As we get closer and closer to the release of Spider-Man: Brand New Day and Avengers: Doomsday, more evidence is mounting that we\u2019re also getting closer to a whole new version of the Hulk<\/a>, one that fans have been waiting years to see (especially those who weren\u2019t too impressed by his run as Smart Hulk). The rumors started swirling all the way back in September 2025<\/a>, and it seems like we might finally be getting confirmation that there\u2019s more than a hint of truth to them.<\/p>\n

Last year, during a Q&A with Cosmic Circus<\/a>, Alex Perez was asked, \u201cCan you tease us with anything new about Savage Hulk\/Bruce Banner in Spider-Man: Brand New Day and Doomsday?\u201d Perez responded with, \u201cHulk is scarier than ever before. He might even kill someone.\u201d It was a short answer, but it was all the fans needed to start running wild with theories about Savage Hulk. And now, a new poster has popped up online<\/a>, fanning the flames even further and sending fans into a speculation tailspin.<\/p>\n

It\u2019s No Secret That Fans Want Savage Hulk Sooner Rather Than Later<\/p>\n

\u201cIs this real??? Are we back? I need Savage Hulk in my life,\u201d said The Void Critic, who retweeted the poster. Following up with a fan who seemingly confirmed the appearance of Savage Hulk, they said, \u201cHuge win. How they have handled Hulk has been one of my biggest gripes with the MCU.\u201d And they\u2019re not alone in that complaint; plenty of fans have taken issue with the MCU\u2019s handling of the Hulk, and how they perceive that his character has been watered down over the years. In response to the poster, another fan said<\/a>, \u201cBringing back Savage Hulk is the right decision for the MCU. Hopefully, this leads to new stories being told for the Hulk and a possible Hulk movie.\u201d<\/p>\n

And with the photo from this poster officially making its way onto merch<\/a>, it seems more likely than ever that Savage Hulk is finally making a genuine appearance. \u201cPlease don\u2019t nerf him like Endgame Hulk. We want the actual strongest Avenger, not the depressed couch potato version,\u201d said one fan. Another added<\/a>, \u201cI hope they continue Savage Hulk\u2019s character growth from Thor Ragnarok and don\u2019t just make him mindless. We\u2019ve seen that too many times, and it provides no growth for the character. It would be better for the Savage Hulk personality to mentally grow up into the Green Scar.\u201d<\/p>\n
