The Hulk is capable of much more than many fans realize, and not just in terms of power, but in depth of character. The Green Goliath has a pretty complex history, one with certain tragic aspects that are directly responsible for his tendency to want to, well…
Until he found cinematic success as a member of the Avengers, the Hulk’s biggest pop culture touchstone was the live-action Incredible Hulk TV show from the ’70s. On the small screen, the man-monster was nowhere near as powerful as the comic book or movie versions, so there’s one aspect of the Hulk that might come as a surprise. He’s always been hard to beat, but it turns out that even if he loses a fight, he’ll be back. It’s not that he won’t die, it’s that he can’t.
The Hulk possesses a healing factor that makes Deadpool’s look like a band-aid. He’s survived every kind of death you can imagine, from getting used as a pincushion by Wolverine to even having Bruce Banner’s body dissected and put into jars. In 2002’s Incredible Hulk: The End, it takes Hulk less than 20 minutes for his body to regenerate after being devoured by mutated cockroaches, which is pretty handy when you’re living in a world with, you know, mutated cockroaches. In 2005’s Incredible Hulk #77 we learn that his body has evolved to the point where he can safely extract oxygen from water, allowing him to stay underwater as long as he wants, and he can even survive in the vacuum of space for a pretty long time. Keep watching the video to see all the false facts about The Hulk you always thought were true!
