So after everything he went through in his life, “that” was what made Bruce’s heart finally go “I’m out. Deuces”.
Man I've seen you commenting on comicpop's videos forever, good to see that comicpop has loyal fans
He was 200 not young anymore
Hi How's the mustache
@@nickypool415 Yo! Pretty good, thank you for asking!
@@Just_Some_Guy_with_a_Mustache yay!😁
I never took Hulk feeling “cold” as him dying. I took it as Hulk realizing that he was finally alone, and what that actually meant in a dead world with no one, and almost immediately regretting it.
“Hulk is ONLY one there is…”
That’s one hell of an ending line.
I adore the ending of Hulk: The End because it fits so perfectly. Hulk gets what he wants, Banner is gone and Hulk is all there is and his final line I think is a realization of how what he wanted would never be satisfying. Hulks anger and hatred led Hulk to be the only thing left on a dead planet, now without even someone to hate.
He can hated cockroachs
@@daraghokane4236 Now see, THAT'S relatable.
@@Hulkzilla0 cockroaches would actually die before humans during a nuclear Armageddon there not invincible they don't have more resistance to radiation then people. Why does media think they will be around always after the sun explodes
Peter David took the Hulk to his logical conclusion: he is indeed the strongest one there is in this story, and it's heartbreaking.
I like how they viewed the last line “Hulk feels cold” I always viewed that as hulk wasn’t dying he just finally got what he wanted but never realized that he’s never ACTUALLY been alone because Bruce has always been there. Which to me adds the implication of further torture due to hulk realizing that he doesn’t actually want to be alone and that alone is….cold
Edit: I wrote this prior to finishing the episode. They got to the same conclusion 😂
"The day The Watcher turned his back." is a really kickass line
This is BY FAR the best Marvel End issue. It being collected with Future Imperfect is so awesome and the ending is fantastic.
I mean punisher the end I think is on the same level
Leave it to Peter David to write something that just yanks your heart out. Always giddy to see a Hulk video from you guys!
For Me, The Hulk has as much pathos and depth as Batman does, and Peter David absolutely gets that and writes some of the characters best stories
I'm pretty sure this was the first hulk book i ever read as a kid and needless to say it scarred the shit out of me. I didn't realize it wasn't necessarily the canon ending and i was so heartbroken this is how it ends for heroes. I think i read this and one more day in the same year. What a wild ride for an 8 year old.
Man, that must have sucked for you. Sorry you had to experience such a dark story at such a young age 😅👍
Hulk: I need to stay mad. Bird, insult me!
Bird: You can't jump to Europe.
Hulk: How dare!
It’s fitting for Peter David to write the end of Hulk, as his run is the definitive take on the character
At least one of. Immortal Hulk, while cliche to say this, is another definitive run in my eyes. Those by far are my favorite Hulk writers.
@@CharZy-y8v To be fair, I feel like the sheer length and breadth of David’s run on Hulk puts him ahead of Ewing (since Immortal only ran for 50 issues), plus the fact that a lot of what Ewing did in Immortal drew inspiration from the David run anyway, but even then, it’s still _really goddamn close._
@@halfmettlealchemist8076 You make a good point, I just feel that both writers have a good grasp on the universe and a unique voice for the Hulk. Tbh I like both runs equally.
@@CharZy-y8v Same here!
What about Greg Pak's run?
The team of Dale Keown and Peter David is why I got into comics. The art made me pick up a comic (Hulk) at the store and for years it was the main title I read. The only one I read monthly.
The Hulk finally got what he wanted, was to be alone. Saying that he felt cold really hit hard for me.
This was the book were I learned the extent of Hulk's healing factor. I thought this was nuts, until Immortal Hulk upped it to an 11.
I always saw Hulk wanting to be left alone because he doesn’t want people to get hurt because of him. But there’s probably hundreds of examples of classic stories of him jumping around and some nice person actually likes them and they get along and eventually some type of force rather be the military, the leader, etc. trying to use him for evil and that person is either hurt or killed. Hulk fights the bad guys and leaves wanting to be alone again so no else can get hurt.
That pretty much the end of Peter David's run and the start of the next run is that both Bruce and the hulk realize that no matter how well things are going, something always completely ruins it.
So what we’ve learned is that Maestro just walks in and goes “behold my stuff”
If will never not be hilarious when they guess the plot. I love it.
Next you guys should do Fantastic Four: The End. That’s my favorite of the End stories, really embodies the utopian spirit of the FF, and is just really nice.
I think Hulk saying he feels cold is actually more tragic than him dying. He says it as it pans to emptiness. I think him saying that is his realization of what he just lost.
Hulk and Banner hated eachother but they were all the other had left. Hulk felt like he would be free, that banner going away would make life so much better. With his death though hulk realized that there was no freedom, all he feels is cold and alone.
Peter David deserves his legendary status. I love every story he’s done with the hulk and it’s always a great episode from you guys to cover his stories.
This is definitely one of the best Hulk stories for sure.
Wow Ethan had a really good take at the end of the video, good work you guys
Also I would love to see Straczynski write the end of Spiderman. That Happy Birthday arc knocks it out of the park!!!
I love Peter David's entire Hulk & Maestro stories. Some of his Spidey 2099 too. It's about time that I finally read his X-Factor stuff, looks like a whole ton of fun!!
What a solid episode, this reminds me of Thanos's Quest, hope they get it to one of these days.
The credits over the exit riffing is a great touch.
Thanks for another great Hulk episode!
Oh, God. You would think we would save the bleak ones for Hallween month, but guess The End can get ya any time.
It's a metaphor for life
Its August, the start of school for many, and that's plenty horrifying for many folks
This comic is so good. Just a moody peice and that last section of the comic is just heart wrenching. Also, Love Ethan going in a monolog and hitting the nail on the head with that ending. Awesome episode
I like how they almost immediately came up with the ending of the book, lol
"It’s also This Bird: The End"
XD
I wish I was so quick witted.
Since my previous comment was more for algorithm and before watching, I have to say, sal's "where does a dream go when you wake up" is one if the most hilarious recurring lines in relation to comic lore 😂😅
1:07 You know...... say what you want about Garth Ennis. The guy was such a troll at Marvel that you can't help but admire the hubris.
I writing this preemptively because I don’t have internet write now because I just moved to a new apartment in Japan. I had to go to the Aeon Mall and use Wi-Fi there to download this episode to my iPad. Thanks for being awesome guys. This is my favorite show on UA-cam.
This is the only channel I've watched for the past couple weeks. Such a treasure trove. I feel like I've been watching for years
I love the deeper discussion you all get into at the end here. The questions that the subtle/ambiguous last image allows. As someone who hasn't read the comic, this feels like ambiguity done right. Where it might be any/all of these things, and the not knowing invites you to spend more time invested in the story.
I'm actually rather mixed on Peter David's Hulk work as I've never really liked Professor Hulk (who takes up the bulk of his run) because I think he takes away from the inherit tragedy/struggle of the character. However, when David hit, he *really* hit; this particular story being his very best in my opinion.
I absolutely love the story. And it's one of the best stories for the Hawkeye ever read. Of course it would be Peter David to write
Lol.....hulk not Hawkeye
The end was one of my favorite stories from Peter David’s run. Hope we see aspects of it or future imperfect in the MCU
I remember looking at the story a few years ago and this is great this brings up some interesting questions and pretty sad but bittersweet ending for Bruce Banner, a great story for Hulk and Bird: the end
Best channel on UA-cam keep it up guys and lots of love!
Spiderman had that weird 100th anniversary issue with Kingpin bonding with Symbiote. I always thought that was supposed to be The End story for him but it wasn't. It was something
You know if it is a Peter David Hulk story it will be good. Get well Peter!
Having this episode come out the same day Marvel announced a sequel to Spider-Man Reign is just perfect.
This was actually my first Hulk story. Always glad to see something familiar on the couch.
I love episodes of back issues that bring out genuine analysis from everyone on the couch. This was a super fan watch!
Its funny i have been having a pretty rough time with my mental health issues, i have diagnosed clinical depresion, anxietydisorder and panic attacks... this almost hit a little to close, still it was great to hear you guys talk about it at the end, it almost felt like you guys were talking to me. I have been a fan for years, even tho youtube unsuscribed me once 😢. But it almost feel like this was the back issues i needed... and god it was hulk jajaja 😅
"He misses birds singing"
That bird is singing a durge
Hulk the end is such a tragic story and very sad and depressing at least in my opinion.
Please do The Punisher The End , we need a fun book on the show.😁
While I wouldn't call Punisher: The End a 'fun' story, I agree I hope we get that on BI sometime.
I'd say a 'fun' End book would be Fantastic Four: The End, that one makes lots of references to continuity and at least ends on a happy note.
I was thinking about this last month, it's heartbreaking and a beautiful end to the Banner character.
I always saw Hulk's last lines in this book as him realizing that being alone isn't what he really wants and him finally being alone without even Banner leaves him feeling nothing but cold and lonely
My reading on the Hulk is that Hulk doesn't actually want to be alone. he doesn't really hate Banner. He just doesn't want to submit himself to rejection or loss or emotional vulnerability. He doesn't want to be hurt. The big guy actually cares for Bruce Banner, its why hulk is always stopping bruce from death. And so hulk feeling cold at the end is him realising that he truly is alone now, and it sinking in what it means for that to be the case. Hulk got everything what he said he wanted at the cost of everything. It is hollow and unsatisfying.
I now NEED a This Bird The End lmao just a bird slowly dying or radiation poisoning and the inner dialog like "oh shit, is that the hulk?"
Future imperfect seems more like a collection while red skulls seems more like trophies.
I now want a Hulk book that is like those crank movies, in which he has to keep his heart rate up to stay hulk forever or he will die
That's a comic run idea hulk has to stay angry and pumped
Ethan with the deep questions 41:17 - really gr8 episode again
Never clicked on anything so fast! I LOVE the Hulk, he’s so under appreciated. Love when you guys give us your take on him! One of my fave hulk runs; please do more of him
If Bruce survived I think Jennifer would too. She remains She-Hulk willingly & has control of it. Got to love how the alien races collectively wanna make sure Earth is human free.
Dan Slott did kinda do a Spider-Man: The End recently in everything but name. It's pretty fun. And for everyone going on how Slott hates MJ, this story kinda shows a good depiction of their relationship and marriage.
Oh really? What the name of it?
@@doomguydemonkiller the story is called Spider-Man vs. His Sinister 60th. It's a short story in that weird "amazing fantasy #1000" one shot comic that came out like last year. It's written by Slott, and illustrated by Jim Cheung. It's only 10 pages long or so, but some really good stuff packed into each one.
@@dn22pkkdd476 awesome! Thanks for responding, appreciate it 🙏
That was pretty interesting. The only hulk I've ever read was the immortal hulk. Thanks for that introduction on back issues a while back.
One of the three chinese curses "May you get everything you ever wanted", is in my opinion the worst one.
The Hulk finally being alone, finally being the strongest there is, finally being free from anger and hatred shows him how shallow and empty he is without Banner and the rest of humanity.
And it's a cool comparison to Planet/ World War Hulk. That's the one who got everything he never knew he wanted and lost it.
10:43 - Technically, Frank Millar did that with Captain Marvel in Dark Knight Strikes Again.
Wow Hulk Finally got what he wants and it Bittersweet all he wants was to be Excepted if not to be left alone and now in this continuity he the last living thing on earth fight giant mutated bugs a life of self inflicted suffering for the Strongest One there is makes me hope the hulk can finally find peace as Bruce did
Please could you do:
Cap: Winter Soldier,
Ironman: Extremis, or
Thor: God Butcher
Great starting points for each character aswell as some of their best stories.
I can not think of a bit
Except writing this
A haiku for comic pop
Perfection
i read this in a library as a five year old in las vegas. even then, it shook me to read a story that was so lonely and empty
I'd like to imagine that when the Hulk finally did die in this story he saw Banner again, and he welcomed him with open arms
I love last stand Spider-man! Now I want that Spider-man The End series!
Thanks to Back Issues whenever the galactic council is mentioned I think of the horse aliens. They were probably sad when Banner died.
"The whole, duality of man...the Jung thing, sir." 😊
The last line of this book always makes me laugh like Nelson HAHA 🤣
I’m so happy you did this book, I remember hearing about it when I was a little kid, and its exactly as cool as I thought it would be
Imo the prefect capstone to the hulk character as he was during that era , full of rage but also depressingly realistic outcome what happens when you go so far to be left alone by even yourself .
Damn just damn. Wasnt expecting such a sad ending
33:33 - ...and a new mother cries?
10:45 and now I have like 8 ideas for weird sci-fi stories of things in Antarctica that we don't know about because of never flying over...like weird sci-fi monster colonies
I think that final line is to say that Hulk feels cold because he is alone.
This was a great episode. I tried reading this comic when I was 18 and bounced off it for how grim it was. Sounds like younger me was missing out.
Loved this episode
And that one bird 😂
One of the more well thought out the end book, for sure!
A fitting end
Perfect timing :D I just finished rewatching the 52 episode in my Uber home, and now I can get nice and comfy for this!
Very happy to see an episode on this book and with such a great conversation on the ending.
I know X-Men: The End is massive and wierd but I love it so much, I remember reading it as it came out. Every issue is a twist and turn.
Hope you can cover it someday.
loved this episode. the discussion at the end was great. you three are some smart and articulate people. thank you.
The "The End" books are such a mixed bag, you really just get whatever the author had on their mind sometimes.
Just like in BATMAN ODYSSEY.
Yo! They got ending credits now?! WAAAAAAAH!
Post credit scene: Linkara dies
This may be the end of Hulk but it’s not the end of me asking for more Harbor Patrol.
Always enjoy when you review an Incredible Hulk comic book a she's one of my favorite characters!
Some of it probably had to do with being really young when the t.v. show was on for 4 seasons and watched it with my dad.
He's gone now and I'm not sure if he ever saw the MCU Hulk but I bet he would have liked it.
I like that this is very " I have No Mouth And I Must Scream".
Banner wants to die and Hulk is just like: " nah, bro. You're stuck here forever, bro.
Hey, check out that cool bug" until he's like " alright, I'm done. *Bleh.*"
The video was amazing, i hope you do more Hulk books in the future, it would be really cool to see you do his origins, the first issues like you did with Spider-Man. ✨️
Gotta do more of these love them
This is the first comic to ever make me feel bad for the hulk /Bruce
your vids always make my day
Please do the rest of Immortal Hulk
oh snap! I had a poster of this cover! This was the first Hulk comic I read.
I wonder if they used the Recorder who was heavily used in the Thor Silver Age. A different Rigellian Recorder of course cause Thor's died in the 90s.
