FALL OF THE HULKS CONCLUSION Prepare for the reveal of the Leader and M.O.D.O.K.'s master plan and the true motivations of Skaar, Son of Hulk!
This is definitely not a great place to jump on board - a new reader would be lost - but for longtime fans, there's a lot here to enjoy. Read Full Review
Incredible Hulk has a strong foundation. Banner is in a very interesting place at the moment. His relationship to his son, his ex-wife, and his fellow heroes is ripe for exploration. Paul Pelletier also has the book looking better than it has in a while. The problem is that Fall of the Hulks dilutes these strong qualities and drops too much extraneous clutter on the series. I'll keep my fingers crossed that War of the Hulks can offer a more streamlined and less disjointed conflict for both Hulk books, but at the moment I'm beginning to look to the faraway point when Incredible Hulk can be left alone again. Isn't that what Hulk always wanted for himself? Read Full Review
This is another issue that was a lot of fun to read, but in terms of craft and clarity, falls short. There is too much going on here that isn't set up well, making a lot of the action and twists totally unclear. The ride is fun, but to be wholly satisfying, I need something more to grip on to. However, it is good setup for the upcoming World War Hulks story, so mission accomplished in that regard. The backup story lives and dies by the art, so it is a good thing that Stegman bring his Agame. I just wish he had a more substantial story to draw here. Read Full Review
I liked this issue, particularly the ending, however it could have been so much more if I understood all of the references. The dialogue was clever and added a lot of depth to many of the characters in the issue, especially Banner. The artwork excelled during the fight scenes but didn't deliver with separating the scenery of backdrops. I would think if you have read all of the Fall of the Hulks titles then would probably end up loving this issue. However, if you are only interested in this title I would be prepared to be a little lost if you pick it up. Read Full Review
"Incredible Hulk" #608 would be slightly disappointing because its non-ending, but the filler in the back of the issue means you end your reading experience on a sour note. If this is how Marvel wants to justify raising the prices on some of their books, I think they need to rethink the back-up story policy. Hopefully April will bring something better, Hulk-wise, for readers. Read Full Review
What a mess... And Fall of the Hulks was only to start World War Hulks, cool... Another big event. I'm already tired of switching series.
