H4H was canceled after World War Hulk.
Was the storyline any good? I dunno. There were a couple of controversies associated with it, but that doesn't really mean much. I suppose if you were liking the direction of the book prior to WWH, that's probably the best reason to pick up the final volume.

Thanks! Given that i dropped the book around that time because I felt it was going downhill, I suppose i should just leave it at that.

The tragic figure of the leader of HFH, in WWH, standing alone, (after being abandoned by her team in spectacular circumstances), leaves a book, that started with amazing promise, to fade into obscurity. Shang Chi carrying off the, (as-yet unconfirmed), deceased body of his lover, the transformed Humbug's head literally cut off, Colleen shattered by the WWH failure of the team to gel, and the conceited bounty hunter who dumps Black Cat for the money. I thought it was a shame that this set of characters couldn't get the same consideration that the Warbound got, and was left to be obliterated by the creators, as their last horrah. After all, the HFH were bound intrinsically to the Warbounds Brood, and were attracted to her presence by Humbugs obsession to destroy her. That aspect was never resolved, considering Humbug was only an emissary of the Savage Land bugs who transformed him.
