I've never thought about it before but drat if ice-slides arent a ridiculously dangerous mode of transport, leaving free-standing unsupported arches of ice about a car wide and however long they are, waiting to break apart and squash any pedestrians underneath.

Yeah, I've always wondered how Iceman hasn't killed like dozens of people. I thought he might just dissipate them but wouldn't he fall if he did so?

Bloodly posted:Hmm? Is this Defenders or Doctor Strange? Strange blew up the universe(And begged Eternity to put it back; he ended up creating a new one almost the same.) and I remember a similar sequence from there. Are you sure you're not thinking of when Sise-Neg went back to the beginning of time, destroyed the universe, and then re-created it exactly the way it was before?

I always thought they just turned to water because "magic" I dunno.  Makes you really think though. Kind of like Black Bolt's polygamy. But that's okay, because he only loves his cousin and not the other four.

Punisher I can get because he's a serious pro, Wolverine I'm pretty sure has killed plenty of innocent people when he's gone berserk (at least during his Weapon X days) but I thought Hulk was responsible of so much collateral damage and civilian casualties that bunch of heroes thought that he needed to be shot into space?

Hulk just depends on the writer. It's a constant bouncing game of retcons with "Hulk kills people because y'know he's the Hulk" and "Hulk has never killed people because Bruce is still a hero and regains enough control to prevent Hulk from killing, yes even with collateral damage".

There was a stupid mini series a few years ago, I think it was a World War Hulk aftermath tie-in, that revealed that there was a part of Banner's brain constantly calculating the necessary physics to make sure that there would never be any casualties from Hulk rampages, just tons of damage.

Even so, what about all the lives he's ruined with his destruction? How many small business owners have lost their entire livelihoods because of his carelessness? The Hulk must be shot into space, for the sake of our job creators!

Is there a new DeConnick book on the way to replace Avengers Assemble? I'm assuming not, but it's a shame since it's easily the best work she's done for Marvel. This whole last arc with Spider-Girl was great.

Sefer posted:Same reason his facial features, proportions, mass, and skin color do? The Official Handbook to the Marvel Universe clearly states that the Hulk gets his mass from an extra-dimensional source, which affects his proportions and features. The skin color's because of Gamma Rays. Doesn't explain the haircut

Could it be because the amount of hair on his head doesn't increase with the size of his head? I suspect that on a normal-sized head, that'd be a perfectly sensible haircut, but on a head as bloody enormous as the Hulk's, it's a mohawk.

Not quite. From Incredible Hulk #110.     Bear in mind Cho is portrayed as a unreliable narrator (after all, he realizes he was wrong about Hulk being a hero when the Hulk tries to smash the world), but the idea is that Hulk only kills deliberately or under the control of others, not accidentally, which is a handy out for writers that want him to rampage without becoming a murderer every time. I don't know if there've been any major contradictions of this since it's been written, but if you want Hulk as an Avenger, it's probably the best way to handle it.

It was their go-to justification for a bunch of stuff. Like Cyclops' eye beams not being created by his eyes, but his eyes being a doorway into an extra-dimension that's full of kinetic ray stuff.

That's also how they explain Hank Pym's ability to change size; he uses Pym Particles to draw matter from another dimension (or something like that). One time, his extra-dimensional mass gained sentience, turned evil and tried to take his place (or something like that).

Speaking of Steve Gerber's Defenders and the Hulk, Steve Gerber's Hulk is the best Hulk there is.  Defenders #22  Defenders #31 BTW, Hulk straight up murders those two hunters on the next page, so Amadeus Cho is totally full of poo poo.

So, does Banner Hulk out anytime he hears a gunshot, thinking it's at him? It makes no sense at all. The whole thing, hell the whole Hulk mythos, is incredibly retarded, and so is anyone who likes and supports the Hulk.

If you're talking about the Defenders page, Hulk is already in the forest watching the deer when the hunters show up. He kind of gets depicted like Frankenstein's Monster in that run. There's lots of scenes of him hanging out with small children or animals and being peaceful until some dickhead attacks him (or kills Bambi's mother).

No, the whole scene with Larry. Larry should have been able to use that full/semi automatic weapon(based on how many shots he DID manage to get off) before Bruce even knew what was happening.

Have you ever fired an automatic weapon in the back of a car? That poo poo will destroy your ears. Larry is obviously using some kind of less-than-lethal AIM issued future gun that fires low velocity plasma projectiles, probably hurts like hell but won't kill you instantly unless you're weaker than a level 8 henchman or the recently introduced loved one of protagonist. Larry also made the mistake of yelling before he fired, and it's been established that Doctor Bruce Banner often wears a Bannertech (TM) personal force field when not hulking out.

In the intro to the Hulk live action series, Banner is trying to change a tire in the rain and the tire iron slips. He immediately hulks out and throws the car. It's amazing he lasts long enough between changes to buy more clothes.

The current Avengers movie canon is that Bruce Banner once shot himself in the mouth and the other guy spit it out. So an automatic weapon from a few feet away probably ain't gonna do it.

I used to think so too, but defenders hulk is written like Lenny from "of mice and men" with the cheese dialled up to 11. He's more or less the spidey super stories version of hulk. When writers try to take hulk seriously it never works for me (didn't he eat people in something?) That list is amazing. TV hulk is stardust level Mary Sue revenge fantasy.
