Synopsis

Hulk #4 Synopsis by Julio Molina-Muscara

After knocking out Uatu, the Watcher, Rulk faces the (green) Hulk (the Savage incarnation) in the Nevada desert, location of the new Gamma base. Hulk gets angry and corners Rulk; but the latter is able to halt the Hulk's attack and break his arm. Choking his enemy with a bear hug, Rulk brings the Hulk to San Francisco, and on top of the Golden Gate bridge, takes out the SHIELD hand-gun used to kill the Abomination. However, the Hulk breaks the gun with his teeth and falls into the ocean. Confident of being unbeatable, the Red Hulk raises his arms in victory, but he's surprised by Thor who came to battle the monster.

Hulk #4 Review by Librarian (February 15, 2010)

A simple story with an unexpected outcome. This is the first time that I wish Thor could REALLY kick the Hulk's behind (the Red Hulk's I mean.) The jewel of this issue is the comical scene when Rulk beats Uatu, the Watcher. How could he hit someone who does not harm anyone and won't even defend himself?
