Hulk #6

The massive, scarlet-skinned Red Hulk dominates this 2008 cover, fist cocked and face twisted in fury as a sliver of green — hinting at a very familiar rival — appears at the edge of the frame. Ed McGuinness and Dexter Vines deliver a raw, kinetic composition that makes the Red Hulk feel genuinely unstoppable. With Jeph Loeb's "Blood Red" story inside, this issue captures the brute intensity that made this era of Hulk so compulsively readable.
