Anyone else but me thought this issue (Hulk Gamma) was awesome? (with Blue Hulk // Rick Jones acting as Bruce Banner's bodyguard and telling the Avengers to "back off" and let Bruce say a few words?)
I think Marvel is doing really cool things these days. I'm starting to understand why I've always been more of a Marvel guy than a DC guy: the most powerful guy in DC universe (Superman) is perfect, loved by all; the most powerful guy in Marvel universe (Hulk) is hated by all the "beautiful, perfect" hero leagues... (yet without Hulk, all the main Marvel heroes would have died when Molecule Man materialized a mountain above their heads during the Secret Wars, for instance... and countless other rescues by Hulk)
Yes, the Hulk is utter destruction, but only when people make him angry. You'd think they'd have learned by now: give big green dude a wide berth and he goes back to Banner form after taking a few relaxing breaths... (hey, maybe one of the "heroes" should come up with a "relaxing scents" gun or "yoga pose" projector or "new age music" loudspeaker...)

Funny thing is, Persuasion should be able to 'tame' the hulk easily.
(Blue hulk? What Rick Jones is a giant smurf?)
I hate to be a nay sayer about the cool things Marvel is doing, but Red Hulk. That's all that needs to be said.

I blame political correctness.
Queasiada: We need more DIVERSITY in comics! Take the Hulk for example.
Loeb: Diversity, diversity... I know! Rainbow Hulks!

Rainbow Hulks and Rainbow Lanterns are both ludicrous concepts. I guess the difference is in the execution.
That said, Hulk #18 was -swallows nervously- quite enjoyable. Green Lantern #49, not at all.
