HORRIBLE COMIC! I absolutley hated this comic. First off because this is suppose to be about the Hulk instead it is about a woman reporter named Sally Floyd. She ruins the book because of her attitude toward everyone! The other charachters are fine. Now Hulk fans this book is not for you if you want to see Hulk you will just barely see him in this comic. There is one upside though my other faviorate other marvel hero makes an awesome appearance(MOON KNIGHT)
A "street level look" at WWH? Not really, but not too bad either Like Civil War: Front Line before it, writer Paul Jenkins returns with World War Hulk: Front Line, which finds reporters Ben Urich and Sally Floyd covering the developments, and getting caught in the middle of, the Hulk's attack on the superheroes of New York City. As far as offering up a "street level look" at the developments of World War Hulk, it doesn't really deliver. However, Jenkins does manage to provide a pretty interesting story that plays more as a side-story to what's going on in Greg Pak's WWH. That being said, there isn't a whole lot else here to really hold your interest either. Ramon Bachs provides some decent artwork too, but the real highlight of this TPB is the World War Hulk: World Breaker prologue one-shot written by legendary Hulk writer Peter David, in which the green goliath reminisces about his past run-in's with Iron Man, the Fantastic Four, and the rest of those he has sworn vengeance upon. All in all, World War Hulk: Front Line isn't a bad WWH tie-in at all, but if you skip it you won't really be missing out on much either.
