Honestly when Heroes Reborn was over and everyone returned to the normal Marvel Universe, Hulk started off not with a bang but a whimper where the series are waaaaay too serious i.e. boring and not enough splash pages worth of Hulk Smash!
I am not saying the stories are bad but without the right artist to go with a tense storyline, somehow the Hulk series would just meander on and on ... and personally, the first 24 issues did this. Unfortunately. However, the culmination of the past few issues subplots translate into one huge main plot by writer Jenkins and Marvel is smart enough to give this series a kickstart by giving regular artist Hotz off and slotting in JR Jr
You see JR Jr by now has a very stylized artstyle and if there is one thing he does well, it is chunky characters who are going to try and knock each other's socks off and here, he doesn't disappointment. Banner has found out who is responsible (or so he thinks) for his rising tide of problems and he began tracking down the baddie. As the cover announces, it is the Abomination who is going to bear the brunt of his anger and when Banner is angry, the Hulk comes out to play
With the rain whipping throughout the issue while they fight, the artwork is breathtaking!Hulk slugs it out with Abomination ... and at first Abom thought he had a chance but this is one pissed off Hulk ... and the ending is just ... well if this is a movie they may not want to even film that a film tag warning you it is strong PG or perhaps higher rating. It is that strong an ending fight! Loved it!
Ratings: 8/10
