Semper had great freedom when it came to guest stars and included characters such as [[Punisher]] ([[John Beck]]), [[Blade]] ([[James Donald Hall]]), [[Doctor Strange]] ([[John Vernon]]), and [[Madame Web]] ([[Joan Lee]]). He used season long story arcs, against direct orders since that was something not being done in a children's show.

− | The jade giant tries to attack Red King but his bodyguard {{C|Caiera|ph}} protects him. The two fight but Hulk is forced into submission. At Laven's funeral, the group decide to become {{C|Warbound|ph}} and stick together. Hiroim explains that he was a {{C|Shadow Priesthood|ph|Shadow Priest}} but disagreed that Red King was a hero during the {{C|Spike Wars|ph}}. Korg explains that he and his brothers attacked {{C|Earth|ph}} but were driven away by {{C|Thor|ph}} and {{C|Beta Ray Bill|ph}}. Their next fight is against the {{C|Wildebot|ph}}s and the {{C|Eggbreaker|ph}}, which are again easily destroyed by Hulk. Hulk is damaged and Hiroim notices a plant growing from his blood, part of the Sakaarson prophecy. That night Caiera tries to make a deal with Hulk, who is gaining favor from the people away from Red King. She wants the Warbound to escape with their lives but remain fugitives, but Hulk refuses. She explains that the {{C|Spikes|ph}} devastated their world before then Red Prince and his {{C|Death's Head Guard|ph}}s stopped them saving the planet while rescuing her. |

+ | The show as a hit in the ratings. The episode {{eps|Day of the Chameleon}} won an Annie Award for Best Individual Achievement for Writing in the Field of Animation. The series won a NAACP Image Award for Outstanding Animated/Live Action/Dramatic Youth or Children's Series/Special. The show had a major impact on the comics and subsequent adaptations, most notably with the [[Venom Symbiote]]. Before, the symbiote just gave Spider-Man unlimited [[Web Fluid|webbing]]. Afterwards the comics, films, and other series included the aspect that the symbiote increased his aggressive side. In fact, the film ''Spider-Man 3'' included a recreated shot from {{eps|The Alien Costume, Part One}}. Other aspects include making [[Green Goblin]] an alternate personality to [[Norman Osborn]] who actually communicates with and demeans his other self. Additionally, the series finale featured a story of Spider-Man traveling to an alternate universe to team up with several other [[Spider-Men]] to stop an evil version of [[Spider-Carnage|himself]]. A similar story was used in the video game ''Spider-Man: Shattered Dimensions'', the comic story ''Spider-Verse'', and Oscar-winning film {{smitsv}}. |

− | The Warbound's final fight is against the captured Beta Ray Bill. He easily overpowers the others, but Hulk quickly overwhelms and nearly kills the hero from {{C|Asgard|ph}}. Red King offers them their freedom if they kill Elloe, who tried to escape. They refuse and Red King tries to have them killed. Beta Ray Bill recovers and uses {{C|Stormbreaker|ph}} to free all the slaves and gladiators on the planet. The Warbound seek refuge in {{C|An-Sara|ph}} while Hulk goes out on his own. Caiera confronts Hulk while the Warbound are betrayed. However, the return of the Spikes forces them to band together. Caiera, Hulk, and the Warbound fight bravely. Unfortunately, Red King reveals that he created the Spikes to attain power and drops a bomb destroying all life in the city. Caiera lives thanks to her Oldstrong powers and the Warbound hid in a cave saving as many civilians as they could. Caiera brings the Warbound and Hulk's body to the capitol to be on display. However, Hulk is alive and fights Red King with Caiera at his side. They infect him with a Spike so that he is killed by his own guards. Hulk and Caiera start a romantic relationship as saviors and rulers of Sakaar. |

− | Overall, critics felt that ''Planet Hulk'' was one of the best animated features from Marvel. They praised the intense action and beautiful scenery. They pointed out how this Hulk is unlike anything audiences have seen before. Critics pointed out the excellent voice acting and soundtrack, and enjoyed how well the long story was adapted given the time limitations. Though it is generally noted that the movie does not contain quite the rich pathos that the comic series had. Criticisms are usually pointed towards poor video quality on the DVD and special features that don't have anything to do with the movie. |
