Marvel Masterworks: El Increíble Hulk #1
This Spanish-language hardcover collects the earliest adventures of the Incredible Hulk, reprinting the character's debut series from 1962. Part of Panini España's Marvel Masterworks line, it presents the foundational stories that established the Hulk's origin and his early encounters with the military and other threats. A must-have for fans of classic Silver Age Marvel storytelling and the Hulk's original, more brutish persona.
In "Hulk, Parte 1: La Llegada de Hulk," Bruce Banner remains trapped in the bunker he built to contain his alter ego, while Rick Jones, seeking shelter, is captured by the military and drawn into a dangerous experiment. Pressured into freeing the Hulk to test a new rocket prototype, Rick soon realizes the mission is a trap orchestrated by General Ross. As the Hulk awakens and attacks, Rick discovers an unexpected connection—but when exhaustion takes over, control slips away. With Jack Kirby’s dynamic art and a cover by Kirby himself, this classic tale of fear, instinct, and fragile alliance unfolds in the 2008 Marvel Masterworks: El Increíble Hulk #1.
In the tense moments before the Gamma Bomb detonates, Bruce Banner races into the restricted zone to save Rick Jones, ignoring orders and urging his assistant Igor Drenkov to halt the countdown—only for Drenkov to stand by as the blast consumes them both. Left in the aftermath, Banner awakens in the hospital, haunted by a terrifying transformation he can’t control.
In "Parte 2: Hulk Ataca," the Hulk, guided only by instinct and accompanied by Rick, stumbles toward Bruce's home in a state of disorientation. There, he confronts Igor, who’s attempting to steal the Gamma bomb formula, leading to a tense clash that tests the Hulk’s control and strength.
In "Parte 3: Buscando a Hulk," the military police raid Bruce Banner’s home, expecting to capture the Hulk—but instead they apprehend the spy Igor. As night falls, Bruce begins to piece together a troubling pattern: his transformations only happen when the sun goes down.
In "Parte 4: Presentando a... ¡La Gárgola!," Igor, trapped in his cell, reaches out to his superiors, setting off a chain of events that brings a disfigured Russian scientist—known only as La Gárgola—into the orbit of the Hulk. Driven by radiation scars and a mission to capture or kill the green giant, the Gárgola prepares to cross the Atlantic, turning the tide of the conflict with a new, relentless threat.
In "Parte 5: Hulk Triunfante," the Gárgola tracks down Hulk and Rick, overpowering them with a mind-control device. In the Soviet Union, Bruce Banner regains his human form and, seeing the Gárgola’s distorted face, offers to help restore his appearance. Once healed, the Gárgola repays the favor by providing a rocket to help Bruce escape.
In "El Terror de los Hombres Sapo, Parte 1: Presentando a... Los Hombres Sapo," alien amphibians descend on Earth with a singular mission: to retrieve their greatest scientist. Meanwhile, Bruce and Rick venture into a hidden underground cave, hoping to finally contain the Hulk each night.
In "Parte 2: ¡Prisioneros de los Hombres Sapo!," Bruce and Rick are taken aboard an alien spaceship by the Men Sapo, setting off a tense struggle for survival. When night falls, Banner’s transformation into the Hulk gives them a chance to seize control—but the arrival of General Ross’s forces brings a new kind of danger.
In "Parte 3: Bruce Banner, ¡Se Busca por Traidor!", Bruce Banner is discovered aboard a S.H.I.E.L.D. spacecraft linked to the alien S.H.A.P.O. race, throwing him into a dangerous web of suspicion. With General Ross quick to accuse him of betrayal, Banner finds himself hunted not just by the military, but by the very truth of his own presence on the ship.
In "Parte 4: Hulk ¡Desbocado!", the world trembles as El Rey Sapo threatens to crash the Moon into Earth. With Hulk breaking free from his cell and heading toward General Ross’s home, Betty’s desperate cries summon her father, the soldiers, and Rick in a race against catastrophe.
In "Parte 5: ¿El Fin de Hulk?", the Hulk’s rage proves unstoppable as he overpowers the soldiers and takes Betty to Banner’s lab. When a quake from the Sapo Men knocks out Rick, the dawn brings a desperate gamble—Banner, now in control, deploys his Gamma cannon to face the looming threat.
In "Parte 1: Exiliado al Espacio Exterior," Hulk is trapped in a bunker built by Bruce Banner, while Rick Jones, seeking rest, is captured by the military and enlisted to test a new rocket prototype. With Rick’s help, Hulk is freed—only for the pair to be lured into a trap orchestrated by General Ross. As the rocket launches, Rick begins to realize he might be able to control the Hulk, but the connection proves unstable, especially when he sleeps.
In "¿Podrá hacer frente el Increíble Hulk a... El Maestro de los Anillos?", the Hulk must confront the enigmatic El Señor de Pista, a circus master pulling strings from the shadows, after Rick Jones is ensnared in a hypnotic trap at the very circus the FBI is investigating. When the Hulk’s instincts kick in and he charges in to save his friend, he’s quickly overwhelmed—only to break free when the FBI arrives, leading to a chaotic showdown that ends with a desperate escape.
In "¡El Monstruo y la Máquina!", Betty Ross grows increasingly uneasy about the strange connections between Hulk, Bruce Banner, and Rick Jones. When the military captures Rick during a test of a new weapon, Bruce and Rick must confront the limits of control—leading Bruce to risk another gamma exposure in a desperate bid to stay himself even in Hulk form.
In "¡La Bella y la Bestia!", Bruce Banner, Rick Jones, Betty Ross, and General "Trueno" Ross stumble upon military footage that catches the attention of Tyrannus, ruler of a hidden underground realm. When Betty is captured and taken to his arena, Hulk is forced to fight as a gladiator—until Rick escapes and frees her. As they flee, Hulk leads them through crumbling ruins, tearing down walls to block pursuit.
In "¡Las Hordas del General Fang!", the Hulk finds himself hunted by General "Trueno" Ross in a frozen trap, barely escaping before the army closes in. Later, while resting with Rick, they hear a desperate plea from a small Asian nation under siege by the ruthless General Fang—a tyrant Bruce recognizes from his research. Determined to stop Fang before he threatens the world, the Hulk sets out to confront him.
In "¡Contra El Amo del Metal!," the Hulk faces a terrifying new foe: the Amo del Metal, a mind-controlled metal entity threatening a military rocket launch. When the Hulk transforms, he keeps Bruce Banner’s mind intact—leading him to don a mask as he battles the alien menace, only to be captured by the very forces he’s trying to protect. With help from Rick and the newly formed Juvenil Brigade, a daring plan unfolds to turn the tide—before the final outcome is revealed.
