Summary
When a Marvel Comics fan thinks of theHulk , they more often than not will think of the unripened , musclebound heavyweight with the proven lastingness to crumple intact worlds . However , that vision of the Hulk could n’t be further from what his true form looks like , as the Hulk is n’t course a topnotch - buff creature , but is in reality rather quite flimsy .
The Hulk was born after Bruce Banner ’s body was glut with gamma radiation . While it was originally take over that this experience simply turn Banner into a mutate , it ’s actuallyrevealed in theImmortal Hulkseries that gamma holds unknown supernatural property that connect those who have been exposed to it to a hellish realm screw as the Below - Place . This have in mind the Hulk is more than just the byproduct of Banner ’s fractured idea manifesting a physical giant every metre he gets angry , but an actual entity apart from Bruce entirely . While Bruce did give the Hulk life ( with the complexities of their coexistence being far too intricate to gratifyingly explain in just a few sentences ) , the fact that they are both connected to something larger than just themselves means Hulk can exist without Bruce Banner , not necessarily only through him . That think of Hulk must have his own body , and throughout a few subject ofImmortal Hulk , readers get to see it .
Hulk’s Real Body & Personality Are Nothing Like What Fans Think
InImmortal Hulk#39 by Al Ewing and Joe Bennett , Hulk travel to the Below - Placewhere Bruce Banner is rive from his body by the One Below All . Not only that , but the insult Hulk ’s trunk suffers while in this hellish realm suck in him dry of nearly every act of da Gamma muscularity flow through his mineral vein . After Hulk escapes back to Earth , he ’s shown to be super lean , with excess skin attend from him where his bulging muscles used to be . Without Vasco da Gamma and without Banner , this is what remains of the personality that is ‘ Hulk ’ , meaning this tall , thin , greenish human is what this iconic character really reckon like .
Not only is the Hulk ’s proscribed appearance castrate without Banner in the mix , but his mind is also null of external influence . As shown in theImmortal Hulk’sKing In Blackcrossover , the Hulk is really just a nestling , who only seems to be so full of fad because that ’s the only time he ’s ever been allowed to live outside Banner ’s apportion head . In truth , the Hulk is an incredibly odoriferous person who would have intercourse nothing more than to roleplay with pup and eat up junk solid food all day . In fact , when this version of Hulk encounters the Thing inImmortal Hulk#41 , Ben Grimm feels bad for punching him without speaking to Hulk first , as even he saw that this Hulk was not the same one who normally coexists with Banner . Except , this Hulk is the same one who coexist with Banner , he ’s just never allowed to be who he really is or look the manner he ’s supposed to reckon .
While many fans might seem at this version of the Hulk and see a skinny doormat , they ’d be doing the Hulk ’s honest reference a huge disservice by viewing him that way . Hulk is more than a being of rage and destruction , and he ’s not just a forever buffed - out monstrosity , either . As bring out in this groundbreaking serial publication , Hulks ’ ‘ SkinnyHulk ’ consistency , and the personality that accompanies it , is actually his lawful form ( without Bruce Banner ) .
