Yes, in the beginning. He remarks that he was assaulted by energies never seen and that they were something else. There’s no denying that the Heroes Reborn universe is different.
That was the point actually. The regular Hulk has failed to break the bands cast in this universe. The Hulk born of the HR energies shattered them.
That could just be a matter of stronger energies. I don’t see anything to indicate that the energies negated anything. Just that the physics within the HR-universe are different.
We don't know what kind of enbergy it was. It was likely a combination of many types. But the significance is that it was a strange energy from another universe. When Strange tried to use the Eye of Agomotto this energy zapped him through the Eye itself. When he tried to approach the Hulk it blocked his spells and stopped him. This energy did not merely increase Hulk's strength. It actively affected things around him, including magic.
When did the Hulk block his spells? Are you talking about the Bands? Because if there was any blocking at all, it was done by the difference in physics. The Eye also successfully scanned him without making him go through. so I don’t really understand what you’re talking about?
Dr. Strange commented that the energies made him stronger and stronger. That suggests a purely physical purpose of the energies. Also, the Hulk didn’t seem to influence anything or anyone in the following issues leading up to War. And he was pretty much glowing all the time.
Whatever this energy was, Apocalypse felt it would allow him to defeat the Celestials themselves. Just giving Hulk a boost in strength would do nothing to help against a Celestial.
Yeah, but it wasn’t just your average boost. And the energy may be sufficient, but that doesn't’t mean a brick like Hulk would be. He was literally testing the tech. I don’t think he had the means to use only Hulk to defeat the Celestials, do you?
