First Look: Hulk #1

March 17, 2014

At the end of Indestructible Hulk, bad things happened and Bruce Banner got himself shot. Hence, the new Marvel NOW dropping the ‘Indestructible’ part and just telling us about Hulk. Who shot him? What’s the deal? Who’s behind this?

“As our series opens, Banner’s at death’s door”, says Waid. “…having learned something about himself that cuts him to the quick and calls into question everything he’s been doing for what he believes is the public good. And things don’t improve for him from there. You’ll see Bruce Banner in a whole new light.”

Check out this first look at Hulk #1, featuring art by Mark Bagley and a cover from Jerome Opena and variants from Bagley, Chris Samnee and Skottie Young.

Comic Channel Editor

Comics Editor Andy Hunsaker has written for Yahoo! Movies, Fancast, XfinityTV and UGO, among others, covering movies and television, and has loved comics ever since he read the giant-sized Marvel Treasury Edition of The Rampaging Hulk #26 four thousand times and grew to love guys with weird heads like M.O.D.O.K. and the Bi-Beast. Therefore, he will also defend Ang Lee's Hulk, although he understands why you don't like it and won't hold that against you.

As far as reviews go, he believes the main point of being a critic is not to pass yourself off as the final arbiter of quality passing holy judgment on a work of art, but rather just to share opinions so that the reader can decide whether or not the critic is someone whose tastes generally align with theirs. If so, that reviewer is one whose work you can trust if you're curious about a particular title. If not, cue loud, angry internet vitriol.
