Another masterpiece from the mind of Peter David, Future Imperfect is praised by fans and critics not only as some of his best Hulk work, but as some of his best work overall!

Brought forward in time ninety years and arriving in a post-apocalyptic future, the Hulk is beseeched by a group of resistance fighters to take down the being responsible for all the devastation. A being known only as "the Maestro."

But the battle won't be a simple one, for the Hulk soon learns that the Maestro is none other than a bizarre future incarnation of himself! Driven insane by decades of persecution, made even stronger by the free-floating radiation of the era, and having nearly a hundred years more experience than his younger self, the Maestro will rank as the Hulk's greatest challenge ever...... assuming he survives it.

Featuring art by George Perez and colors by Tom Smith, Future Imperfect is a modern-classic that belongs in every fan's collection.

by NOT buying this masterpice when i had the chance! My Library had a copy and i took it out, read it and loved it! i thought that i could just go back there for when ever i had a craving to read this great story, but now it's listed as "missing," i.e. some kid borrowed it and never returned it. Now it's out of print, hard to find, and when u can find it it's pricey. Well, it's availble here and i'm gettin' my copy before the're all gone, and if you like the
Hulk or super-hero comics in general, buy this baby while you still can.

What can I say that hasn't already been said by others? I have read and re-read this book many times. It is one of the best Hulk stories you'll ever read and the art is great, too. Almost no prior knowledge of the Hulk is necessary to fully enjoy this masterpiece. Buy this thing now!

Peter David & George Perez' "Future Imperfect" has got to be one of the greatest, coolest and most clever comic-book stories ever. I totally enjoyed reading it again and again...
What I particularly liked:
Banner/Hulk meets Hulk/Banner of the future. The future, older Hulk looks cool! His look and personality is spot on. I really think this is how Hulk would and SHOULD end up being in a few decades time!
Rick Jones dies in a brilliant, genius way - well I thought so anyway! (Definitely one for Marvel fans!)...
I don't want to give the ending away but I'll just say that the future Hulk's demise is pure class - a work of genius and, it seems, a sort of tribute/homage to "Back to the Future"! (Once you read it, you'll know what I mean...)
Both story and art are first class - can't praise this book enough.
If you're a fan of the Hulk or just great stories, you can't go wrong with "Future Imperfect". It ranks up there along with other comic-book classics such as Dark Knight Returns, Kraven's Last Stand, Kingdom Come, Arkham Asylum, etc...

Ninety years into the future where the world nuked itself into near extinction the incredible Hulk (With Bruce Banner's mind)is brought to bring freedom once again.The Hulk learns that he was brought there by Rick Jones.Rick Informs him that after the explosions the Hulk went power crazy and killed off all the heroes. Now known as the Maestro The future hulk wages war against his younger self.

What follows is some of the greatest battle scenes ever seen in a comic book. This book is filled with spectacular art and a perfect story. It is well worth the money.

I loved this story so much. If you are into time travel, you have to check this book out. Fantastic artwork by Perez, and it is written by the ultimate Hulk scribe, Peter David. I reread this quite often.

It is a future imperfect, where all the superheroes of old have died... except one.

In the distant future, a group of rebels open a time portal to the past and brings through it Bruce Banner, aka the Incredible Hulk. This is not the mindless Hulk of old, but the new Hulk with the mind of Bruce Banner.

After adjusting to his new future surroundings, Hulk finds out that the mastermind behind his abduction is no other than Rick Jones, who is now old and wheelchair bound. Rick has brought the Hulk into the future in hopes that he can restore freedom to a dictatorship world. This future is filled with Gestapo-like police that has free reign over the residents. However, the police all follow the leadership of the Maestro, a powerful dictator who is actually the future version of the Hulk!

What we are treated to is a fantastic story of the future of the Marvel Universe, where the remains of heroes are kept in jars in Rick Jones' basement.

This is a fantastic story of an alternate post-apocalyptic world run by the Hulk. Peter David, who has written many Hulk stories, doesn't miss a beat in this absolutely fantastic tale. He keeps the story very fluid and interesting. The artwork is wonderful, as the legendary George Perez does it.

I definitely recommend this book to any Hulk fan, or anyone looking for a quality story.

One of the best sci-fi stories, comic or not, ever.Fantastic book. Read it some 15 years ago and enjoyed it even more upon a recent reading.

The Ultimate Comic Book Fight, Hulk vs. Hulk. Hulk in thrown into the future where his future self controls everything. That pretty much sets everything off. One of the finer moments in Hulk History. So just buy this, now, and be preparded to see how a real Hulk Story is written.

This is simply one of the best Hulk stories ever. You have long time Hulk writer Peter David, with some amazing artwork by the great George Perez. I won't spend much time describing the story itself, I'll just say it's great. Definitely pick this up if you're a Hulk fan, if you're not this is a great story to introduce you to the character. Just a must have in my opinion. Also, if you enjoyed this book, pick up the novel The Incredible Hulk - What Savage Beast which continues this great story.
