Marvel Storylines

Many Marvel fans would rank Bruce Banner, the Incredible Hulk, among their favorite characters, but the list of iconic Hulk storylines is surprisingly short. The strongest there is also happens to be one of the toughest for writers to get a handle on, and it&rsquo;s to find a consensus on what the best Hulk comics are. It does make sense; how does one take the most powerful being on Earth and make him relatable? Despite the challenge, a number of Marvel writers and artists over the years have combined to bring to life some of the best Hulk story arcs ever.

With a superheroic career lasting over half a century, the list of the Hulk&rsquo;s greatest adventures include trips through time, to far-off planets, the microscopic world, and <a href="https://www.ranker.com/list/immortal-hulk-storyline/tyler-mitchell" target="_blank">even to Hell and back</a>. No matter where he roams, the themes surrounding the jade giant are always the same&mdash;being angry, being misunderstood, and having the overwhelming desire to SMASH!

Marvel Comics

Greenskin. The Green Goliath. The Jade Giant. The Incredible Hulk has had a variety of nicknames over the years, but one thing has always come through in his various monikers:&nbsp;the Hulk is green. Most people, in fact, think he’s always been green. Ask the average person on the street what they know about the Hulk and&nbsp;“he’s green” will probably come up, along with &quot;get out of my face, nerd, I'm just trying to go to work.&quot; &nbsp;The color has been synonymous with the character pretty much since Hulk’s inception in 1962, and it's really one of Ol’ Jade Jaws’s most defining characteristics. But as any comic fan worth their poly-bagged, unopened copy of <a href="http://www.ranker.com/list/most-important-deaths-in-comic-history/ranker-comics">Superman v2 #75</a> knows, it hasn’t always been that way.One of the <a href="http://www.ranker.com/list/most-powerful-comic-book-characters-ranked/ranker-comics">most powerful comic book characters ever</a>, the Hulk has seen a multitude of changes since he was first conceived by <a class="edS-cl" href="https://www.ranker.com/list/dc-comics-stan-lee-parody/stephanroget?ref=internalCrossLinking_keyword">Stan Lee and Jack Kirby</a>, and some of those changes have been in coloring. You'd be hard-pressed to find someone who knows every color the Hulk has been; there are a few that only the most devoted comic book&nbsp;historians would know. Prepare to join those hallowed ranks and learn&nbsp;every color the Hulk has been over the course of comics history.

If there’s one thing that the Marvel Cinematic Universe wants audiences to know about the Hulk, it’s that he’s just a sensitive guy who caught a rough&nbsp;science break. That’s why Hulk comics compared to&nbsp;movies are completely different. Hulk’s comic book iterations stopped worrying about what people thought about Bruce Banner a long time ago and made a beeline for destruction.Some of the brutal moments in Hulk comics never made it into movies - often because they showed him <a href="http://www.ranker.com/list/most-violent-brutal-times-hulk-was-defeated/l-zane-pinnock">getting beaten down</a>&nbsp;and where's the fun (and <a class="edS-cl" href="https://www.ranker.com/list/movies-that-made-money-merchandising/jacob-shelton?ref=internalCrossLinking_keyword">box office money</a>) in watching the Hulk get smashed? He's supposed to do the smashing.&nbsp;In every Marvel movie featuring the Hulk, directors try to give a nod to the times when the Hulk was more brutal in comics than movies, but they never pull the trigger on letting the green guy go really nuts. Sure, he can fight a small army, but can he punch a guy’s head into liquid? Or clap his hands so hard that he destroys everything in a three-mile radius? He can in the comics, so why shouldn’t he do it in the movies? Keep reading below to see times when the Hulk did way more damage on a <a class="edS-cl" href="https://www.ranker.com/list/the-most-iconic-comic-book-splash-pages-ever/lee-kirby?ref=internalCrossLinking_keyword">comic book page</a> than a movie screen.

Some comic fans don’t have the time to keep up with modern continuity, and it’s easy to see why - the constant cycle of comic book deaths, resurrections, and&nbsp;<a href="http://www.ranker.com/list/times-marvel-has-changed-a-character-for-no-reason/ranker-comics" target="_blank">character changes</a> can make things rather difficult to follow.Fortunately, it is easy for fans to catch up with their&nbsp;<a href="http://www.ranker.com/crowdranked-list/top-marvel-comics-superheroes" target="_blank">favorite heroes</a>, but that doesn't mean the content won't shock them. Anyone trying to catch up on the Hulk’s story between the years 2016-2018 may be&nbsp;incredibly confused and full of questions, like&nbsp;&quot;Wait, Hawkeye killed the Hulk?&quot; and &quot;Oh, so the Hulk is immortal now?&quot;Now referred to as the Immortal&nbsp;Hulk, Bruce Banner comes&nbsp;out of his brief time in the afterlife a markedly different character. He’s still big, green, and angry, but there are other convoluted factors involved now, and any casual fan will appreciate a set of “Cliff’s Notes” to help them understand what’s going on.

In recent years, the Marvel Cinematic Universe incarnation of the Hulk has been used primarily for comedic effect, whether by throwing childlike&nbsp;tantrums in&nbsp;Thor: Ragnarok&nbsp;or by being surprisingly well-adjusted in&nbsp;Avengers: Endgame. But the pages of Al Ewing and Joe Bennett&#39;s&nbsp;<a href="https://www.ranker.com/list/the-hulk-is-immortal-now/stephanroget" target="_blank">Immortal Hulk</a>&nbsp;tell a far darker story. Ewing and Bennett have turned Bruce Banner&#39;s life into a horror story, and both fans and critics are absolutely loving it. The series has a 9.0 average rating on <a href="https://comicbookroundup.com/comic-books/reviews/marvel-comics/immortal-hulk" target="_blank">Comic Book Roundup</a>&nbsp;and was nominated for one of the prestigious <a href="https://www.hollywoodreporter.com/heat-vision/2019-eisner-nominees-complete-list-1205156" target="_blank">Eisner Awards</a>&nbsp;in 2019.

It&#39;s taken several shocking events to bring Banner and the Hulk to this dark place. Let&#39;s take a look at how Banner lost the Hulk persona, was slain by a friend, got resurrected against his will multiple times, and ran afoul of the mysterious &quot;One Below All,&quot; a being who resides in the lowest recesses of Hell itself.

Anyone who knows anything about any facet of the realm of comic book mythos knows one fact beyond any and all dispute:&nbsp;the Hulk is one of the baddest characters on the block. Most readers may not even remember&nbsp;times when Hulk was defeated.&nbsp;As one of the most recognizable faces in comics, Hulk stands among a very select cast of characters that for all intents and purposes, simply cannot be offed. In fact, one can very easily get squashed like a grape just for daring to try.

However, readers will come across rare instances when a villain (or fellow hero) manages to take down the Hulk. It should be noted that the Hulk has had many incarnations over the years, even alternate reality versions of the character, all with different power, intelligence and mortality levels. So, while it hasn&rsquo;t happened often, there have been several times Hulk was defeated.

Entertainment Franchises

The Incredible Hulk, though very popular, can't seem to hold onto a comic title or solo movie for very long. He's had titles restarted, actors recast, and has even been all sorts of different colors and temperaments. Nevertheless, he has one of the biggest cult followings in all of comics.As such, there are many different variations on the character and dozens of formats the character has been utilized in. Be it video games, films, animated series, or alternate versions of the man himself in comic books, The Hulk is in SO many forms of pop culture, in one way or another.We've decided to compile some of our favorites here. Do you like the Hulk in his own solo adventures or as part of a team? Do you like the classic Hulk or the newer, grayer Ultimate Hulk? Do you like Bruce Banner/The Incredible Hulk or Thunderbolt Ross/The Red Hulk? Are you an Edward Norton as Bruce Banner fan or is Mark Ruffalo your Hulk?Here's the chance to see where it all lines up. What are the greatest interpretations of Hulk ever? Vote up your favorites!

Bruce Banner might be the smartest Avenger, and the Hulk might very well be the strongest; unfortunately, all that power and intellect doesn&#39;t save him from being the butt of the joke. He made always be angry, but he&#39;s also always pretty clueless. Throughout his appearances in the Marvel Cinematic Universe,&nbsp;it seems he is always one step behind&nbsp;and trying to pick up on what he missed while he was, as he&#39;d like to say, the other guy. Whether it&#39;s Tony poking and prodding him during The Avengers,&nbsp;or Thor trying to calm down the Hulk in Thor: Ragnarok&nbsp;he&#39;s always at the end of a well placed punchline. To be honest, we love every minute of it. These are the best jokes made at Bruce Banner&#39;s expense in the MCU.&nbsp;

Performances

Ever wish you could turn into a giant green destroying machine whenever you got mad? For Bruce Banner, it's a blessing and a curse. As Marvel's version&nbsp;of Jekyll and Hyde, Bruce Banner and the Hulk are two sides of the same coin. Though both characters are the same person (technically speaking), their personalities couldn't be more different. For starters, Bruce Banner is a super smart scientist who always tries to solve problems using his brain, while Hulk, well, he just likes to smash stuff.It comes as no surprise to see how Bruce Banner and the Hulk are often played by two different actors. Whether they're smashing around the&nbsp;screen as Lou Ferrigno in live-action series The Incredible Hulk&nbsp;or playing tortured scientists like Edward Norton, Eric Bana, and Mark Ruffalo, there's no denying that the Hulk has a certain charm. Which version&nbsp;is your favorite?Vote up your favorite&nbsp;Hulk actors to see which version is truly is the strongest of them all.&nbsp;

He's Incredible!
