Peter David is known for his legendary and impactful run on Incredible Hulk, but his acclaimed work on the Jade Giant's mythos is far from over...we just won't be spending time with the Green Goliath!
Having just finished an epic trilogy of limited series that told the grand saga of Hulk villain Maestro, David will now turn his attention to another iconic creation of his: Joe Fixit. The fan-favourite Hulk persona that muscled his way through Las Vegas as a hedonistic bodyguard will star in his very own limited series set during David’s original time on Incredible Hulk.
Joining David in this Sin City adventure will be artist Yildiray Cinar (The Marvels).
"When I created Joe Fixit decades ago, it was merely as a means to shake up the standard formula," David explained. "Typically Bruce would have set up some sort of situation and he would be worried that the Hulk would inevitably show up and screw things up. The storyline with Joe flipped the formula on its head, and set up the Hulk with his great situation in Vegas and he was worried that Bruce would show up to screw things up."
"I had no idea that the character would have this much staying power, and that so much would eventually be done with him in the pages of the Immortal Hulk," the writer continues. "I’m thrilled that Marvel has given me this opportunity to revisit with an old friend."
Joe Fixit has always been one of the most popular Hulk personas, and if it wasn't for the fact that this series isn't launching until 2023, we'd say this might be a hint where the character is heading in She-Hulk: Attorney at Law. Either way, it's about time we see him brought into the MCU in some form.
