Joe Bennett delivers some powerful imagery throughout this issue. There are so many great visual moments and the art captures the emotion of the characters and their circumstances perfectly. Read Full Review

Regardless of the long, two-month wait ahead and whatever awaits Hulk, Jackie, and readers on the other side, it's clear The Immortal Hulk has remained true to its purpose and is ready to deliver a hulking, horrific finale. Read Full Review

The Immortal Hulk's final adventure begins with a poignant story about the Hulk's birth as well as what comes next. It's a fantastic distillation of the series before the final battle. Read Full Review

As this single issue stands, it's exciting to see Ewing and Bennett take chances with the storytelling so close to the end. There are great connections Jacki's narration makes about Hulk and his place amongst the other Marvel characters, and for that Immortal Hulk #49 seems to be stripping away who Hulk is to others so that he may face himself in the finale.

Many will love this issue for its intricate display and stylistic approach that was meant to incorporate a sense of emotion into the issue. However, this reviewer left the issue a bit unsatisfied after craving answers and conclusions for months now and not receiving any. Read Full Review

It's Immortal Hulk. Nuff said.

I feel privileged to read/own this Hulk run. I never thought I would be a Hulk reader but what Al Ewing put together has been a masterpiece. Cant wait until October!

Loved the way Ben treated THe Hulk

This was awesome, I loved how Ewing juxtaposed the Hulk, FF and the Avengers (even though the Avengers seem kinda like bullies here but I guess they're not 100% in their right minds). And Bennett... I have no words for it, massive congratulations. The only fear I have for #50 is that Ewing will repeat the failed experiment from #25. I honestly hope he doesn't and he ends this run on a high note, I look forward to it. Also, that cover from Alex Ross for #50 is absolutely gorgeous.

This is just a tease. An opening for the grand finale. An opening that is done very well.

I am gonna miss this series...

Jackie McGee narrates as the Hulk enters the Baxter Building, gets bullied by the Avengers, rescued by the Fantastic Four, and sent to Hell. The writing and art are very good -- but this creative team can do better. (And I don't like the "illustration + sidebar" format that Al Ewing so loves.) But I balance the little disappointments against some truly world-class content; tons of great insights into character and philosophy. This is the capstone on Mr. Ewing's inspired contrast between the Hulk and the FF, and it's pretty damn triumphant. I await the end with bated breath.

When can we get an Ewing FF series?

I still think the Fantastic Four/Hulk dichotomy is absolutely genius.

Issue #50 can't get here fast enough!

I'm gonna miss this book so much when it's gone. The contrast between the Hulk's family and the Fantastic Four was my favorite part of the issue by far. "Someone had to build the rocket. Someone had to build the bomb" as if their fates were inevitable. The extra twist of the knife as Bruce saw the mirror version of his family reflected in the Forever Gate hit me right in the heart too. Can't wait to see what #50 has in store.

An enjoyable issue where Ewing plays with Hulk's relations to Super Heroes that is both violent and calm right before the bigger storm below. Still ton of questions that I cannot wait to get answers for. Bennett made this book the visual that it is along with Jose/Brabo/Mounts.

I liked it. Yes, I have made some mixed reviews on a few issues but I enjoy this series overall. Excited to see the grand finale

I liked this one. Really well written and has me excited for the lasts issue.

A weird new format for a comic, but still good enough. Nice issue, but I really tired of Avengers... THIS last fight was 100% not necessary... I mean, there literally was no point in it at all. However, this part of story was short, almost nothing happens, but it's pretty intriguing and kinda makes you expect something big from the last issue.

I hope the finale isn’t told in this manner. Personally hated it and found it to be disengaging. This is completely personal taste but I couldn’t get into this one at all!

Where's the rest? I only have half a comic here.

Following from issue 48, this comic is a major let down. The intention is to mimic a magazine article written by Mcgee, the effect was to produce a comic that is nothing but splash pages and text boxes. Perhaps we need to revisit the concept of sequential art.

Speaking of the art, it's outstanding. Bennett, Brabo, and Jose continue to meet and exceed expectations. If you'd like to support them by purchasing orignal art from this series you can find it at jadegiantart.com. Yes, I'm shilling for them, shut up.

The story, however is thin. Hulk and McGee walk across town, have a brief confrontation with the Avengers, then walk through a magic door. That's it. There are some interesting parts in the narrative - McGee describes the sounds Mr. Fantastic's body makes as it stretches, and it's chilling - but overall, I kind of feel robbed. Depicting a Hulk / Avengers fight in a few splash pages is criminal. This comic cost $5.00. Somebody owes me $2.50. more
