Never have, never will. I find it quite ridiculous that a man survives gamma radiation and on top of that turns into a giant green steroid, that some how gets stronger when he gets angry.

Incredible Hulks is one of Marvel's best books right now. So, yeah, I follow it.

I must admit I have become an avid admirer of Pelletier's art. It's a bit weak on facial expressions, but it's also very vibrant and energetic, just what this book needs.
I did not like that Strange betrayed the Hulk again, though. They should let him catch a break.

Decent book, I like the concept of Hulk no longer being alone or wanting to be left alone. It feels a bit too surreal, though. Never have, never will. I find it quite ridiculous that a man survives gamma radiation and on top of that turns into a giant green steroid, that some how gets stronger when he gets angry. Seriously? How is it less believable than...say...an alien who gets stronger under the sun? Or being bitten by a irradiated spider?

His powers are no less realistic than Superman's. Gamma rays would destroy human tissue so fast. Superman is a extremely evolved alien. Makes perfect sense to me.

Perfect example of Bendis' writing influencing other books.Bendis set up the platform for Strange to be this double crossing type of guy and now other writers are running with it. I wonder what the future plans are for Skaar? They should have made him an Avenger.

Doesn't take the value out of any of Stan Lee's creations [most of which are hit or dosed with some type of radiation].

What I do like so far, is that while Pak sets up Banner as being two steps ahead from virtually anyone nearly at all times (to the point he nearly falls at the "boring invincible hero" tvtrope), he does not downplay his guest stars (something he had done in the past). Hank Pym, Thor, Doctor Doom, etch. they appeared in a faithful manner to what one would expect from them.
So I hope he will justify Strange attacking the Hulk, in a logical way.

I really like Pak on Hulk.He gives the impression most times that Hulk actually isn't the strongest one there is, he needs help some times.

Honestly, aside from the recent Hulk vs Abomination fight, I don't recall Pak ever writing the Hulk losing to anyone. At least not in the current run. He does require help/uses his smarts equally well as he smashes, but he does portray him as a force of nature most of the time.

I'm a Jack Kirby fan myself.

I'm actually forced to read Loeb's Hulk since I catch up with Fall of the Hulks/World War Hulks these days.

I was glad to see the Abomination return. Hopefully, he isn't returned to the land of the dead after Chaos War is finished.
