I think this series is going to kick-ass! Pretty entertaining first issue, slowly and unexpectedly reveals the whole supernatural elements of the story. Art and colours are gorgeous.

While the re-imagining of mythology isn't new, I still find Once & Future to be intriguing. With fun characters like Bridgette McGuire, a interesting story by Kieron Gillen that combines old myths with modern politics and great art by Dan Mora, I think Once & Future is worth reading.

Immortal Hulk

HORROR HAS A NAME.
You'd never notice the man. He doesn't like to be noticed. He's quiet. Calm. Never complains. If someone were to walk up and shoot him in the head... all he'd do is die.
Until night falls. And someone else gets up again.
The man's name is Banner.
The horror is THE IMMORTAL HULK.
