The Incredible Hulk (1968) #247
#ahhh this is so great for me#very intrigued by the transition here between Bruce’s memory of visiting his parents’ graves#which would have been before the gamma bomb accident#and the Hulk’s memory of burying Crackajack and then making him a tombstone#and that the Hulk says he remembers this place but can’t remember from where#and then the narration supplies that it’s ‘from fairy tales told to a lonely child christened Robert Bruce Banner’#ok I haven’t read She-Hulk’s first appearance yet which I believe would have been published a few months before this issue#but briefly assuming that nothing about Bruce’s background was revealed there#there’s been two stories that dealt with where Bruce went to college and a professor that was significant for him there#and there was the therapy issue where Samson went into the Hulk’s mind#and saw really sanitized and decontextualized memories that portrayed Bruce’s childhood as incredibly normal#and that is it for the entirety of what we’ve seen of Bruce’s pre-gamma bomb accident life#so this is first revealing that both his parents are dead#and that he was a ‘lonely’ child#marvel#bruce banner#my posts#comic panels
