3.5 starsHulk fights a dinosaur!And that's my entire review, folks! Fine, not really.The premise is that TIME is broken. It's so broken, in fact, that no one other than Hulk could survive going into the time stream. So, S.H.I.E.L.D. uploads Banner's consciousness into a flying robot-thing (to act as Hulk's guide), and then tosses them both into the most affected areas in the time stream.I know what you're thinking... Dinosaur Battle = Jurassic Era Ha! That's what they want you to think!In real...
The Hulk punches a dinosaur in the Old West! Can it get any better than this? The 6 year old in me says no. People in the Marvel universe have mucked with time so much that time is breaking down. The Hulk is the only one strong enough to survive the time jumps and fix it. So he and banner's consciousness trapped in a floating robot flip through time to take out the chronarchists. I found this to be a lot of fun.
Knock Knock.Who’s there?Hi. It’s Dr. Banner. Can I come in?Knock Knock.Who’s there? Dr. Banner, it that you?Hulk not Banner. Hulk hate Banner. Hulk smash Banner. HULK SMASH DOOR IN!!! *Mark Waid continues his excellent run. Here, a group of Cromaluc…, Cronocul…,Crayolanopu…um, bad guys are messing with the time stream. The only one capable of jumping into the time stream and not coming out a dead half baby/half 70 year old would be the Hulk. Problem is Hulk isn’t very bright, it would be like ha...
***Green Theme Buddy Read! All Hulk for me!***I originally gave this volume five stars. And then I read Volume Four. I was being silly obviously. At any rate, this volume was still very fun to read, with more information into the interns, and more Hulk(s) all around.Time travel can be such an iffy topic in any form. Sometimes it's well done, and other times it falls to hell. This was straight up fun. The search for the Chronarchists and the battles that ensued were pure joy. And we finally saw H...
I had fun with this one. It took a bit to get coherent but ended up being damned enjoyable.
This was the worst volume I have read of Hulk.Like its time travel and it was bound to be bad but Waid makes a mess of this and ugh disgusting volume.It starts off cool with Hulk being given the mission to repair Time but when he finds Zarrko, the tomorrow man and some weird things going on, he travels to 1800s wild west and teams up with cowboys there to fight Chronarchists and also 6th century Knights of the roundtable for same old story and its a mess I kid you not.Then the weird thing with t...
So Hulk travels back in time to the Wild West where we fights dinosaurs. Really. See, this is the obligatory time travel book. The idea is that there are time traveling anarchists hopping through time, and the changes they make are, shall we say, sub-optimal. Which of course means that Hulk is the perfect person to send back into time, with Bruce Banner's consciousness installed in a floating robot that owes more than a little to Skeets. Because time travel totally isn't an overplayed plot devic...
All right! This was pretty fun, especially if you've got an attention span of a gnat.Or even if you're just a Hulkomaniac finding it hugely amusing to see the green thing FIX THE TIMESTREAM as it crumbles.Yeah. Hulk Fix.Woah.A lot of weirdos show up, or in point of fact, Hulk crashes a lot of weirdo's parties, getting transformed into many different versions of the Hulkster, from Gladiator to smart hulk to Mr. Fixit... oh yeah, it's all here, and flashing as fast as a strobe light.Like the prett...
Oh a time travel tale. So as nearly all time travel tales go...someone is messing with time! The consequences are massive, people are disappearing from existence itself! But wait there is hope Hulk can somehow punch history straight!So if it isn't obvious I'm not a time travel story fan. The reason being is the more complex the story becomes the less sense they tend to make. This was not an exception. Chronoanarchists are messing time up and they look like Darkseid. No worries Hulk punched stuff...
Ahh! I got tricked into reading ANOTHER time travel story! How did I not see that asshole from the Revolutionary War on the cover? I mean, he's behind Hulk and a bunch of...orange energy stuff. But still.The things I liked about this time travel narrative are these:1. A guy is basically like, "You assholes keep fucking around with time like it's no big deal, but it totally is, and now time is broken." I just like that SOMEONE is like, "Maybe there's a consequence to all this time traveling, you
This wasn't bad, but I doubt I'll remember much of it later on. The story is your standard time travel affair, with a twist that's quite obvious despite the complexity of the story structure, and I'm quite tired of people playing with the Hulk's origin moments - he's here to stay, we all know it, so don't tease us with the potential of there not being any more Hulk. The art's solid, if a little scratchy, but I'm a fan of both Scalera and Jacinto, so it all worked out well for me personally. this...
***Green Theme Buddy Read #3...for not one, but TWO HULKS! GREEN! Oh and a Green Dinosaur and Green Dragon!*** Indestructible Hulk SMASH Time is both the title and a full description of the events in Volume 3. In addition, it is time for Hulk to SMASH things...the thing(s) being Time itself.This is not as strong as the previous volumes in my opinion, and the second half of the book is bogged down by what I feel is bad art. It feels like it was drawn by someone who had too many Red Bulls after...
OK paint me into the jumpsuit, I'm in on this vertigo-inducing ride. If the timestream is finally broken, and Chronarchists are wilding through spacetime, fixing some events and removing others, then everything about the Marvel Universe is up for grabs - all the creaky, dusty history is subject to modernize.My god, is everyone complaining about the "quality" of this collection vs. previous trades because Waid is having *fun* with a character who's been written for decades as morose, depressed, i...
Get out the headache medicine, it’s another Marvel time travel story!That’s right, as if Marvel didn’t have enough time-travel crap going on after the Age of Ultron arc, where Wolverine “tore” time, and All-New X-Men, which stars the X-Men of the past interacting with the X-Men of the present, Hulk’s getting in on the action too! Some Chronarchists (time terrorists who look like Darkseid cosplayers) and Zarrko, the Tomorrow Man, are futzing with time to make it so that they’re supreme rulers in
I was pretty leery after the disappointments of the previous volume, but Waid's writing and some pretty cool splash pages kept me just engaged enough to not decry this "chronanarchist" arc a, cough, total waste of time. Still, I'll love to see a little less pseudo-science and a lot more incredible feats of strength in my Hulk books. But then I'm old school like that.
Going into this, I had no prior experience with the Indestructible Hulk series. I mean, I know who the Hulk is. Been a comics reader since the mid 70's after all. I just wasn't familiar with this particular series, and the local bargain outlet didn't have volumes one and two in their chaotically organized graphic novel section. Still, I wouldn't be much of a comics fan if I couldn't pick up a random issue and get up to speed relatively quickly …In this series, Bruce Banner is working for SHIELD....
The time travel bits with the marvel guest stars were fun, but all the conspiracy stuff feels forced and gets boring after awhile.Waid has some good ideas, but it never feels like he has a handle on the Hulk. I'd like to blame it on marvel editorial, or the fact that the Hulk kept getting dragged into crossovers, but Waid just seems to be jumping from adventure to adventure and there's little time spent on the supporting cast or fleshing out the main idea of Banner/Hulk working for SHIELD.Lots o...
More time hopping! lots of fight scenes, Dinosaurs and some of DC comics favorite western heroes .
I guess I'm just not a big fan of the Hulk as a solo character. He's great in a team, and I do like Banner, but finding situations to challenge the Hulk physically isn't easy, and when you take Hulk in a higher concept time travel story like this one, it doesn't feel true to the character...
The Hulk, a.k.a. Dr. Robert Bruce Banner, has gone through multiple status quo changes over the years. Indeed, the fluid nature of just how smart the Hulk is, when changes happen, and the relationship between Banner and his (usually) green alter ego has become a major sub-theme of the character over the years. At the time of this series, the Hulk is low-IQ and high on the anger quotient. Dr. Banner is mostly reconciled to this, but also wants his legacy to be more than just a big green monster t...
