He's always been a MAJOR badass.
I was already a longtime fan of the original television series as well as the animated series from Saturday mornings on NBC long before i ever layed eyes on a Hulk comic book. Although i bought the series regularly as a child it wasn't until Peter David's excellent run on the series that i became a true fan of the comic. The stories he wrote opened up new variations on the Hulk and Bruce Banner that no one had ever been able of successfully accomplishing. The psychological elements he introduced between Banner and the Hulk were great analogies to problems we all face with our emotions.
The latest writer on the title is Bruce Jones and is definitely a refreshing breath of fresh air. Jones has taken ownership of the Hulk and, just like Peter David, has given the book a fresh spin that makes the reader hungry for each additional story. It's definitely something worth checking out.
