Easily the best Hulk book since Planet Hulk however many years ago, and probably the best book Marvel is currently publishing. I cannot recommend this enough.

A little mix of horror/superhero for the Hulk. Loving Al Ewing’s writing so far.
Graphic: Murder and Death
Moderate: Child abuse

The Hulk has historically been one of my least favorite Marvel characters, but I have heard too many laudatory claims about this series to ignore. Well, the things I'd heard were true! This Hulk comic is phenomenal. Al Ewing has made me care about Bruce Banner and the Hulk after years of indifference. I can't wait to read volume 2!

Bruce Banner wanders the US, unable to outrun his true enemy, the one that lurks inside him even after death, The Immortal Hulk!
While some of my earliest super hero memories are of the Incredible Hulk TV show, I've only read a handful of Hulk comics over the years. This book has been touted as a horror take on the Hulk and that's all I needed to hear.
This is the classic Hulk on the run story with a twist: Even if Bruce Banner dies, he'll return as The Hulk when the sun goes down. The Hulk in these pages is smart and sadistic and goes up against a few Gamma-powered antagonists.
Al Ewing has done a great job making the Hulk seem like a rabid dog that you should stay the hell away from. There's some decompression but this volume is one hell of a read. Joe Bennett's art is also good, although I think a subdued, shadowy, Mike Mignola type of style might have been more suitable for the tone of the story.
I think Marvel has something special on their hands with Immortal Hulk. I'll be reading the next volume once it's available. Four out of five stars.

A dark horror take on the Hulk. Stand-alone stories with a bit of a through-line that is clearly setting up for future things. I’m definitely interested enough to keep reading on and see where everything goes

Hulk as a horror comic is my favorite Hulk. I prefer this to puny Banner moping around because he’s an unstable rage machine.

Definitely the shot in the arm the character needs, I think. Hulk was initially envisioned as an amalgamation of Jekyll/Hyde and Frankenstein's monster, so it's weird that it took this long to truly dial up the horror, and the implications as to why the Hulk has never stayed dead is interesting to explore.
