Comic wise - I'm re-reading Identity Crisis, and am balls deep in World War Hulk, Silver Surfer Requiem, Thunderbolts and The Boys.
I'm really liking The Losers and Fables at the moment too.
Mmm not bad, theres hope for you yet _________________
Got a truck load of comics from Sarah for my bday So i've started piling through those.
Finished reading Punisher: Born yesterday, now the question I have about that is, is this voice that seems to be talking to Frank a sure sign of Multiple Personality Disorder or some sort of outside influence that can shape events? _________________ Pro Massacre Boy!
Marvel What If? - Event Horizon
House of M - Wolverine
And I'm now on The Dark Knight Returns which so far is fantastic _________________ Pro Massacre Boy!
At the moment, my main read has to be anything World War Hulk related.
It's good to read a nice, old-fashioned, Hulk Smash The Marvel Universe comic without getting warpped up in the politics that surround it. As much as I enjoyed Civil War, I think I can honestly say I'm enjoying World War Hulk more! _________________ With Great Power, Comes Great... Potential to ROB BANKS!!! HAHAH!

I wasn't sure if I liked the place they were taking it with #3 as they're about to turn Hulk into the Monster he's always professed he isn't (well kinda). Seems an odd curve to throw in seeing as the beginning of the story was making the Hulk a hugely sympathetic character, to change the audience view of him as sharply as I think they're looking for could be a potentially bad idea. _________________ Pro Massacre Boy!
I've not read the third issue yet so it is difficult for me to comment but...
It was perhaps only ever going to be a matter of time before Hulk began regressing more toward his atypical characterisation as a 'monster' (I'm using the term loosely).
Consider the phrase 'The madder Hulk gets, the stronger Hulk gets' for a moment; and then consider the level of resistance aimed toward the Hulk since his arrival on Earth. Iron Man. The Avengers. The Fantastic Four. General 'Thunderbolt' Ross. All they're really doing is making Hulk angrier and angrier - all he really wants is justice for those who died on Sakaar (and his dead wife, natch). The more angrier he becomes, the less 'in control' he becomes. He's no longer controlling his rage as well as he could at, say the beginning of WWH and perhaps therefore the 'inner beast' is starting to take over.
Let's also not forget that Hulk has never been this angry before.
Of course, I could very easily be talking a large pile of poo here; like I say, I've not read the issue so... _________________ With Great Power, Comes Great... Potential to ROB BANKS!!! HAHAH! THAT'S HOW TO BEAT THE RECESSION!!!
