95. Future Imperfect #1 and 2 ... Marvel ...

What story is sooooooooo BIG that they needed a prestige format 2-issue limited series to tell the tale? Why it's not the story but the creator! We have George Perez coming onboard to tell one possible future of the Hulk and this is one limited series that didn't bullshit its impact because the new intros here survived into guest star roles in subsequent ongoings - both good and bad guys and even supporting casts

First up, George Perez!

I wasn't there when George was working his magic on DC but I was onboard when he was on Avengers vol 3 and it was magic. Sure his characters do not have dynamic poses ala the Image crowd but George draws them so well and so full of life and chockful of details in each tiny panel that you are just left with a ... WOW I JUST READ an incredible COMICbook feel ... know what I mean? Heh!

As for this, it takes place when Hulk was intelligent i.e Banner controlling Hulk with none of the psycho problems that go with it. So to make a long review short, Banner gets zap into the future. Before he knows what is what, out in the square, a buncha guys in armour is zeroing in on some of the populace and zapping them out of existence

Being the good guy that he is, Hulk jumps into the fray and draws attention to himself because ... finally the rebels have found someone who can not only help them but have the power to confront the mastermind behind the evil of their world

And when you find out who the true evil is ... it's delicious. Lots of good action and lots of dog soldiers biting the dust. What more can you want? Hmmm perhaps today's standard of computer colouring? Hehehe!
