Welp… this book is now tied with Flash as the most beautifully drawn and entertaining ongoing superhero comic. I hadn’t read a single issue of a Hulk comic post Planet Hulk that I enjoyed at any level besides some of the great artists Loeb somehow managed to get to draw his awful nonsense. But then along came this team of Parker and Hardman and gave the book a complete 180. Jeff Parker’s mile a minute, old school superhero comic sensibilities move these stories along briskly and both the penciling and inking here (as with in the previous two issues) are nothing short of phenomenal. There is simply no superhero book on the stands, other than perhaps Flash, which is more fun to read due to the work of the artist. Like Flash, this seems to be an example in which the writer brilliantly serves up panels which are tailor made for the strengths of his art team. May not be the most layered story out there, but this book has the manic energy of some of the best, classic runs from days gone by.

  1. Good stuff! Aren’t the colors amazing? 

  2. Yes, the colors are amazing—to say the very least! This is the type of book that makes most of the other superhero books on my pull list look uninspired by comparison.

  3. I feel like Gabriel Hardman is simply working on another level that most artists ever achieve.  I can’t wait to continue watching his career grow.

     

    Best in the world?  Maybe.
