Well it ain't gonna be comic book canon... Here are some Details about THE HULK!

Hey folks, Harry here... Well... Um, I could get very anal and start screaming about how The Absorbing Man was a criminal in jail that the god of mischief LOKI enchanted named Crusher Creel. That his primary enemy of The Mighty Thor and that he absolutely positively was never even close to being related to Bruce Banner. I could also go into all sorts of comments about a young baby Bruce Banner semi-hulking out as being just about the most infantile thing I've ever heard of... but then I would mention Hulk rat as being far more inane... But ya know... Let's just see what this is. We know that different folks have had radically different takes on the HULK. I know many of you loved the Peter David HULK, which I loathed beyond any and all belief. There's the whole Green, Grey and Paisley Hulk debate. But I can say right now, I HATE DAVID BANNER BEING THE ABSORBING MAN!!!! But I'm sane about it. ARRRRRRRGGGGGHHHHH!!!!! Here ya go...

Hello,

The typical, frequent visitor, first time contactee. I happened to be somewhere today where someone from the Hulk production team was photocopying shooting schedules with quick summaries of the scene shooting descriptions. I borrowed one for the purposes of geeks everywhere. I can't go into much detail right now, but I'll try to fax or snail mail the thing to you later. It does reveal quite a bit of useful info, and I thought I'd just send these quick bits:

Main characters:

Bruce Banner, son of David Banner. Betty Ross, her father General Ross. Someone named Kurlensky?

David Banner was a radiation scientist who passed some kind of gamma ray contamination onto his son Bruce. There are scenes in flashback of David and Mrs. Banner testing the baby to see iif he is contaminated, scenes of the kid crawling funny and dveloping weirdly. Then at some point David Banner stabs the mother, and the baby Bruce reacts but doesn't seem to "Hulk out" (this is how the document describes the transformation.) Other tidbits:

David Banner is the Absorbing Man in this, and only transforms at the end, from what I can gather. Both the Absorbing Man and the Hulk are stuck in a frozen lake at what point.

There are Hulk dogs which attack Betty and Bruce, and even a Hulk rat. Also nano-cytes or something nonsensical mentioned.

That's all I have for you -- have to get back to business -- will try to get you more info later.

Call me "Octos the 8 dimensional cephalopod"
