The Incredible Hulk (1968) #267
#I was so thrown by this because you would expect the Hulk’s dream to be some kind of paradise where he’s left alone or with his few friends
#and not what is essentially an idealized version of Bruce’s life
#but that’s because this arc is leaning really hard into that Bruce and the Hulk are one and the same
#this is the first ever depiction of Bruce’s parents
#I have an awareness of Bruce’s later established background but even without that I think the bit with his parents here feels a little off
#like it’s too picturesque
#and I’m intrigued by the transition from the idea that one day Bruce’s dreams of being a scientist will be fulfilled
#to the reality of how he was viewed and talked to by General Ross
#like the Hulk’s dream breaks down because Betty is in it but also Betty is there in reality with him
#but even without that his ‘dream’ involved being degraded and the build-up to the accident with the gamma bomb
#like Bruce and/or the Hulk even when manipulated to live out a fantasy can’t actually view their life going in any other direction
#also hmm when Doc Samson went into Bruce’s head he saw human Bruce go through ordinary things
#like being accidentally burned by an appliance as a child and scolded by a teacher as a teenager
#and the Hulk also viewing that and then reacting to it as though it was happening to him
#whereas this is doing the Bruce in the Hulk’s body thing
#I assume that’s intended as part of the fantasy where this is a conception of what Bruce being cured would look like
#but the Hulk obviously doesn't want that
#and in the issue after this Bruce specifically rejects that as an acceptable solution because he wants to be a regular human
#so it's actually neither of theirs' fantasy
