Infernal Hulk Unleashes Carnage: Wolverine First Target on Road to 'Hulk War'

Marvel's horror-infused "Infernal Hulk" saga is exploding into a series of brutal one-shot battles, directly paving the way for the massive "Hulk War" crossover event. First up: "Infernal Hulk Vs Wolverine #1" drops this September, pitting the possessed Green Goliath against Marvel's deadliest mutant. This isn't just a warm-up; writer Phillip Kennedy Johnson promises a "final act" full of shocking violence and a ramped-up horror vibe.

Johnson and Nic Klein's acclaimed "Infernal Hulk" run has seen an ancient entity called the Eldest take control of Bruce Banner, turning him into a monstrous force. Now, this corrupted Hulk is assembling his own "Infernal Avengers" army by systematically taking down Earth's mightiest heroes. After Wolverine, he'll clash with the Fantastic Four, Spider-Man, and the Avengers in subsequent one-shots through December.

Fans have been anticipating "Hulk War" (slated for early 2027), and these "Infernal Hulk Vs." issues are its direct prelude. Johnson has hinted at visuals readers "have never seen before," ensuring these aren't your typical tie-ins. Prepare for a savage spectacle as the Infernal Hulk makes his terrifying march towards an epic confrontation.
