    Was that Captain America's shield near the end?
    You mean just to the right of the screen when Hulk is getting tackled by the FF? If so, I don't think so, it was all spiky.

    Imagine innocents are like puppies.

    Hulk doesn't wanna hurt us because, as pissed off as he is, he has no reason to hate us.

    Ultimate Hulk, however, would rape you and eat the puppy.
    Or vice versa.
    That right there is how 616 should be in WWH

    Sentry: Dear GOD! What the hell are you doing to my dog!
    Hulk: Muhaha!
    *PWNS Sentry*

    Of course the mere presence of Sentry probably make Hulk too stoned to even move, but yeah

    I just don't see why this is interesting. He becomes the same as Sentry, where the only way he can lose is through some literary deus ex machina. There are a billion ways to destroy him with mildly creative use of the heroes' powers, but since no one wants to destroy him they never bother.

    Superman characters are more boring in fight scenes because they are versatile as well as powerful. Hulk/The Flash are one-trick ponies, even if they have infinite capacity in their given area of expertise, that doesn't make them all-powerful. It's perfectly possible to write interesting stories about the Sentry/etc anyway, as long as they don't focus on fight scenes. The problem is when they appear in crossovers/teams and overshadow everyone. The Hulk and the Flash and so on, being more limited, don't have this problem.

    In any case, Planet Hulk managed to introduce tension by bringing in weaker allies the Hulk had to protect, and most of the drama was about whether he would save the world, rather than if he could.

    As seen in the hero tournament, Flashes are definitly a problem due to the infinite ways infinite speed can be used - phasing, huge damage, an ability to avoid damage to the point of being invincible (Flash can be shot from behind without warning, and still be fast enough to start phasing when he feels the bullet hit him), etc.


    If the current Hulk arc was just him hitting the king til he fell over, it'd suck. It's cool because of the scale of the story and the other characters, not just Hulk's strength. Before Planet Hulk I really had no interest in him.

    Anybody else notice Black Bolt in the scene where Hulk's bearing down on Iron Man?

    Couldn't he just whisper and blow his hand off?

    I guess Black Panther & Storm arn't going to be on the FF for very long at any rate.

    That whisper would then spread out and destroy a couple city blocks.

    I'm pretty sure that's hulk's shield. There's one panel where you're viewing what I assume to be Hulk from the back, and he's got a shield on one arm.

    The warp core from the original spacecraft the Hulk arrived on Skaar in suddenly undergoes a breach. With only seconds to spare, the Hulk tries to toss it as far as possible. It goes nuclear, and appears to wipe out the entire capital city.

    Oh, and Hulk got his wife pregnant. Now, Caiera is damn tough, but the explosion is massive, and the Hulk looks like he's trying to shield her with his body. The baby's survival may be adversely effected by exposure to all that massive energy, but I'm not sure. The story hangs right as the explosion goes off over the city.

    She's almost as powerful and invulnerable as he is. They got into a fist-fight a few issues ago and she was holding her own, and she also took what looked like a nuclear blast without getting hurt. I know a nuke blast isn't equal to a 'smashing' from the Hulk, but she's still pretty tough.
    Although, yeah... I don't think she makes it through the warp core detonation. I don't think any of Hulk's friends do, either.

    And things were going so well...

    Oh no, it certainly wasn't on purpose. It was just a terrible, horrible accident.

    That won't stop the Hulk from trying to feed them their own faces, though.

    Hold up...
    Sorry if I'm speaking out of a lack of knowledge, but I managed to look through the last issue and it showed Hulk's bug-friends finding the spaceship with the video from the Illuminati and I'm pretty sure one of them said something to the point of 'Well, this oughta remind him to be ticked off.' So, do they try to show him the video or was what happened in this issue a real accident or more like their 'reminder'?

    An interesting thought, but...
    I don't think that was the case. Miek (the big bug dude) showed Hulk the message to try and tick him off, but afterwards Caiera managed to calm him down and convince him to turn his strength towards making the world a better place. Even Miek seemed to be won over by this, thinking that maybe what happened to his people was for some greater purpose.

    So far, Planet Hulk has been excellent. I've really been liking the direction Hulk has been going in. However, I think I won't be able to help but be disappointed if
    Hulk's wife dies/loses the baby. I know something has to get Hulk mad enough to go home, and that's the only thing I can think of severe enough. I'd just hate to see the loss of a cool character, plus the potential for a supremely badass son-of-Hulk later on down the line.

    I'm thinking that Hulk's going to be the only thing left once the smoke clears. It makes for the perfect tragedy - all those characters, all their different personalities and goals and relationships to the Hulk, all snuffed out. It's just the thing to get the Hulk really pissed off.

    Whatever the outcome, I can hardly wait for issue 105 to come out. Planet Hulk has been one of the best story-arcs I've read in a long time.

    Man, I think that the writer's choice to sacrifice all that Hulk has created and sustained on that planet just to get Hulk to come back to earth is not a good idea because...



    Oh I get it, "World Breaker"



    Wow, man, I hope the warbound survive. But since I haven't seen any pictures of them in any of the upcoming solicits I think that they don't, wow I am so pissed.

    I'd like to see Hulk actually tear Reed in half. You can't tell me a scene like that wouldn't have more impact than anything else that month, and Hulk will have to do something completely unprecedented to stress that this isn't just another Hulk rampage.

    And of course, he'd survive and eventually figure out a way to fix himself a few months later after the conclusion of the event.

    The art on some of those preview pictures is terrible. The first one, with the Hulk fighting the Thing while the jounalist dude cowers is horrendous.

    Actually, now I look at it again it isn't as bad as I thought. I think the fact the Hulk has his arm in a weird position is throwing the proportions out of wack.

    Some of the other pictures look really....90s though.
