Canned Air #497 A Conversation with Richard Johnson (The Incredible Hulk: World Breaker, Hero, Icon)

We welcome author Rich Johnson this week to talk about how he became a fan of comics, being a judge for The Eisner Awards in 2011, being credited with popularizing the graphic novel genre in mainstream comic and book stores, and his newest book The Incredible Hulk: Worldbreaker, Hero, Icon. The Incredible Hulk: Worldbreaker, Hero, Icon explores the phenomenon of one of Marvel Comics' most popular super heroes, looks at the most significant and influential Hulk stories, and includes relevant spin-offs and ancillary comic book characters and events.Framed by longtime comic book industry insider Rich Johnson and told using countless comic book images, variant covers, and Marvel Cinematic Universe concept art of both the Hulk and She-Hulk, the book covers how Bruce Banner/Hulk's origin story began; character stories over the decades; Hulk's Avengers story lines; and how Hulk is even powerful and relevant in today's comic book (and super hero film) culture.
