Marvel Comics - Rumor - Identity Of The New Hulk Leaked? *Updated*

Update 1:

“An all-new Hulk unlike any Hulk you’ve seen before. It’s so much fun and it makes so much story sense that this Hulk will exist. It will raise questions for long-term fans about Bruce Banner (the Green Giant’s alter ego).”

My reliable source has it under good authority that the new Hulk will be Amadeus Cho.

Cho was created by Writer Greg Pak and Artist Takeshi Miyazawa and has been a friend and ally to the Hulk for a long time. Bruce Banner will be separated from the Hulk persona, but will still remain a part of the universe.

Amadeus Cho is considered one of the smartest people in the Marvel universe (the 7th smartest person in the universe according to Reed Richards). Generally depicted as a teenager he can perform multiple complex calculations within his head in seconds, to the point where his brain is considered a hyper computer. He's had multiple run-ins with the Hulk, and is at times considered one of the Hulk's best friends. Both feeling that they are misunderstood, yet have awesome power.



Original Post:

We are told that the All-New Hulk will cause controversy. That just the character’s silhouette alone will cause ructions. And that the same folk who got upset with Jane Foster as Thor will get as upset with this as well. Which has led a number to suggest that Jennifer Walters, the She-Hulk, will become the actual Hulk.

Well, stranger things have happened. But one Little Bleeder writes in, who has never written in before, telling me that they overheard Marvel staff members in New York gossiping that the new Hulk will actually be the Ultimate Reed Richards character, the psychopathic teenage genius from the Ultimate Universe.

I could see such a character being able to alter his shape to Hulk dimensions,. but as it stands, can’t exactly see how that might work. But it’s the most insane idea I’ve heard so far… so it just might work. I don’t know whether to believe it and it may well be contradicted in hours, but I just thought…

Unlike the regular Reed Richards, the ultimate universe version has been taken in a vastly different direction.

After Magneto used Thor's hammer to drown New York (killing many characters in the process), Reed began to have a breakdown. His marriage proposal to Sue was rejected and he ordered Ben to kill Doctor Doom. With his world view changed he faked his death and began a scheme to 'Perfect' the world, which included killing many more. As Galactus began to destroy the world during the Cataclysm event, the heroes had to team up with Reed in order to save the universe. Despite seeming to have returned to the side of good, Reed continued his dark schemes in secret to 'Perfect' the world.

How dark? Well...
