tender hulk is not only stigmatized as a fan creation, but also flat out ignored when in canon. the hulk is a separate entity with his own thoughts, feelings, and ideas, which are separate yet intrinsically connected to bruce banner. the hulk is a protective, caring, emotionally intelligent being who is constantly overlooked and reduced to a big, dumb strongman due to his often impulsive nature and simplistic speech pattern, an act of which is routed in ableism. in this essay i will

110% true, gentle Hulk is so important to me. I’ve read a HELL of a lot of Hulk comics and especially in the early ones Hulk never ONCE attacked first. People see him (mostly military) and go omg giant scary monster! And attack him and Hulk OFTEN wonders WHY he is being attacked. He’s stated he doesn’t know why they are doing it and also stated that he WASN’T DOING ANYTHING but of course he will defend himself.
Hulk has also canonly stated “hulk is tired of the guns and the noise and the fighting”
And the few people that approach him nicely he defends the hell out of.
That’s why I love him so much. Hulk is so much more and I could rant for hours. I love this post for being this up
I HONESTLY THOUGHT HULK WAS JUST “RAAAR SMASH” THANK YOU FOR WIPING AWAY MY HORRIBLE PRECONCEPTIONS

Yes. Remember that Hulk is provoked by Bruce being afraid or threatened, not just when he’s angry. And Hulk is, in many ways, a manifestation of Bruce’s deeply traumatized inner child.
CARTERET, NJ—Saying the longtime warehouse associate blatantly disregarded company protocol regarding permitted inhalation, Amazon spokespeople confirmed the firing of one Thomas Gilman for taking an unauthorized breath during an overnight shift Friday. “We run a tight ship at this [Amazon] fulfillment center, and we expect a certain level of discipline and decorum from our employees,” said warehouse manager John Sabourne, who encourages his staff to report their fellow coworkers for exceeding their allotted 300 breaths per hour while on-shift. “You can’t just take a breath whenever you want to—we pay to condition the air here, for one thing, and if a worker actually stops to catch their breath? There go our profit margins. This guy was a known deep-breather, so my hands were tied. I had no choice but to let him go.” Amazon management responded to requests for additional information by announcing an expansion of company policy to crack down on warehouse worker blinking.
