Hulk: Gray (Hulk: Gray #1-6) 
Hulk smashes!Yes, he does what he knows best, and that's smashing. And smashing he does a lot in this story. The story is captivating, deep and not overly long. A lot of very very nice scenes (as with the rabbit, or with betty in the cave) that Jeph Loeb is master of, where the Hulk is seen from a very different angle than the average comic shows, but still keeps the basic concept of the dumb brute that wants to be left in peace.The art is outstanding - the Hulk is displayed both as child that
Another Loeb/Sale "colour" book exploring events in the early days of a hero's "career", Hulk: Gray follows some of the same beats as Spider-Man: Blue and Daredevil Legends, Vol. 1: Yellow: a few winks, a touch of sadness, and a longing for those "simpler days".Daredevil Legends, Vol. 1: Yellow was, in my opinion, the best of the bunch.

Hmm, seems a mixed bag. Loeb/Sale continue their run on looking at classic heroes' origin stories. They succeed in making this story feel very nostalgic, vintage and old-timey. However, in this case, it doesn't seem to really work for me (maybe it's cause I'm only used to the character's more modern edge, like in the films), and I found this old-fashioned world to not really fit with the Hulk. The script is at times brilliant, at times aggravating. The story it set in Doc Samson's office, with

This is another reread for me. I haven't read this since it initially came out and I recall being a little disappointed with this one.After reading it again, I think it is equal to the others, at least in story. My interpretation of the "gray" is the ambiguity of whether the Hulk is good or bad and whether Bruce is good and Hulk is bad or vice versa.

*No spoilers*When I started really this comic, I had some really high expectations. I was enjoying the story right from the beginning. However, as I continued reading, I felt that it became kind of confusing, messy and never really climaxed for me, so to speak.Its somewhat of an origin story about the Hulk. It covers his first enemies, friends and love. But its quite confusing how it goes back and forth between one conversation where the story is being told and the actual story. I didnt like
