Episode 85 — The Incredible Hercules

September 24, 2014

This week on View from the Gutters our topic work is The Incredible Hercules, Vol. 1: Against the World, written by Greg Pak and Fred Van Lente, with art by Khoi Pham. Following the events of World War Hulk, Hercules took over the Hulk’s comic, teaming up with Amadeus Cho—a young man known as the 7th Smartest Man in the World. In this volume we see Herc and Cho fighting against a SHIELD they no longer trust as well as Herc’s brother, Ares, who was at the time an Avenger.


In our recommendation section, our hosts nominated The Losers, Infinite Horizon, Morning Glories, Justice League of America, Vol. 1: The Tornado’s Path, and Dungeons & Dragons, Volume 1: Shadowplague for discussion on the next episode, and our selected title is The Losers, Vol. 1. (#1-12)


We invite you to discuss both this episode and its topic on our subreddit.


Our hosts for this episode are Andrew Chard, Tobiah Panshin, Adam Panshin, Brant Gillihan-Eddy, and Cade Reynolds.
