I don’t normally run with a bit that is not already within the readership’s wheelhouse, but this one comes to us via one of the most decorated vets of the internets(nullus to that rhyme).
When we first met TONY SNOW we gave him a resemblance to one of Superman’s favorite bad guys, Brainiac. [insert Superman movie link here] Just then COMBAT JACK reminded us about the Hulk’s arch-enemy The Leader. The backstory for the character is that this dude was a high school dropout who worked at a chemical plant handling wild toxic sh!t that spilled on him and gave him the gamma ray effect that your man Hulk got. The gamma radiation made The Leaders brain swell disproportionately to his body giving him an oversized head(have you said nullus yet?).
As an aside, I remember when S.W. and I worked the night shift at this plant making circuit boards. You took a test and the company placed you in the department that best suited your mental and motor skills. I got to sit in the lab and operate this precision machinery while S_DUBBZ had to work in the smelting area. Ol’ boys hairline been doing the lean back ever since. But I digress…
The funny fly shit abouth the gamma radiation is that it takes your best attributes and reverses them, while it oversizes the characteristics that you lack. Bruce Banner was a wimpy physicist who turned into a brainless brute. The Leader is a bum ass janitor who morphs into a diminutive genius.
I’m bugging out on how the shape of The Leader’s head has also changed. Let me just say nullus to this whole post.
DP.COM will send free shit to anyone who gives me the ancient video clip intro from the old Incredible Hulk cartoon. Fuck it, free shit to whomever can recite the lyrics.
Doc Bruce Banner…
Belted by Gamma rays,
Turns into THE HULK,
–Ain’t he unglamourous!
Wrecking the town with
The power of a BULL
Ain’t no monster found,
Who’s as lovable…
As the EVER-LOVIN’ HULK!
Hulk.
Hulk.
