Hey all... I didn't see a thread on this. If one exists, please forgive me and either delete or move this...
These may not be complete spoilers as I only thumbed through this and am writing this entirely off of memory. Please add more if you need to!!!

spoilers:

Basically a Big Ole' Code Red vs. X-Force brawl occurs and lots of smashing ensues. Key points...

Crimson Dynamo vs. Archangel: Archangel gets the jump on CD. CD exits suit, and suit explodes sending AA out of the fight permenantly.

Deadpool vs. Warpath: Deadpool cracks jokes. Throws a knife at WP who catches it with his hand.

Punisher vs. X-23. Punisher stabs X with a cue stick. I think she retaliates by hitting him back.

Thundra vs. Domino: Domino beats her miserably. As she is about to shoot her Electra enters and her and Domino go at it. Electra reveals that no one on Code Red knows WHY they after Domino. Domino thinks something is wrong and that there is a hidden agenda by Red Hulk. And that this whole thing is a set up.

Wolverine vs. Red Hulk. Wolverine fights Red Hulk. Stabs him. Thinks that Red Hulk is Green Hulk but another shade and hasn't realized that this a different Hulk all together. During the fight, he Stabs Rulk in the eyes with his claws. Rulk throws Wolverine across town. Wolverine does NOT get his face punched off. Instead, Wolverine comes back and Runs down Rulk with a fuel tanker. Rulk has to fight blind as for some reason, his eyes won't heal from Wolvie's stab. As he is getting ready to finish Rulk off, RED SHE HULK appears in ripped clothing and aims a gun at Wolverine. Rulk's internal dialogue during the fight is how Rulk was created b/c the gov't thought "men like X-Force were heroes". But Rulk is the only real hero.

end of spoilers

I sure hope that spoilers:

RED SHE HULK is not Domino as the clothes are very similar as is the weapon she carries

end of spoilers.

For some reason, for all the hype I thought the Rulk vs. Wolvie fight was yawn. It was supposed to be exciting... it just wasn't. But Churchill knocked it out of the park.

Wait a minute! Punisher and Deadpool are in this series!

I am extremely scared that spoilers:

end of spoilers.

For some reason, for all the hype I thought the Rulk vs. Wolvie fight was yawn. It was supposed to be exciting... it just wasn't. But McGuinness knocked it out of the park again.

Ian Chuchill drew the issue, not McGuinness. So someone beat Rulk insted of loeb just having him punch Wolverine head off. That's a surpise.

Isn't that why most people buy it? For the gratuitous guest stars?

Thanks, I just corrected that in the original post!

Huh? She saw who the Red Hulk is in his human form........ what could the hidden agenda be except killing Domino? That they are going to get heroes to take each other out? Well duuuuuhhh.

Does Pun still have that red hand mark on his chest showing us that he is the Red Hulk?

scouse mouse · 09-30-2009, 02:33 PM

She Rulk better not be Elektra. I usually by all her appearances but there is no way I will buy a bright red version of her in a Loeb book!

Hybrid2 · 09-30-2009, 03:16 PM

Domino beat up Thundra? O-o

Shai Hulud · 09-30-2009, 03:31 PM

this book was another Fail.

ResIpsaLoquitur · 09-30-2009, 05:07 PM

So were Shrulk and Thundra ever on the same page?

Cthulhudrew · 09-30-2009, 05:29 PM

So Wolverine's enhanced senses couldn't tell him that Rulk wasn't Bruce Banner/Hulk?

I'd like to think that this will be explained, but I have a bad feeling it won't...

No. She-Rulk only appears on the very last page with a machine gun and a sai, whilst Thundra is still knocked unconscious inside the bar. However She-Rulk and Thundra's clothing do not appear similar. She-Rulk's clothes look more like Dominoe's if they were torn. Which is probably some of that famous Jeph Loeb misdirection.

I actually caught that. No he couldn't smell the difference and made a direct quote that he thought they were the same.

I'd imagine that all of Hulk's personalities have a separate scent, much like Typhoid Mary.

protege · 09-30-2009, 07:48 PM

I really don't know what to make of Rulk anymore- he's finally starting to develop a conscience, instead of being a straight up badass. I'm starting to think he Might be some kind of offshoot from the Green hulk.

spidarwin · 09-30-2009, 08:16 PM

I don't have the issue here with me...

Wasn't there some Red Hulk internal monologue about a herald of Galactus?

Can someone post the quote for me here, please (In spoiler tag if appropriate)?
