The ending with the Thing and Hulk was emotional as hell. Their relationship has always been expressed through their fights and just knowing that Hulk (not just Banner) was willing to take a beating just to comfort Ben just shows how great their friendship has been.

Hulk took all the punches from ben without even getting mad cause even hulk knew how much he was hurting the one moment Bruce let hulk take over full control to help their friend out like a true bro would

this scene is also fitting due to how hulk was just as much of a rival to ben grim as hulk was to thor. It's like bringing in your old friend/sparring partner to help sort out your aggression/depression. Truly a very heart warming moment.

Was Annihilus taunting Reid with Johnny's uniform or was it some sort of gesture? You figure if it was the former that'd be more reason to use the nullifier.

Rob, I have a personal message for you. I keep rewatching this episode. I've dealt with anger issues all of my life and most of the time I beat them. Sometimes I don't. This has always been something that gave me an affinity for the Hulk. The Hulk was my anger. My control of it has always been Batman. I recently lost my grandmother. I honestly relate to Ben here. I just wish I had such friends that could take such a beating that I need to get out in some way. The way you portray and narrate this helps my calm. I feel like you probably understand Ben's state as well. By default, probably my state as well. Thank you for helping. You've helped me with this video, so, thank you.

U explained subtext and information only accessed by imagery. You gave analysis of text with having any text. If there were words in this comic it would be in your voice. You did it again. If you were a superhero you would be möbius & the möbius chair of comics. Man I wish there was KZbin award🥇 for best works. That award would be awarded to you twice over.

Thank you so much for this playlist/making these videos. I began watching your channel about a year ago, I was instantly intrigued and fascinated. Reading/watching online turned into research, then a marvel unlimited account, then some trades, then back issues, and now a vibrant pull list. As I type this I'm bag and boarding this entire Fantastic Four/FF run, very recently I've become interested in collecting all of the threads that lead to Secret Wars (Ultimates, Shield, Avengers, New Avengers, Uncanny Avengers [love Kang]). I've since put together nearly everything I can find that leads into that story (As well as a lot of other great stuff from characters that I've fallen in love with; Adam Warlock, Silver Surfer, Quasar, Thanos, Celestials, Cosmic Entities, Squadron Supreme, Overmind, Eternals, The Serpent Crown, etc, etc, ectectctec.) Long story longer, thanks for all you do. Know that you play a quite significant role in the person typing this getting really interested and involved in comics. Thank you!!

Holy shit. Just the page with Ben, Thor and Hulk ... made me cry. It really did. that's why comics are such a great medium. No words. Just some panels of three superhuman dudes duking it out, and in the end i fucking cry because of all the emotions it conveys. And in comics you are able to get known and grow familiar with characters more than in any other media over years, decades even, which makes the emotional impacts of issues like that even stronger.
