The Defenders (1972) #74
#oh my baby 😭#I’m so glad that he has the Defenders and Kyle’s Riding Academy#I really feel that the Defenders as a non-team works really well for the Hulk in a way that a traditional formal superhero team wouldn’t#like he’s someone that feels a lot of intense emotions and can get overwhelmed easily#and he needs his space in order to calm down and/or process things#particularly because more so than most people he needs more time and a quiet environment to really think things through#I remember last issue all the girls were gonna hang out and listen to music and the Hulk was invited to participate in that too#but he didn’t want to listen to noise and went to sit outside in the quiet instead#where he grumbled and was confused and thought about how he didn’t think he needed friends but then why did being away from his friends hurt#and because his friends are chill and get him they weren’t bothered by him not participating and didn’t try to pressure him to stay#whereas if they had then the Hulk would have gotten upset about being told what to do and overwhelmed by the noise#and at the very least would have said hurtful things to his friends#like the Riding Academy is a safe space for the Hulk and one he sorely needs#but it’s also not a place he’s in any way confined to#whereas a more traditional team might do more to keep track of the Hulk’s whereabouts and maybe try to keep him within their space/control#the Hulk has grown so much through his time with the Defenders#and that’s only been able to happen because he’s a part of the team on his own terms#marvel#bruce banner#patsy walker#my posts#comic panels
