The Incredible...Herc?

I'm glad Hercules was there for Hulk but I have to admit I've never really been a fan.  He's always seemed a little...boring.  Sure he likes to fight and party but there's just something about him.  Maybe it's because Marvel has always given more attention to the Norse Gods over the Greek Gods.  We'll see if they really can make a Herc fan out of me.

That’s right True Believers! After the earth-shattering—literally!—events of World War Hulk, the jade giant is seemingly no more and new heroes must rise up in Incredible Hulk #112! Written by World War Hulk architect Greg Pak and acclaimed author Fred Van Lente, and featuring the art of rising star Khoi Pham, this is the comic that everyone’s already buzzing about! When confronted by S.H.I.E.L.D., Hercules and Amadeus Cho are faced with quite possibly the toughest decisions of their lives and…well, let’s just say that their final choice will leave your jaw on the floor! As Hercules’ past, present and future collide, Pak, Van Lente and Pham set Incredible Hulk on a path so powerful, so controversial that the entire series must be renamed Incredible Hercules as of issue #113!

"Irresponsible Greek god, incorrigible teen genius, massive levels of wanton destruction, twisty plotting, snappy dialogue, unexpected emotion, and gorgeous art by the inestimable Khoi Pham," smiled Pak. "What's not to love?"

"We've got Herc fighting his way through S.H.I.E.L.D.-occupied territory in the present but are constantly flashing back to Ray Harryhausen-style mythic battles in ancient Greece, all beautifully rendered by Khoi Pham,” gushed Van Lente. “That juxtaposition between classic legends and the right-here, right-now is what's made this series such a joy for me to co-write -- and, we hope, that's why people will love reading it, too."

The book that Wizard called the “best ongoing series of 2007” takes its most dramatic turn yet, as Incredible Hulk #112 sets Hercules & Amadeus Cho on a path from which there is no return! If you thought you knew what to expect from Herc, think again folks—this is the issue that’ll make you a Hercules fan for life!
