Zombie Hulk having traumatic flashback to when he lost black cherry at YMCA!  This alarmingly similar!  Leave Hulk be, puny humans!  Hulk all about the ladies!  Sure, there was that one time Hulk experiment at summer camp with Red Hulk… and that other time after watching Battlestar Galactica, when Hulk was “strangling Puny Banner” and accidentally pictured Edward James Olmos - but only for a second!  Then Hulk went back to thinking about Starbuck!  Why Hulk always attract the dudes?

That was not a tiara!!   That was World War Hulk battle-crown!  OK, the armband was admittedly a bit “Village People”… but still!  It not Hulk’s fault Hulk a metrosexual!

Wow, this is really creepy - extra creepy since, for some reason, Doc Banner appears to be drawn to resemble Marvel’s then-EIC Jim Shooter. I actually have this corny “Wonder Years” halcyon memory of spending summers in the country (well, Connecticut, if that counts as country), buying the Rampaging Hulk mag at the Soder shop, and enjoying both the novelty of reading a comic-ish thing in Magazine size (I was like six, anything other than school was an interesting novelty), and getting off on some of the first-ever Moon Knight stories that were occasionally published as backups. Thank god my innocent mind somehow didn’t process this scene of David Banner (this was TV Hulk, remember) getting GANG-RAPED in the shower!

As far as I know, the incident was never referred to again, but the experience obviously had an impact on old Jade Jaws. Observe how, when up against Rulk, he seems to instinctively know to go for the crotch:

And as for Dr. Banner? He may pretend he’s over it, but he’s obviously still troubled - look how he tries to work out his inner demons by getting into the weird kinky stuff:
