The PULSE interview Pak about “Warbound”

Posted on by

Jen Contino at the PULSE has interviewed writer Greg Pak about his “World War Hulk Aftersmash: Warbound” miniseries. An excerpt:

THE PULSE: What is it about this story that you think is going to win it an audience with today’s jaded comic reader? How does this appeal to the masses?
PAK: One of the advantages about writing a story with relatively new characters is that the audience has the thrill of knowing that literally anything might happen at any moment. So in the “Warbound” miniseries, we can develop our characters’ lives and stories to real conclusions, massive changes, or definitive endings. During the course of the “Planet Hulk” and “World War Hulk” epic, at least five of our major characters died or went missing — that allows for real drama and high impact emotional storytelling.

ComicsFairplay plugs “Planet Hulk” again

Posted on by

Heidi Meeley at ComicsFairplay.com read “Planet Hulk” again — and loved “Planet Hulk” again. Here’s an excerpt from her post:

The last few days I decided to go back and re-read the Planet Hulk saga. It is one of those rare stories that is even better the second time around. Writer Greg Pak truly created a fantastic adventure in this story. The characters are compelling, the storyline fascinating, and there was opportunity for the Hulk to expand his horizons, so to speak.

Sean T. Collins says nice things about Greg Pak in his year-end wrap up

Posted on by

Sean T. Collins’ year end review of mainstream comics at ComicsReporter.com has this to say about writer Greg Pak’s work on “Planet Hulk” and “World War Hulk”:

Greg Pak is a good, conscientious writer. The run-up to WWH had Hulk becoming a Spartacus figure on a faraway planet, and he really put in the effort of developing the different societies and races there while many writers would have just said “draw some crazy aliens.” That carried over into his pacing of WWH, who fought who and how, the way the characters entered and exited the series and interacted with each other when they were there, and so on.

Comixtreme reviews “Warbound” #1 again — and likes it again!

Posted on by

Comixtreme has posted another review of “Warbound” #1 — this time by Adam Chapman. An excerpt:

This is a very entertaining issue, as we see the irony of the Warbound being in the Hulk’s situation. Pak makes both the Warbound AND Waynesboro relatable and interesting, and sympathetic…. I’m a real fan of Pak’s use of the varied characters here, and Korg and Hiroim remain as awesome as ever. Those two are without a doubt the fan favourites of the Warbound, and for good reason. Both characters are really interesting to read, and the dialogue that Pak supplies works perfectly.
