Incredible Hulk Vol. 5: Gods Drink Blood - Paperback

by Phillip Kennedy Johnson (Author), Danny Earls (Illustrator), Nic Klein (Illustrator)

Phillip Kennedy Johnson's horror-infused, monstrous run on the Hulk continues!

In the aftermath of Bruce Banner and Charlie Tidwell's dramatic escape from Las Vegas, they're back on the road and lying low -- or so Banner thinks. But as Charlie goes off at night to revel in the newfound power she doesn't understand, she's found by the Werewolf by Night, who warns her about the consequences of what she's done -- and what she's becoming. Meanwhile, the Hulk is hunted down by one of those consequences: the immortal wolf-demon Varcolac, one of the oldest, most powerful creatures on Earth! As Charlie revels in her new strength, her childhood fantasy of becoming a super hero seems within reach after all -- but as she continues to change in terrifying ways, she's not sure whether she's still one of the good guys. Plus: Banner becomes completely locked away within the body and mind of the Hulk! And Doctor Strange drops by for a spell!
