Yahoo reports that Marvel Comics will relaunch Hulk in 2027, and that the publisher plans to give away the first issue for free as an entry point to the new series.
The Yahoo item titled “Marvel Comics Is Relaunching Hulk in 2027, and the First Issue Is Free” frames the move as a publisher-level relaunch and says the opening issue will be distributed without charge to readers.
Separately, reporting aggregated by Power of Pop cites Penguin Random House’s Comics Giveaway Day schedule and LaughingPlace coverage to confirm Marvel will offer a new Hulk issue as a free sampler on Comics Giveaway Day; the PRH retailer page lists Comics Giveaway Day for May 2, 2026 and shows Marvel among participating publishers.

Marvel has used giveaway samplers before to launch new or recurring series and to steer readers into ongoing storylines. Power of Pop notes that Comic shops receive publisher-provided giveaway issues and that retailers must order copies by FOC to have stock for the May 2, 2026 Comics Giveaway Day.
The Yahoo headline serves as the primary report for the relaunch timing and the free-first-issue claim; the Power of Pop piece corroborates the free-distribution channel and the Comics Giveaway Day date, giving two independent published touchpoints on how Marvel intends to get the first issue into readers’ hands.

What to watch next: readers should expect official details on creative teams, exact release dates, and any retailer limits from Marvel or Penguin Random House. Power of Pop recommends checking with your local comic shop about quantities and any per-person limits on giveaway copies.
The ORIGINAL_KEYWORD appears in coverage from Yahoo and in promotional summaries cited by industry blogs; fans tracking Hulk relaunched coverage should watch Marvel’s official channels and their local retailers for confirmation of how the free first issue will be distributed.
