The Defenders and Captain Atom

 

A leaked final trailer for Spider-Man: Brand New Day have reportedly confirmed what I was hoping for.  The Savage Hulk will finally be returning to the MCU.  Smart Hulk was fun for one movie, but he never reverted back and has kind of worn out his welcome.  I'm ready for some smashing again.  Hopefully a Thing/Hulk fight will not be too far off.

The Hulk meets The Guardian & The Newsboy Legion

 I had some pretty crazy neighbors during my 20 years living in Brooklyn, but it was nothing like this.  Let's hope they can find some community building exercises to work on together.

Blue Beetle and The Hulk / Zatanna and Son of Satan

 

I never had much disposable income growing up, so comics that featured multiple stories always appealed to me.  This issue would have definitely had me at least flipping through it at the stands.

Blue Beetle last crossed paths with The Hulk in STF 1855...

Doc Samson and 4 Famous Co-Stars

 I'd like to be a fly on the wall for this therapy session.  Hopefully they all find some inner peace.  

Doc Samson first met Batman in one of my very first covers, an MS Paint effort from the first few days of the blog...

The Defenders and The Spectre

 

These guys are all heroes, but they've all done some shady stuff as well.  Not many heroes would give them pause, but being stared down by the Spectre has got to be an exception!

Wildcat and The Hulk

Rumors are that The Hulk will finally return to his savage form when he appears in the next Spider-Man movie.  I'm not sure what the story reason would be, but I hope that it's true.  Not only has Professor Hulk, (who to me just seems like green Mark Ruffalo) worn out his welcome, but now the stage can at last be set for a big screen Thing/Hulk fight!

 

Doom Patrol and The Defenders in: "It's All in the Timing!"

 

I definitely think that these two teams go well together.  The Doom Patrol and The Defenders previously met in STF #3588.  The Patrol has also separately run into the Hulk in STF #2976 and Namor in STF #4344.  

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:
