And also, any chance the Planet Hulk storyline will be relesased in oversized HC? I'd say it's the perfect story for said treatment but you never know.

And thanks for the review of New Universal, I think i'll go pick that up this weekand.
C,I picked up tranquility but haven't read it yet. Planet Hulk has not been announced for HC yet, but you never know. And WORD fellas on New Universal...

They'll probably release a set of Premiere HC and trades first. Usually the oversized HC comes out at least year after the original comics are published. That way they can get some people to buy the same story in 3 different formats, since each version is nicer than the one before.

That's fine by me. As long as they tell me it's coming out, I'll gladly wait for the oversized HC. I'm addicted to them

Great reviews guys!

For anyone that is interested, there is a 10-page preview of Spider-Man:Reign #1 over at the 'Rama....(Hope the link works)

http://www.newsarama.com/marvelnew/reign/preview.html


This issue of Hulk was really well done. It was great to get some insight into the anger the Hulk has inside for those that banished him to outer space. The fact that he is getting stronger is scary! Great scene where he "got what he came for"!

I always liked the New Universe. I was going to pass on this newuniversal, but I might check it out now!

The really scary part about the Hulk is he's already the strongest person in the Marvel U, making him even stronger is just down right horrifying.

He was weakened, though, passing through the worm hole that brought him to this planet. I assumed he's been getting stronger to get back to his original level. But maybe he'll move even past that!

"Stunned" is how I would describe my reaction to "Spider-Man: Reign." At first, the overt homage/theft of the Dark Knight Returns bugged me, and I was sure I had decided I didn't like it. But the more I read, the more the comic got under my skin. This is one dark, depressing comic, but an indeniably gripping one. At the end of the day, here are the two basic questions I ask myself when deciding if I like a comic: "Do I want to read it again? Do I want to read more of the story?" The answer in both cases here is an overwhelming "Yes."

I couldn't agree more... I hated it and yet loved it at the same time... I was in shock, but wanted to read more and figure things out!
