World War Hulk
It's a great comic book. I absolutely loved the story. It's about more than
just a guy getting angry, turning green and demolishing everything. I
believe it's about a tragic hero. This man, Bruce Banner, was tricked
into being banished by his own peers, friends, and colleagues. He crash
landed on a distant freaky planet, Sakaar, where he immediately became a
slave, eventually overthrowing the king, becoming ruler and finally
finding peace. Then the shuttle that brought him to Sakaar, exploded and
caused the death of millions, including the Hulk's queen and the child
she was carrying. What made this story so special is not just seeing
that the Hulk was angry, but it was understanding WHY he was angry. I
don't want to give the whole story here, but once I understood why he
was angry, it made the story that much more meaningful for me. Once the
story was finished I came to the conclusion that the Hulk is a hero, not
a monster. I like John Romita, Jr's work. I thought that he decently
portrayed the story through his art. I honestly believe though, that
David Finch or Mike Deodato would have made the story come alive
visually in terms of artistically showing the rage of the Hulk to the
reader. I really did enjoy Romita's work on the WWH though. It's also
pretty cool to see the Hulk just absolutely lay waste to Iron Man, Dr.
Strange, Black Bolt, and Mr. Fantastic. Nothing made me smile more than
seeing Iron Man take a beating. Of course I say this because of Cap's
death as a result of the events of the Civil War. Iron Man has just
become a jerk lately and seeing the Hulk give him a beating was very
pleasing. I also liked the panels of the Hulk vs. The Sentry. I'm not a
Sentry fan, but the fight was pretty cool and the Hulk stood his ground
against Mr. Reynolds. All in all, I believe any Hulk fan should pick
this up, it's worth the money to add to your collection. Most definitely
the angriest the Hulk has ever been! This comic book is for kids reading level ages 9 and up. Leave us your comments. Your feedback is greatly appreciated. Let us know what other kids books you would like to have reviewed.
