Ups the body horror to Rob Bottin levels and the intrigue surrounding the source of every Hulk's apparent immortality kept me glued.

This volume trades some of the horror of loneliness aspect of the the first that I really liked in favour of more traditional ensemble punch ups but it does also lean further into the grotesque body horror of Cronenberg/Carpenter and having a main Marvel title that is so horror focused is really refreshing. Definitely worth continuing.

3.5, not as hooking as the first volume, but picks itself up near the end. Really good ending & villain .

As someone who's not a fan of The Hulk series, in general, I was pleased that the first volume of this series seemed more horror inspired, and less superhero punching matches. Unfortunately, for me, this book returned to typical Hulk book form. Misunderstood monster feels threatened and must overcome the government, and its military, as well as have a physical battle with The Avengers who are, as usual, torn about how to fight him.
It's not a bad book. If you love The Hulk, this might be a five star book for you. For me, it lost the appeal of volume one, and I won't be checking out volume three.
I recommend it for Marvel Zombies, greeniacs, people who enjoy comics that they feel like they've already read dozens of times before.

I have started to get more into the storyline as I read more issues. Additionally, the characters that begin to show up have helped me do some reading and researching to find connections which strengthen events even more.
I am newbie at comics so this is the first storyline I chose to follow and really started to get into the series here.
While I still don't feel like I am reading a superhero comic nor do I think that is the intent of this series.
And I am still not a fan Hulk, but am a fan of the story.
Finally, there is one cell about privileged white males and really captures the events of so many things happening our world today that this comic has some real world connections.
I will continue to read.

Now we’re talking. Nothing superheroic here; just shadowy organizations, uncouth science experiments, and invulnerable monsters creating unspeakable havoc.
