www.newsarama.com/WWLA_07/Marvel/mondo.htmlSolicit and Preview of WWH #1. WORLD WAR HULK #1 (of 5) Written by GREG PAK Penciled by JOHN ROMITA JR. Cover by DAVID FINCH Variant Cover by JOHN ROMITA JR. Marvel's massive summer smashfest begins! Exiled by a group of Marvel "heroes" to the savage alien planet of Sakaar, the Hulk raged, bled and conquered through the pages of last year's "Planet Hulk" epic, rising from slave to gladiator to king. Now the Hulk returns to Earth to wreak his terrible vengeance on Iron Man, Reed Richards, Dr. Strange and Black Bolt -- and anyone else who gets in his way. Stronger than ever, accompanied by his monstrous Warbound gladiator allies, and possessed by the fiercest and purest rage imaginable, the Hulk may just tear this stupid planet in half. The epic story of anger unbound begins with this special double-sized issue written by "Planet Hulk" scribe Greg Pak and penciled by the legendary John Romita, Jr. 48 PGS./Rated T+ …$3.99 Basically he fights Black Bolt on the moon. I'm VERY worried this crossover will just turn into a "Greg Pak loves the Hulk and thinks he should kick ass." I'm also worried we will see the entire blame for Hulk being shot into space laid 70% at Tony's feet and 30% at Reed's. Black Bolt and Doc Strange are JUST as guilty, beyond doubt. www.newsarama.com/WWLA_07/Marvel/mondo.html

This is only going to be good, if something actually happens. If it is just hulk fights people, nothing happens, then it all goes back to status quo, then what is the point.
A small part of me wants to see the hulk tear apart this current MU. just a small part.

Well this will either reinforce the need for the SHRA and The 50-State initiative, or will tear down IM's futurist, I-know-better-than-you world he has created.
My hope is that it will expose the Illuminati, which causes a rightful backlash against Tony, and allows the anti-reg forces (led by a returning Captain America) to save the day. Thusly setting the world back on its proper axis, with a new found respect for its own freedoms and the freedoms of those who help protect them most....
...but I doubt it.

Black Bolt and Doc Strange are JUST as guilty, beyond doubt. Here is a case of my first reaction would've been way wrong. I read this and thought "Doom is crazy, he is always sticking up for IM". But I thought about it and Doom is right. Strange especially. But percentage wise I want to put more blame on Reed, I can't give evidence why, I just feel it is more his fault. |

Personally speaking, if I were Hulk- well, I'd have many issues to work out, but all that aside, if I were Hulk in this situation it would be Strange I'd want dead the most. He was supposed to be Hulk's friend! But I'm afraid that the writers will just have Hulk decide naa, Hulk was his friend so Hulk forgives him. Hulk will just smash puny Iron Man instead! You select Reed, that's fine. Myself I'd be quite content with 6 issues of Hulk beating Black Bolt into mush, mainly because I'll read this event praying on each page that Iron Man and The Initiative survive 100% intact  |

Well Marvel have said over and over that WWH will not undo the changes of Civil War, and we know A: The Initiative is an ongoing so IT will survive.

www.newsarama.com/WWLA_07/Marvel/mondo.html I'm also worried we will see the entire blame for Hulk being shot into space laid 70% at Tony's feet and 30% at Reed's. Black Bolt and Doc Strange are JUST as guilty, beyond doubt. If they're smart, they'll blame Black Bolt. What's he going to say in defense? Reed,"Hulk here in my lab! I tell you it wasn't me!" Tony, "Yeah, it was Black Bolt's idea. He actually spearheaded the whole thing." Black Bolt, " ..." Hulk, "Puny silent human!" |

It sounds like they're all just as culpable - but the question will be, what does the Hulk know about it? In other words, does HE know they're all just as culpable, or did the storyline leave him believing that one or the other was more culpable. But in the end, it may not matter: 1% of the blame is still enough anger for the Hulk, especially if he's more powerful, to kill you very, very dead. I just hope he dismantles the Initiative and Tony, piece by piece, before they get him under control!  |

That's why I think Hulk will be so mad at Reed. From the Hulk's perspective it'll be easy to see Reed as the protaganist. Imagine all the time Hulk is away, you know he's replaying the last thing he heard and saw, and that was Reed saying he was sorry and then pressing the button. (it was Reed wasn't it, I can't find my illuminati issue anywhere, I'm going off of my questionable memory)

Well from what we've seen, he knows they're ALL culpable. Still, Greg Pak has says he foxuses in on Reed, Doc Strange and Tony as the ones he knows as opposed to Black Bolt, so at least Strange's betrayal won't be left out, even if I suspect he'll end up helping Hulk.

Now, I'm pretty sure this won't play a part in World War Hulk, because it would stack the deck too heavily against the Hulk, it would make the Illuminati win way too easily but, still, all the same, lets not forget that the Infinity Gems are in their possession...

Indeed, he keeps it about as much as Cap does these days. (Er...did. Y'know, before dying and all that) Whether that's an insult to Cap or a compliment to Iron Man is up to you |
