@@AngelusNielson I don’t think this is true. He’s generally green. It’s very infrequent that he’s presented as grey. And his anger isn’t tied to being grey.
Hulk is Iron Fist?! Tony is Dead?! How did Human Torch joined the team? What's going to happen now? I'm getting more hyped for future of The Ultimates.
Human Torch was added to the team in a side comic, basically they went to a hero museum, beat up some hand agents, and then charged the Human Torch and he joined the team
@thamnas9790 I'm going to double check but I think it was the Ultimate universe free comic book day issue I checked, it is. It's on Marvel Unlimited if you have the app
I think it has more to do with it being less predictable. I don't know what happens next but right now I could believe that Ironlad remains dead, in the main story he would come back in the future 100% of the time
Actually, the Prime 616 got there first with the Green Scar Hulk and then later with the Doc Green incarnation who was trained by Iron Fist and learned how to channel the Iron Fist.
Ultimate Hulk reminds me a lot of Solomon David from Kill Six Billion Demons. Even Hulk’s motto “Peace Through Strength” is similar to David’s “Reach Heaven Through Violence”, not to mention how they both fight with similarly named moves as well!
The Fact that the Hulk is basically the leader of the Immortal Weapons & the call backs to demon slayer upper moon/Harashin(Demon Slayer Corps) is amazing also these Immortal Weapon are composite characters of Gamma Irradiated Beings and Canonical Marvel Villains that were small time ala Blob & Lady Deathstrike
Could have sworm that in original sin that Stark was JELAOUS of Banner who's project was accurate and correct but he was being urged to make it a weapon and Bruce refused but TONY tampered, and it went wrong causing an explosion and Bruce's becoming the hulk.
Yes and no, it wasn’t jealously and it was always intended to be a weapon, he was literally building a bomb for the military. And it was the dumbest plot point known to man kind which is why they quickly forgot about it considering it was Rick Jones fault for being there and getting Banner caught in the blast, if Rick wasn’t around what Tony did wouldn’t have affected anyone.
It was revealed in that same plot line that Tony tinkered with the bomb to make the payload smaller. If Tony hadn’t tinkered with it Bruce would have died
In original Sin, it’s not just that Tony messed with the bomb: it was going to end up killing everyone (I think the payload was too high) so he modified it to be less powerful, thus creating the hulk and not outright killing banner
This was such a wild read, I love how I can always come back to Rob's video's and he will always further explain things I probably missed reading the newest issue of anything! Thanks for everything you do Rob

@@AngelusNielson as a guy who has severe ADHD, is the same age as Rob, and is a massive comic book nerd, I can confirm this phenomena 😅 Also, man, lemme tell ya something! Son, son, son! (I couldn't help adding that, sorry, lol)
@@AxelordSMIJES This channel continuously makes me smile. It's so cool to see such joy and enthusiasm. (Though to be fair, his crapping on certain characters does get old. But again, that's just part of the passion isn't it?)
Around 8.20 :" they (Avengers) are unified under his BANnEr" - then smashed by mr. Baner himself hahaha Rob maybe you didnt see your own perfect joke there but it got me now haha
I wouldn't say all characters are more interesting in their ultimate universe, Ewing's Immortal Thor and Cates's more horror oriented run on the Hulk are still fantastic.
I really like the new iterations of Hulk/She-Hulk here. Hopefully Marvel comics has always had trouble figuring out compelling stories to tell with the Original She-Hulk, I'm hoping things are *DIFFERENT* this time around.... 🧐
Hey man, just subscribed. Glad I found your channel, cause I love comic book story lines but I hate readin them for some reason I just don’t like the format. So love the breakdowns appreciate it man, also thanks for organizin videos into playlists so I can go through a whole story line in one sitting❤️😂
Mindless strength is one thing but knowing how to use it is catastrophic. Being iron fist isn't just about having it, it's also being a martial arts expert 10 times over. If he wanted to he could take over the whole world with little standing in his way.
Problem is, again, here is a writer who just decides that the Hulk is now more powerful than Thanos and that somehow he knew the Ultimattes would attempt to break in at that exact moment AND he would have his crew (and tea) all ready for them. Now I have no problem with him killing Iron Lad (despite the fact isn't there some rules regarding killing in Heaven?) but this is the Ultimattes - they don't hold back either and yet except for Janet, no one is able to injure any of Hulk's crew?
So this is what would happen if Iron Fist ever went Hulked out you get the immortal power of the iron fist combined with the gamma indestructible fury of the Incredible Hulk... Yep the ultimate are screwed.
i agree 100% about the ultimate universe being more interesting than the main universe! i used to love reading the What If series of comics and this right here hits that sweet spot for me! after growing up with comics for 40 years its almost childs play to think about what happens when main marvel characters interact with each other. whats canon is hard to reignite the imagination. ultimates make things fresh again and its not as predictable!❤❤❤❤❤
11:09 Rob. Glad you started getting some anime under your belt. Certain crossovers in the future will be inevitable. TMNT already linked with Naruto. Both Invincible & Goku level up after getting their a**es handed to them. 🤷♂️
We're only six issues in and he's basically the main character of the verse. He's not dead. I remember reading this and it's insane. So they pull up on Banner and as soon as She-Hulk gets sent flying into the sky (with the force of a nuke), I knew they were getting packed up. Thor, arguably the strongest person on the team, didn't get any action in and spent most the time doing nothing. Even Ant Man and Wasp got some good scenes (previous Ultimate universe callback). Thank God Doom stayed at home, or the team would have died. I predict that this will lead to Tony getting is Arc Reactor life support system.
i think they are gonna stick with his death and he will become like jarvis, saving his brain to become a full on artificial intelligence, doing a bait and switch with deaths this early would be a detriment to the universe
Imagine if they needed Ultimate Wolverine to fight the Iron Hulk. Maybe have Logan be a martial arts master himself with a nearly indestructible defense. Have them be the unstoppable vs the immovable by having Hulk's Iron Fist abilities tested by Wolverine and vice versa.
Nah man, it would be so cool to be having tea with the Hulk and just be talking about life. I feel like Hulk would be a great therapist, depending on the version.
As far as I'm aware, this Hulk is only ever referred to as Banner, never Bruce . So it's my headcanon that this is actually Robert Banner (Bruce's dad) because this feels like his brutality here
It's only a matter of time. There is 1. Just 1. And we all know who the BEST exemplary character of marvel is who was NOT in this assault. Wielding Cap's shield, Mjolnir, Stark tech suit to take out the last avenger.
For the uninitiated, in immortal iron fist and it's subsequent lore; chi attacks are always named, it's part of the discipline. For the hulk to combine this innately, with scientific knowledge is not a similarity to demon slayer alone. But actually, thoroughly precise dialogue from competent marvel writers.
The reason why these alternative universe stories are better because the writers have a lot of space to create new ideas. It will be pretty hard to pull all of this in the main continuity without having to retcon everything.
To steal a line from a comic aficionado, "Son, son,..when you narrate a comic, you better come strong." And that means not with the "Koon Loon". Ha, I actually had to smile when I typed it out.
I don't like what-if stories or alternate universes because they often times do odd shit just to shock the reader. "Oh what if all the heroes are nazis and only aliens are heroes?!" Like you can mkae regular Marvel and DC fun to read. I would just make it so all the stories are epic and the consequences of those stories stick. Don't reset or reboot ever. If Someone dies they die. No clone. No rez.
Hulk with martial arts training is BEYOND BROKEN
Tbh I feel like 616 hulk is basically yugiro he doesn't need to know martial arts when you can overpower techniques
The Ultimate Hulk talks as much as traditional Hulk gets angry.... The more you fight him, the talkier he becomes.
I guess being enlightened comes with a lot of fortune cookie wisdom. I’m sure he’s glad to be able to make a speech, just as much as he is to open the brewery of Kick-Ass he just unleashed upon them lol
@cryojudgement2376 😆 fortune cookie wisdom
That is much better than the "exposition dump via spiritual jargon" that came to my mind
I like that hulk Asian lady straps on her chest.

No one seemed to notice that at 7:31 Rob said "Crane Mother of the Womb" when it was "Crane Mother of the Bomb" 😂😭😭
shoulda said Crane Mother of the Boom
He also said they all have the names of the immortal weapons.
He's not reading the book. He's recalling it during his recordings.

I did lol
"Fist of the Gamma Star"
Nice 😎
"Omae wa mou shindeiru."
"Nani?!"
That's so awesome. Never thought I'd see Hokuto no Ken referenced in Marvel these days.
@@TheLordofChampions actually, Marvel is full of anime references this days
4:15 I appreciate the grey tone of this hulk, as if to show his toned done anger and increased control by having a similar color palate to Joe Fix-it.
The Hulk was originally imagined as grey, and intended to be grey.
@@arc7375 That doesn't negate that often the less anger-driven versions of the character are gray.
Also he was grey in the original Ultimate universe
@@AngelusNielson I don’t think this is true. He’s generally green. It’s very infrequent that he’s presented as grey. And his anger isn’t tied to being grey.

Hulk having the power of the iron fist is something I didn't know I needed until now.
She-Hulk: "I can take you."

The reason these new universes are doing better than the main universe is because they are changing that dumb status quo

8:46 You just worded it in a way that woke up the brain sir. Peter may end up leading The Ultimates.
If it’s Peter Parker you’re mentioning, that would be insane for him to lead the team with ultimate Cap.
@ An experienced Peter would make for a better leader. Spider-Man is like Nightwing to Cap’s Batman in that respect.
@ I agree dude! There was an issue from the new 52 were Batman told him he’s going to lead the league one day.
