(I originally read these comics in early December 2015)
'Savage Hulk' # 1-4 comprise a retroactive tale by Alan Davis that follows on from 1970's X-Men # 66. The art's as nice as you'd expect, but the story's no great shakes. I honestly can't remember much about it and I only read it yesterday. The Leader and the Abomination turn up, because when don't they (Hulk could really do with a more expanded rogue's gallery), and Marvel Girl "hulks out" after being dosed with his gamma power. Less Jean Grey, more Jean Green.
Issues # 5 and 6 are a short story set during the 'Crossroads' era of the Hulk's history, after Doctor Strange had exiled him to an inter-dimensional nexus. The Doc is called upon to face the consequences of this act in what is a good story with decent art, both from Gabriel Hardman.
'Hulk vs. Thanos' should have been Savage Hulk # 7-10, but the Marvel bean-counters obviously thought that by releasing it with 'Thanos' in the title, more people would buy it. Hulk's main foe here is actually Annihilus, making that move feel like cynical mis-marketing. It's by Jim Starlin and supposedly fits into the latest Thanos epic he's currently weaving at Marvel, but this isn't up to his past glories. Some of the dialogue feels very old-fashioned and out of step with current Marvel, but Starlin's art is detailed and attractive.
