I was marginally excited for Marvel’s Hulk Vs. straight-to-DVD cartoon, if only because I figured by telling two stories–Hulk versus Wolverine and Hulk versus Thor–there’s probably be less time for nonsense, and more time for fighting, which is what we all want to see. And then I watched the new preview from Marvel, and Hulk Vs. has smashed the hell out of…some kind of bad thing, because watching this, all I can see are very awesome things. Hulk hitting Wolverine with a rock? Thor being genuinely scared because Hulk has come to Asgard? Weapon X and goddamn Deadpool? I can’t believe how great this looks. Frankly, if Next Avengers: Heroes of Tomorrow was the price we had to pay for Hulk Vs., I say we’re possibly coming up even.

It by Rob Bricken About The Author Robert Bricken is one of the original co-founders of the site formerly known as Topless Robot, and its first editor-in-chief, serving from 2008-12. He brought the site to prominence with “nerd news, humor and self-loathing” as its motto, raising it from total internet obscurity to a readership in the millions, with help from his savage “FAQ” movie reviews and Fan Fiction Fridays. Under his tenure Topless Robot was covered by Gawker, Wired, Defamer, New York magazine, ABC News, and others, and his articles have been praised by Roger Ebert, Avengers actor Clark Gregg, comedian and The Daily Show correspondent John Hodgman, the stars of Mystery Science Theater 3000 and Rifftrax, and others. He is currently the managing editor of io9.com. Despite decades as both an amateur and professional nerd, he continues to be completely unprepared for either the zombie apocalypse or the robot uprising.
