Marvel Adventures: Super Heroes V2 #11
Marvel Comics (April 2011)
WRITER: Paul Tobin PENCILER: Ronan Cliquet INKER: Amilton Santos COLORS: Sotocolor LETTERER: Dave Sharpe PRODUCTION: Damien Lucchese COVER: Ricardo Tercio ASSISTANT EDITOR: John Denning EDITORS: Michael Horwitz & Bill Roseman
When the Hulk finds something he doesn’t understand, he goes to the Thing for help, who in turn calls Sue. The trio end up protecting a Celestial from the Leader while Captain America makes a new friend (as usual, at Nova’s expense).
What they got right: I do like a happy Hulk and he gets a decent happy ending here. We all need friends, after all. The story as a whole is a good one, and I really liked the scenes with Hulk and the Thing talking instead of the usual slugfest the two usually have. It’s a change of pace if anything.
What they got wrong: Tobin still hates to use Bruce Banner even in his first Hulk usage in years, Nova is still getting the short end of the dating stick whenever Steve, Thor, or tony are around, and while I wouldn’t call the art bad, it wasn’t my “thing”. (No pun intended.)
Recommendation: I really enjoyed this story and would recommend it to anyone who would like to see how Ben and Hulk would get along outside of bashing each others brains in.
I think the joke is obvious.
