Rebirth of the Gamma Giant

 

     Marvel has made it clear the universe is going to be realigned. No matter how strong Hulk gets he can't overcome his main antagonists...Marvel Think Tank. What does this mean for us Hulk fans? Marvel is doing a DC New 52 move after Secret Wars and Battle World. How this affects our favorite gamma beast is what I am waiting on. I have been scouring the internet for any tidbits of info pertaining to this subject. What I have found out is Gerry Duggan will be staying on after Omega Hulk. And has stated he wouldn't of started with a smart Hulk from a clean slate. He was left this baggage from the previous tenants. Good chance Marvel might let him start from a clean slate after Battle World.

     Which leaves the question. Which Hulk persona will be the dominant? Will we see a parade of two or three different Hulk personalities emerge? One can only imagine. Since I am a gambling man. My money will be Marvel brings back Savage Hulk and he is not a team player. To me Savage Hulk can embody gravage Hulk attributes of speech. I do not want to ever see Greg Pak's Hulk Dad again. I am sorry to all the Pak fans who believe he does no wrong. I prefer my Hulk always fucking scary and very volatile, boiling over with rage. I see the reboot as a breath of fresh air. A chance to relive why hero and villain fear Hulk.

     One thing I thought was missing from Hulk the past six or so years. Is the military aspect. There was a time when a openly or secret military coup was waged against Hulk non-stop. Hulk not really having too many allies or friends. Everyone uses or needs Hulk..but he doesn't need them. The Bruce Banner and Hulk dynamic shared psyche needs to be explored more. Reading a whole issue or two about a story in Banner's mind wasn't consider filler..but added to character growth. Seeing and witnessing the inner struggle to restrain the beast or beasts depending on the writer. Was something that has always fascinated me. Him losing control should always be at the forefront of his number one fears. And when Banner loses control we see why he fears it so much. Hopefully Gerry Duggan has a say on what Hulk he wants. Most fans would love to see Gravage Hulk as a healthy compromise. Me I just a want a dangerous Savage Hulk who goes from 50 to 100 real quick. If you look tough he wants a piece of you friend or foe. Hulk must always show how strong and tough he is. Hulk is the bully's bully. End of rant!

Life After Omega Hulk

One thing that Hulk fan's can count on is the inevitable changing of the guards. Yes Mark Bagley is leaving after Omega Hulk vol.2. He was a consistent artist that hit some pages out of the park. Would he have been my first, second or even seventh pick? No! But he did manage to win me over with some issues. Doc Green persona won't last either especially after the BattleWorld event Marvel is holding. So which Hulk incarnation will take the helm? Does Gerry Duggan have a say? I sure hope so. He has confessed he is a Hulk fan. He hasn't stated on record if Hulk is his favorite. A lot of readers agree if there is a reboot. Gravage Hulk should be the dominate persona. For me it doesn't stop there. I demand my Hulk to be brave, reckless, ferocious and unrelenting in dulling out punishment with his fists. The dangerous Hulk needs to comeback. Hulk has lost that savage dangerous side of him. When so-called allies don't want to stand to close to him in fear of him lashing out at them. Hulk with very few friends is a dangerous Hulk. Losing it to the rage has been a aspect that we have all missed from our Walking Gamma Nuke these last five or six years.

Will Banner see more on panel time this go around? He has been very absent from the Hulk comics. Not a deal breaker considering Mark Waid just did a excellent job making a place for Banner on earth. Hard to predict what Gerry has in store. Will we get a healthy dose of Hulk and Banner after Omega
Hulk? And who will be the new artist? Fingers crossed for me that Mike Deodato Jr. makes stab at it for a while especially if its Gravage or Savage Hulk that Gerry Duggan and Hulk editorial decide on.

Gerry Duggan the next Jeff Parker or PAD?



How can I start this off other then saying Gerry Duggan has to hit a home run with this Omega Hulk arc. Hulk fans are extremely agitated as of right now. Especially after Mark Waid's dismissal of Hulk's fans desires and wants. After a relaunch on the series..Hulk fans find out Waid is still onboard.

HULK#5 written by Gerry Duggan

Hulk fans going insane with rage. But after the last arc Who Shot Hulk. Mark Waid actual bowed out gracefully with a good story. It left the doors open for the new writer Gerry Duggan. Writer of Deadpool and Nova. First I was like "Who is Gerry Fucking Duggan?" and why isn't Jeff Parker writing the new Hulk. But after picking up a Nova issue..I am like man this guy can write and Hulk is his favorite. Then I hear he is doing a eight to ten issue arc called Omega Hulk. God damn! Now he has my attention.

"I had some chats with Mark, and I thought what he's done with Hulk and Banner are brilliant," Duggan said to Newsarama. "It's very grounded, and logical; of course Bruce would make that kind of deal with S.H.I.E.L.D. for the lab with infinite funding in exchange for letting the monster loose. I'm also going to be keeping Banner’s assistants, but also bringing some old friends and new faces."



OMEGA HULK

Keeping Banner's lab assistants is a smart move. One of my gripes with Waid's Indestructible Hulk run is he didn't flesh out Banner's assistants enough. I started losing interest in them quick. Gerry Duggan is also stating he is bringing in some new faces. I am scratching my head on what that actually means. Does he plan on creating new heroes or villians to add to the Hulk mythos....or some Marvel characters that never interacted with Hulk before. Personally I would love to see Blue Marvel interact with Hulk/Banner.

Gerry Duggan: I have so much love for the Hulk that it almost hurts.

I don't know about you....but having a true Hulk fan helm the adventures of you favorite hero is a plus in my book. Hulk fans are willing to give you the benefit of the doubt. But be warned! Mark Waid said all the right things in his interviews and marketing of Indestructible Hulk...but failed to deliver a finished product. Best of luck and Godspeed Gerry Duggan. Halls of Hulk is waiting and watching


My Inner Fanboy "So says The Leader" .01

"Truth be told this is a nice little skirmish for Hulk. Not a Juggernaut or Thor fight per say   ..but a decent workout. You can probably throw another two bruisers in there like...Warpath and Rhino. The odds weigh heavy in Hulk's favor to take the majority. Banner doesn't deserve this power!"

 

Not happy unless Hulk is smashing #1

What If: Planet Hulk

Some pages make a real Hulk fan smile and feel all warm inside. This is one of them. Sentry on his knees Green Scar in all his righteous anger and might humbling the Yellow Prince of the Sun aka The Sentry.

Adamantium shrapnel barrage focused on Hulk. There are not too many who can take that and fight on. Hulk healed from a Adamantium Shrapnel Shower..ten tons of it. World War Hulk haters deny every feat of the Jade Giant.

I called it then....

Posted: January 23, 2013 | 12:10 PM

"Wait a sec, GammaCosmic.

Cool down a bit. I think you're forgetting that Gorr didn't kill that giant god who was rumored to wrestle black holes alone. In fact, it appears that Gorr has hundreds, maybe even thousands of Black Beserkers who greatly assist him in the killing of numerous and/or more powerful gods. In fact, Gorr has been killing mostly gods that would battle a young Thor, who isn't even near the power of his older warrior self that fought alongside the Avengers and Hulk."

Those Black Beserkers are part of Gorr The God Butcher..he creates them out of a substance from his body. And that fight was never shown..we just seen the after math. It was a god that was stated on panel the being wrestled black holes for fun. None of the opponents Hulk has faced so far could even remotely do that. And Gorr slayed that god. Gorr leaves his constructs Black Berserkers at the bodies if any other gods show up. And there is nothing stating Gorr is killing gods weaker then Young Thor..except if you want to count Gods of Songs and Poetry.

"And I have to agree with my friend's post below. We just need to give Waid some time. Who knows, you might be kicking yourself later once Mark Waid reveals something truly epic in scope down the line in Indestructible Hulk. He's know for doing that kind of writing. If you don't believe me, his Daredevil run is proof of that."

Why do we place so much faith in this writer to bridge the gap. Everything is on panel that he is erasing Pak's, Peter David and Aaron's work. He is writing Banner and Hulk as if he just picked up where Bill Mantlo left off. The way he wrote Iron Man as if Tony has no idea why Banner is mad at him. In that issue Waid could of mentioned Hulk bringing a war to earth, Tony and company shooting him into space. Even SHIELD seems like they don't even remember. Waid said so himself to you Hulk's speech will vary..meaning Hulk will growl or maybe say a few words..like "RACKER".  Everytime I point out something..you guys have a explanation for Waid. I said this is Savage Hulk goodbye GreenScar..you guys say we don't know that Waid might have something planned. Even though AvX, A+X has Hulk talking childlike again before this series dropped. You guys are hoping for the best and staying blinded to the reality of it. It is easier for Waid to write Banner and regular humans then Hulk. He didn't even want to write Hulk he said. He had to be coaxed into writing Hulk. Daredevil and Hulk are totally different in everyway.

1. No reason what so ever why Savage Hulk is back

2. Banner and Hulk truce seemed to never happen

3. Avengers versus X-Men was a new starting point for Hulk. They re-introduced Savage Hulk in that series to let us know that is the Hulk you are getting for now on. Hickman's Avengers samething. Are you telling me Waid has this idea of Banner and Hulk biding there time to reveal he is still the Green Scar?

That is delusional thinking..you guys are so trapped in the matrix. Just be honest to yourself and admit Green Scar/WWH is gone. Marvel is rebooting Hulk back to Savage form.  And this has happen many times already. When Marvel says something..writers do it. My gripe isn't about Savage Hulk..I actually like this form. My gripe is the way he was introduced back. There was no story to bridge the gap to tell why. We are hoping Waid does tell us. But this title change was to get new readers in also. Who only knows Hulk by being dumb and strong. I don't need a year of Hulk comics to know where it is heading. By the time the Nine Realms arc is done it will be 9 issues in..close to a year. And I bet you nothing will be mentioned. Look how easy you guys are on him..by fighting his fights for him and giving him the benefit of the doubt that he will talk about this at some point. Waid doesn't have to be bogged down by other writers..but he owes us a quick couple panels of why Banner doesn't ever talk about his kids and him and Hulk coming to a understanding.

here is the link to this discussion thread: http://fans.marvel.com/go/thread/view/108222/29634353/Mark_Waids_Hulk_weaker_then_Jason_Aarons_Thor?pg=4 

Mark Waid set on bringing back Abomination

Waid: Some of the Hulk-centric villains we'll be doing more with. I think the Abomination is overdue for a reintroduction. As far as other versions of Hulk, this is something Jason Aaron is doing really well with his "Thor: God of Thunder" book right now, and so I'm really nervous about treading on that ground.

Don't know how I feel about Waid touching one of Hulk's most iconic foes. Will Mark erase Emil's struggles and tribulations? Last we seen of Abomination he was extremely enhanced by The Chaos King and giving the Green Scar a run for his money. I am willing to bet my last dollar that most Hulk fans including myself enjoyed Emil back amped and stronger then Hulk. That has always been Abomination's vice. He was twice as strong as Hulk. So I was pleasantly surprise to see Emil back to his old self to some extent in Chaos War. Chaos War Abomination wouldn't go down so easy to Rulk..unless Ross used his absorption powers to level the playing field. What is Mark's plan for Emil? How does he plan to bring him back from the dead? Or will Emil show up as if Chaos War never happened?

     So Mr. Waid might of stuck his foot in his mouth by mentioning he is considering bringing Emil back. Let's face it..a lot of Hulk fans are scrutinizing Waid's work more now. Especially since he has not referenced PAD, Pak, Bruce Jones or Aaron's work.  In a sense he has time traveled back before them and seems to stop his time machine before Bill Mantlo's era.  I am all for Abomination making another return...just be ready Mark to fix those loose ends when writing him. By mentioning Planet Hulk, World War Hulk and Chaos War.

Infinity: Hulk Rant#2

Infinity is almost here. If you are a long time Hulk fan. Then you will know Hulk has been in everything named Infinity when it comes to Marvel. From Infinity Crusade to The Infinity Gauntlet. So it is no surprise Holku is making a major splash in Marvel Now Infinity. Half of me is very excited to see my Jade Giant streaking across solar systems in all his gamma might to face Thanos and The Black Order. The other half of me is skeptical that Hickman will short change Hulk in the feats department. To give room to his new pet Hyperion. Readers of Hickman's Avengers pick up on the not so subtle favoritism of Hyperion on this series. Don't get me wrong. Hickman hasn't shown any disrespect to Hulk's power-set. And he writes a mean Bruce Banner. It is fifty fifty on who writes a better Banner out of Hickman and Waid.

     But when it is all said and done. I believe Hulk is in good hands with Hickman's Avengers run. As of June
30, 2013 I do not know if Indestructible Hulk has any plans for tie-ins to Infinity. Time will reveal. With that said, there is a good chance there will be a tie-in. There is a Age of Ultron tie-in coming. And Marvel seems content on keeping Hulk in the limelight. A lot of us where not happy that Hulk missed Marvel's Civil War, Secret Invasion and The Siege. When Hulk was mentioned as one of the Worthy I was pumped. Then Matt Fraction happened. He didn't have a clear picture on how to use a amped up Hulk on panel. He did a great job in interviews describing Nul/Hulk' power...but a piss poor job on delivering it. I am not mad at him, just left wanting more out of Nul. Love the concept and do believe he was in amp mode..just little on panel proof.
  
I won't be buying every Infinity tie-in. Just the core mini, Avengers, The Mighty Avengers and Indestructible Hulk(if there is one). If Hulk makes a Guardians of The Galaxy cameo..I most likely will pick up the issue. So refreshing seeing Banner using his big brain. Just wish he was part of the New Avengers cast also.

p.s. I would love to see Hulk rip Gladiator off his throne and Smash him.

Infinity: Hulk Rant#1

I haven't been this happy since World War Hulk. The idea of Hulk just duking it out in space has me so fucking excited. And the chance Hulk might trade blows with Black Dwarf. I hope there is a stare down between them. Both sizing up each other. This is a chance for Hickman to really let Hulk loose. Earth is too small for Hulk's might sometimes. Its good to see him let loose..let the dog off the leash gamma mode.

     Black Dwarf looks like he been to Sakaar sometime in his life. I will admit he does look like he is wearing World War Hulk like armor. Out of the Black Order Black Dwarf peaks my interest and garners my hidden respect. Could this be Hulk's new Abomination? Scary thought! Why couldn't they give Hulk is Planet Hulk gear..or at least his Shadow-Forged Sword? Guessing Black Dwarf powerset..I bet he is built like Colossus with Cyttorak in Demon mode. If Marvel robs me of this should be epic fight..I will not buy another mega event series. Mark my words. Make Mine Gamma!

INFINITY: Hulk vs Black Order Outcomes Pt.1

 

      Lets be honest! This is the match up all Real Hulk Fans want to see. Hulk vs Black Dwarf. Right off the gate Black Dwarf has size and most likely a way higher baseline strength then Hulk. We will have to face it Hulk fans. Hulk will get owned first encounter. Hickman is making it known he is a powerhouse on a Cosmic scale! Marvel is trying to bring some new villains into 616 universe. With Marvel stating these guys are in Silver Surfer's league all in their own way. 

     Black Order Lieutenants will have a better pool of Intel on adversaries strength and weaknesses. Black Dwarf might just let it all out quick and hard. If Hulk is caught off guard he will get rocked. But with that said Hulk's healing factor is in thee Elite Class of Healing Factors. If Hulk's Healing Factor can keep up with the damage taken. He can very much amp up to give considerable damage back. Since Marvel's launch of Marvel Now the number of Incredible feats by Hulk are slim. Hulk dropping Starbrand and Mind Controlled Hulk subduing Thor..both written in Hickman's Avengers run. But with those few above level feats there is real potential in Hulk's corner. Hulk was physically unfazed by Starbrand's Orbital BFR Energy Projection Burst. And Starbrand was holding his own against the Avengers.

     I believe Hickman has the ability to write a unforgettable showdown between both behemoths. Hickman has shown great respect to Hulk's power set thus far in his run. But this is all conjecture on my part. We have not seen Black Dwarf in battle. Corvus Glaive is thee only one thus far to rear his ugly head on panel. As die hard Hulk fan my gut is telling me Hulk won't get too much Black Dwarf alone time. Maybe a blow or two we could hope. I see Hickman writing  Hulk and Hyperion tag-team against the Dense Star himself Black Dwarf.

"He's larger than Thanos, actually. On the surface, the name Black Dwarf makes you think it's a little guy, but you're really talking about something with the mass of a dwarf star that's very dense and very solid," Brevoort said. "He's a powerhouse, certainly, and physically the most imposing simply standing there. He's the one guy, really, that dwarfs Thanos if you've got all six of them standing together. He's massive. By contrast, [he] is probably the most serene-seeming of the Thanos lieutenants. He does his business, he's just as bad as any of the others, but he's not as outwardly sinister or verbose or forthcoming. He's a little bit more even-keeled because there's just no need for him to be otherwise. He's just so massive."

Hulk Worthy Foes: The New Brotherhood PART 4 of 4

The Brotherhood:
Cyclops
Magneto
Emma Frost
Magik

New Brotherhood

 Magik:  has the mutant ability to teleport herself and others through time and space from one location to another by summoning "stepping discs", which are part of a dimension known as Limbo in the Marvel Universe.  Magik is the sorceress supreme of her Limbo dimension. The extent of her powers in Limbo has yet to be defined, but powerful demons of Limbo did not dare challenge her.  The more that Magik uses her magical power on any occasion, the more mystical armor appears on her body in addition to demonic features such as horns, hooves, a tail and scales. The armor deflects or limits attacks, both physical and magical.  Magik's Soulsword disrupts magic energies, constructs and creatures. It also augments the power level of any magic user who holds it. The Soulsword generally has no physical effect whatsoever, but disrupts even the most powerful magic as it passes through. It can shatter enchantments and destroy mystical creations and creatures.

Emma Frost: She is capable of extraordinary psionic feats, including the telepathic standards of: broadcasting and receiving thoughts, mind-control, altering perceptions and memories, psychic shielding, astral projection, mind switching, brain engram modification, mental sedation, induction of mental pain via touch.  Emma's diamond body is virtually tireless as she does not produce fatigue poisons and has no need for water nor food. She is also numbed from emotion, pain and empathy, impervious to cold.  Frost has a gifted intellect with college degrees in multiple fields, including a Bachelors of Science in Education

Magneto:
Magneto is a mutant with the power to manipulate electromagnetic fields to achieve a wide range of effects.
The primary application of his power is control over magnetism and the manipulation of ferrous and nonferrous metal. While the maximum amount of mass he can manipulate at one time is unknown, he has moved large asteroids several times and effortlessly levitated a 30,000 ton nuclear submarine. His powers extend into the subatomic level (insofar as the electromagnetic force is responsible for chemical bonding), allowing him to manipulate chemical structures and rearrange matter, although this is often a strenuous task. He can manipulate a large number of individual objects simultaneously and has assembled complex machinery with his powers. He can also affect non-metallic and non-magnetic objects to a lesser extent and frequently levitates himself and others. He can also generate electromagnetic pulses of great strength and generate and manipulate electromagnetic energy down to photons. He can turn invisible by warping visible light around his body

Cyclops: Master Tactician and Strategist. Cyclops has spent most of his superhero career as the leader of either the X-Men or X-Factor and has developed exceptional leadership skills. According to Nick Fury's files, Scott's abilities are at their best in tense situations. Fury notes that the less time Cyclops has to think about a decision, the better that decision is.  Cyclops has the power to emit beams of energy from his eyes described as an "optic blast." The beams have the appearance of red light (i.e., electromagnetic radiation in a red wavelength); however, they do not give off heat and instead deliver concussive force without recoil. The beams are tremendously powerful and can be used to rupture steel plates and pulverize rock. 

Hulk Worthy Foes: Apocalypse PART 3 of 4

 In the harsh, unforgiving desert of ancient Egypt, ruled by Rama-Tut, a band of nomadic raiders found an infant, gray-skinned and freakish in appearance, abandoned by the settlers of Akkaba. The nomads took the child for their own, giving him the name En Sabah Nur, “The First One,” and teaching him to be "strong" in order to survive the desert as a child. This idea, that "the strong will survive," would shape Apocalypse's actions throughout time.

 

Apocalypse is an ancient mutant born with a variety of superhuman abilities who further augmented himself after merging with Celestial technology. The character has total control over the molecules of his body, enabling him to alter his form as it suits him, such as allowing his body to become extremely malleable and flexible or change its size, enhance his physical abilities, transform his limbs into weapons or wings and jets, regenerate from fatal injuries, adapt his body to apparently any disease or hostile environment and give himself virtually any physical superhuman power. The character is also able to project and absorb energy, and has displayed telepathy and telekinesis. Apocalypse is as well capable of technopathy, able to directly interface with the various technologies he has at his disposal. Apocalypse is also immortal, and immune to aging, not needing sustenance of any kind and can survive fatal injuries. Whether this is a separate ability or a result of his shapeshifting powers is unclear.
Aside from his superhuman powers, Apocalypse is extraordinarily intelligent, a scientific genius with knowledge in various areas of science and technology including physics, engineering, genetics and biology, that is far more advanced than conventional science. Apocalypse has knowledge of Celestial technology that he uses for his own applications, such as altering mutants or humans. Apocalypse is also a skilled demagogue and a master strategist.
Apocalypse's blood can heal other mutants, but is fatal for humans. Apocalypse's blood can also restore his de-powered mutant descendants as is seen when a large dose of Apocalypse's blood regenerates the lost body part of Chamber and gave him a look similar to Apocalypse. It is hinted that this evolved Chamber's power to Omega Level.

Is The High Evolutionary to big for Mark Waid to write?

     Mark Waid has told us he is writing a "Smart Guy Comic". I want to believe him..but it would be nice to see Bruce interact with some big name geniuses.  To be fair Waid did give us Tony Stark in issue two. There are a lot of big brains meeting and interacting on 616 earth all the time. Mainly the Illumanti who are using there brains to avert world disasters. Why was Bruce excluded from the group? And Captain America given a chance over Bruce Banner? I wish I had the answers to share.

   Give Bruce Banner his own lane then like Hank Pym.  How would Bruce react to another being smarter then them all?  In steps The High Evolutionary and his Seeker.  Lets face it Bruce has always thought of himself in Reed, Stark, McCoy and Pym's league! High Evolutionary is a step higher in the Intelligence Food Chain. Could Mark Waid find a plausible way to write Herbert Edgar Wyndham and Bruce Banner in a issue of Indestructible Hulk? Nobody is denying Waid is a smart writer and a talented one. High Evolutionary just feels like it would be right up Mr. Waid's alley. Hulk and High Evolutionary have a shared history. Take a dive at it..own the character Waid. You learned how to write and love Banner Waid. Now do the same for the Hulk. If you love writing Bruce Banner, you should love writing the Hulk. Because they are the same...Hulk is Bruce and Bruce is Hulk. Lets make this happen Gamma Warriors. Make Mine Gamma!

Hulk Worthy Foes: Blastaar PART 2 of 4

Blastaar is a member of a race called the Balurrians, based in the Negative Zone. He ruled them for years as a brutal leader until they finally rose up and overthrew him, then sealed him up within a containment suit and set him adrift. It was only when the inhuman Triton braved the Negative Zone to save an adrift Mister Fantastic that the Explosive Belt around Earth revived Blastaar

    
Blastaar has superhuman strength and endurance, and is incredibly durable and resistant to injury; conventional weapons and even ballistic missiles could have no effect on him. His superhuman constitution can withstand extreme variations in temperature and pressure. He is virtually tireless. He can live without nourishment for several weeks and survive in the vacuum of space by inducing himself into a state of hibernation.  He is capable of self-propelled flight at escape velocity. He can project blasts of highly concussive kinetic force from his hands. He can channel the same concussive force to give him flight by propelling himself through the air like a rocket, and can maintain this thrust almost indefinitely. His energy blasts can temporarily disrupt the molecular integrity of the Eternals.
He is also highly trained in the arts of warfare of and by his race and has access to advanced technology from his home world such as starships and powerful plasma-based weapons. Most often, however, he only uses his powers without augmentation.

Hulk Worthy Foes: OMEGEX PART 1of 4

The Omegex was born within the Red Hole of Dargalla after enough energy was absorbed to give the creature life. It was designed by the Kryihd to exterminate their hated enemies, the Dargallans, and then be destroyed after its mission was completed. The Dargallans altered the Red Hole, ensuring once the Omegex returned to it the process would begin again. Eventually a new Omegex was born, and the Kryihd felt its wrath. Having destroyed both races the Omegex would select random targets and annihilated several species until such a time the Watchers chose to break their vow of non-interference and move the Red Hole of Dargalla outside the galaxies where it would take much longer to gather the energy needed to create the Omegex, but it was a process that could only be slowed and not halted. Possibly sensing the Omegex was about to return, Uatu the Watcher abandoned his post on Earth and traveled to the Red Hole to witness its birth. Once the Omegex came forth it detected an energy signature on Uatu from when he came into physical contact with the Red Hulk. The Omegex found its next target and immediately left the Red Hole, headed for Earth. It was briefly delayed when the Norrak attacked, but it exterminated the remainder of their species before continuing on its way.

Okay I am hooked. Hopefully they don't make up superheroes and they use existing ones. I am wondering if the black guy is Luke Cage?

Marvel's Agents of S.H.I.E.L.D. Trailer

You don't have to be a Hulk fan to be excited about Marvel's new ABC series hitting this fall. So stoked I am shoving another blueberry poptart down my throat. This looks like it could be what the TV show Heroes should of been. And everybody favorite agent is back Mr. Coulson. Wondering how this fits in the story line with Marvel Studio's cinematic releases from Iron Man to Thor. My guess this will be taking place before the Avengers movie on the time line. From the trailer I heard the infamous Hulk growl. This opens up so many doors and very smart move by Marvel. Stay tuned in to Gamma Cosmic Herald for more updates on Agents of S.H.I.E.L.D. Make Mine Gamma!

Maestro Is Back..Again

Avengers #10 vol.5

Maestro Sketch

     I couldn't believe my eyes when reading Hickman's Avengers #10 vol.5. My exact words.."Holy shit is that the fucking Maestro?". GreenScar1990 was successful in getting Hulk's editorial staff to respond to his plea to bring Maestro back. But Waid and Company said it wasn't going to happen. But fucking Hickman had the balls to give us die hard Hulk fans a taste of the good ole days. Even if it was just a small panel. So many other writers have used future Hulk/Maestro. Why Hulk fans obsession over Maestro? Well to us he is our Future King Thor..but this future Hulk is more demented and a lot more powerful..oh yeah with Bruce Banner's intellect. He rules a future world where all the heroes and villains are dead or hiding. Peter David in his infinite gamma wisdom blessed us with the character. Maestro first appearance was in Future Imperfect #1.

   Who is GreenScar1990? One of the most vocal Hulk fans there is to use social media to get answers from comic book writers regarding all things Hulk. Got to love the guy's passion to call out Hulk writers to there face. I mean the guy butted heads with Jason Aaron. I have to admit I chosen the wrong side in that argument. Siding with Aaron I believed he could still give us a good Hulk run at the time. I believe he was on the second arc Banner vs Hulk. The art went to trash and the Stay Angry arc came and that was the nail in the coffin of Jason Aaron being our next PAD or Pak. Jason is still a great writer..and I enjoy his Thor run. But on the flip-side I am a little jealous how much he is hitting Thor God of Thunder out the park. Where was his art and passion for Hulk? Well that is water under the bridge or as Banner likes to say "Hulk happens".

A+X #1

     Mark Waid  said he didn't want to use the Maestro because Jason Aaron is writing a masterpiece dealing with different Thors in different time lines. Shaking my head. Waid in under a year is going to give us two time traveling arcs. One is out now Gods and Monsters and the other starts at Indestructible Hulk #12 A Time to Smash. Gods & Monsters could of been held in the time Maestro first came to be and before Thor and everyone perished from the Great War. How fucking cool would that of been Thor and Hulk vs Maestro. I just hate when a writer lies..just be honest and say I don't want to use him he doesn't fit into my plans. It seems Hickman and his Editorial staff are keeping there ears to the street...or is Hickman a undercover Maestro lover? In Avengers #10 that group of Avengers all under went changes. Specific variables tailored to them. Some like Hulk progressed to there future state in the form of Maestro. Which means the Maestro story line is still in continuity and viable. I hope Mark Waid jumps on this in his Year Two of Indestructible Hulk. Mark if you are reading this all we want for year two of Hulk is a Maestro sighting or possibly a Tutinax or Juggernaut show down. Make Mine Gamma!
