Marvel Watch: More Hulk?

Rumors are abound about the future of marvel's slate, past Avengers 2. It's assumed, by this point, that A2 will feature Thanos primarily, with Guardians of the Galaxy and maybe even Iron Man 3 leading up to it. This focus on cosmic marvel is stellar and really a joy to anticipate. I love the cosmic marvel comics so far, particularly Annihilation, and I'm excited for where they're going with this.

But the latest rumors are that Hulk will be a major part of phase 3. Namely the argubaly biggest modern Hulk comics to date, Planet Hulk and World War Hulk. I watched Planet Hulk and read World War Hulk, and they're both fantastic stories. PH would be a more gladatorial-type film, different from marvel's slate thus far. And if rumors are true, and Avengers 3 is really World War Hulk, that could be exciting as well. Either that, or something along the lines of Civil War or Secret Invasion, although I don't think marvel will keep venturing cosmic.

I think it's an interesting rumor, and could pan out to be interesting. The Illuminati would likely feature heavily here. And it may be a more personal type of story, them facing one of their own. Marvel's really playing their cards smart here, picking and choosing wisely from the comics. Can't wait!
