Pak is clearly firing on all cylinders with this return to Planet Hulk and I'm looking forward to seeing what the writer has in store. Read Full Review
Planet Hulk: Worldbreaker #3 takes big steps forward in the plot to take the fight to the Grand Priestess in a bid to save the Haarg children. However, the GrandPriestess's grand plan is revealed in full, and it doesn't pay off the build-up, leaving you with an unsatisfied feeling that this series was just another excuse for Hulk smashing..

I've hung in there for three issues and frankly, I wouldn't recommend picking up Planet Hulk: Worldbreaker #3 nor would I recommend jumping into the series. This isn't the recent Maestro comics from Peter David. I'm sure that was the attempt with Planet Hulk: Worldbreaker but sadly it isn't even close. Read Full Review
Planet Hulk: Worldbreaker #3 introduces many Hulk characters for the sake of including them, which distracts from the story's central themes. Read Full Review
This issue is at its best when it's exploring the thousand-year remorse of Old Man Cho (the 1st scene is the high point). That character insight is what makes it (barely) a good comic.
I can't rate it higher because that depth and craftsmanship just aren't apparent in the other characters. Or the dialogue, the plot, the action art -- none of these things are really *bad*, but they're not nearly as good as Cho's characterization.
