Avengers vs. X-Men Teaser.... It's Emma Frost vs....

[shadowpsykie]

Holy shit....

this... hmm i honestly don't know which way this will go...it will be a true test of Emma's physical strength... and maybe Hulk's mental resistance... (has he rejoined with Banner yet?)

either way... other than Storm and Thor i am REALLY looking foward to this.

also have to say, other than where did her boots go, i am liking that version of her costume....

"(has he rejoined with Banner yet?)"

No--right now it seems like Banner's going a little nutty over not having the power of Hulk and is trying to recreate it, while Hulk is being recruited by a government agency to track down mad scientists, leading a team of creatures affected by them, and Banner is their first mark.

[shadowpsykie]

yeah... i am not sure how i feel about that turn.... the art looks great... but he did FINE without the Hulk before.... that turn ... does not amuse me...

[darkknightjrk]

Yeah, but it also makes sense considering what they've done in recent stories (I think Pak made the line that "The Hulk was created to protect the world from Banner"). I just hope they complicate things a bit by not making Bruce the complete bad guy. But, if anyone can do flawed heroes, it's Jason Aaron.

[shadowpsykie]

i will still give it a chance... its just... mad scientist (stereotypical mad scientist at that!) just does not suit Bruce IMHO.... I hope that A part of Bruce's ID is what actually broke off and that the other parts of his min are in the Hulk....

The Hulk was created to protect the world from Banner"

Where was that?

[darkknightjrk]

I think it was shortly after World War Hulk when Hulk went dorment and Banner was trying to help out Skaar to be a better fighter when Hulk returned. Something like that. It was during the Loeb era, and I avoided it whenever I could.

[thehood]

No, it wasn't Loeb. It was from Greg Pak's Hulk book. He wrote the Banner and Skaar stories and they were excellent.

[darkknightjrk]

I know, but it was during the time when Loeb's Hulk book was the leader of things.

More specifically than what darkknightjrk said it was said by Banner in a crossover issue with Daken and Wolverine, to parallel how both Bruce and Logan suck at parenting.

I like mad scientist Banner alot. Bruce was never normal nor sane and made WMDs for a living. He may have been a very good person generally but he has always been a unstable genius.

Then again mad scentists are one of my favorite things so I may be biased.

[shadowpsykie]

ummmm as far as i know... didn't he start out trying to make humanitarian discoveries and his work was reapropriated by the military?... i could be wrong... there have been several different origins....

but Mad Scientist (stereotypical at that) was never one of them i think...

We first meet Banner when he's working on the Gamma Bomb project specifically, for what that's worth.

[eyz]

Awww...then I'll guess I'll wait until that :/
