The Hulk and Blue Beetle in: "Bodyguarding Banner!"

 


This is the third meeting between these heroes.  They first met with Booster Gold and The Defenders way back in STF #165, and The Hulk almost replaced Booster in STF #1855... 

Blue Beetle took a little tweaking on this one.  Here's a peek behind the scenes:

I'm definitely still half-asleep. When I first saw this, I thought: "How can Beetle Bailey protect the Hulk from Thunderbolt Ross?"

LOL! That, I would've gladly shelled out $0.60 for! :-)

Anon, one of the best questions in some time... Carycomic, wouldn't you agree?
Great to seebTed being taken seriously since one of him did give his life for the League and Maxwell is still remembered for it. Ted might tell Hulk to follow him since Hulk might forget details. Shame Ted couldn't team with Rick Jones as well.

This looks like an older, interior drawing of the Hulk, too, though I could be mistaken.

Say, I'm pretty sure Batman and the Hulk have met several times on this blog, but has it ever been done in a way that notes their shared first names?

My namesake@9:05 could probably answer that better than I could. ;-)

There was one cover called "A Tale of Two Bruces", if I remember correctly. And an upcoming cover also riffs off of them having the same first name as well, stay tuned.
