WOOHOO! Sweet, and even better is that I've known Khoi for awhile.

Oh, and you might want to fix your link, it's just to another copy of the pic you posted

 

[Upset Spideyfan]

I'll definitely read it. Pak writes a great Hercules.

 

[Doc Destruction]

Love Art Adams, too. Gonna have to pick this up.

 

[3dman27]

that might go on my pull list if the story isn't a gag

 

[Arkady Rossovich]

Why is "Incredible" going to Hercules?That is Hulk's..and i do agree that Hercules deserves more exposure.

Redundant.

 

[GNR]

Redundant.

Totally missed that,thanks for the correction.

 

[Darthphere]

I'm pumped for this title though. It's only a matter of time for a Thor/Herc crossover event!

 

[Harlekin]

Awesome.

 

[Darthphere]

Herc has a jheri curl.

 

[CaptainCanada]

I love Herc (for all Civil War's flaws, Millar reminded everyone that Hercules is awesome), so I'll read this. I'd be even more enthused if Amadeus Cho wasn't hanging around too; maybe Hera will drive Hercules into another rage and kill Cho.

I hope you were well greased and lubed up first.

 

[GoldenAgeHero]

so no more hulk?

 

[Whirlysplat]

Seems unlikely, doesn't it? Why yes Whirly! It does!

 

[LouFerignoDemon]

I'd like it more if Cho weren't around.

 

[deemar325]

Not feeling it.

 

[Spade]

I'm okay with it. I'm not a big fan of Herc, but it never hurts to see if a character can be written well in a new idea.

 

[GNR]

so no more hulk?

Probably be featured in the new HULK ongoing by Loeb and McG.

 

[Vartha]

What is the list of books Herc and the gang have been in? I haven't collected Hulk in years or even Avengers, So I had no idea Herc and his crew were in the book.

he'd just been in the last couple of issues of Incredible during the World War Hulk crossover.

If you feel like getting back into Hulk, Planet Hulk was REALLY good. The massive hardcover is well worth it.

Because Incredible is an established title and thats what Herc needs, Hulk is getting a new number 1. Hulk is going in a new direction so a new ongoing is the right thing for Hulk.

 

[supermarvelman]

so no more hulk?

Maybe not on Incredible Herc, but there will be Hulk in the new Hulk ongoing coming in January.

I like Amadeus Cho...

remember when thor first got his comic the numbering was a continuation of journey into mystery where he FIRST appeared
