King Size Hulk #1
Writer: Jeph Loeb
Artists: Art Adams, Frank Cho, Herb Trimpe
Wow, this was unecessary. $5.00 for 24 new pages of art, reprints of Incredible Hulk 180 & 181, and Avengers 83, which didn't even have the Hulk in it! Art Adams does the first 8 pages, which sees the Red Hulk kill a Wendigo for some reason, and does nothing to advance the whole story happening over in Loeb's Hulk book. Frank Cho does the next 8 pages to show us the missing bits from Hulk where She-Hulk got grabbed by the Red Hulk. Again, nothing new to see here. Herb Trimpe's 8 pages are a review of the old Abomination's history, nothing new here. I got more value out of reading the reprints, which is a two-part Wendigo story and introduces Wolverine, than I did of the new stuff. I want to know who the Red Hulk is already. Drop some hints here and there Loeb! I know you're just gonna drop it on us, but lay some clues please! And if you want us to buy 24 pages of new Red Hulk stuff, put something new in it! Read this issue in the shop, and put it back on the shelf. F
I can't agree more. I had just finished reading Giant Sized Astonishing X-men and finishing up my "Emma Frost" crying fit when I pick up this worthless piece of poo. What a let down. By the way, I figure the Red Hulk is not Samson or Ross, but is a Skrull gone wrong.
I can't believe this book is still going on. Someone should fire Jeph Loeb from Marvel and have him go back and write sappy stories for DC. The only thing good was Arthur Adams.
