As
the summer’s biggest comic book event, World War Hulk, rages
on, acclaimed writer behind it now turns his attentions to what could
have been in What If? Planet Hulk. From Planet Hulk and World War
Hulk author Greg Pak, artists Leonard Kirk, Rafa Sandoval and Fred
Hembeck, comes this special extra-sized one-shot showing just how the
year’s top selling event could have gone in three different paths!
First, what if the
Hulk had arrived at the intended destination of
the Illuminati? Could this peaceful planet have tamed the savage
Hulk? And then, what if Hulk died and his wife instead led the army
against Earth? Finally, the one page story you demanded: what if
Banner, not the Hulk, landed on Sakaar? That’s three stories, one
issue and a stunning cover by Planet Hulk artist Carlo
Pagulayan!
“If you thought Hulk was brutal in WWH, you’ve
seen nothing like Caiera’s revenge story,” said editor Mark
Paniccia. “The Illuminati is lucky she’s not the one who came out
of the stone ship. Iron Man will loose his head when he meets her
(literally). Plus there are a few other surprising tie-ins to the
current mythos. The other two stories are brilliant. Greg went
absolutely wild with these tales.”
That’s three different
outcomes for the Hulk straight from the man writing some of the most
exciting stories in the character’s history! Greg Pak and friends
bring you three stories that could—perhaps should—have been
featuring the Incredible Hulk as you’ve never seen him before! It’s
What If? Planet Hulk and once you’ve finished this special
extra-sized one shot, your jaw will be on the floor!
What
If? Planet Hulk (AUG072232) will be available in stores on October
24, 2007. If you are curious about your comic's value, upload your
