This is a great collection of stories which reprints Hulk #1 (where Bruce Banner and Betty Ross first met), along with a cool 70's ish drawn by Herb Trimpe where Betty is the Harpy--one of the coolest Hulk villians!

John Byrne, Todd McFarlane, Andy Kubert, and LOTS of Dale Keown. Some of these issues have been reprinted before (Hulk #1??? How many times?) especially the "Honey I Shrunk the Hulk" issue (#377) which also appears in "Transformations" paperback.

Good collection of stuff w/ commentary by Peter David.

If your a Betty Ross Banner fan, you'll love this! Its a tribute to the love between Bruce and Betty. Betty is one of the most substansial characters in Bruce Banners life, and this helps her legacy continue until after her demise. Every Hulk fan will love this book. I highly reccomend it. Also, the Harpy's in it.

This TPB effectively brings the reader the greatest and most important stories of the relationship between Betty Ross and Bruce Banner.
All of the stories are very entertaining, and yet very tragic.

This trade paperback features the last Hulk stories Peter David wrote and you could tell that by then he had run out of ideas to do wih the Hulk so he wrote a story where something really devestating happens with the Green Guy.It was something that most readers did not like and many haven't read the comic ever since. It was a sad ways for david to end what was mostly a suucessful run on that comic. Today the Marvel novels that feature the Hulk are the only source of good story material left that they can still better Hulk stories.
