Chili Pepper Chris’s Comic Cave: The Incredible Hulk!!! –reviews for June 11, 2008
Anybody who has read these posts in the past know that I’m a Hulk geek. I just can’t get enough of the green guy whether it’s an all out smash fest or we are delving into the psychology that is Banner/Hulk.
The movie out this Friday (June 13) is getting some great reviews and that the flick is 10 times better than the Ang Lee snooze-arama that we got in 2003. This Hulk smashes and smashes and smashes. And it is said that this is really starting to expand the cinematic Marvel Universe even further (there’s a cameo by Robert Downey Jr. as Tony Stark). Can’t freakin’ wait to see it! Now, I will tell you that you should pick up the latest issue of Green Lantern Corps and Action Comics–both are hella-awesome. But in celebration of the Hulk flick, here are reviews for two Hulk books out this week….
This is a one-shot featuring some great Hulk smashing and is drawn by Mitch Breitweiser who I would hope to see doing more Hulk projects. The back up tale in this is a reprint of and old Fantastic Four story and might be something you want to skip. That’s the drawback of this oneshot. They could have charged 2.99 instead of 3.99 and given us more of the new Hulk tale. Grade: B-
Dude, this is badass! Spinning out of events of the Planet Hulk storyline (if you didn’t read it you really missed out on a great Hulk story), we get to see the offspring of Hulk and his ladylove Caiera kicking ass all over the planet Sakaar. And Ron Garney delivers kick-ass art. Grade: A
GO SEE THE INCREDIBLE HULK!!!
Until next time–Peace…

Admit it, you would so watch a movie that contained all these characters.

Ok so I know I haven't been around much lately, what with me working hard on haleyred.com, but thanks to the folks over at The Onion this little bit of info didn't go unnoticed.
Hello there again ATE readers, it's me nanye remember?
Even though the movie is still over a year from being in theaters the first image of Hugh Jackman ...
After several months of sub-par storylines in this book we finally get one that delivers on several levels.
The events in this comic continue to build in epic proportions now. Like I've said, the first 25 issues of this were decent but the pacing was slow.
HOLY SH*T!! The two main Avengers titles as of late have been pretty mediocre if not sucktastic but this issue was good.
