The Story

The Infernal Hulk #6 might be the most impactful and the most powerful of the run so far, and the tone is set immediately by Phillip Kennedy Johnson. Eldest, who has used Hulk’s body as a vessel, is a disaster-causing menace that has no plans on stopping. This is very clear, and now the government and Earth’s mightiest heroes have had to devise a plan to try to take out The Infernal Hulk once and for all. Even Iron Man had to create a new suit called the Hellbuster for this plan, but will it be enough?

The Infernal Hulk always proves to be one step ahead, even before the smartest minds in the world. I didn’t think this run could raise the energy even more than it has in the past issues, but here we are. Phillip Kennedy Johnson knows exactly how to keep an audience captivated and knows how to write a powerful story that can speak for itself.

The Art

The artwork of The Infernal Hulk #6 is simply magnificent. Adam Gorham, Matthew Wilson, and Travis Lanham give so much to the comic, bringing the energy and emotions to a whole new level. Gorham provides gorgeous details of The Living City and all that lives there. Along with a battle between Iron Man and Eldest that’s enough to change the world to its core, it’s accompanied by drawings that put you right into the action.

Matthew Wilson brings so much vibrancy to the comic that each page is more stunning than the last. Wilson makes a great focal point of the bright green in the middle of Eldest that shows brightly throughout the fight, which makes the character practically pop off the page. Travis Lanham nails the calm intensity of the voice of Eldest, which sent a shiver up the spine during the battle of the ages between Eldest and Iron Man.

Final Thoughts

The Infernal Hulk gets better and better with every issue, and this comic is proof of that. The only way to describe The Infernal Hulk #6 is all gas, no breaks.

Overall Grade – 10/10
