I think etrigan is kinda close to banner as well

Carver also wants his beloved character to be original.

Colossus. They both have super strength and they are Grey.

So he inspired Colossus and Hulk, cool. At least no versions of Hulk are grey right?

Hulk like Grundy an DD are gey. So i illustrated this point already.

Grund and DD have the biggest similarities, especially the lack of an alter ego and the resurrection.

What about Kismet being inspired by Eternity?

Doomsday and Hulk are the same character with nothing being different. With that said, I'm glad I added him to my list.

Hulk is definitely more of a Grundy ripoff, then Doomsday is a Hulk ripoff. Doomsday is an entirely different type of character, tbh.

But aside from those already mentioned:
-Deadpool/Deathstroke
-Deadshot/Bullseye
-Black-Cat/Catwoman
-Doctor Fate/Doctor Strange
-Green Arrow/Hawkeye
-Brainiac/Ultron
-Dick Grayson/Bucky Barnes
-Original Doom Patrol/Original X-Men
-Fantastic 4/Challengers of the Unknown
-Nova Corps/GLC
-Red Tornado/Vision

etc. etc.

Just thought of another:
-Solar, Man of the Atom(Gold Key)/Silver Surfer/Doctor Manhattan

Wasn't Surfer based on Black Racer (or the other way around?)

I remember reading that someplace but can't recall.


Black Racer came about 15 years later.

5D Imps/Beyonders

Grundy had and has adapting powers btw. and to my knowledge Grundy was an inspiration to Hulk.

If anything Doomsday shares more similarities with Grundy than Hulk. No alter ego, if he dies he comes back with adapted powers, design, color, super strength, invulnerability etc.

1962 First appearance, cover.

Solom Grundy first appeared 1944
Here a cover 2 years prior to the first appearance of Hulk.
Justice League of America (1960 1st Series)

Nothing bad being inspired by Grundy imo, Hulk has traits of Dr. Jekyll and Mr. Hyde too, so the twist is there.


How are these covers even similar? Because they both had blocky dated art?
I'm agreeing with Carver and BaV...

I don't see Hulk as much of a copy of Grundy.

...and throwing in that Grundy actually took on more Hulk qualities over the years, as DC writers were inspired by the Marvel character.

So much butt hurt in this thread

^^^So, Wednesday then.

I mean it is no shame if Hulk isn't an original character, but stop saying there is nothing different about Doomsday and Hulk.

Hell just the way their powers operate, Doomsday doesn't get stronger the angrier he gets, that is Hulk. He gets stronger by adapting and evolving to attacks that kill him. Sometimes he adapts to attacks on the fly. Hulk isn't known to suddenly gain a ranged attack if his opponent has one. He's also not thousands of years old. He's also not an alien.

What about Ego and Mogo?

Ego (1981) and Mogo (1985), different takes on the same concept. Likely someone at DC liked the sentient planet idea.

The classic X-Men/Doom Patrol conundrum...
