Five stars might be generous, but I was completely engaged in this comic. From Banner's turn as a Doctor Monroe madman, to Hulk's apology to Banner, to the mad scientist hunters, this whole book was crazy fun and one of the best Hulk comics I've read in a long time. I can't wait to read the next volume. More Hulk sharks!

Marc Silvestri (artist) is spectacular! I love his style! Without him I wouldn't have enjoyed the book as much as I have. His pencil sketches are something to see (the good bits are saved for last!)
The story was interesting and a definite twist from the OG. The scene where the Hulk has his final showdown with Banner will stick with me for a while - the imagery was great.
I didn't like Amanda von Doom, though. She was just a conveyor belt delivering mediocre quips dressed in a pretty package with buoyant boobs, and as much as I like good art that didn't save her from getting on my nerves. Geez, not all girls are catty or sassy, or randomly shout bits about nerdy sexual fantasies (although that was a bit funny in how the writers acknowledge what their fanbase may do when presented with a sexy woman in a comic book).

This simply was not good. Jason Aaron seemed like the perfect author for the Hulk but this is bland. Amanda Von Doom? No. Not good. Also, there was some terrible art here (some good). Whilce Portacio is not good and has some of comics' worst panels year after year. The coloring was also bad. Characters remark that they were attacked by green animals who look normal. This was a big miss with only a couple of interesting moments. Overall, a huge disappointment.

The story started promising but then again, I have not kept up with comics more or less for about 20+ years so it lost ne. I didn't expect The Hulk to be quite like that on his own,nor how the story ended.

I liked the illustrations, but the story didn’t do much for me.
