World war hulk

Both Hulk and Sentry share similar mindsets in that their minds are fractured with multiple personality disorder. Basically without their superpowers they would both be in insane asylums. Robert had his mind fractured into Void and Sentry (evil / good), and Hulk had his mind fractured into Hulk and Banner (savage / scientist-logic). So it's not really secret identities in the same way that Superman has - with Superman, he's always Superman, he was born that way and will stay that way, whereas both Bruce and Robert become something else that lies deep within their minds.

But if the only split in Sentry's mind is Sentry/Void then Robert and Sentry are the same persona (ie not Void).

I'd say the double powerdown was some weird interaction of their powers. They have a history of strange interactions.

As for the Sentry's behavior, the dude was mad as a hatter before Ultron killed his wife before his eyes. I don't see anything strange about him using his old friend to beat some survivor-guilt out of him and then curling up on the ground while Hulk finishes the party.

GP: Yeah, he's reveling in the insane exhilaration of shedding all his inhibitions and finally unleashing all that power. But when the buzz wears off, those Hulk haymakers are gonna sting.

NRAMA: The Sentry’s "Goodbye old friend" - what was that prelude to? I don't mean to sound like the guy who only saw the special effects and missed the story - but what happened to the Sentry and Hulk to change them back to Bob and Bruce? Was this Bruce consciously deciding to stop, to save the world by sending the Hulk away?

GP: "Goodbye old friend" is the Sentry's way of saying that he figures they're both going to die now that he's unleashed his power so completely. Bob and Bruce appear because these two megaheavyweights have pounded each other so hard and so long that they've forced each other to revert to their respective puny human forms.

Exactly. Stalemate f*ckers!!!

Show me scans of Sentry using crazy speed to punch. Sentry didn't win, stop the whining and accept things as written. durbaby 😂

Everybody seems to forget that Sentry did speed blitz Hulk and got punched for his trouble.

Speculation about Sentry wanting punishment ot whatever is not valid. Reed and Stark stated that Sentry never showed that much power and Sentry himself states that he's never been able to let loose as he did. 😆

The first move yes. But that wasn't seeing as he had time to talk when Sentry once flew to the sun in seconds.

Its a stalemate. 🙄

What was the point of having them stalemate only to have Hulk come back even stronger after Sentry is out for the count? Plus Sentry thought he was going to kill them both with his power it seems while Hulk was trying to just stop him.

Well the story is not about sentry it's about hulk what happened after had more with setting up the hulks new titles than anything to do with the sentry.

Going all out in power yes. But he fought like an idiot and did not fight and win like he should have. So it was a stale mate.

Sentry never used his speed close to what he could have. Not close.

Sentry was using all his power, but he wasn't fully in control. That smile he wore for the whole fight - it was disturbing. He wanted Hulk to hit him, he was enjoying it. Maybe he was egging him on because he was not in control and needed Hulk to stop him. At the same time, his radiaton that's calmed Hulk in the past, was on overload so much it eventually changed Hulk back to Banner.
A very good fight; neither side is shamed. I could hear the sound effects in my head as I read. That's how intense it felt.

I can't wait for Fear to eat his words.

This may be true.

But again badaing does it seem odd that it took sentry more pannels to get to hulk who was at best two miles away then it took sentry to get to the sun.

just thought I add that in.

Lets put a fun little twist on this.

Sentry getting to the sun in seconds was PIS 😐

Or even better we can use science to invalidate it. He used the gravity well of the sun to accellerate and thus isn't normally that fast.

Or maybe he's a hero and didn't want to deafen every body as he flew past.

it wasent though. He supose to have superhuman speed.

also lets play this game another way.

hulk reacting to sentry speed is PIS

this game works both ways.

But what likly happen was sentry was not flying close to full speed into hulk. Not sure why maybe he simply wanted a slug match who knows. Maybe he thought it would not matter either way.

at best, Sentry was moments from death, at worst, he was 30 seconds from death.

Hulk never went away, the green glow in Bruce's eyes is testament to that.

Bruce might have returned but Hulk neither ran out of juice nor was anywhere even remotely close to affected by Sentry's "power of a million exploding suns".

the net effect, undeniable to the sane, is that Sentry spent himself whilst Hulk didn't.

stalemate would require both parties to be equally incapable of further attacks.

you try and believe in your stalemate, I prefer the reality of the situation. Hulk came back exponentially more powerful just in a few panels, and was going to break the whole world, had he not helped Tony and co stop him.

........sciences in the comic world does not work well.

sorry, but he flew to the sun if any thing gravity woudl work against him.

So he sufered from cis. Seems kinda odd.......seeing how people said he lost control........

WTF the writer who just wrote it just said it and you deny it. Your a complete retard.

Wasn't is said in WWH about how Bruce and Hulk were the same?

In a way. But Hulk still had different energy's didn't he. He used his for the time being and stalemated like the writer said.

Hulk fanboys are so stupid.

stalemate is not what Gregg Pak said, he may or may not be alluding to such a scenario but it's not what he said there.

he said they forced each other to revert (Sentry forced Hulk, Hulk forced Sentry), not that both were completely spent.

I told you before to go read up the definition of the word Stalemate, in a dictionary. you continue to abuse the english language and to confuse yourself with this inappropriate use of the word.

if Bruce/Hulk had been knocked out too, then it would be fair to say that it was a stalemate, is it stands Bruce/Hulk was standing and holding even greater power in reserve... he may have been forced to revert, but it took everything Sentry had to just get him to that position, and that position isn't even one that Hulk couldn't/wouldn't recover from.
