10 Most Unhinged Comic Book Characters

8. The Hulk

Unhinged Comic Characters DC
Marvel Comics

You'd call someone 'troubled' if their rage turned them into a green monster. You'd call someone 'totally messed up' though if that transformation could turn them into either a raging force of nature, a cold and calculating tyrant or a suspiciously Al Capone style gangster.

Yes, despite various comics explaining that The Hulk is merely the personification of Bruce Banner's rage (often augmented by a troubling childhood with an abusive father) there's little to explain how split his split personalities can be. It varies wildly from writer to writer, determining how much control Banner has over The Hulk, yet more often than not it's 'not that much, really'.

Fun side note, it's not just Banner who may be insane in the membrane. The All Different All New Hulk, Amadeus Cho, has recently shown signs of a few screws coming loose. Every now and then he'll catch a glimpse of a Hulk alter-ego staring back at him and be fairly shocked from the sight. Shows that it doesn't matter how smart or intelligent you may be; a gamma radiated persona will always find a way in. It's a lesson we all have to learn at some point or another.
