G**amn this comic is good. Body horror isn't usually my thing, but this is something different. Its a cold, cruel kind of horror, and at the end of this, it moved into a whole new area of that good ole Marvel Comics bullshit, that not only gave the Hulk something new, but cast older Marvel works, unrelated on their surface, a deeper, more menacing feel. I can feel this book's influence seeping into the larger world around it, and its amazing to read. Bravo.

Body-horror Hulk meets cosmic-horror Hulk? Shouldn't work, but kind of does.

The Immortal Hulk continues its hot streak and goes cosmic. While this volume is a bit heavy on Marvel lore and allusions (similar to volume three), the story and characters are strong enough that one needn’t have a PhD in Marvel Studies to make sense of what’s happening. Joe Bennett’s art continues to amaze and astound, while the two guest artists in this volume fit right into place alongside Bennett’s dayglo-woodcut-horror schtick.

A lot of major plot elements come to a head in this one; we get endings & beginnings as Ewing continues to evolve our understanding of what the Hulk truly is. This series is haunting & terrible and a wonder to read, as always. Looking forward to more.
