“Incredible Hercules” co-writers Greg Pak and Fred Van Lente have been interviewed by Dom Ducote and Dusty Crochet for the KANE AM 1240 Popmedia Primecast. Lots of talk about the art of collaboration and breaking into comics — and the Incredible Hulk.

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!
More bloggers dig “Incredible Hulk” #606
The reason I’ve been buying this series is because it’s written with wit and intelligence, and just when you think you know where the story is going, writer Greg Pak throws in a delightful curve. He’s made Banner into a figure almost as fearsome as the Hulk – and that’s saying something.
Great comic in the Fall of Hulks storyline. Buy Incredible Hulk 606.
Chris’s Invincible Super Blog:
… awesomely bug-nuts crazy…
… [the art] by Paul Pelletier was, simply put, excellent. Pelletier’s art reminded me of David Finch’s in almost every conceivable way, which to me isn’t a bad thing. Lots of energy bounced off of these pages, along with the trademark savagery that seems to follow any of the Hulks.
WeeklyCrisis.com reeeally likes “Incredible Hulk” #606
Ryan the Iowan has posted a rave review of “Incredible Hulk” #606 at the Weekly Crisis. Here’s an excerpt:
• The pull of the artists behind this week’s Incredible Hulk #606 (Paul Pelletier and Ryan Stegman) was enough to snag this issue a spot on my pull list and, must to my pleasure, it turned out to be one of the best books of the week.
• The lead story picks up the current status quo for the now-powerless Bruce Banner as “attempts†to be a “father†to Skaar, though his true alliances come to light as the Red Hulk sends him to Latveria to take on Doctor Doom.
• For being so action-oriented, this is a really complex story with a slew of twists and turn. Greg Pak does an awesome job of spinning and insanely dense story here.
• I’ve only read bits of the Fall of the Hulks story, so I was really surprised by how accessible this issue was. Pak does a good job of filling in some of the larger story gaps.
CBR gives “Incredible Hulk” #606 four stars
“Incredible Hulk” #606, written by Greg Pak with pencils by Paul Pelletier, has nabbed a four star review from Doug Zawisza at Comic Book Resources. Here’s an excerpt:
… this is one of the best issues of any “Hulk” title I’ve read in quite some time, thanks in part to the aforementioned visual effects trio and the solid writing of Greg Pak. Pak crams a lot into this book, never once forgetting that this is a title with the word “Hulk” featured prominently. Pak delivers Hulk in action — more than one Hulk, as a matter of fact. Pak gives the reader a Bruce Banner who should be feared for his conniving mind moreso than his alter ego.
