hmm, definitely hope it's not Rick Jones or anyone else other than Bruce as The Hulk.
it's not the same character if he lacks the history and persona(s) of Bruce-Hulk.
why is Bruce drawn as such a wimp there, he looks utterly devoid of any muscle... I preferred the way he was drawn during Planet Hulk/WWH.

well to be honest bruce is wimpy so that his alter ego the hulk can have msucles and be the opposite of what he is strong/brute
howver bruce alys had really slim/slender physique a four or six pac abs at least
it's this image I vividly recall of Bruce in Hulk's armour, during Planet Hulk that is pretty much the way I see him.
also, when Bruce punched Abomination into the air during their last battle, that's also a good rendition.
this ultra-meekness, is just too extreme, it makes him look like a loser and rather feeble, instead of a guy with such a strong determination that he's kept The Hulk's awesome powers in check all these years.
well, that's if the Hulk isn't actually just some aspect of Banner-Hulk, wandering loose outside, whilst Banner(-Hulk?) meditates in prison.
could just be a rehash of the Heroes Reborn Hulk split, sadly.
I don't see a positive way for this RedHulk stuff to go, other than for Banner-Hulk to be the RedHulk somehow. it would be monumentally lame if someone other than Banner was the RedHulk.
JL: Now, the question... During 'Planet Hulk', you alluded that the Jade Giant had begun to explore a new level of mastery over his physiology. Specifically, it was noted that he had developed the ability to "allow" himself to be harmed, sometimes only for dramatic effect -- such as when he let the spears and swords of his warring comrades pierce his skin to provide a shocking sight for them. Or for more benevolent purposes, such as allowing the spikes to feed from his body.
So, the question is, is that ability in any way tied to the Hulk "allowing" Iron-Man's satellites to defeat him at the end of 'World War Hulk'? Meaning, was his participation in that outcome deeper than merely 'standing there' and letting himself be zapped? Did he, in fact, allow the satellite's rays to harm him? Or would they have had that effect even against his will?
GP: The Hulk clearly provides Iron Man the time he needs to unleash the satellites when he shouts, "Do it. Before I break the world!" And holding back his own insane rage implies the Hulk is suppressing his own power at that instant -- which presumably means he’s keeping himself from his full Worldbreaker potential when the satellites hit. Now the exact power and effect the combination of rays of those satellites hasn’t yet been revealed, so it’s possible that they could have taken out the Hulk even if the Hulk hadn’t been holding the door open. But without the Hulk’s pause, Iron Man seems unlikely to have been able to unleash the satellites in time. In short, I’d say it’s pretty safe to say that no one could have stopped the Hulk at the end of "World War Hulk" if the Hulk hadn't wanted to be stopped.

Yes, we know you're desperate.
