Pak Talks Comics: Reader Q&A

Posted on by

Greg Pak’s latest “Pak Talks Comics” column is up at BrokenFrontier.com. Here’s an excerpt:

Scott H.: Now that Herc and Amadeus are back on Earth, will we see Amadeus searching for the real Kirby?
GP: Funny you should ask — “Incredible Hercules” #126, which hits comic book stores in February 2009, will include a story called “The Search for Kirby” that involves — you guessed it! — the search for Kirby! I’m particularly thrilled to report that Takeshi Miyazawa, the brilliant artist who illustrated the very first Amadeus Cho story back in “Amazing Fantasy” (v2) #15, is on board for this new tale. I just saw the layouts, and they’re every bit as subtle, funny, and moving as we’ve come to expect from Tak’s work.

Comixtreme loves “Incredible Hercules” #123

Posted on by

Adam Chapman has posted a rave review about “Incredible Hercules” #123 at Comixtreme.com. Here’s an excerpt:

This book is such a joy to read each and every month, a testament to the fact that Pak/Van Lente are one of the best writing teams in the comic book business today. They’ve taken Hercules, one of Marvel’s biggest oafs, and paired him with one of their newest, youngest characters, Amadeus Cho, and made them a fantastic buddy team-up, which is engaging each and every month.

IGN talks with Greg Pak about “War Machine”

Posted on by


IGN has interviewed Greg Pak about his upcoming “War Machine” ongoing. Here’s an excerpt:

IGN Comics: Besides his increased publicity with the movie, what do you feel justifies giving War Machine his own solo book again?
Pak: The 30-year anniversary of Jim Rhodes’s first appearance is coming up next year, so there’s a nifty commemorative reason right there. And there’s the simple fact that Rhodey’s one of Marvel’s greatest supporting characters of all time. But most importantly, editor Bill Rosemann had a brilliant pitch for a new War Machine storyline that filled a niche in the Marvel Universe and provided a totally consistent yet shocking next step for the character.
War Machine has become a one-man army with the self-assigned mandate to take on dictators, monsters, and madmen across the globe who up until now have committed unspeakable atrocities with almost total impunity. That’s an incredible set up for insane action with political and social subtext. And it’s a great milieu for exploring and challenging the core motivations of Jim Rhodes, who developed an enduring commitment to sticking up for the underdog as a bullied kid on the mean streets of South Philly and willingness to use force as a military man and as the armored hero known as War Machine.

Comixtreme raves about “Magneto Testament” #3

Posted on by

Adam Chapman has posted a rave review of “Magneto Testament” #3 at Comixtreme.com. Here’s an excerpt:

This issue is particularly harrowing and emotional, as Max and his family try to smuggle themselves out of the Warsaw Ghetto, and sees turning points in Max’s young life, which inexorably brings him to Auschwitz. [Greg] Pak is truly writing one of the best mini-series he’ll probably ever write, he’s taken such care and dedication to making this series just right, to avoid any possibility of trivializing such a serious topic as the Holocaust. He’s treating it anything but lightly, and it really does show through in his script and his plotting.
The artwork by [Carmine] Di Giandomenico is absolutely brilliant, this is his second mini-series under the MK imprint, and I’ll most definitely be there for the next one. His style is very expressive, and he captures the pain, the emotion, the heartache, the sadness, every emotion that Pak weaves into the story, he portrays it brilliantly on the page.

Greg Pak talks about Skaar in “Hulk Family”

Posted on by


The upcoming “Hulk Family” anthology book features a Skaar, Son of Hulk, story written by Greg Pak with pencils by Jheremy Raapack. Here’s an excerpt from the Marvel.com article in which Pak discusses the story:

“[It’s] called ‘School for Savages’ and depicts the first meeting between the young Skaar and the mysterious Shadow person known as Old Sam who serves as his mentor in the ongoing series,” Pak reveals. “For fear of spoiling too much, I’ll just say someone thinks he’s going to teach someone something and gets taught a lesson or two in return. With bonus cutfrog venom poultices and creepy cannibals and a loin cloth joke! And, most importantly, Skaar paints!”

“Hulk Family” hits stores on December 3.
