The Immortal Hulk: Hulk in Hell

Immortal Hulk, Vol. 3: Hulk In HellImmortal Hulk, Vol. 3: Hulk In Hell by Al Ewing
My rating: 4 of 5 stars

Emaciated and pissed off, the Hulk fights for his life in hell!

Immortal Hulk: Hulk in Hell collects Immortal Hulk #11-15. Hulk in Hell picks up where the last volume left off, with the Hulk in Hell, facing off hordes of enemies, including his father.

Al Ewing's horror take on The Hulk continues to amaze me. It reminds of of Swamp Thing, both the Len Wein-Bernie Wrightson version and Alan Moore's take on the character. It's a smart book and more than the Hulk beating the shit out of things, although there's also plenty of that. The relationship between Bruce Banner and the Hulk is getting more and more complex.

Ewing makes great use of b- and c-list characters like Puck, Absorbing Man, Doc Samson, and Berserker to weave new threads into the story of The Hulk. The gamma-irradiated monster has never been more interesting to me. Four out of five stars.
