otoboke's The Incredible Hulk #2 - The Terror of the Toad Men review

The Terror of the Toad Men!

Despite being an issue often mocked by fans, I found this one to be an improvement over issue 1.

It’s ridiculous really, but somehow Lee pulls it off to be a decent issue despite its obtuse plotting.

The Toad Men are nearly exactly the same as the Skrulls from Fantastic Four #2, seen just a few issues ago, so we already have some lame plot recycling coming from Marvel. It was probably the case that launching both Fantastic Four and Incredible Hulk as new comics with new characters within a few months of each other wasn't that great of an idea, as t...
