Alongside artist George Pérez, David created the Maestro in the 1992 miniseries Hulk: Future Imperfect. In that book, the Hulk was flung into the future and exposed to his Hulk’s darkest timeline — one in which the Maestro rules over the planet with an iron fist. While the Hulk would eventually return to his own era, the Future Imperfect timeline proved to be popular enough to stick around, with Maestro popping up for occasional appearances in books like Exiles and the Genis-Vell Captain Marvel. Starting in 2020, David returned to the character for the miniseries Maestro and Maestro: War and Pax, which began to explore the path that turned the Hulk into an evil tyrant. Now, Maestro: World War M completes the trilogy and closes the door on the Maestro’s story.
Speaking with AIPT, David said, “I am thrilled that Marvel Comics has given me an opportunity to revisit with an old… well, ‘friend’ probably isn’t the best word… an old associate of mine who was and is very entertaining to write.” He also mentioned that “the Maestro has certainly taken off as his own character, and it’s great that I finally had the chance to expand on plot elements that have been rattling around in my head for 20 years.”
In the present day, the Hulk franchise is in the midst of a changing of the guard. Following the cataclysmic ending of Immortal Hulk, writer Donny Cates and artist Ryan Ottley will repackage the green goliath in November’s Hulk. Additionally, Jennifer Walters will return to the pages of her own solo series this January with She-Hulk by Rainbow Rowell and Rogê Antônio.
