vs. Hulk was as satisfying as it sounds.
-I liked what Al Ewing did with Hulk's recovery. Going from not being able to say "smash" to being the smart Hulk once again as the hole in his head slowly closed. Nicely done.
-Oh man, that splash page. Just, oh man.
-Holy crap. I genuinely did not expect the ending.
THE BAD:
-I don't know. I feel like coming off the tail end of Hulk in Hell, which was a pure masterpiece, it's hard for this arc to be as good.
This was a good read that really advanced the plot. The tone of this book is just so different than anything out the only downfall I have is as a new hulk reader it does rely on things of hulk past and I'm really not that in tune with hulk history. The art is excellent.
"Why are we still here?"
Well, I'll tell you why good Doctor. We're still here because this comic book is Incredible. How is it possible? 15 issues and not a single one of them was disappointing.
Joe Bennet comes back after a one issue break and treats us to a wonderful looking brawl between Doc Samson and "SMASH" Hulk. I just love these three small panels on which Leonard prepares to fight. Takes off his glasses, jacket, spits out a little blood and then proceeds to dodge almost all of Hulk's attack until the "Devil" Hulk takes back the wheel. Or, how I will call him from now, the "Dad" Hulk.
I haven't read much of Hulk before this one, so maybe it was done before, but I really like that Ewing acknowledges more
Doc is cool. Not sure why they just ditched Betty empty gravesite to go look at another empty gravesite but okay.
