I like these "The End" stories. The first Hulk fights Maestro and in the second Hulk just refuses to die. Bleak and yes, I found Waldo.

I did not realize this was two things slapped together: Hulk: Future Imperfect, and then a sort of ending to that story.
So I skipped the Future Imperfect part because I've read that. I enjoyed it. It was fun. But I think I got it. "Rick Jones will be happier...in ORBIT!"
As for the new bits, I'm just a little over post-apocalypse stuff. I get the appeal, but by now I think I've sampled most of the flavors of post-apocalypse on those little pink spoons, and like the 31 flavors of ice cream, after 3 or 4, they all have about the same effect. Once I've had like chocolate, vanilla, a few others, I don't need praline or whatever. Yes, I know some fuckface reading this is like, "Praline is the best!" Well, first of all, fuckface, no, it's not. There's no measure, subjective or objective, that leads to praline being anyone's favorite other than being contradictory on a book review for a Hulk book. Somehow that situation has arisen. But second, the point here is that while I might eat like 32 different kinds of ice cream, I don't need 32 only slightly different flavors of post-apocalypse. I'll take infinite takes on ice cream, but I don't need slight variations on the half-dozen flavors of post-apocalyptic novels:
Flavor 1: The real bad guys is us!
Flavor 2: Badass roaming the wasteland!
Flavor 3: LADY badass roaming the wasteland!
Flavor 4: Have you ever thought that corporations are the real bad guys and our new lifestyle is more pure?!
Flavor 5: What if we all fight over the same now-scarce resource?
Flavor 6: Played for comedy.
Then we get another bunch of flavors by combining these. I'm a badass roaming the wasteland, discovering that the real bad guys is us.
I'm a badass roaming the wasteland, helping the fight over the same scarce resource.
I'm a fast-talking, sassy lady roaming the wasteland.
You know what I don't think I've seen yet? One that I came up with, a post-apocalyptic world where everything is run by the same source of power: Human Semen. Men are taken to "milking farms" and enslaved to create the substance that powers the world. There's not much of a story here, but it's basically all based on a scene where a guy has to quickly jerk off into a car's gas tank to make an escape. I guess this is Flavor 5, fighting over a scarce resource. Damn it.

It's the end of the world as we know it. And the Hulk feels cold.
Future Imperfect had better art. But I like this story better. It understood Hulk. And Banner. And the end of the world. Dark. Actually the art in this is really just different than Future Imperfect - certainly no crowd scenes. Plenty of bugs though.

A Two-For of Future Hulk stories with a nice forward. Not sure either of these really stands on there own. But together this is really good. The first story is time travel to a dark future, but the art is very bright. And comparatively this feels light. Which contrasts nicely with the second story which is absolutely bleak.

Hulk not depress. Hulk not worry. Hulk have no concern over future of puny library in America. HULK ANGRY! Hulk outlive puny humans, and silly tight-clad superheroes - Hulk like cockroach - Hulk live on like Samson Agonistes. Hulk like Prometheus, with flying cockroach monster rip out Hulk liver and entrail all day, day after day, and HULK liver grow back, because Hulk can no be hurt. (David more Euripides fanboy, but David see Aeschylus value, thanks Hulk!) You doubters and haters, take note: HULK meanest baddest doubter and hater of all. HULK rule forever. (David love Hulk, since boy. David think, 'husky' pants boys like Hulk - puny boys like puny hero like spiderman or flash. Not get into David's child body issues here, no). In future, HULK face him only foe, which is no Bigfoot, no Wolverine - only foe can make HULK little scared, which is - through time warp effect - HULK SELF, in Future, when HULK rule supreme among post-apocalyptic cowering puny humans. NO worry, though. Hulk have plan... and Hulk Smash!
