Comments: First in a four-issue series featuring creative and unusual takes on famous Marvel characters. Issue includes a three-page preview of UNCANNY X-MEN #416. The villain in the Hulk tale is a one-eyed fellow who gets a burst of strength from spinach…why does that sound familiar? The Hulk story features a cameo by She-Hulk; the Thor tale has cameos by Captain America and Scarlet Witch, with a reference to Peter Parker.

Review: The Hulk tale is a clever little story told in an indirect style, but the interest lies in the art: a series of rough heavily outlined figures in panels that extend the width of the page, and get more agitated as the action heats up. The Thor story is very unusual: the art is a series of full page portraits of the God of Thunder as background for Elise’s letters. The theme is the struggle for faith: to any believer who has tried to maintain trust in God during times of suffering, Elise’s attitudes will be very familiar indeed. Yet the theme is subverted by using Thor as its unlikely focus, as he has never been shown to have the omniscience or omnipresence to answer prayer, guide worshippers nor do anything other than use his divine powers for superheroing. The Thor who appears in the majestic portraits is never shown to be concerned or even aware of his follower’s suffering, making him a distant and unconcerned deity. Whether you take this as a slap at all religions, a case study in projection, or a lesson about the need for a properly grounded faith depends on what you bring to it. A startlingly mature exploration of an unlikely topic for a superhero comic book.
