Marvel Comics: Donny Cates shows even the Hulk has a Hulk

Writer Donny Cates shows that the Hulk can be even scarier and that he’s on a crash course against the God of Thunder Thor.

Donny Cates is a premier comic book writer. You may know him from his iconic run of Venom and later in King in Black. Cates had the near-impossible job of filling in after Al Ewing’s run of Immortal Hulk. If anyone can do it, it’s Donny Cates. Cates follows it up perfectly. We know that the Jade Giant is a threat, but, here’s where we learn that Bruce Banner is just as bad.

Bruce Banner turned the monster into a starship that controls the Hulk’s rage with a gear shift. The gears go from 1 to 10. As each level goes up, Hulk sees someone he either hates or is scared of. The more he hates what he sees, the stronger he gets.

In the most recent issue, we see something even more terrifying than any interaction of the Jade Giant. He became a 30-foot-tall black titan that shoots beams out of his eyes. Or, as it was described in the comic, he became a Hulk of himself.

Eventually, Bruce Banner regained control of the situation and brought the Hulk down to a one again. The next thing to do was leave this Earth in his starship. Before that could happen, Hulk looked up and saw a familiar weapon. It’s Thor’s hammer coming right at his face. Of course, neither personalities are happy with this sight.

Hulk Vs. Thor: Banner of War

Notice that the title is Banner and not his monster side. This shows that Bruce Banner is going to be the one in charge of this battle with Thor.

Every time these two have fought, the ground literally shakes. The Hulk just fought a hulked-out version of Spider-Man and monstrous and creepy versions of abomination. That was just the warm-up act. He and Thor could end up having the battle of the year.
