Why are Archangel and Hercules helping Hulk?

[The Real Rogue]

Why are Archangel and Hercules helping Hulk and are there others (besides the Warbound) who are going to assist Hulk in his strougle, and if so, who?

[CMBMOOL]

Well the reason Archangel and Hercules are aiding the Hulk is due to a past mistake of the Hulk fighting the former LA team the Champions.

The information can be stated here :

So Adamus Cho is recuriting them due to what the She-Hulk told them over their conversation within Incredible Hulk #106.


So now do you understand why. :(

well, we only saw Hercules & Angel in the last panel of the prologue, so we have yet to see them help The Hulk at all.

in fact, there's a preview around showing Hercules fighting The Hulk so yeah.

but they're open to the idea because they feel guilty of them attacking the hulk when he was trying to help someone.

I recall seeing a preview cover on which asome heroes were presented who will be assisting Hulk in WWH. Hercules and Archangel were among them as well as Scorpion (female) and one or two others. I forgot them, sorry

To be honest, I'm hoping for a better explanation than "they were on a together for 20 issues".

Herc is probably still pissed ab out CW, so it gives him an excuse to go after Stark and Richards. As for Angel, you got me. He may just be pissed that he isn't featured in any current books and want some attention.

DING DING DING!!!

Warren Worthington III inexplicably has fans who actually want to see him despite the fact he's a worthless character IMO ever sine he lost the metal wings.

Not enough justification though.
"Aarrrr, I am so pissed with Stark and Richards that I better go after all the guys who AGREED with me as well!" Not to mention that Herc stood down when Cap commanded so one wonders if he wouldn't say "Hang on... Cap surrendered because New York has being destroyed... why exactly am I helping this new guy destroy new York?"

Well they haven't helped the Hulk yet, is the first answer.

They are PLANNING to help the Hulk, but plans do not survive first contact most of the time.

So wether they do end up fighting the majority of the other Heroes while siding with Hulk is yet to be seen.

IGN Comics: Will we see any other X-Men that are sympathetic to the Hulk's situation? It seems like many of them could relate given the theme of being cast out from society.

Gage: Yeah, generally speaking… had their been different circumstances, it's entirely possible that the X-Men, or at least specific members of the team, might have come down on his side and understood where he was coming from. But the specific circumstances here, where the Hulk is threatening their home, and where any mutant that dies is a huge loss to the mutant race as a whole, given all of that, there isn't too much of that sympathy. Angel pretty much embodies that view point.
