Betrayed by his allies on Earth, Hulk was shot into space to spend his remaining years on a desolate planet where he could harm no one. Unfortunately, Hulk’s ship was thrown off course and he crash landed on the alien world of Saakar. Weakened by the impact, Hulk was sold into slavery and forced to fight in a battle arena where he met new allies. After escaping with the help of his Warbound, Hulk started a revolutionary war against a corrupt government and set a world free. Hulk became king of Saakar and was praised by everyone. With a new wife and an unborn child Hulk could finally be at peace, or so he thought. The same ship that brought Hulk to Saakar had a nuclear core that blew up and killed millions, including his wife and unborn child. Now the Hulk is on his way back to Earth with only one thing on his mind…Revenge. Written by Greg Pak and drawn by artist John Romita Jr., World War Hulk is the sequel to Planet Hulk (in which the previous mentioned events took place). In WWH, Hulk returns to earth with his Warbound seeking revenge on those that sent him into space including, Mr. Fantastic of the Fantastic Four, Professor Xavier of the X-Men, Dr. Strange the Sorcerer Supreme, Black Bolt the king of the Inhumans, and Iron Man. Look forward to some awesomely illustrated, epic battles as Hulk smashes his way through waves of heroes with the ultimate goal of getting those who planned his departure. Collectively, this story arc is pretty good. It was hyped up to be Marvel’s blockbuster event of 2007 and did deliver a good plot with plenty off action. Personally, I didn’t care too much for the Hulk until Pak started writing it. Pak really shows us the potential of the Hulk by taking him from mindless brute to strategic leader and brother in arms.I’d definitely suggest checking out World War Hulk. However, I’d strongly recommend reading Planet Hulk before indulging in WWH so you understand everything going on and have no gaps in the story as Pak does a great job of tying the two together. Furthermore, the end of the arc shows us there’s more to be told. Not necessarily a cliff hanger, the last panel shows us there is still more to the story.
