Hulk News from Wondercon

Wondercon is this weekend in San Francisco and there was a bunch of Hulk related news at the Marvel Mondo Panel. Read and enjoy!

Paniccia said “Jeph Loeb is dropping clues” about who the Red Hulk is. “There's going to be special issue #600 that goes a long way toward that—it won't be the reveal, but it'll get you closer.” The editor said the reveal would occur around the end of Loeb's run, probably around #20.


The “clever, strategizing” Hulk persona will be seen again “sometime around November,” Paniccia said. He also noted that there is a reason for the character's memory loss, and “Jeph Loeb will be exploring tapping into Hulk's different personas.”

Will the cosmic universe expand after “War of Kings?” “We're going to be doing a 'Skaar Son of Hulk' 'War of Kings' tie in story. Bill [Roseman, editor] is meticulously expanding the cosmic universe—keep your eyes and ears open for more coming up on that.”

Are there future plans for the Warbound characters? Paniccia – Yes, they will be in the Planet Skaar: Prologue coming up, and will play a roll in Skaar moving forward.
