(Though ironically, I actually enjoyed Red Hulk in the early issues when it was just ridiculous, and lost interest once Loeb tried to give us an actual story).Anonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17773416732192167277noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-18827721.post-89512961381677597762011-01-21T08:48:09.760-05:002011-01-21T08:48:09.760-05:00Kevin, yeah unfortunately it turned out to be anot...Kevin, yeah unfortunately it turned out to be another one of those deceptive covers. There was no "real" Hulk/FF fight. If I recall there was either a shadowy version of the Hulk going through the Baxter Building and beating up everyone, or Bruce Banner had a nightmare about a shadowy Hulk going through the Baxter Building and beating up everyone. It was somehow connected to the fact that Nightmare was invading Bruce Banner's mind to make him go savage again (Banner was in control of the Hulk at this point).<br /><br />But, deceptive or not, the cover still makes me smile.Mick Martinhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06320185841491084888noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-18827721.post-67086311264846430842011-01-21T05:25:28.511-05:002011-01-21T05:25:28.511-05:00Well, I'll admit that part of my dislike may b...Well, I'll admit that part of my dislike may be by association. I think Jeph Loeb's Hulk books were horribly written and the very concept of the Red Hulk pisses me off (though I do think Jeff Parker's Red Hulk stories are much better than Loeb's). I'll always associate McGuinness with those stories.<br /><br />I also think in part his Hulk is too cartoon-y for my tastes. I don't know if you've ever seen the Dexter's Laboratory Hulk parody character, but if not do a google image search on the Infraggable Krunk. THAT character is the first thing I think of when I see Ed McGuinness's Hulk. And if your drawings of Hulk remind me of a parody of the character more than anything else, I'm probably not going to love it. In particular I hate the way he draws the Hulks' (hate that I have to pluralize that) veins, and I don't like his action sequences. It's my understanding that McGuinness is actually a big Hulk fan, so on a personal level I think it's cool that a Hulk fan got his dream job, but I just don't dig his work.Mick Martinhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06320185841491084888noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-18827721.post-10552226277250570962011-01-21T03:12:55.614-05:002011-01-21T03:12:55.614-05:00The Hulk Pops cover by Kaare Andrews is, BY FAR, m...The Hulk Pops cover by Kaare Andrews is, BY FAR, my favorite.<br /><br />Also, may I ask what you don't like about Ed McGuiness' Hulk art?Anonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17773416732192167277noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-18827721.post-56554448339003279482011-01-21T01:34:40.733-05:002011-01-21T01:34:40.733-05:00re: #293
