Hulk #20 Review by Julio Molina-Muscara (February 25, 2010)

I first flipped through this comic without reading it, and was wowed by Ed McGuinness art; he draws better each month. But then I read the comic and... was gladly pleased by Jeph Loeb's script. Although I think how Red Ghost was able to kidnap both Beast and Black Panther amongst the X-Men and Red Hulk was a bit simplistic, not very logical, the rest sounds pretty solid, and entertaining to me. So I gave this comic a 4.

Gwen Stacy, beauty queen of Standard High School, was Peter Parker's (alias Spider-Man) first great love.

Hulk #20 Synopsis by Julio Molina-Muscara

The Intelligencia, ran mainly by the Leader and M.O.D.O.K., have captured Doctor Doom and Mr. Fantastic, two of the eight smartest man, and send the Red Ghost to Africa to capture two more: Henry McCoy A.K.A the Beast, and T'Challa, the Black Panther. Bruce Banner anticipates this move, and sends the Red Hulk to prevent it.

... But the carmine-skin monster fails, in part because he's attacked by the X-Men Cyclops, Storm, Angel and Iceman, considering him as the enemy; and secondly, because the Red Ghost knocks him out by grabbing his heart after "Rulk" killed his gorilla Mikhlo.

Back at the Intelligencia headquarters, the Leader offers the grievous Red Ghost another gorilla, and explains that not killing the Red Hulk is part of the plan.

Synopsis / Summary / Plot

By Julio Molina-Muscara

Hulk, Red Hulk and Blue Hulk go out camping, and when rain approaches, Hulk decides not to read the instructions on how to put the tent together, and bosses the other two on how to do it. Of course they do it all wrong, but when rain falls, the Red Hulk and Blue Hulk use the instructions as cover while the Hulk exclaims he doesn't like camping.
