The Official Hulk Thread...

Korg and Thor have fought before? Hmm

Maybe they haven't personally fought, but Korg is a Kronon, a.k.a. one of the "Stone Men from Saturn." They were the aliens Thor fought in his very first appearance, back in Journey Into Mystery #83.

 

[Colossal Spoons]

Ah ha. I kinda wish they'd drawn these Kronons not as Thing + The Coneheads.

 

[TheCorpulent1]

They used to look more like single masses of stone than dudes composed of a bunch of smaller rocks. I don't know when they switched.

 

[supermarvelman]

As cool as it would be,I can't see Hulk's entire crew making it to the end.

No not his entire crew, but 1 or 2 should survive, I hate when the main character is the only one to survive.

They fought he refers to it

Themanofbat: You can probably pick up Bruce Jones' entire run for prettty cheap off of ebay.

It was pretty cool, IMO, but it wasn't nearly as good as the Planet Hulk stuff.

The biggest complaints about Jones' run was that Hulk didn't turn into an octopus creature. But mainly that was just Darthphere.

#97 out tomorrow guys.

Preview of Hulk Mythos.

The X-Men Mythos was well done I must say.

 

[TheCorpulent1]

Yeah, there's no better way to dissuade me from buying a book than putting "reimagined" in the description. I'll be passing on that just like I passed on X-Men Mythos.

 

[Darthphere]

Well its not like its in continuity.

That x-factor preview looks pretty sweet though. Like the art but prefered the last issue on that front, have they changed artist?

XM Mythos was pretty good Corp.I'm not an x-fan by any means these days,but it's amazing what they can do with the classics:just the original 5,Xavier and Magneto.No Wolverine,no 2nd team,no Apocalypse.

 

[hippy fascist]

Then you should check out x-men first class

 

[GNR]

Meh,not interested.

Just read #97 today.Pak continues to knock this title out the park.One of Marvel's top 5 titles in my opinion.Get this.

 

[GNR]

Anyone catch the letters page in #97?

The editor,Paniccia,gives a sh1tload of hints about the Hulk's future.

 

[TheCorpulent1]

Well its not like its in continuity.

That's the only reason I'm just skipping it rather than actively b****ing about it.

Out of continuity reinvention of the team = no interest from me. Plus, I'm not really that much of an X-Men fan to begin with.

Finally.Read the solicits for #100,sounds like a nice and packed issue just like the Giant-Sizer.Not only that,but something we've been wanting to happen since Hulk got the boot is finally going to happen.

 

[GNR]

I'll be the first to say that I'm glad #300 is being reprinted.It's one of the best HULK SMASH stories ever.I've read a crappy copy when I was visiting in the states.But around here,it goes anywhere from 15 to 20 bucks.Plus,I'm through with buying back issues that don't come out of the 2 dollar bin.

 

[Kirk Langstrom]

I wonder who will discover what The Illuminatti did to Hulk? Maybe She-Hulk?


Anyway, did any of you guys pick up the Planet Hulk Gladiator Guidebook? I was amazed at the amount of thought that went into this current run...

 

[Xofenroht]

I hope it's She-Hulk. Didn't she question the whereabouts of Bruce Banner to begin with?
Or shouldn't someone have done that a long time ago, considering Hulk causes alot of damage to public property and some casualties too. People should be saying "Stark, why aren't you going after Banner?"

 

[Darthphere]

Yeah, it was tocuhed upon in She-Hulk.

I'll give you the property damage, but ixnay on the casualities. That was NEVER an established fact until Bendis decided to make it so in the Illuminatti special (iirc)...this is the same guy who claims Hank Pym isnt "Avenger material" due to the one incident where he slapped Jan, yet he goes and turns the Hulk, an Avengers founder, into a mass murderer.

No one was ever killed during the Hulk's rampages in all the years i read the book as a kid, and i dont think that Marvel's current Golden Boy should be allowed to change that, simply because HE thinks otherwise. Just my personal opinion.

I can see where Bendis thinks this, and while I would even be inclined to agree to a certain point that when huge catastrophic events have occured on Earth in Marvel's history, there might have been some civilian casualties; ie when Namor sends a tsunami at New York, Doom lifts the Baxter buliding into space (twice)... fallen debris may have hurt or killed someone, random strat bullets and bombs aimed at Spider-Man, DareDevil, or any other hero, miscellaneous Hulk rampages near cities, etc...

Logically, after 10 years of Marvel time where all these events have occured and more, it's within the realm of possibility that civilian casualties have occured. Heck, maybe they should have sent Namor into space as well thereby preventing further attacks from Atlantis...

The point being is that all these Marvel heroes/characters are not killers... none of them have killed innocents. So the Illuminati's logic of sending the Hulk into space is somewhat flawed. If people left him alone, he'd live out his life peacefully in some remote place.

However, they needed a reason to get him on "Planet Hulk", so I'm not complaining.... at the moment.

Just my two cents...

 

[Xofenroht]

I mean come on, NO ONE gets hurt when a building falls or is demolished in all of 10 years while all of this is happening? Really...even for a comic, that's illogical. I'll say that Hulk has never directly killed another human being. That's where he saves face, but a dangerous force is a dangerous force.
