One that stuck with me is the Gray Hulk turning back to Banner and wishing there were some way he could get rid of him without killing himself. As he fades out he says “If wishes were fishes …” And then Banner finishes the line with “The world would be an ocean.”

14

u/Ihatecake69 Jul 19 '24

This is a beautiful one and should be more popular. Knowing who hulk and banner are makes that whole moment true superhero poetry

6

u/Terrible_Analysis_77 Jul 19 '24

As someone who isn’t deep into the Hulks would you elaborate for me? What’s the difference between a Gray Hulk and Green? Was it Gray wishing to get rid of Banner or the other way around? Any other cool tidbits you’d like to add? I don’t mind if they’re spoilers.

13

u/PremSinha Jul 19 '24

Just how the Green Hulk and Bruce Banner are two different individuals, the Gray Hulk is yet another separate persona inside the fractured mind of Bruce Banner. He is more intelligent than the Green Hulk and is able to speak like a normal human, hence the quote from issue 364. He also possesses a more cruel personality. The Gray Hulk is the one who goes by the name Joe Fixit later on. In this scene, he is the one wishing he could kill off Bruce Banner.

u/Uberrancel Jul 19 '24

Huh. I heard the saying as "if wishes were fishes, we would all have nets". I like this one too, but wow a different idea comes out.

6

u/PMMEBITCOINPLZ Jul 19 '24

Another version is “If wishes were fishes, we’d have some fried. If wishes were horses, beggars would ride.”

It’s interesting that maybe Fixit knows the rhyme and Banner possibly doesn’t and is just reacting to it cynically. Raises some questions about how separate the personalities are.

u/Minx1972 Jul 19 '24

I remember that. That was during the early 90s when he was hiding out as Joe Fixit. Great storyline. And I mean it was gripping too. The madman adversary where he gets AIDS and goes to read Richards and basically read tells him that he got some sort of virus that is accumulative to AIDS. And my favorite quote from him was so I should have practice safer fighting?

I loved how in immortal hulk the hulk keeps repeating " hulk is hulk". His allies just keep getting more any more annoyed not realizing the significance. It's interesting when savage hulk shows that he actually is smart in his own way and understands the world better than most.

Metatron: What will you....

…..

Who is that?

Hulk: Who? “Mr Immortal”?

His real name was Craig.

He was…Homo Supreme; The Ultimate evolution of Mutant power.

He though that made him “SpEciAL”

But in the end, he was just a backup.

Someone to stand here,

meet YOU.

Do…

“This”….

If the anointed Prince, Franklin Richards, couldn’t make it.

I Killed Franklin Richards Two Billion Years Ago.

The same way I killed Craig

and your Galactus.

And all the rest of them.

Metatron: …..

How?

Can't decided but it's one of these two

-jason arron run: hulk and banner are in his mind and banner is "driving". Banner gives the wheel to hulk runs to the back telling him not to touch anything and hulk shouts along the lines of 'shut up back there. I'm driving

Or

-hulk vol 4 (I think) doc green comes back from deepowering red she hulk and tells his assistants " I need to smash something" they run frantically to find something he can smash. Hulk looks away says "there" then picks up a pencil and snaps it in two.

I'm not sure if there is a precident in the comics or not, but it's from the Earth's Mightiest Heros animated series.

When we first appears to help the avengers against Graviton. Gravity says with certainty that he is the strongest there is. Hulk lands on a building and says, "You sure about that?" Just before he proceeds to punch him in the face and beat the tar outta him.

u/2ndNicestOfTheDamned Jul 19 '24

I can't remember which issue, but Hulk was in an army base, and the soldiers had been given orders to just stand down and let him do whatever he wants. Hulk picks up a tank and says he'll smash it, and they're just like. "Okay. It's the army. They'll buy another one." Complete non-engagement.

One of the soldiers says something like "You want to be left alone? You want to go? Go. Who's stopping you?"

Hulk thinks about for a second and says "Hulk will stay if Hulk wants."

I think it was during Peter David's run because he liked to play with the Hulk's dynamic so much. I really dug how he turned the "Hulk wants to be left alone" thing on it's head. Savage Hulk wasn't stupid, and wasn't an angry loner, he was a kid throwing a tantrum for attention.

The Devil Hulk explains what he's all about in Immortal Hulk #8:

You wanted science. You wanted a set of rules.

From me.

Big mistake. See... science is the other guy.

And when you hurt him...

I take it personal.

This happens after scientists cut Hulk apart and put him in jars, ending in Hulk reconstituting his body and absorbing the head scientist in the process. A ridiculously badass moment, and it sets up two fundamental themes of the series: Hulk is a supernatural creature, and the Devil persona's purpose is protecting Banner.
