Incredible Hulk #35

Writer: Bruce Jones Artist: John Romita Jr. Publisher: Marvel Comics

There are forces far larger than the police on the trail of the fugitive Bruce Banner, and they've just tracked him down to a little roadside diner in the middle of nowhere, intent on bringing him in -- warm or cold. Does he risk summoning the Monster inside him? Or will help come from an even more unlikely place?

    Incredible Hulk vol. 2 #35 (Feb. 2002) by Bruce Jones and John Romita Jr. (Marvel)

    I remember enjoying the Bruce Jones run on Hulk. I was recently reviewing Step by Bloody Step (Image) and decided to re-read all the other silent issues over the years including Marvel's "Nuff Said" theme of twenty-four books from early 2002. I appreciate they included all of the Bruce Jones script in the back of the book. His style just reads like a story utilizing the classic "Marvel Method" for comic writing (there are no breakdowns by page or panel). I like JRJ, however, after reading the script, I feel like the artist missed the essence of what the writer was really trying to capture behind the silent gimmick. So much of what Jones wrote was meant to be captured by the young autistic girl. Silent books are tough to pull off. I feel like the story was a good use of the silent gimmick, however, it wasn't fully realized in the finished work. Let me know what you think.
