Greg Pak: Hulk

Greg Pak has written multiple classic runs of Hulk stories, including the Planet Hulk epic that inspired the gladiator storyline in the Thor: Ragnarok movie, the 2007 event comic World War Hulk, Skaar: Son of Hulk, which starred Hulk’s half-alien barbarian son, and The Totally Awesome Hulk ongoing series starring Amadeus Cho.

You can buy signed copies of a lot of these books at the Greg Pak Shop!

Giant Build-a-Figure of Amadeus Cho featured in the new Marvel Legends series from Hasbro!

Totally Awesome Hulk Build-a-Figure from Hasbro's new Marvel Legends action figure series

This one was a surprise! As IGN reports, Hasbro has announced its new Marvel Legends action figure set — which includes a massive Totally Awesome Hulk Build-a-Figure! One body part of the Totally Awesome Hulk figure is included in the package of each of the other characters in the series — if you collect them all, you can assemble Amadeus Cho!

I’m always thrilled to see Amadeus get more love. I co-created him with artist Takeshi Miyazawa way back in 2005; his incarnation as the Totally Awesome Hulk was designed by artist Frank Cho.

What a world.

PLANET HULK WORLDBREAKER miniseries coming this November!

Planet Hulk Worldbreaker #1 cover

As you probably know, dear reader, I love the Hulk and the entire Hulk family, so I’m beyond thrilled to dive back into their world with PLANET HULK WORLDBREAKER, a new miniseries set 1000 years in the future, written by yours truly with interior art by the great Manuel Garcia, colors by the great Chris Sotomayor, and cover by Carlo Pagulayan!

I absolutely love expanding the worldbuilding and mythos of PLANET HULK with PLANET HULK WORLDBREAKER. I also love that we’re deepening the themes with our characters 1000 years down the line.

I don’t want to spoil anything, but it’s been 15 years since I wrote the last issue of the original PLANET HULK, and I’m frankly feeling every one of those years. So exploring how our characters grapple with 1000 years of experience in a chaotic world feels deeply resonant and relevant to me.

Here’s the official solicit:

A thousand years from now on the planet Sakaar, a young woman with green skin searches for the legendary Green Scar to help save her brother from a group of apocalyptic cultists. But which Hulk will she find? And after all these years, is he truly the Sakaarson, who will save us all — or the Worldbreaker, who will destroy us?

Please do feel free to ask your local comic shop to preorder PLANET HULK WORLDBREAKER #1 for you today!
