"HULK SMASH!"

Or maybe for a change, we'll reach for more images than text. Two series, but it's hard to imagine one without the other. In my small comic book collection, this is probably one of the better Hulk comics, condensed to what we expect from him.

Hulk, whose powers often went beyond limits and whose uncontrollable fury affected all the other heroes, is sent into space by the Illuminati.
Landing on Sakaar, a bit of "Gladiator," a bit of true friendship, a bit of romance... and without spoiling it, the events of Planet Hulk are a direct prelude to World War Hulk, but I'll leave that story up to you.

Now let's take a look at how the online community views this story – there's no shortage of enthusiastic opinions there either.

I warn you: I am completely biased when it comes to the Hulk, because I have a huge sympathy for him.
I highly recommend picking up "Planet Hulk" and "Hulk War." These stories show the green warrior in extreme situations and allow us to see him from a completely different perspective. I really appreciate that the Hulk and Banner relationship isn't reduced to a constant battle for control—instead, they manage to form a surprisingly harmonious duo. These two stories are among the reasons why the Hulk remains such a fascinating and unique character for me.

"Planet Hulk" captivated me from the very first page. Great pacing, plenty of emotion, and a truly powerful finale. "Hulk War" only adds to the fire.
