THE HULK FINDS A NEW HOST: THE AMAZING SPIDER-MAN!
When Bruce Banner wakes up in the middle of the night without the Hulk, he thinks he's finally free. But the Hulk is immortal - and the night's not over yet. If you thought he was dangerous in the body of mild-mannered Bruce Banner, wait till you see him now. Peter Parker is a man with the proportional strength and agility of a spider, capable of lifting trains on his bad days. And he's about to get a big, green power-up - with a temper to match.
Rated T+
This book must be read; simply put. Plus, everyone will find something to appreciate in this issue. Taylor builds an extremely creative tale that this reviewer couldnt put down while the eloquent charm, character growth, and intriguing plot threads will not only captivate new and old readers alike BUT will leave fans of the IMMORTAL HULK and SPIDER-MAN wanting Tom Taylor to continue this story. I highly recommend IMMORTAL HULK: GREAT POWER #1 without reservation and feel that comic fans will thoroughly appreciate this wildly entertaining story. Add this floppy to your pull list ASAP and let me know what you think! Read Full Review

The Immortal Hulk: Great Power is not what I thought it would be, but it exceeds my expectations regardless. Taylor is careful to make sure that this book isn’t just crazy – it has the depth that makes a good story, too. The visuals tie it all together in a spectacular, stark kind of way. Give this one a read. Read Full Review
This book follows the tried-and-true annual script: Guest Star appears, problem happens with him or her, all is happily resolved leaving the characters better friends so they can meet again in a future story. Sorry, but this is a yawner to me. Read Full Review
Any excuse to read Tom Taylor’s Spider Man
This was a pleasant breather from the Immortal Hulk we've been keeping up with (which in my opinion has been a little preachy, lately, with it's messages). In fact, this feels more like an Incredible story than it does an Immortal one. It isn't anything status-quo-changing (though I guess the SM/Hulk conversation at the end is of note),It just feels like a classic superhero team up. I thought it was fun.
This was a lot of fun, as unnecessary as it may be. Tom Taylor writes a great Spider-Man and more of that is always welcome.
It is a bit pointless yes. Doesn't add much to anything.
But it is still very good. Relationship between Bruce and Peter/Hulk and Peter is written very well. Art is also as good.
If you like Ewing's Hulk run, this won't disappoint, even if it is not very important.
'The Hulk is not your monster. Not a burden for you to bear.'
Yes, Spider-Hulk is kind of awesome. Bruce - Peter relation is on point, and runnning gags with Parker preoccupied about pants and F5 were funny. Loki always makes a mess.
Deeply enjoyable.
Great one shot! Unnecessary but still very much enjoyable. Taylor and Molina are a great match!
Prelude:
I haven't been fully keeping up with Immortal Hulk but the issue says it's before #14 which I've read past so I should be fine.
The Good:
I really liked the dynamic between Peter and Bruce.
Loved that scene at the end.
Comedy was good.
Molina's art was good as well.
The Bad:
Nothing.
Conclusion:
A really good one-shot. Taylor is always great with his characters and it shows here like always.
Tom Taylor did a good job! Bravo
That was mostly cool. A bit unnecessary and it ruins the Immortal Hulk tone, but cool. The art was great, but the story sometimes jumps from the serious stuff and conversations to something that feels like Marvel Adventures. But yeah, overall it really is good. Nice work.
A poorly-executed bit of "help" from Loki lodges the Hulk's Gamma in Spider-Man, and the Fantastic Four help set things aright. It's a fluffy little piece of crossover fun, though its edges make a poor fit with the jigsaw of the main Immortal Hulk series. Outstanding character writing and art help elevate the plot and turn this into a very good comic.
" Your friendly neighborhood fantastic four is here to help. Spider man...? "
- THE THING
"I could keep it"
What a wonderfully bonkers issue. Oversized one-shots were made for stories like this.
The cover made me think it's some sort of What If? story, but it's totally in canon with Immortal Hulk and other titles.
Tom Taylor makes it work really well and he writes a great Web-head. The rest of the dialogue is not bad either.
Molina's art is great, especially Spider-Man and Spider-Hulk, but Sue's face in the panels form the lab looked very weird.
That's all I have. Really fun read from start to finish.
Money grab. Essentially pointless. Taylor has some charm and laughs here and there and the art is exceptional for such a silly surface level story, but the little giggles tossed in fade after spending 5 dollars on this basic comic book. No depth or twists here and no weight to carry into the Immortal Hulk legacy.
