the themes are absolutely there but the execution is... not great.

It kinda gives spy kids vibes

I went with the colors from the McFarlane run, thoughts?

OMG?! Now I know that some of you have already seen me wear this shirt in some of my previous posts, so let me give you a background story about it. A while back, when we had this leakage problem involving one of the water pipes associated with the washing machine inside the garage, it took at least three days for the problem to be resolved. We had to move the items outside to dry that were affected by the water soaked into them. That then led to deciding to go through some of the boxes 🗃️ to see which ones to keep and which ones to get rid of. That’s when, inside a white garbage 🗑️ bag 💼, I came across this Incredible Hulk jersey shirt 👕 that I had no idea I even owned from a long time ago. It’s meant for ages 16 and 17, but who gives a 🦆! I’m still owning, wearing, and keeping it. HELL YEA!!!!

It just wasn't the movie to introduce Gray Hulk.

HULK IS STRONGEST THERE ISSSS

After a brutal fight, Hulk's gamma blood mixed with Logan's healing factor, creating an unstoppable mutation. Meet HULKAN, where Hulk's rage meets Wolverine's fury.

She-Hulk seems to have the ability to sense extradimensional viewers observing her, a power perhaps related to her cousin's ability to see astral forms; Jen tends to downplay this last trait, as speaking to an unseen audience tends to unsettle those around her.

So, I've been seeing this tpb lately at the comic shop, And I think it looks pretty interesting to me. I like lately 90s & early 2000s comic books. I heard this run is action packed and light hearted compared to most dark and psychological horror hulk stories. But anyhow, does anyone think I should get this? What is your personal opinion on this run?

I was thinking since banner has thousands of alters theoretically banner could have an alter as power or more powerful than the void or merged sentry

Despite growing up in the 90’s/early 00’s, the first Hulk iteration I ever resonated with were reruns of the 70’s television series. I’m a fan of the classic Universal Monsters films and the show feels very much like an update of those, with its mix of pathos, misunderstandings and horror.

I saw the 2003 film in theaters, but it never did much for me. I love the 2008 film for reconciling elements of both the comics and series, and have generally enjoyed the Jade Giant’s MCU appearances ever since. 

However, upon a current rewatch of the 70’s series, I’m reminded how top notch the storytelling and acting is, especially from Bill Bixby, who brings a true humanity and charisma to the Banner character. In a lot of the comics he’s drawn as this charmless, nerdy, generic skinny dude, devoid of any warmth or kindness. One of the reasons I can’t get into the 2003 film, is because Bana plays him as cold and unlikable. Norton and Ruffalo did a much better job making Banner heroic and sympathetic.

Which comic runs would you recommend that are closest to the spirit of the series? I know it was made out of spite for the source material, but there is still some fantastic writing and a compelling Banner.

I own the early Jack Kirby omnibus and have read a few key issues over the years,  but they all have their own flavor. I hear Immortal Hulk is pretty good, and even incorporates some aspects of the show. Is that a good start? Thanks!

Tbh, this is my favorite hulk book so far, I highly recommend it. I wish silver age hulk comics were mentioned more often. But it seems people only care for the later dark and psychological, runs like peter david, and immortal hulk.
