Jul 15, 2026The Infernal Hulk #9 is a near perfect penultimate issue and sets up the finale in a big way! This story has been wild and built up very well over these first nine issues. Now that we are entering the finale, the stage is set for something huge to happen. The one thing this issue shows us is that Johnson is willing to pull all of the stops in this series and that makes the anticipation for the final issue that much better. I for one cannot wait for the final issue of this part of the story and to see what the setup for the next arc will be. The anticipation for the last issue is going to be a tough wait after how awesome this issue was. Read Full Review

Jul 20, 2026The Infernal Hulk is rampaging towards a very promising finale and this ninth issue lives up to the series' lofty expectations. Featuring visceral art from Adam Gorham and Matthew Wilson, and a great narrative in three parts from Phillip Kennedy Johnson, I couldn’t be more excited to get my hands on the final issue next month. Eldest has seemed nearly invincible… do our heroes stand any chance? It’s almost time to find out. Read Full Review

Jul 15, 2026Infernal Hulk #9 serves as a bridge toward the series' next major confrontation, but Phillip Kennedy Johnson ensures the journey is never dull. Bruce Banner and Doctor Voodoo make for an engaging pairing, while Adam Gorham continues to excel at grotesque monster designs and horror-infused action. Although much of the issue is devoted to positioning the players for what's next, the supernatural atmosphere, inventive visuals, and thrilling final pages make the wait worthwhile. Read Full Review

Infernal Hulk #9. this book is back on track after a disappointing previous issue. I wish Nick was back as the artist. The book suffers without his visuals but I get hes working on bigger books to come. The art here just was so mid and I cant stand when artists don’t draw faces on big groups shots.overall still good stuff. Hulk and Dr voodoo... given the circumstances it makes sense and works. Well Done!
