About this Collection

This collection kicks off the 2009 Hulk series by introducing the Red Hulk, a mysterious and powerful new gamma-fueled menace. Written by Jeph Loeb, the story follows General Thunderbolt Ross, Bruce Banner, and a host of Marvel heroes—including Thor, Iron Man, and Wolverine—as they confront this crimson behemoth whose identity and origins are shrouded in secrets. The volume sets the stage for a brutal, action-packed saga that redefines the Hulk's world.

In "Who Is the Hulk?", Jeph Loeb and Ed McGuinness kick off a gripping mystery with General Ross and Samson teaming up with SHIELD to investigate the murder of the Abomination—only to clash with the Winter Guard. As tensions rise, they turn to the imprisoned Bruce Banner for answers, setting the stage for a story that questions identity, loyalty, and what it truly means to be the Hulk. The issue’s bold art by McGuinness, with inks by Vines and colors by Keith, brings a sharp, intense energy to the proceedings, all capped by a striking cover by McGuinness and Vines.
