Key characters 

**Comic Book Journey:**

The Hulks initial series was short-lived, but his character captivated audiences, leading to guest appearances and becoming a charter member of the Avengers. The Hulk featured regularly in *Tales to Astonish*, sharing the title with Giant-Man and later the Sub-Mariner, before taking over the magazine, which was renamed *The Incredible Hulk* in issue #102 (April 1968).

**Character Evolution:**

- Initially gray, the Hulk was changed to green due to printing issues.

- Early on, Banners transformations were triggered by nightfall; later, extreme anger became the catalyst.

- In the 1970s, the Hulk was often portrayed as a misunderstood, childlike creature who could be peaceful if left alone, contrasting with his early depiction as a remorseless monster.
