      I would man I totally get having crazy personal struggles that's what got me. If I can ever set something aside I always like donating something somewhere and that would be an excellent cause. Also did you see my other comment here about Rick Jones Green Hulk circa 1989? When he was the legit only green hulk for a brief time?

    2. I would like A-Force to be a book again.

    “I hope you guys have a good excuse for robbing a strip club.”

    The Pantheon Saga was during one of the weirder 90's periods. When Marvel and DC thought that Hulk and Superman respectively, needed guns???
    Gestalt was an interesting one and done villain/concept. The standalone antagonists used to happen a lot in Wolverine's early solo book and 80's-mid 90's X-Men. I wish they did it more. Instead of focusing on the favourites or derivates of them.
    I remember the Batchelor Party issue actually getting Hulk onto my pull list for a year or two. The art really impressed me at the time, too. I liked the subtle Mistress Death cameo too. Foreshadowing later stories.

    I didn't read a lot of Hulk back in the day, but that first issue you covered, the Infinity Gauntlet tie-in, it was one of those back issues books that I'd run into all the time when I was out buying comics. I think it was packaged.... somewhere... with two or three other books in a bag for like $3 or $4. So, I wound up with a couple of copies. I found it an eerie and dark, and really fascinating story. I'm really excited to hear you guys talk about it.

  • @capsulon445
    @capsulon445 Рік тому +2

    In regards to Hulk 385 it takes place during Infinity Gauntlet issue 6, after Adam Warlock has the Infinity Gauntlet and teleports Hulk, Nebula, Drax, and Star Fox away, prior to that Nebula didn't undo the snap, so it was Adam ( who took his sweet ass time) to restore the universe.

    Speaking of first comics, my first Spider-Man comic was unfortunately the Sins Past arc. I found the whole arc in a thrift shop for pocket change when I was a boy. In a way, you could say that hit me in a profound way also!

    @coyotestarship7412 Рік тому

    IMO this is j e if the greatest character defining runs I. Comic book history. Dale keowns art elevated the hulk from a savage and often “dumpy” looking character to a handsome emerald god that looked like he could bench press a battle as a warm up routine, and Peter David’s characterization of not only banner but of the entire supporting cast of this run made you look at them as people with powers, not just powers that were wielded by people . The portrayal of the hulk as a person suffering from mental illness and misunderstood by even his closest of friends was years ahead of its time and David he created the hulk that we all know and love that’s being used in the MCU today . This is top notch modern comic book fair and to this day I follow Peter David wherever he goes that man is a comic god!

  • @brianadkins3880
    @brianadkins3880 Рік тому +1

    I don't remember the issue with Gestalt right off but do fondly remember most of Peter David's run on The Incredible Hulk including the story with the bachelor party so was a little surprised it didn't "win" just because I remember it being a really fun issue due to plenty of humor.
    The young female archer is Atalanta. As others have already said, she and the others were part of a group called the Pantheon.
    For anyone who might not have known, Peter David also did a number of Star Trek novels. So, maybe check out those comic fans!
    It's a SMASHING good video! ;-)

    How about that part of the Mcfarlane hulk era when Rick became the legit green hulk (said to be bigger stronger and more ferocious than any green hulk seen before at least by the characters in the book including Bruce) for at least a few issues. I had the one with him ripping the roof off some kind of Hulkbusters attack plane on the cover and the one where he befriends the crazy mutated lizard people in the desert. From that specific run. Being as old as I am 41 in 3 weeks I have or used to have a ton of those 80s early 90s hulk comics. Another from that era that comes to mind is the Countdown arc. Love them all.
