My Favorite Marvel Book Currently, is Immortal Hulk! by Anthony Andujar Jr
Don't mind the spelling error to Al Ewing's name. Autocorrect is no fun when it doesn't actually do it's job haha. But, Boy oh Boy, this has been my favorite series in a long time. As comic book reader I tend to sift between the different publishers and read stories by creators whether it's from Marvel, DC , image or other publishers. It's no secret that I write and read a lot of DC comics since I'm a fan of the characters and the writer artists teams on the books that i review. But when it comes to Marvel, sometimes I have a tough time because there is always a shift in creator teams. That is, until I came across Immortal Hulk a year ago, and my, my, is it a fantastic book.
Most people always think of the MCU hulk these days, but the very best hulk is the one that is a huge mass of power, and psychological horror because he's a walking nuclear bomb, and yet underneath that is a heart that means well despite it all going horrifically wrong and is not above doing terrible things when required. The work that Al Ewing and Joe Bennett are doing is a work of art. Truly is. It defies the medium and the conventions of superhero comics and comics as a whole, mixing different genres into this wonderful stew of chaotic goodness! If you like body and psychological horror, if you like Mystery, if you like science fiction, if you like action, if you like drama, it has all that and more! I can't wait to see what these guys are doing next because issue 19 was off the charts!
Best Marvel book out there, and one of the best comics of the last decade hands down. So don't make me angry, or I'll write a whole essay of why you shouldn't make me angry! Haha.
