Across the infinite stretches of the multiverse, countless worlds are forever changed by the monster known as the Hulk... but must his tale always end in tragedy? Join us as we revisit Marvel's alternate worlds for new tales of the rampaging green goliath! Go on a journey to the House of M, the Microverse, a Future Imperfect, Age of Apocalypse, the Days of Future Past, the Marvel Mangaverse, and the years 1602 and 2099! Then, you know the HULK, but it's time you met his whole family. From Bruce's cousin She-Hulk to those who've inherited his irradiated genes, Hulk's family tree is looking a little greener all the time. Featuring: The Sensational She-Hulk, Skaar, The Daughter of Hulk, and Thundra! Plus: legendary scribe Chris Claremont delivers an epic battle between the Hulk and Colossus! Collects Hulk: Broken Worlds #1-2, Hulk Family #1, and X-Men vs. Hulk.
Sadly for the Hulk I actually picked this up for the X-Men story at the end (Colossus and Kitty Pryde fight the Hulk so Wolverine can see how tough Colossus is). That was worth the price of admission alone, and is a nice showing of how Colossus might take down the stronger, tougher Hulk.
But actually the other stories are pretty good - I like alternate universe tales and the massive number of artists (eleven for 5 issues) used to draw each different one makes this an incredibly interesting showcase of talent. Especial highlights are a really sweet Days of Future Past issue in which the Hulk breaks out of his concentration camp to post some letters and a hilarious issue from Future Imperfect where the hulk hurling Captain America's shield has some fairly bad consequences for a random thug a few miles away.
