10 Notable Career Changes Of Famous Comic Book Characters
7. Hulk Joe Fixit
Just picture it: the Incredible Hulk as a Las Vegas enforcer. Okay, its not quite the Hulk were all used to seeing. In the 1980s, after Bruce Banner joined back with the Hulk after the two entities were separated for a while, and a grey Hulk emerged as a new persona from Banners subconscious. While Banner was the intelligent scientist and the green Hulk was the easily angered monster, Grey Hulk was a combination of both. Not quite as strong as Green Hulk, he was more intelligent, quite the smart-mouth and was able to do all the 'not-so-nice' things that Banner was afraid to do. Grey Hulk began his career as a Las Vegas tough guy named Joe Fixit and worked during the night when Banners transformations occurred. Grey Hulk was eventually revealed as just one of the many personalities that were rolling around in Banners head. Since Im not a big Hulk fan, I find these separate identities for Bruce Banner to be quite confusing. To me, theres Banner and the Green Hulk. The scientist and the monster. Its the modern-day Jekyll and Hyde, and it doesnt have to be more complicated than that. I have to admit, however, that a Hulk that worked in Las Vegas as an enforcer is awesome, in a suit and hat no less. He may be more expensive than the other strong men around the city, but if you hire him, its a guarantee that no will ever screw with you or not give you your money.
