My two favorite versions of the animated Incredible Hulk had Rick in long hair and cowboy attire. The 80s one also gave him a hat.
There hasn’t been a single version of The Incredible Hulk in live-action that has included Rick Jones even when he was an important character in the comic at the time it was produced. Rick has also been a Bucky, did the “switch realities” thing with both Quasar and Captain Mar-Vell, been a help to the Avengers, formed the Teen Brigade to help the Hulk, and been the only friend both identities have had without complications beyond a mild-mannered scientist with mental trauma turning into a rage machine or a gray mobster. The cartoons have rarely not used him however. This is another point in favor of the cartoons.
No Clutter Report this week due to family emergency, the same reason I missed Saturday Night Showcase this week. Thankfully that all seems to be resolved, praise God! So it’s time to get ready for a whole new week with hopefully less problems…and I still don’t know what to do on Friday since I’m out of physical comics outside of the two series on Monday and Wednesday. With any luck I’ll come up with something or else Blue Beetle is going to move to Fridays and that’s still a pain to review given the anthology format and Holyoke slowly edging Dan Garret out of his own comic. Plus there’s the next Chapter By Chapter installment of Batman: Knightfall as we get closer to part 3 of the novelization.
Have a great week, everyone!
