Hulk #1 by Donny Cates and Ryan Ottley began by asking a question of the Hulk and Bruce Banner.

And asking what if Bruce Banner wasn't controlling the Hulk, but the Hulk was protecting the world from Bruce Banner.

And it's something the letters column picks up on, with Donny Cates emphasising its importance.

Hulk #3 also shows us a parallel world in which the Gamma Bomb experiment went swimmingly. There was no Russian attempt to subvert it.

But rather than limitless free energy, the power was used in other ways.

With Bruce Banner quoting Doctor Robert Oppenheimer as he witnessed the first detonation of a nuclear weapon on the 16th of July, 1945, a piece of Hindu scripture from the Bhagavad-Gita, "Now I am become Death, the destroyer of worlds".

And the very existence of the Hulk, apparently, stopped this from happening on the 616… and much more besides. Of course, if you are wanting something a little lighter…

…the new She-Hulk #1 has you covered. Even if she isn't.

Check out that zip-a-tone/Ben-Day dot approximations. A return to a fair few John Byrne-isms as well.
