Serious answer: the source is apparently Silver #22, an ongoing comic based off the Lone Ranger's horse of the same name. In which he seemed to kick plenty of rear end, too:

You know what I really liked about the Amadeus Cho/Hulk days? When Amadeus figured out that the Hulk still has super-intelligence, but it's all dedicated to making sure nobody gets killed by his rampaging. Sure, he destroys tanks and buildings and geography, but people make it out alive.

It's been written both ways. But he's probably brought down more than one skyscraper in his time. Can't imagine that could be done without a few casualties even if you are a comic book super-genius.

This was partially done with the Hulk movies. They had to direct the action very carefully to ensure Hulk didn't ACTUALLY kill anyone directly. Ostensibly because they wanted to keep his character relatively cartoon-hero simple and not something that started to become morally complex. Even Wolverine didn't really kill a lot of people in the first few X-men movies despite whipping his claws everywhere.

Except it turned out in the end that none of it was actually Hulk's fault! Even though he does cause tons of collateral damage!

Waterhaul posted:Greg Pak (?) during his run decided that the Hulk couldn't be a hero if he'd killed anybody, even accidentally so retconned it such that nobody was every killed from a Hulk rampage He did make an exception for those times he got mind controlled or that time he turned into a super-grey Hulk and a couple of other situations but yeah he basically directly contradicted the generally accepted view that there's no way that the "regular" Hulk wouldn't have caused at least a couple people to die from all the times he collapsed buildings or punched tanks. As Bendis put it "you know in the first Hulk movie, when he throws that tank half a mile and they show the soldiers crawling out totally fine? Didn't you think to yourself "bullshit!" when you saw that?" Pak justified it with some weird "Bruce Banner's subconscious used super-math to prevent the Hulk's destruction from ever killing people" explanation from Amadeus Cho but it still feels kinda hollow. Who ever thought of the Hulk as a "hero" anyway?

Hulk doesn't indiscriminately rampage and murder, and I'd never believe a characterization where he does. But do I believe that, say, when he picks up a tank and throws it at a helicopter because the puny army is bothering him, he gives a poo poo if the soldiers die in the explosion/crash? No, no I do not.

Hulk's rampages aren't indiscriminate, they only happen when he's angry. You wouldn't like him when he's angry.

If I want to watch a man turn into a monster that indiscriminately murders and rampage, I'll watch a werewolf movie. One of the reasons I like Peter David's run on Hulk so much (and I suspect I might have some people agree with me on this) is because he figured out a way to make Hulk heroic and it didn't feel forced.

Note: Hulk's definition of things that make him angry may be different from yours. Hulk has, on occasion gone on a rampage because he came across a statute of Socrates and it made Hulk think about himself, and THAT JUST MADE HULK MAD! Edit: Also no ammount of Super-math is going to explain away that time the Hulk destroyed a Russian Submarine. Of course, those Ruskie's had it coming...for being Communists in a Marvel comic in the 60's.

I always thought it was less "Hulk has never killed a single human being! How wrong you are for hating Hulk!" and more about keeping his body count in the low tens as opposed to the thousands/millions.

Hulk got sent to space because everything the Illuminati did had to a) fail completely and b) make life concretely worse for a significant number of people. Him killing or not killing people was secondary.
