Broken Frontier interviews Greg Pak about “Planet Hulk” and “World War Hulk”

BrokenFrontier.com has posted an interview conducted by Adrian Zettlemoyer with “Planet Hulk” and “World War Hulk” writer Greg Pak. An excerpt:

BF: Your take on Hulk was one that was intelligent and driven to make a difference. At the beginning, did you have to wrestle with how to portray the Big Guy?
GP: I always knew that the Hulk needed to be smart to survive on Sakaar and to fully experience the emotional epic we had in store for him. But in writing that first issue, it took a few passes to get the right feel for just how he’d talk.
In the end, I found myself thinking about Clint Eastwood in his Spaghetti Western days – he wouldn’t say much, but when he talked, it’d be tough, hard, and to the point. And usually either scary or funny, or both.
