MARVEL.COM: Why was Red Hulk the right antagonist for the story you’re telling here?

ZDARSKY: I mean, it’s a Hulk with the tactical ability of a U.S. General and some deep-seated trauma from imprisonment in a foreign country. There’s a lot to play with there, and right now, General Ross has some very specific ideas of what the world should be. How do you stop a guy with that level of power and forethought?

MARVEL.COM: Avengers: Armageddon promises to shake things up for Earth’s Mightiest Heroes just like Disassembled did. Anything you can tease about the new Avengers era that will rise in its wake?

ZDARSKY: Oh man, well, it’s going to be pretty fractured, but when things are looking dark, someone will always step up. But what they’ll face will be wildly unexpected. Sorry, that’s vague, I know. But man, oh man, I’m pretty excited for people to see where we’re going!
