Marvel kill off Bruce Banner, the Hulks alter ego.

[Phlog]

"Marvel has killed off The Hulk's human alter ego Bruce Banner in its latest comic.

The character is seen dying as a result of an arrow to the head from Hawkeye, his Avengers teammate, in the third issue of Civil War II.

Banner has been the Hulk's alter ego since the character's creation in 1962.

However, for the last year, readers have seen Banner medicating himself to keep his anger management issues under control.

During that time, a Korean-American teenage genius named Amadeus Cho has taken over as the new human alter-ego of The Hulk"

Seen the new Hulk (Korean kid). Looks awful, constantly smiling. That's not the Hulk we know and love. Stop vilifying anger management issues.

Ugh Cho is a bullsbit character. Marvel is diing anything and everything to boost sales lately. Fuck continuity and your most iconic characters. I'm honestly glad I don't follow them anymore. They've been trash since right after civil war 1.

i haven't read this issue yet but how does Hawkeye actually kill him.

I didn't think the hulk could die like that, the second banner is hit the Hulk starts kicking in. Def have to read this issue

 

[DIABOLUS]

Is this a fucking joke? Marvel CEO is trolling the fuck out of all of us with these bullshit PC Feminazi SJW changes.

I read he's been taking medicine to suppress the transformation. So he couldn't change. Arrow through the head.

Marvel you are fucking killing me with these changes

 

[TemujinKhan]

This is what genocide looks like people...

But seriously IDK what Marvel was thinking here, changing a character to a black guy or white woman at least has the benefit of pleasing SJWs. But changing an iconic character to an asian? in America? Lol, this isn't going to go over well with the majority.

Marvel is doing everything backwards, you're supposed to take asian characters and turn them white, don't they even learn from hollywood or their own MCU studios?

Gotta admit tho as a Korean that has always had Hulk as my favorite comic book character it is a bit intriguing. But I"m sure this move is going to flop hardcore for them, theres no way the general audience would accept an asian hulk, no freaking way.

I'm still trying to wrap my head around the two sides being split apart. I haven't followed the comics which went down this path. As for the Cho thing..... just beyond dumb.

So glad I got out before all this b.s.

It's the thing that starts the civil war.

And a good one at that.

Every one of the originals had died in recent times, and come back. It's just banners turn.

If iron hasn't died lately, he's up next.

This has been done before.

Aside from the SJW bullshit, how do you go from the name Bruce Banner which just rolls off the tongue to Amadeus Cho? Superheroes are supposed to have catchy names like Peter Parker and Clark Kent, not fucking AMADEUS CHO! No one sounds cool saying that shit! It's like naming Batman Rudiger McDonald.

Lol, Rama I should've taken some time away after Secret Wars was over. My pull list isn't big though and the Star Wars comics happen to be the best part of Marvel at the moment. Really one of the only reasons I come back.

Seems like all the "good" work is spent over in that corner. Although Miles Morales spider man and Silver Surfer happen to be good &I I enjoy All New Avengers.

Iron Man is a woman now. 15 years old. Black. Take time to process that, i know i had to.

 

[Seriously-Dead]

It's almost like the CEO of Marvel is Eric Cartman and this forum is Scott Tenorman. I could swear he reads this place and hates everyone here.

 

[J. Bernie Cunningham]

It's comic book guys. The whole business is essentially doing whatever's current to grab eyes.

Be glad he's not transitioning to Caitlyn Banner...

 

[PRIDEWASBETTER]

I read he's been taking medicine to suppress the transformation. So he couldn't change. Arrow through the head.

Spoiler

Pretty much.

So they confront Banner, and eventually an ally and fellow Avenger, Hawkeye, kills him, but there's a twist: Banner asks him to do it with a special arrow he gives him.

"I need you to promise me you'll stop me once and for all," he tells his friend in another flashback.

How.... how can you change the human side of Hulk? WTF?!
