Inthe third story in the issue, with his will sapped by the hypnotic Ringmaster, Rick summons the Hulk by mental control, and the green goliath comes in response. Here again, that third panel looks like a flying pose to my eye, rather than a leap.

Flying/leaping from AVENGERS #2. On both Pages 8 & 10 it looks as though Lee has had a bounce trail added into what was clearly intended to be a standing take-off. Same thing with that last panel on Page 11, where Iron Man and the Hulk soar towards one another.


Great analysis. I was shocked to have my older cousin tell me that the hulk could fly originally, until I read these issues for myself. Good research on this, Tom. Please submit this to the Jack Kirby Collector mag.

The Incredible Hulk is a character created by writer Stan Lee and artist Jack Kirby in 1962, in response from fans who indicated that their favorite character was the Thing (Lee also created the Fantastic Four). So he wanted to make a character similar to him.


The Hulk's first series was called The Incredible Hulk. The series was only six issues. After that, the Hulk guested on other characters' comics until he was in the anthology superhero series Tales to Astonish. It only had the Hulk for half of each issue, then featured another superhero. Then Tales to Astonish became The Incredible Hulk in 1968. The Hulk is the most powerful Marvel character.[1]


Robert Bruce Banner was born to Dr. Brian Banner and his wife Rebecca. Although Rebecca deeply loved Bruce, who returned her affection, Brian hated their child and was driven by an insane jealousy of Bruce for being an object of Rebecca's love. Further, Brian believed that his radiation work had altered his DNA and given him a mutant son, when actually, Bruce was just a very gifted and intelligent child. Brian then abused Bruce and finally murdered Rebecca, then was placed in a mental hospital. After that, Bruce was raised by his aunt and father's sister, Susan Banner, who understood his great pain and rage over his childhood sufferings thanks to his crazed father, and raised him with love and care as if he were her own child.


Eventually when Bruce became an adult, he was an American theoretical physicist, famed for his work into the studies of nuclear physics and gamma radiation. He was recruited by General Thaddeus "Thunderbolt" Ross and the US Army to develop the first Gamma Bomb, which would use gamma radiation to target enemy weapons and buildings without endangering human lives. At least, that's what Bruce was told. During its first live test, Bruce noticed a teenager named Rick Jones driving into the testing grounds on a dare. Bruce went and got Jones out, but the bomb went off and Bruce absorbed a massive amounts of gamma radiation. Bruce died, but the Gamma Bomb had created a metaphysical barrier called the Green Door that brought Bruce back to life. The Gamma Bomb also caused Bruce to alter his body from the gamma radiation, and awakened something inside of him: a raging spirit that dwelled within him since he was a child. Now, whenever Bruce is under a lot of stress (usually anger) he transforms into a giant green-skinned, vastly powerful monster that threatens all around him, known to many as "The Incredible Hulk".


The Hulk, however, managed to prove himself a hero when he became a part of the Avengers, the Defenders, S.M.A.S.H., S.H.I.E.L.D., and others. As a member of the Avengers, "Earth's Mightiest Heroes", Hulk helps smash the unimaginable threats that no hero could face alone, hoping to at least prove to the world that he is the strongest HERO there is. A founding Avenger, the afflicted Banner still suffers balancing the Hulk's existence as both hero and monster. The Hulk is the world's most tragic hero, and there's so much more to him than a "Hulk Smash".


The Hulk is one most powerful beings in the entire Marvel Universe since his powers increase with his rage, because of that he is capable of matching the power of beings like Thor and severely overpowering beings such as Silver Surfer, the Hulk is able to go far beyond universal levels of power, perhaps at his best, Multiversal feats.


Bruce Banner has always suppressed the Hulk and his power. In fact, Worldbreaker Hulk is the result of Bruce relinquishing that control entirely to truly let the Hulk fight to the best of his power and ability. Amadeus Cho stated if the Hulk loses control, nothing can stop him, including Hercules. As the Worldbreaker, the Hulk, however, is far more powerful than Arm'Cheddon, who is comparable or more powerful than Silver Surfer, Hulk didn't struggle to defeat him. Worldbreaker Hulk is a cunning and an expert strategist that can easily come up with the most elaborate strategies. Worldbreaker Hulk is more powerful version than the previous incarnations. The Worldbreaker is not a separate form or personality, but the full power of Green Scar Hulk, and was able to lay waste to legions of heroes all at once.


Despite the fact that there have been many incarnations of the hulk, the one thing that almost never changes is the hatred Hulk and Banner have for each other. The Banner/Hulk relationship is a lot like Dr. Jekyll's/Mr. Hyde's. it revolves around The good vs bad, Order vs Chaos concept, however, Banner and The Hulk has a far more intriguing connection in comparison to Dr. Jekyll/Mr. Hyde. The main difference is that Hulk is not a bad guy, he is not the villain, he is misunderstood, and in fact, when given the chance, he has done the right thing many numerous occasions. Hulk's hatred for Banner was manifested when Banner's mother died at the hand of their father, Brain Banner. Hulk acknowledges the fact that he and Banner are one and the same, hence he blames Banner for being weak and not being able to defend their dear "Mommy", and as any kid would traditionally do, Hulk blames a part of the incident on himself, and so he takes his anger out on Bruce, same way his father did to him out of fear. Their relationship can also be considered ironic, seeing as how a small frail intelligent man gets turned into a green behemoth who is potentially one of the strongest beings on earth. But there are more to Banner that meets the eye, Banner represents will, because he is in charge of controlling a very powerful being. despite no being physically weak, Banner the strongest when it comes to inner strength of the mind, because even though Banner had taken hell as a child and still managed to turn out relatively normal. Hulk on the other hand is not Banner's dark side (that would be Devil Hulk), he represents many aspects of Bruce, the traditional Savage Hulk represents Banner's angry child self who was abused by his father, he is very strong due to the fact that most kids view themselves sometimes as an unstoppable force, while the Grey Hulk represents the wild teenager Banner never got to be. Banner and Hulk have cooperated before, but no matter how hard they try they still seem to hate each other. Over the years Banner has learned to use Hulk sometimes as a weapon, in fact, most recently, Banner has joined shield because he has some unknown plans of his own, so instead of a gamma bomb, Hulk will be more like a targeted UMD.


They seemed to learn to accept each other in a series that's not too old, after they had been separated completely. Banner turned insane without the Hulk, and they both later learned that they both need each other.
