This week saw the launch of a new “Incredible Hulk” series by Phillip Kennedy Johnson and Nic Klein (which, full disclosure, so far lives up to “Immortal Hulk”), as well as the 20th anniversary of the character’s debut on the big screen. With those in mind, we wanted to know: what is your favorite version of Bruce Banner’s alter-ego? He’s had many over the years, starting with the relatively intelligent Gray Hulk from his first appearance in 1962, who gradually transitioned into the green, childlike Savage Hulk many of us know and love.
Peter David really got the ball rolling during his “Incredible” run from 1986 to 1998, bringing back the Gray Hulk as Joe Fixit, introducing the merged Professor Hulk incarnation, and more. Subsequent writers have favored a smarter green version harking back to his early years, dubbed the Gravage Hulk by fans, plus “Immortal Hulk” writer Al Ewing, who used the term to describe Greg Pak’s Hulk in the series’ letter pages. And then there’s the terrifying Immortal Hulk himself, who was originally introduced as the Devil Hulk during Paul Jenkins, Ron Garney, and Sal Buscema’s run in 2000.
So be sure to smash that vote button to tell us who your favorite Hulk is, and to check back for the results on Monday. Hulk out!
