Planet Hulk (2010)

An alien world in need of a saviour gets the Hulk. Worst luck.
It’s based on Greg Pak’s comic arc of the same name but has a lot of content missing. That changes how the story fares, as you’d expect, but also in an ironic way. The comic started good but ran out of steam in the second half. The animation starts out decidedly average and steadily climbs. Along the way it dared to do things that I’d not seen in any other lazy Marvel animation. That reward made the journey worth it.

2½ strengths out of 5
