Comic Book: Incredible Hulk (1999 series)

What This Book is About:
This Hulk volume was commenced by John Byrne (writer) and Ron Garney (artist). Byrne disappointed, and Marvel showed him the red card. But the 100+ issue volume continued thanks to the talents of Paul Jenkins, Bruce Jones, John Romita Jr., Mike Deodato Jr. and Greg Pak among others. This book was initially called "Hulk". It changed to "The Incredible Hulk" in issue #12. It finally "ended" in #112 when the book changed name and main character in #113 to "The Incredible Hercules".
