I've given this some thought. I looked around the internet to see what other people thought as well. Here's my list with some explaining:

*World War Hulk Prologue: World Breaker

*Incredible Hulk (1999-2008) - #106

then

*Daily Bugle (2006-Present) - #9

Daily Bugle announces upcoming WWH, Iron Man, etc.

*Iron Man (2005-Present) - #19

this is the battle with Iron Man

*Iron Man (2005-Present) - #20

follows immediately after battle with Iron Man

*World War Hulk: Front Line - #1

we see Hulk battling Iron Man at the end of this book without a

conclusion

*World War Hulk - #1

we witness the conclusion to the Iron Man battle

*Irredeemable Ant-Man (2006-Present) - #10

Ant-Man is in the Hulk during the Iron Man battle

*Incredible Hulk (1999-2008) - #107

we see the Iron Man battle then Hulk beats up Hercules

*Incredible Hulk (1999-2008) - #108

Hulk has just finished punching on Hercules

*Ghost Rider (2006-Present) - #12

Ghost Rider comes face to face with the Hulk. Must be post

Iron Man Battle

*Ghost Rider (2006-Present) - #13

the face off between Ghost Rider and the Hulk continues

*Heroes for Hire (2006-Present) - #11

the Hulk's forces have landed on Earth

*Heroes for Hire (2006-Present) - #12

Heroes for Hire get on Hulk's space ship

*Heroes for Hire (2006-Present) - #13

Heroes for Hire are prisoners on Hulk's space ship

*World War Hulk: X-Men - #1

Hulk goes after Xavier. This could go before Ghost Rider.

Doesn't really matter.

*World War Hulk: X-Men - #2

Hulk continues his questioning of Xavier.

*World War Hulk: X-Men - #3

Hulk demolishes all X-Men and leaves.

*World War Hulk: Gamma Corps - #1

This could go most anywhere. It's an introduction to the

Gamma Corps

*World War Hulk: Gamma Corps - #2

Origins of Gamma Corps members.

*World War Hulk: Gamma Corps - #3

No time reference for this one. hulk battles Gamma Corps and gets

his neck snapped. Must be before arena.

*World War Hulk: Gamma Corps - #4

Hulk recovers from his broken neck. Beats Gamma Corps and

heads out (for Avengers battle?)

*World War Hulk - #2

Battle against She-Hulk and the Avengers then destroys the

Fantastic Four

*Avengers: The Initiative - #4

Hulk has already beat up Samson and the rest

*Incredible Hulk (1999-2008) - #109

Hulk tells Renegades to go away and starts building arena

*World War Hulk: Front Line -#2

Hulk's forces are on Earth and the 24 hours is just about up

*World War Hulk: Front Line -#3

Hulk has already defeated the FF

*Incredible Hulk (1999-2008) - #110

Hulk hasn't begun his arena battles.

*Heroes for Hire (2006-Present) - #14

Heroes meet in arena. It is empty; must be before arena battles.

*Heroes for Hire (2006-Present) - #15

This continues immediately after 14.

*Avengers: The Initiative - #5

Hulk is obviously not busy with arena battles. He beats up Avengers

Shadow Initiative.

*World War Hulk - #3

Hulk finishes arena. Dr Strange confronts him and gets his hands

crushed. Dr Strange summons Zom.

*World War Hulk - #4

Hulk defeats Dr Strange/Zom. Arena battles begin. Sentry takes

flight.

*World War Hulk: Front Line -#4

We see some arena battles from crowd perspective.

*Marvel Spotlight: World War Hulk

Good time to have a Spotlight.

*World War Hulk: Gamma Files

May as well think about different Gamma characters at this point.

*Punisher: War Journal (2007-Present) #12

Side story. Punisher fights aliens and evacuates civilians from New

York.

*World War Hulk: Front Line - #5

We see Sentry enter the scene.

*World War Hulk - #5

Battle between Sentry and Hulk and conclusion to WWH.

*Incredible Hulk (1999-2008) - #111

Kind of a recap. We see the battle between Dr Strange/Zom and

Hulk as well as the battles between Hulk and Sentry. Then the

conclusion. I put this after WWH5 even though it says it is

before - otherwise it's kind of a spoiler!

*World War Hulk: Front Line -#6

Another recap from a different perspective. Also we see aftermath.

Now we are in the Aftersmash:

*What If? Planet Hulk

I put this in Aftersmash because it felt right.

*World War Hulk Aftersmash

Follows immediately soon after WWH #5.

*Incredible Hulk (1999-2008) - #112

Follows sometime soon after WWH #5.

*Incredible Hercules (2008-Present) - #113

These can just keep going in order...

*Incredible Hercules (2008-Present) - #114

Probably goes right to 115 (I just don't have that yet...)

*World War Hulk Aftersmash: Damage Control - #1

This could be read right after Aftersmash (or while your reading

Incredible Hercules.)

*World War Hulk Aftersmash: Damage Control - #2

These can just keep going in order...

*World War Hulk Aftersmash: Warbound - #1

This could be read right after Aftersmash (or while your reading

Incredible Hercules and Damage Control.)

World War Hulk Aftersmash: Warbound - #2

Follows immediately after #1.

*World War Hulk Aftersmash: Warbound - #3

These can just keep going in order probably right onto #4 (I just

don't have that issue yet...)

All this being said, I'm totally open to suggestions and/or comments.

Hulk is strongest one there is!!!
