Hulk faces undead horror as "The Age of Monsters" continues! Hulk investigates the creature being worshipped in an abandoned mining town - and finds a primordial horror as large as the mine itself awaiting him, using the town's residents as human shields. From the darkest corners of the minds of Phillip Kennedy Johnson and Nic Klein, the first chapter of "The Age of Monsters" culminates in a battle between the Hulk and a monster unlike any he has faced before - but that's only the tip of the iceberg!

    When all is said and done, this is going to pair nicely with Immortal Hulk as a delightfully demented one-two punch. Read Full Review

    Comic Watch - Matt Meyer Aug 30, 2023

    The Incredible Hulk #3 is a work of visual mastery, leaving much of its story on the surface with explosive action and entertaining characterization. While Johnson's world building and moment to moment storytelling is beyond entertaining, the book's decompressed pace is leaving a lot to be desired in terms of narrative depth that is building at a snail's pace. As a result, judging the story is difficult, but overall this relaunch is still hanging tightly onto consistent quality. Read Full Review

    The Comicbook Dispatch - StoryBabbler Sep 13, 2023

    The Incredible Hulk #3 concludes this brief clash between the Hulk and the mysterious Brother Deep. Readers will learn a bit about Brother Deep, and thanks to Nic Klein's art, the monster certainly looks the part. However, the monster's origin ends up being more interesting than the actual monster himself. That said, the writing for the characters' dialogue and the story pacing is good, and the Hulk just shines as the best part of this comic book from start to finish. Read Full Review

    The Fandom Post - Chris Beveridge Sep 13, 2023

    I know I shouldn't read a book that involves a smash/action character when that kind of material does so little for me these days, but the team here has promised something bigger and deeper and they are delivering on it. The eldritch and ancient-style approach to the villains helps a lot to create something unique but it requires the artwork to really sell it to be effective. And Klein does that masterfully with Wilson as it's disturbing and creepy but still within the realm of Marvel. This was a good issue to see how Charlie does what she has to in order to survive, nudges the storyline forward a bit more, and gives us some time to see how Hulk handles situations that aren't exactly to his liking but can't be smashed through. Definitely good stuff. Read Full Review

    The creative team clearly has big plans for this new Hulk run, but haven't quite gotten things firing on all cylinders. Hulk fights a Cthulhu, though, so that's neat. Read Full Review
