Peter David's second Omnibus starts off as a bit of a meander, but with issue #377, we get to the second big arc of David's time on the Hulk, as Bruce gets psychoanalyzed into reintegrating his personalities, resulting in the smart green Hulk。The whole idea of Banner being psychologically damaged was entirely new in the early '90s, and issue #377 was the strong culmination of that plotline, something that might not be as obvious from a generation later。As for the new status quo: it's great, not Peter David's second Omnibus starts off as a bit of a meander, but with issue #377, we get to the second big arc of David's time on the Hulk, as Bruce gets psychoanalyzed into reintegrating his personalities, resulting in the smart green Hulk。The whole idea of Banner being psychologically damaged was entirely new in the early '90s, and issue #377 was the strong culmination of that plotline, something that might not be as obvious from a generation later。As for the new status quo: it's great, not just because we get a smart Hulk, but also because we get the introduction of the Pantheon, a fun group of mythically themed characters operating in semi-secret doing semi-black-ops stuff。 It's a good new direction for the Hulk, and as unique of a direction as when he was a legbreaker in Vegas。In the last half year (issues #395-400), the Hulk even returns to greatness。 We get a great two-issue return to Vegas, and a great four-issue return of the Leader, allowing one of the Hulk's greatest foes to also bring this second volume to an end, as if he were ticking off each of the arcs in David's time。 There's so much going on in this second Leader storyline that it's impossible to comment on it all, except that it's David at his best。 。。。more

I’m really glad I gave this a shot。 I was iffy after volume 1, but now I understand why David’s run is so revered。 It’s got a great arc to it that comes together at the end of the back so satisfyingly, now I’m frustrated I have to wait a few months for volume 3。 Definitely worth picking up even for casual Hulk fans。
