Ok this is part of Bruce Jones's work on the Hulk and i'm really not feeling this arc at all .
It's basically Absorbing Man caught in some sort of secret underground lab/prison and somehow is able to absorb minds without even touching them??
Absorbing Mans powers only work when he touches something and not only that since he can enter minds he has become intelligent and crafty so we spend 98% of this arc completely out of character on purpose which makes me wonder why he didn't just make up a new villian capable of entering peoples minds?
I never really understood why Absorbing Man is one of the Hulks arch enemies in the first place since his mythos has nothing to do with the Hulk but i can assume that some writers decided to use him as a foil to take a break from the ever present gamma conspiracies .
anyways A/m blackmails Bruce Banner to get him to realease A/m from his prison and when he does he somehow takes on the properties of the whole entire lab.
In the end they trick him into popping into one of the professors minds and since that professor is dead he can't escape yet at the end he somehow appears in a baby in china?
The art by Leonardo Fernandez is nice in a slightly angular way that seems very popular nowadays.
I guess i would give this about a C
