The title says it all people Respect The Big Red Machine, The Red Hulk.

During his first 5 issues he has proven to be anything in peoples mind from an utter bad ass to an utter disappointment.

I will now highlight the SMALL amount of work he has accomplished.

---------------------------------------Issue 1------------------------------------

We start of by Samson describing what happened in an incident that killed everyone in an Russian village.

She-Hulk: "I get paid for this kind of abuse" laughing

This Fight with Abomination leveled the Village and causes ALMOST everyone in the village to die.

Kills Abomination smile

We also find out this new Hulk gives of radiation, so much so it makes Sand into glass (When sand is heated to a point it is turned into glass).

In the end, they find a survivor and all he could say is "...red." evil face

Disrespected!!!

In this new issue of the Hulk, he invades Iron-Man 8 billion dollar Helicarrier and utterly ass-rapes everyone. We also find out he is out to kill Rick Jones, and it turns out, there a second Abomination, called a bomb smile

Issue 3 is a classic show down between A-Bomb and Rulk. They continously fight and personally, I thought the Rulk was going to win until The Harpies kicked in and The Savage Hulk returned.

BTW...I thought A-Bomb was cute embarrasment

------------------------------------Issue 3---------------------------------------

And so it begin....

http://i52.photobucket.com/albums/g9/Takion_photos/Hulk3008-09.jpg

Rulk steps beside a scanner and gets scanned but destroys it before it confirmed. If you ask me the Military must have a history and they'll probably use it to find out who he is.

http://i52.photobucket.com/albums/g9/Takion_photos/Hulk3010.jpg

A classic Spawn moment. smile

Hulk tries to do what he did to Abomination, instead of level a village, he causes a Magnitude 10 Earthquake.

http://i52.photobucket.com/albums/g9/Takion_photos/Hulk3015.jpg

This causes the Harpies to arrive and interrupt the fight. :P

In Issue 4, its what we have been waiting for all this time. Hulk Vs Rulk and this is where all the funky stuff starts, but still makes him bad ass smile

A lot happened in Issue 5, but I'm only going the post the scans of Rulk Vs Thor, and absolute beatdown...

----------------------------------------Issue 5-----------------------------------
http://i52.photobucket.com/albums/g9/Takion_photos/Hulk5002.jpg

This is probably the only scene where Thor looked like he had a chance.

http://i52.photobucket.com/albums/g9/Takion_photos/Hulk5004-05.jpg

Alot of people don't like Mcguiness' art, I happen to love it.

In the Rulk/A-Bomb to me it doesn't look like one is clearly superior to the other. I feel that fight could've gone either way really.

Also, do you think the same process that turned whoever into Rulk turned Rick into A-Bomb?

I believe they were both there when the incident happened. However, they must have already fought or have been in an explosion. But I don't think the Red Hulk is Samson.

Yeah, I don't buy the Samson theory anymore. I think it's a cosmic being.

I think it could be a new herald...or not. I dont know about Thor, it could be Iron-Mans clone, or a skrull.

Knowsbleed33
There have been some wild rumors swirling around on the net. Some thought he was Ares, others thought it could be Betty Ross.

I came up with the idea that it might be the Beyonder. A while ago the guy that runs the comic shop I frequent said the Beyonder was going to be used in an upcoming story arc. He thought he was going to the protagenist to the Secret Wars arc. But that was proven to be a Kly'bn, a Skrull Eternal. That got me to thinking, what if Rulk is the Beyonder?

Nah, If it was the Beyonder, why would it hate Hulk so much, besides, it said it was once it friend.

Knowsbleed33
Good point. But if you recall, during Secret Wars, The Beyonder was intrigued by the Hulk. He said something about him being an infinite power or something.

Just a thought really.

Hmm...but do you think he'll hold a grudge for years? I think this all could have a connection with Skaar: Son of Hulk.

It could be Onslaught. Hulk did crack his armor.

janus77
Beyonder's too easy going to be Red. and anyway, Red's got nothing even remotely approaching Beyonder levels of power.

if Red was Beyonder, then Thor and all of Asgard would be dead and buried in one punch - hell, it wouldn't even need to be a punch, Beyonder would just flick his booger at Thor and that'd be it for the Thunder God.

I suspect the A-Bomb/Rick thing is the tell-tale clue here. Red is another of the people affected by Hulk going WorldBreaker and unleashing some of that infinity into the world... maybe in combination with Sentry's "million exploding suns".

Red might be Meik, imo. or perhaps the consciousness of Maestro reborn or something (Maestro did comeback to life once by using Hulk's gamma energy residues so that massive outpouring in WWH #5 would be more than enough to bring him back and then some...).

It could be that he's just toying around with everyone. We all know the Beyonder is powerful, but if he wanted to keep his identity a secret, surely he wouldn't display his power all at once.

Like I said, just a thought. I've also been playing around with the idea that it's the Maestro amped by the bomb that created the Hulk.

CaptainStoic
I still think that it's Samson, he is the most logical person that it would be. I had a thought a while back though. When King Hulk went ballistic at the end of World War Hulk 5, perhaps he somehow split into two beings. This would explain why the Green Hulk is once again displaying retarded adolescent behaviorism's. King Hulk was smart and resourceful, Loeb has a lot of explaining to do, if my latest theory is incorrect.

The Kylnn was destroyed, but for the Beyonder to play such a small role, would be redundant to say the least.

I've studied General Ross and the possibility that Rulk is him is slim, and it just doesn't match. For one why doesn't Rulk have the mustache?

Samson's jacket was shredded from an apparent growth spurt... all evidence points to Leonard, and his long disdain towards the Hulk.

Mr.Mxyzptlk
Personally, I think Rulk is Nick Fury. Who ever Rulk really is has a foul mouth, has clearance for Gamma Base, has an intimate knowledge of the S.H.I.E.L.D. Heli-carrier and computer systems, has access to S.H.I.E.L.D. technology, has knowledge of several superbeings, and has knowledge of decent combat tactics.

Honestly, I think Samson is just a red herring.

It can't be Beyonder, Rulk said he needed to hold his breath in space.

Knowsbleed33
I also heard a theory that it was an amped up Juggernaut since red is Cyttoraks signature color.

It's a weak theory.

Dark-Jaxx
I think it's a reincarnation of Sammy the Squidboy. That fvcker was a badass.

It might have been someone in the military that hates the hulk and also has a lot of historic knowledge in the Marvel Universe seeing that mentioned a lot of past events and all this other junk damn I forgot what else made me suspect that damn I'll be back when I remember damn.

Shouldn't Rulk have just one eye, if it was Nick Fury?
Maybe that's too obvious a clue.
I'm more interested in what his power source is, since he can shrug off a hit by mjolnir like it was nothing, which Hulk could never do.
This idea of WWH splitting into two beings - that goes back to to the days of Red & Blue Superman.

Knowsbleed33
Maybe it is Onslaught then. Loeb has ties to Onslaught, Onslaught has reason to have a beef with Hulk and he's the evil aspect of Xavier which might explain the X.

Takion
Probably. Onslaught could actually have merged with something or someone...

Onslaught's not the kind of character to put up with such a charade... he's far too arrogant and self-loving.

also, he's not as strong as Hulk big grin

dunno,
I don't see anything as complex being behind this whole Red Hulk mystery.

Samson seems an obvious false lead, but whoever it is must be known to SHIELD, in their non-Hulk guise as the ID scanner recognised Red Hulk.

Miek would be a nice 'closure' to the WWH sub-plot of Miek being King Hulk's pupil and learning all the "wrong lessons" from Hulk's conduct. the hatred would definitely be in character, though the cunning does seem a bit beyond Miek's rudimentary thought process.


I'm beginning to suspect that Red Hulk may actually be some clone of Hulk made by SHIELD or someone, maybe a variation on Hulk using his DNA...

Knowsbleed33
Hulk never did to Juggernaut what Onslaught did.

it's gotta be samson. I mean he has been around the hulk for a long time hence "ruining everyone's lives". He has had previous exposure to gamma. has good fighting abilities, can get into military base, knows stuff bout shield, and knows thor rather thorough. It's either that or Talbot who never really died

Another clue might be what Rulk said to Hulk in #4. About how he's ruined peoples lives and went to war on the world stuff.

...I now have the (possible) long-sought answer to my question that no one could answer before: what would happen if Mjolnir was in space, weightless; though frankly I am surprised at this outcome. Considering how often Thor has been in space, I'd've figured Odin had some contingency plan to prevent loss of control (though Thor did mention something about his "Father's absence"wink.

Here's an idea: Odin's dead, right? So maybe the enchantment wore off when he died. Thor doesn't realize that he has to set it up himself now to get it to work

I think that originally they didnt intend for that but later will fall back on it similarly to how they basicly removed several of WWH's feats by making them not count later (BB really being a skrull, Ironman injecting blanks, etc)

But wasn't that BB a Superskrull with the powers of all the Illuminati? I'd think King Hulk whooping that is more impressive then whooping regular Black Bolt.

Yeah, people have to remember that whoever Rulk is, he had access to Gamma Base. That weeds out a lot of the more abstract guesses.

But Onslaught in his current form could've possessed Samson. I agree Samson is the most logical answer, I just don't see his motives.

Samson is just a red herring. He's waaaay too obviously Rulk to actually be Rulk.

Doesn't fit. Odin has been dead for a long time now and the enchantment has never failed before.

An the zero gravity excuse doesn't account for the lightning coming from the hammer when Hulk picks it up as that would only appear if someone was deemed worthy and actually possessed Thor's powers.

Maybe the enchantment merely prevents those unworthy from lifting it up. But if you manage to lift it up, you can use it. Or maybe the very nature of Mjolnir impacting against Thor created a reaction that resulted in crackling lightning. Either works. The herald Airwalker and Mad Thinker's Awesome Android both picked up Mjolnir also and used it against Thor. I don't know if there was crackling lightning though.

Iron Man has also carried Mjolnir in space long before this incident. He was carrying it to a ship I think, and when Mjolnir felt the slight gravity of the ship, the enchantment returned and trapped Iron Man's arm underneath the handle. As long as there is the slightest bit of gravity, the enchantment sticks. Drax and Thor were fighting in outer space in orbit around the Goddess' world in Infinity War. They were both standing on a very very small asteroid, like smaller than a house's rooftop. When Drax went to pick it up, he couldn't. Even with the Power Gem.

Kinda disappointing.Thor may have been weakned from the restoring of all the Asgardians and the rebuilt of Asgard itself, but Red Hulk can't be nowhere near his power levels.Thor still possess the Odin Power, and all he did was just punching and hammering, and also he was scared sometimes.This Red Hulk bull.sh.it has jumped the shark.Punching out a Watcher, what's gonna happen next, he'll take out Galactus and The Celestials in a slugfest?
Someone who has access to the gammabase and has been mutated into a Hulk, cannot just be above Thor after the reboot of the Thunder God series, and Uatu, could've blinked Red Hulk out of existence, Watchers are cosmic beings, Loeb is becoming ridicoulus.

Samson just doesn't seem right.. I can't put my finger on why.. wouldn't Rulk have his green hair? Wouldn't he display more knowledge on how the human mind works, and thus how predictable his enemies are or something? also, he said "you've never had a friend like me before".
I just have a hunch that it's Glenn Talbot, no idea why. Nick Fury was a good idea, the gamma powers would heal his eye up.
Also, is that KING thor he's beating up? Like, with the odinforce? ****ing hell.

Samson just doesn't seem right.. I can't put my finger on why.. wouldn't Rulk have his green hair? Wouldn't he display more knowledge on how the human mind works, and thus how predictable his enemies are or something? also, he said "you've never had a friend like me before".
I just have a hunch that it's Glenn Talbot, no idea why. Nick Fury was a good idea, the gamma powers would heal his eye up.
Also, is that KING thor he's beating up? Like, with the odinforce? ****ing hell.
Yeah but in the next issue, its all going to be explained otherwise I quit on posting scans in this respect thread no expression

Disappear
onslaught and beyonder both don't make sense. beyonder's "recent appearance in a story arc" was in the illuminati series where they revealed him as an eternal mutant or some such. onslaught, though, that's just completely out of left field. just because there was an x on his face? onslaught was recently dealt with in loeb's onslaught: reborn, too. it'd just be completely ridiculous.

i, too, doubt that it's samson, and given the what if..? where ross was the hulk, i doubt it's him ether. but anyone else at this point just doesn't make a lot of sense. i have a bad feeling that it's amadeus cho, despite him being in space and having no logical access to gamma base. just a feeling. wouldn't be the stupidest thing ever printed.

I don't know.. I'm still going to go with my talbot hunch.

look in "the incredible hulk respect thread" the real,i upload preview for hulk 7 and 8..................

Pyron_Knight
It's Carnage.
Cletus is back for revenge.

Safeguard
No disrespect.

But how could Cletus bypass SHIELD computers and delete all the info about the Hulk??

I doubt he's that smart.

Pyron_Knight
I was joking.
Cletus is a lot of things but intelligent is not one of them.

beast1234
they a lot of accesion that red hulk is ares it could be true since red is ares signature colour(logic and statistics 20-40%).

jalek moye
does ares have access to shield and use guns

allen4
is not Ares,is both samson and Ross fusion,ryker,or emil blonsky himself...............

jalek moye
or some random shield agents who has been behind the scenes most of his carreeer

Euh might I add that while rulk was fighting the hulk, thor threw his hammer in rulks face.
And thor just started the beat on Rulk, sure he was beating him and would win if hulk didn't step in even A-bomb admitted by saying thor is a god and a great warrior he did explained that it was hulks fight.
Wen the hulk took over again rulk pretty much got over the beating thor gave him and seemed to win, Wen thor tried to get take over again.
A-bomb said that hulk was getting stronger while it looked like rulk was beating hulk again hulk didn't even fight back, you can see Rulk say to hulk to fight back, at the end rulk was burning out so it took one punch from the angry hulk to take it.

psycho gundam
i guess this belongs here.

@ the end of hulk # 6, A-bomb reverts back to rick jones and then gets shot in the back by samson... with long hair, shirtless and wearing torn pants. he says:

samson (holding gun) - " you can't be telling secrets rick. it's not in your future, it's not in your destiny.(now dragging him away) we're going to have to fix that".

just when that looks like concrete evidence, in the next panel in shows red hulk still on his back ko'd with ross standing over him telling him

ross - "and you, we gave you everything you needed to destroy that green monster. every thing. and still you failed us. and worse, you failed yourself. your on your own now".

he then walks away.

in the next panel it shows red quickly waking up with a mad face like was not really ko'd and listening to ross telling him he was a failure.

looks like it's all a big cover up created by the gamma base. i think there are TWO red hulks, samson and talbot.

what makes you think that there are 2

samson was wearing torn black pants just like the ones red hulk wears, and he was using a gun. his hair was long again also. long hair on samson = more power.

he was standing near red hulk but he looks to me like he is a candidate for the guy also. maybe not two rulks but something is fishy with samson.

Rulk just flew through Dormammu's head. Then told him he couldn't get out of his dimension. So at most he just annoyed him.

Hulk's gonna be beating him soon either him or Skaar

since all this is just leading up to World War Hulks

psycho gundam
expect a huge upgrade when the hulk return inevitably, a lot of clue are pointing to that imo.

for example, his daughter lyra said that gamma radiation is ambient all over the place and she can absorb it just by focusing on it, the hulk should be able to do the same. green scar hulk was able to focus his rage so it's not an alien concept to him, he just has to change his focus to absorption i guess.

also, red hulk said that banner was always in control of the hulk. as we know the hulk is dampened by banner's mind subconsciously keeping his power anchored somewhat. if banner focuses himself in order to stop holding the hulk back so much, he'd probably mop the floor with the red hulk.

jalek moye
Maybe he'll return in his Green scar mode abkle to switch back and forth when he wants to.

I never noticed that красная thing before, that means Rulk is a girl. It makes no sense, but it explains why Thundra teamed up with her and the love comment at the end of the Offenders arch. So I guess this is a girl who turn into a guy? Should we call her Ranma?

Really it would be an interesting twist if Rulk was a girl but I doubt Loeb actually thought of something like that, he probably just botched the translation.
