Ain’t It Cool digs “Incredible Hulk” #601
Here’s the blurb:
As for INCREDIBLE, Greg Pak–who with Fred Van Lente has been half the awesomeness behind INCREDIBLE HERCULES–does a great job of setting up some cool scenes as Banner returns to New York for the first time after World War Hulk. Of course, he’s met by basically the entire super powered community. Pak does a great job of writing Bruce and I look forward to reading more of this book. With Loeb actually trying and Pak delivering the goods, the Hulk is in better shape than ever before. And that makes this Hulk fan happy.

Bloggers dig “Incredible Hulk” #601
“Incredible Hulk” #601, written by Greg Pak with art by Ariel Olivetti, has nabbed a few “Best Comic of the Week” nods from bloggers. Here are some excerpts from a few reviews:
Gregor’s Comic Book Review:
Bruce Banner losing his abilities, would normally mean that he would disappear from comics for a while, but Pak is taking advantage of the smart, interesting and powerless Bruce Banner. This is an opportunity I’m glad they didn’t miss. There’s some great character interactions and fun scenes. Even if you aren’t a fan of the Hulk you should try this first issue. Don’t miss out!
It’s a great set up and… heeey… maybe that is what makes Pak such a great writer! His premises for stories are so well defined. He doesn’t stray from them either! He displays his guns and then sticks to them throughout the entire– no, I gotta stop! Fun fun fun! Can’t break Pak’s writing down too much! Greg Pak writes great stories that are FUN!!
Banner’s interaction with the rest of the big brains in the Marvel U alone could have carried this issue, but when he seeks out his son things really pick up and Banner’s plans to give the both of them what they want is perfect.
Ain’t It Cool digs “Rio Chino”
AintItCoolNews.com has posted a rave review of the Western anthology “Outlaw Territory.” Here’s what the reviewer had to say about “Rio Chino,” the contribution from writer Greg Pak and artist Ian Kim:
â€Rio Chino†by Greg Pak & Ian Kim: More frontier justice and another memorable gunman makes his debut. A “Chinaman†comes across a slaughterhouse of Chinese bodies and a white man caught in the crossfire. Add one bigoted sheriff to the mix and you have the makings of a good old shootout–but the Chinese cowboy has a few tricks up his sleeve. Greg Pak delivers some potent action in this little yarn.
