Red Hulk vs Mighty Thor

The Mighty Thor challenges the Red Hulk. Hulk #5 (Written by: Jeph Loeb Art by: Ed McGuinness)

Hulk #5 - Red Hulk vs. Thor in an explosively illustrated issue that will leave you wanting more. I won’t spoil it for you, but will leave you with three words: Thor and punching bag. Plus, the Green Hulk and A-Bomb are up to something. What is it?

This new series of Hulk comics are so popular, all of them (including #5) have gone to a second printing. I’ve been collecting these since the start and have been lucky (or sucker) enough to get both versions of the (regular and variant) issues to add to my collection. (To keep my comic book collection in check, I only by first prints.) I can’t wait for the next Hulk smashing issue!

While I was at my local comic book store I also picked up Uncanny X-Men #500 (one Greg Land cover and an Alex Ross one - heck if I could find the Turner one) and Michael Turner’s Fathom #1, because the cover “popped” out at me and it looks like a good story. (I don’t fall for the pretty girl on the cover trick, just give me good artwork and a good story. The eye candy is a bonus.)

    i enjoyed Uncanny X-Men #500.. but i still don’t think i’m gonna get into marvel right away.. except for Secret Invasion, it’s awesome plus is the real Cap alive?

    I don’t know what’s real and what isn’t when it comes to (the killing of and) resurrecting of popular comic book heroes and villains.

    Maybe I’ll have to look into the Secret Invasion.
