Parental Advisory
This is the time to jump onboard this story if you missed the first part of Ewings run. Issue #26 started the title in a new direction, and this issue really kicks everything into gear. From the disturbing confidence of Banner/Hulk to the unsettling final panels, youll find Ewings new take on an old classic impossible to put down. Turn away at your own risk. Read Full Review
Joe Bennett's art is amazing. From the subtle, quiet moments with characters talking, to the brutal and beautifully destructive fight at the end, the art in this issue is gorgeous to look at. Read Full Review

Immortal Hulk #27 is a natural evolution of the story launched in the previous issue. It maintains and extends the intellectual aspect of the Hulk/Roxxon conflict while also dialling up the smash in a big way. There's even space for a few intriguing refinements in the Banner/Hulk relationship. Whether it goes quiet or loud or makes an effective compromise between the two, as it does here, Immortal Hulk is always worth checking out. Read Full Review
This is one of the best, if not the best, books Marvel is putting out. Ewing continues to weave a compelling and horrifying tale, with one of the most consistent art teams in the business to bring his stories to life. Read Full Review
The Hulk makes his first move, and Immortal Hulk #27 succeeds in creating excitement for what will come now that Team Gamma has gotten the attention of The Minotaur. Its one thing to come after Roxxon, but it is another thing entirely to actually get away with hurting them. For as much bravado as Agger has picked up after accepting his true form as The Minotaur, what comes next should be him putting his money where his mouth is when the time arrives to take action.

Even though the past two issues, as well as this one, seem a bit disjointed, it still appears as though Ewing is getting back on track. Ewing appears to be going back to what has worked and what has made this series so successful early on, which ultimately makes this Hulk fan optimistic as we move ahead. Lets hope he continues this trend throughout the next arc and beyond. Read Full Review
The Hulk's assault on Roxxon isn't as grotesque as most issues in the series are but it's heavy on the action. Bennett shows how good he is at putting together some classic smashing action. I'm going to miss his art when he is gone as it's definitely one of the reasons I look forward to every new issue of The Immortal Hulk. The Hulk has definitely picked a target worthy of his cause. Ewing paints Dario Aggar as the callous opportunist that he is. It will be interesting to see just how much damage Team Hulk can actually do to a man who has survived the War of the Realms and is a master at manipulating the public. Read Full Review
Shonen and superhero fans alike are familiar with the obligatory, mid-tier fights that clog the path to an antagonist that might make readers nervous for their hero's wellbeing. Immortal Hulk #27 features just such a fight, one that nobody who has read comics for more than a month will invest much into, but it still manages to transform that fight into a thrilling adventure through a mix of formalist effects and tension-ratcheting side plots.

Still the most brilliant book from the big two in the market! And that last page!
I really love this book. This issue we get more typical Hulk, but not at the expense of the story that is being told. Al Ewing can do both.
Loving it like always.
The BESERKER crew got trashed..I mean smashed!!! Dope issue Daylight awaits
Hulk strikes a crushing blow against Roxxon while the Minotaur explains its significance in real time thanks to a nifty parallel scene structure. The noteworthy way the pages are laid out does limit the overall amount of content the creators can deliver, but it's a premise carried out with exceptional skill and complete success.
The Hulk's shocking power-up at the end is a powerful reminder that as twisty and turny as this volume has been, this arc is really the first time we've seen Devil Hulk and Bruce Banner working together -- and it's a frightening prospect.
" Buissines demands uncertainty there must be winners and losers. The strong and the weak. And we are the strongest there is. "
- MINOTAUR
Still good but this Roxxon arc is noticeably weaker than previous arcs so far
Noticeably weaker issue pacing wise but despite it's slowness it's still better than most anything you'll read that came out the week this did. Montour sure is chatty but his design and roxxon is pretty cool. I was glad at the end to see Hulk no longer has that sunlight handicap
"We have a Hulk situation!"
And it's a great one.
A very good issue with the narration cleverly broken into three separate points of view.
THE GOOD:
-The art is amazing as always.
-Al Ewing is just an incredibly talented writer.
-Okay, I was wrong. This is a cool take on Dario Agger.
-This feels like it's going to be the definitive Hulk comic. It's by far the best I've ever read.
-This take on Banner and Hulk is so cool. I know that's nothing new, but I feel like I've failed to mention it in previous reviews. So there it is: this is probably my favorite version of the character.
-I love some good body horror, so those B.E.R.S.E.R.K.E.R. units were just awesome.
-It's a little detail, but I loved the artwork/execution for when Banner transforms and all you can see is his shadow. I don't know, it more
This was another great addition. There were some faults but over all an entertaining read and the start to the hulk takeover.
Slightly underwhemling, in part because the fight is a bit of a bore, and in part because the minotaur who runs Roxxon talks we too much and seems a bit cartoony.
Weakest issue of the run so far.
Agger comes across as more of a Biker Mice From Mars villain than a Hulk-level threat: Generically evil megacorp CEO with a vague plan to profit from the resource scarcity that would allegedly follow Earth's failure to be sufficiently 'green'.
I pray that this doesn't devolve into a tedious, on-the-nose lecture on the environment.
Bennett's art is strong as ever.
This series may have peaked. The story gets cornier each month.
So slow.......
