RED HULK VS. WAR-WOLF! THUNDERBOLT ROSS is back on U.S. soil - not as a hero, but as a war criminal accused of violating the international treaty with DOCTOR DOOM after bringing down a nuclear warhead on LATVERIA.

Red Hulk #6 is the most intense and thematically loaded issue of the series yet. Benjamin Percy continues to evolve the book beyond a standard Hulk spinoff and into something more dangerous, more personal, and more relevant.

The introduction of War-Wolf adds a terrifying new wrinkle to the gamma mythos, and the prison facility sets the stage for future horrors that may force even Ross to reconsider what kind of beast hes become.

Narratively its very well executed, and Shaw and Valenza make sure the art doesnt disappoint even though it is pretty low octane. Read Full Review
