Bruce Banner is trapped inside Shadow Base Site A — powerless and hunted by their top assassin. He can’t run forever. He can’t change form. He can’t survive...without THE IMMORTAL HULK. But not the one you think.
British writer Al Ewing is an unlikely creator to restore Hulk to comic book success. He’s written Judge Dredd, Mighty Avengers , Ultimates and other name properties but until now he’s never scribed anything most readers would call must read. His success on Immortal Hulk elevates his status and he’s the primary creative voice on the upcoming Marvel Comics #1000. Brazilian artist Joe Bennett has been in the industry much longer. He started publishing Brazilian horror comics back in the 90’s. Bennett cut his teeth in North American comics on titles Amazing Spider-Man, Captain America, Fantastic Four and Incredible Hulk. His past work on horror comics serves Immortal Hulk well. Al Ewing and Joe Bennett are redefining the classic Hulk character.
The team take the first page to catch readers up on the current situation following Immortal Hulk #16. Bruce Banner and his therapist fell into a trap searching for Rick Jones’ body. They arrived at Shadow Base A and Agent Burbank killed his therapist. The trap was sprung when they fired up their UV emitters forcing Hulk to retreat. He only comes out at night and Bruce banner was shot. I love it when writers take the time to welcome new readers to a series and catch them up best they can.
Veteran horror artist Bennett uses multiple tricks to create a sense of urgency and dread. He orients panel angles and reader perspective to ratchet up tensions. His excellent details on facial expression are perfect for Ewing’s intense narrative style. Ruy Jose inks Bennett’s excellent line art and they create extremely dynamic, vicious action scenes. The pairing of Bennett and Jose push Immortal Hulk to the forefront of mainstream horror comics.
An overarching theme of the series is Bruce Banner’s dissociative identity disorder. Bruce’s multiple personalities were confirmed a few issues back. There is much potential for exploration moving forward. This issue we’re introduced to a new personality Joe. General Fortean, a Thunderbolt Ross stand-in, and his team cross-reference “Joe” with Ross’ old files. The discover Joe is in fact Joe Fixit. An alias Banner once used during his Gray Hulk days.
