The field of this She-Hulk decided to take revenge on the Hulk and gathered a small detachment consisting of Tundra, Valkyrie and herself. After a short battle, the Invisible Lady, Tigger, Black Widow, Storm, Red Lynx and Spider Woman came to the aid of the girls. Hulk soon lost and passed out. The Hulk managed to escape and kidnap Tundra to offer her an unknown deal.

After some time, Domino accidentally learned the secret of the identity of the Red Hulk. The Hulk started chasing her, but Domino was able to escape. But Doctor Samson and General Ross ordered him to find and kill Domino. And that for this he will need help, the Hulk gathered a squad consisting of Tundra, Elektra, Deadpool, Red Dynamo and the Punisher. Domino, in turn, gathered the X-Force. During the fight with Wolverine, the Hulk went blind. In the midst of the battle, the Red She-Hulk appears and convinces the Hulk to come with her. A few minutes later, the sight returned to the Hulk and he realized that it was all a trap set by the Doctors Samson, who bought his team. Hulk miraculously manages to escape with the help of Tundra. The Hulk soon found Domino and Wolverine at Silver Sable's house. She told him that Samson arranged all this and that he was connected with Ts.I.I. (Center for Interesting Ideas), and therefore with Modoc.

It was revealed that Modoc and the Leader had assembled a team consisting of the Red Ghost, the Wizard, and the Mad Thinker, along with General Ross, Samson, the Fearsome Four, and the Red She-Hulk. The Red Hulk realized that he could not cope on his own and decided to make an alliance with Bruce Banner. Soon, General Ross made an attempt to kill the Red Hulk, but was killed, after which it turned out that Bety Ross and Glen Talbot were alive (previously considered dead).

Red Hulk and A-Bomb's first mission was to destroy the Space Hulk, who was stationed at Modoc's base. But it was the Leader and Modok's plan to use the Red Hulk's power to activate the Space Hulk. A-Bomb managed to take the disc with the information. It turned out that the Space Hulk was created by the Mad Thinker using Galactus' technology, making his powers comparable to those of the Silver Surfer. The second task was to save Mister Fantastic from the Wizard and his Fearsome Four, but he failed.

Always and everywhere the green Hulk was considered the strongest, most enduring and, of course, invincible. But how to answer the question, who is the strongest of the characters, if another superhero appeared in the film industry - the Red Hulk? And in order to find out who is the strongest character - you need to know them both better.

History of the Green Hulk

The Hulk is a Marvel comic book superhero. Its creators are Jack Kirby and Stan Lee. Thus, the hero of animated and feature films is already 54 years old. The Hulk is Bruce Banner, a physicist. As a result of one of the experiments, an explosion occurred, and the physicist received strong radiation from a gamma ray.

As a result of this, a simple person gained the ability to turn into a superhero. Very often, the Hulk has to hide from the police, who are looking for him for the destruction, but the superhero always manages to get out of even the most difficult situations. For 54 years, the Hulk fought all the superheroes of Marvel comics and at the same time remained invincible.

Superpowers of the Green Hulk

Since the green Hulk is the strongest of the Marvel characters, it is worth paying attention to his abilities. What if there is a stronger character?

The first thing you should pay attention to is the Hulk's superpower, which grows exponentially from the level of his anger. Moreover, the harder the character is hit, the more strength he gets, which gives reason to call him stronger than Thor or even Hercules.

It is also surprising that the Hulk has the ability to self-heal, so any damage inflicted on him becomes only an excuse for the Hulk's wrath. The character has incredible speed, despite the huge legs. As planned by the authors, this character can move faster than the speed of sound. His no less mesmerizing ability is jumping. As you know, the Hulk was able to jump the orbit of the Earth.

This character has the ability to live without air, and he is absolutely not amenable to magic or other supernatural actions. If they try to act on the Hulk with the help of evil dark forces, he feeds on this energy, and his power becomes even greater.

Also, if the Hulk is cut off a part of the body, it will certainly grow or regenerate. The character is endowed with incredible strength and resistance to any external factor, in addition, we can safely say that he can be reborn from molecules.

Is it really possible for someone to defeat him with such superpowers?

Who is the Red Hulk?

No matter how strange and surprising it may sound, the green Hulk has a strong rival - the red Hulk. Initially, before obtaining super strength, it was a simple man who was very fond of martial arts. He was a descendant of the military, so being in this area is his life's work. Starting from the bottom and becoming a general, Ross received the title of "Thunderer". During the gamma ray, Ross was exposed to a beam that contained cathexis with the green Hulk's genes.

And as a result, his prototype appears before the fans of the green Hulk - the Red Hulk. But, unlike the first, the second Hulk also has military training. Strategic thinking and an irresistible desire to restore order in the country leads to the obligatory fight against the green Hulk, who constantly violates this order.

Therefore, the red Hulk against the green is an exciting story.

How did the Hulks meet?

General Ross was at the laboratory station where gamma radiation was being investigated. Bruce Bennett was put in charge of this project. General Ross could not accept the fact that a simple resident was appointed commander, and he, the general, was subordinate.

After some time, Ross began to suspect that Bennet and the Hulk are the same person. Moreover, his hatred for the green Hulk was fueled by the feelings of his only daughter, Betty, for the physicist. Therefore, Ross did everything in order to find confirmation of the connection between the Hulk and the physicist and uncover this deception. He hoped that when everything was revealed, his daughter would stop loving this monster. Therefore, Ross has always been at the head of those who are looking for the Hulk to kill him.

So who is stronger?

Red Hulk and Green Hulk have almost the same abilities. They are both incredibly strong, fast characters. In addition, both have the ability to regenerate, which makes their fight more exciting. While the red Hulk has thermal radiation, the green one has a suggestive sense and is resistant to telepathic effects.

The only major difference between the green Hulk and the red one is that the latter has military training, which helps him a lot. The fight between the red and green Hulk very often leads to the fact that one of them is temporarily defeated. So, in one of the episodes, the red Hulk attacks the green one, breaks his arm and throws him into the river. But all viewers know that the green Hulk will definitely get out and fight back, because he has the ability to live without air and will easily endure being in the water.

In addition, the green Hulk initially had to independently learn to maintain the thinking and intelligence of Bruce Bennet when turning into the Hulk. And the Red Hulk originally had this ability. But this does not give reason to immediately award the victory to General Ross.

Hulks on screen

When the Hulk was in the singular, there were films and cartoons about him that attracted to the screens. Now, fans of this character will be able to watch the cartoon "Red Hulk vs Green", which is full of confrontation between both characters. The most important question for all viewers is who is stronger. The cartoon is filled with many vivid pictures in which both heroes show their strength and desire to become the strongest on the planet, because the two of them are cramped on Earth.

More than once the red Hulk will perform against the green Hulk. The cartoon will still show the viewer who is stronger, so all fans of films about the Marvel universe will be able to cheer for their favorite hero. And it will be an unforgettable sight.

Red Hulk is a new character, and he introduced another obstacle into the life of the green Hulk, which not only develops the plot, but also fuels the interest of the audience. The Hulk has always been able to defeat any character, but now he will have to defeat himself. Can he survive this fight?

First appeared in issue 1 of the comic "Incredible Hulk" in May 1962 as General Ross.

Character biography

General Ross

General Ross is a brave warrior and longtime enemy of the Hulk. It was Thaddeus Ross who ran the science center where they tested the gamma bomb that turned Bruce Banner into the green giant Hulk. Ross is obsessed with capturing the Hulk and has no sympathy for Banner. The general leads a special forces unit - "Anti-Hulk". In the arsenal of the detachment - the most modern equipment and powerful weapons. For his explosive temperament, Ross was given the nickname - "Thunderer" (or simply "Thunder"). Since no prison can hold the Hulk, Ross founded the "Gamma Base" - the headquarters of his squad, intended for the green monster. In addition to all this, Ross has a daughter - Betty, whom he dreams of marrying his assistant - Major Glenn Talbot. However, Betty is in love with Bruce Banner, and the idea of ​​intermarrying with the Hulk infuriated Ross. But still, his plan did not come true and Betty married Bruce. After that, Ross became even more angry with the giant and even asked for help from the villains so that they defeated the Hulk. Even MODOK helped him, but still Ross could not catch the Hulk.

Red Hulk

For the first time Red Hulk (or Rulk"") appeared in 2008 in the comic strip Hulk vol. 2 #1 .

After one experiment, Ross became the Red Hulk under unknown circumstances. He first appeared in the form of the Hulk in Russia, where he beat and shot the Abomination, while the real Hulk was imprisoned in an underground military base in Death Valley after a failed war against Earth's superheroes. Iron Man, She-Hulk, Doc Samson and Maria Hill went to investigate this murder. After that, the Red Hulk unexpectedly made his way to the flying aircraft carrier S.H.I.E.L.D., hacked into the database and deleted all files relating to the Hulk, defeated Iron Man and She-Hulk and shot down the aircraft carrier itself. The Red Hulk then traveled to Death Valley and defeated A-Bomb (a Gamma mutant that Rick Jones unexpectedly turned into).

At this time, the real Hulk broke free and fought with his red counterpart, but Thor intervened in their duel. The Red Hulk defeated Thor in space and, upon his return to Earth, set off the largest earthquake in San Francisco. Then the Hulk, A-Bomb and Thor himself opposed him. And She-Hulk, the Avengers, the Fantastic Four and Namor went to save the city from destruction. The Red Hulk was defeated, after which it turns out that Doctor Samson and General Ross himself, who turned into him, were behind his creation.

After that, She-Hulk decided to take revenge on the Hulk and gathered a small detachment consisting of Thundra, Valkyrie and herself. After a short battle, the Invisible Lady, Tigger, Black Widow, Storm, Red Lynx and Spider Woman came to the aid of the girls. Hulk soon lost and passed out. The Hulk managed to escape and kidnap Tundra to offer her an unknown deal.

The plan of the Intelligentsia came to light: the kidnapping of eight of the smartest people - Mister Fantastic, Iron Man, Doctor Doom, Bruce Banner, Black Panther, Amadeus Cho, the Beast and Henry Pym. While Space Hulk was capturing Doctor Doom, Red She-Hulk attacked the Mighty Avengers, and although Bruce Banner and Skaar came to their aid, she still managed to capture Pym.

Meanwhile, the Red Hulk arrived in Wakanda and tried to save the Black Panther and the Beast from the Red Ghost and his gamma monkeys, but the X-Men mistook him for an ally of the Ghost and attacked, the Red Ghost managed to do what he came for.

Later, the Red Hulk infiltrated the Intelligentsia Carrier but was stopped by the Space Hulk. The intelligentsia used it as an energy source for Samson's Cathexis Ray. Then Red Hulk's backup plan, Deadpool, was activated. He smashed the tank that contained the Red Hulk. Deadpool doused himself with irradiated water and turned into a Hulk-like monster and named himself Hulkpool. He began to attack the Red Hulk, after which he pushed the Hulkpool out of the ship.

Immediately afterwards, the Red Hulk was attacked by the irradiated Avengers, the Fantastic Four, and the X-Men. Since their minds were the same as the Green Hulk's, Red Hulk was able to cunningly turn them against each other and destroyed the room with Cyclops' beams. The true goals of the Intelligentsia were revealed - to create an army of two hundred Red Hulks.

After fighting the irradiated heroes, the Red Hulk was greatly weakened. He was soon attacked by the Red She-Hulk, who beat him to a pulp, after which the Red Hulk turned into his alter ego - General Ross, and learned that his opponent was Betty Ross. She left him thinking she killed him. The General is attacked by the Space Hulk and Ross decided that he could not defeat him and tried to hide, but eventually turned into the Red Hulk and ripped the Space Hulk apart.

After all that happened, the general again turned into the Red Hulk and, at the request of Bruce Banner and with the help of Steve Rogers, joined the Avengers Army. He was caught by Namor and was supposed to be executed, but was saved. Steve Rogers welcomed him as a member of the Avengers. Will be included in the Avengers in the future.

Capabilities

At first, Ross did not have superpowers, but received them when he turned into the Red Hulk. They differ from the original Hulk's abilities in that they do not increase due to anger, but the Red Hulk is much stronger than the calm Green Hulk and can absorb various types of energy (including cosmic) and become stronger due to it. In addition, he is smarter than the Hulk, is able to fully control his actions, speaks clearly, uses weapons, and even hacked the S.H.I.E.L.D. security system.

• AT Hulk #05 When the Red Hulk fought Thor, he took Mjolnir from him. And Thor's hammer can only be lifted (and even more so used) by a worthy one. However, it is subsequently explained that the Red Hulk used a state of weightlessness in which the weight of the hammer does not work. Besides, the hammer was in Thor's hand.

[Wonderful!] - With the Italian ability to change the expression at will, he approached the portrait and pretended to be thoughtful tenderness. He felt that what he would say and do now was history. And it seemed to him that the best thing he could do now was that he, with his greatness, as a result of which his son in bilbock played with the globe, so that he showed, in contrast to this greatness, the simplest paternal tenderness. His eyes dimmed, he moved, looked around at the chair (the chair jumped under him) and sat down on it opposite the portrait. One gesture from him - and everyone tiptoed out, leaving himself and his feeling of a great man. After sitting for some time and touching, for what he did not know, with his hand until the rough reflection of the portrait, he got up and again called Bosse and the duty officer. He ordered the portrait to be taken out in front of the tent, so as not to deprive the old guard, who stood near his tent, of the happiness of seeing the Roman king, the son and heir of their adored sovereign. As he expected, while he was breakfasting with Monsieur Bosset, who had received this honor, enthusiastic cries of officers and soldiers of the old guard were heard in front of the tent. - Vive l "Empereur! Vive le Roi de Rome! Vive l" Empereur! [Long live the emperor! Long live the king of Rome!] – enthusiastic voices were heard. After breakfast, Napoleon, in the presence of Bosset, dictated his order to the army. Courte et energique! [Short and energetic!] - Napoleon said when he himself read the proclamation written without amendments at once. The order was: "Warriors! Here is the battle you have been longing for. Victory is up to you. It is necessary for us; she will provide us with everything we need: comfortable apartments and a speedy return to the fatherland. Act as you did at Austerlitz, Friedland, Vitebsk and Smolensk. May later posterity proudly remember your exploits in this day. Let them say about each of you: he was in the great battle near Moscow! – De la Moskowa! [Near Moscow!] - repeated Napoleon, and, having invited Mr. Bosse, who loved to travel, to his walk, he left the tent to the saddled horses. - Votre Majeste a trop de bonte, [You are too kind, your Majesty,] - Bosse said to the invitation to accompany the emperor: he wanted to sleep and he did not know how and was afraid to ride. But Napoleon nodded his head to the traveler, and Bosset had to go. When Napoleon left the tent, the cries of the guards in front of the portrait of his son intensified even more. Napoleon frowned. “Take it off,” he said, pointing gracefully at the portrait with a majestic gesture. It's too early for him to see the battlefield. Bosse, closing his eyes and bowing his head, took a deep breath, with this gesture showing how he knew how to appreciate and understand the words of the emperor. All that day, August 25, as his historians say, Napoleon spent on horseback, inspecting the area, discussing the plans presented to him by his marshals, and personally giving orders to his generals. The original line of disposition of the Russian troops along the Kolocha was broken, and part of this line, namely the left flank of the Russians, was driven back as a result of the capture of the Shevardinsky redoubt on the 24th. This part of the line was not fortified, no longer protected by the river, and in front of it alone there was a more open and level place. It was obvious to every military and non-military that this part of the line was to be attacked by the French. It seemed that this did not require many considerations, it did not require such care and troublesomeness of the emperor and his marshals, and it did not at all require that special higher ability, called genius, which Napoleon is so fond of ascribed to; but the historians who subsequently described this event, and the people who then surrounded Napoleon, and he himself thought differently. Napoleon rode across the field, peered thoughtfully at the terrain, shook his head approvingly or incredulously with himself and, without informing the generals around him of the thoughtful move that guided his decisions, conveyed to them only final conclusions in the form of orders. After listening to the proposal of Davout, called the Duke of Eckmuhl, to turn around the Russian left flank, Napoleon said that this should not be done, without explaining why it was not necessary. On the proposal of General Compan (who was supposed to attack the fleches) to lead his division through the forest, Napoleon expressed his consent, despite the fact that the so-called Duke of Elchingen, that is, Ney, allowed himself to remark that moving through the forest was dangerous and could upset the division . After examining the area opposite the Shevardinsky redoubt, Napoleon thought for a few moments in silence and pointed to the places where two batteries were to be arranged by tomorrow for action against the Russian fortifications, and the places where field artillery was to line up next to them. Having given these and other orders, he returned to his headquarters, and the disposition of the battle was written under his dictation. This disposition, about which French historians speak with delight and other historians with deep respect, was as follows: “At dawn, two new batteries, arranged in the night, on the plain occupied by Prince Ekmülsky, will open fire on two opposing enemy batteries. At the same time, the chief of artillery of the 1st Corps, General Pernetti, with 30 guns of the Compan division and all the howitzers of the Desse and Friant division, will move forward, open fire and bombard the enemy battery with grenades, against which they will act! 24 guards artillery guns, 30 guns of the Kompan division and 8 guns of the Friant and Desse divisions, In total - 62 guns. The chief of artillery of the 3rd corps, General Fouche, will place all the howitzers of the 3rd and 8th corps, 16 in total, on the flanks of the battery, which is assigned to bombard the left fortification, which will total 40 guns against it. General Sorbier must be ready at the first order to take out with all the howitzers of the guards artillery against one or another fortification. In continuation of the cannonade, Prince Poniatowski will go to the village, into the forest and bypass the enemy position. General Kompan will move through the forest to take the first fortification. Upon entering the battle in this way, orders will be given according to the actions of the enemy. The cannonade on the left flank will begin as soon as the cannonade of the right wing is heard. The riflemen of Moran's division and the viceroy's division will open heavy fire upon seeing the right wing attack begin. The viceroy will take possession of the village [Borodin] and cross his three bridges, following at the same height with the divisions of Moran and Gerard, who, under his leadership, will move towards the redoubt and enter the line with the rest of the army. All this must be carried out in order (le tout se fera avec ordre et methode), keeping the troops as far as possible in reserve. In the imperial camp, near Mozhaisk, September 6, 1812. This disposition, very vaguely and confusedly written - if you allow yourself to treat his orders without religious horror at the genius of Napoleon - contained four points - four orders. None of these orders could be and was not executed. The disposition says, firstly: that the batteries arranged at the place chosen by Napoleon with the guns of Pernetti and Fouche, having aligned with them, a total of one hundred and two guns, open fire and bombard the Russian flashes and redoubt with shells. This could not be done, since the shells did not reach the Russian works from the places appointed by Napoleon, and these one hundred and two guns fired at empty until the nearest commander, contrary to Napoleon's order, pushed them forward. The second order was that Poniatowski, heading for the village into the forest, bypassed the left wing of the Russians. This could not be and was not done because Poniatowski, heading for the village into the forest, met Tuchkov blocking his way there and could not and did not bypass the Russian position. Third order: General Kompan will move into the forest to take the first fortification. Compana's division did not capture the first fortification, but was repulsed, because, leaving the forest, it had to be built under grapeshot fire, which Napoleon did not know. Fourth: The Viceroy will take possession of the village (Borodin) and cross his three bridges, following at the same height with the divisions of Maran and Friant (of which it is not said where and when they will move), which, under his leadership, will go to the redoubt and enter the line with other troops. As far as one can understand - if not from the stupid period of this, then from those attempts that were made by the viceroy to fulfill the orders given to him - he was to move through Borodino on the left to the redoubt, while the divisions of Moran and Friant were to move simultaneously from the front. All this, as well as other points of the disposition, was not and could not be executed. Having passed Borodino, the viceroy was repulsed on Kolocha and could not go further; the divisions of Moran and Friant did not take the redoubt, but were repulsed, and the redoubt was captured by cavalry at the end of the battle (probably an unforeseen and unheard of thing for Napoleon). So, none of the orders of the disposition was and could not be executed. But the disposition says that after entering the battle in this way, orders will be given corresponding to the actions of the enemy, and therefore it might seem that during the battle all the necessary orders will be made by Napoleon; but this was not and could not be because during the entire battle Napoleon was so far away from him that (as it turned out later) he could not know the course of the battle and not a single order of his during the battle could be executed. Many historians say that the battle of Borodino was not won by the French because Napoleon had a cold, that if he had not had a cold, then his orders before and during the battle would have been even more brilliant, and Russia would have perished, et la face du monde eut ete changee. [and the face of the world would have changed.] For historians who admit that Russia was formed at the behest of one man - Peter the Great, and France from a republic developed into an empire, and French troops went to Russia at the behest of one man - Napoleon, such an argument that Russia remained powerful because Napoleon had a bad cold on the 26th, such reasoning for such historians is inevitably consistent. If it depended on the will of Napoleon to give or not to give the Battle of Borodino, and it depended on his will to make such or another order, then it is obvious that a runny nose, which had an influence on the manifestation of his will, could be the reason for the salvation of Russia and that therefore the valet who forgot to give Napoleon On the 24th, waterproof boots, was the savior of Russia. On this path of thought, this conclusion is undoubted, just as undoubted as the conclusion that Voltaire, jokingly (without knowing why himself), said that the St. Bartholomew's night came from an upset stomach of Charles IX. But for people who do not allow Russia to be formed at the behest of one person - Peter I, and for the French empire to take shape and the war with Russia to begin at the behest of one person - Napoleon, this reasoning not only seems wrong, unreasonable, but also contrary to the whole being. human. To the question of what constitutes the cause of historical events, another answer appears, which is that the course of world events is predetermined from above, depends on the coincidence of all the wills of the people participating in these events, and that the influence of Napoleons on the course of these events is only external and fictitious. Strange as it may seem at first glance, the assumption that the Bartholomew night, the order for which was given by Charles IX, did not occur by his will, but that it only seemed to him that he ordered it to be done, and that the Borodino massacre of eighty thousand people did not occur by the will of Napoleon (despite the fact that he gave orders about the beginning and course of the battle), and that it seemed to him only that he ordered it - strange as this assumption seems, but human dignity, which tells me that each of us, if not more, then no less a man than the great Napoleon orders to allow this solution of the problem, and historical research abundantly confirms this assumption. In the Battle of Borodino, Napoleon neither shot nor killed anyone. All this was done by the soldiers. So he didn't kill people. The soldiers of the French army went to kill Russian soldiers in the battle of Borodino, not as a result of Napoleon's orders, but of their own free will. The whole army: the French, Italians, Germans, Poles - hungry, ragged and exhausted by the campaign - in view of the army blocking Moscow from them, felt that le vin est tire et qu "il faut le boire. [the wine is uncorked and you need to drink it .] If Napoleon now forbade them to fight the Russians, they would kill him and go to fight the Russians, because it was necessary for them. When they listened to the order of Napoleon, who presented them with consolation for their injuries and death, the words of posterity that they were in the battle near Moscow, they shouted "Vive l" Empereur! just as they shouted "Vive l" Empereur! at the sight of a picture of a boy piercing the globe with a bilbock stick; just as they would shout "Vive l" Empereur! with any nonsense that they would have been told. There was nothing left for them to do but shout "Vive l" Empereur! and go fight to find food and rest for the winners in Moscow. Therefore, it was not because of Napoleon's orders that they killed their own kind. And it was not Napoleon who controlled the course of the battle, because nothing from his disposition was executed and during the battle he did not know about what was happening ahead of him. Therefore, the way in which these people killed each other did not happen at the will of Napoleon, but proceeded independently of him, at the will of hundreds of thousands of people who participated in the common cause. It seemed to Napoleon only that the whole thing was happening according to his will. And therefore the question of whether or not Napoleon had a runny nose is of no greater interest to history than the question of the runny nose of the last Furshtat soldier. Moreover, on August 26, Napoleon's runny nose did not matter, since the testimony of writers that, due to Napoleon's runny nose, his disposition and orders during the battle were not as good as before, are completely unfair. The disposition written out here was not in the least worse, and even better, than all previous dispositions by which battles were won. The imaginary orders during the battle were also no worse than before, but exactly the same as always. But these dispositions and orders seem only worse than the previous ones, because the battle of Borodino was the first that Napoleon did not win. All the most beautiful and thoughtful dispositions and orders seem very bad, and every learned military man criticizes them with a significant air when the battle is not won over them, and the very bad dispositions and orders seem very good, and serious people in whole volumes prove the merits of bad orders, when the battle is won over them. The disposition compiled by Weyrother at the battle of Austerlitz was a model of perfection in writings of this kind, but it was nevertheless condemned, condemned for its perfection, for being too detailed. Napoleon in the battle of Borodino performed his job as a representative of power just as well, and even better, than in other battles. He did nothing detrimental to the course of the battle; he leaned towards more prudent opinions; he did not confuse, did not contradict himself, did not get frightened and did not run away from the battlefield, but with his great tact and experience of the war, he calmly and dignifiedly played his role of seeming boss.

Skills: Thaddeus Ross has excellent shooting skills due to his long service in the military, and he is also good at hand-to-hand combat.
Capabilities: The Red Hulk has the same powers and abilities as the Hulk, except that the Red Hulk is more tactical and reconnaissance. Red has great physical strength and impenetrability. Its strength is so great that it can easily lift over 100 tons, and its impenetrability is large enough to withstand large calibers of bullets and other extreme force impacts. Another of the differences between the Red Hulk and the Savage Hulk is that the Red Hulk's powers do not increase based on his emotional state. Red in a face-to-face fight with the Hulk was able to defeat him. Savage fought other heavyweights as well, such as She-Hulk, Atomic Bomb, Thor, and Uatu.

Also, unlike the Hulk, the Red Hulk emits an excessive amount of gamma radiation. But this can become his own inconvenience, as when too much heat is generated within his body, the Red Hulk begins to feel dizzy, thus becoming vulnerable to attack. The Savage once told the Silver Surfer that his Red's power was to absorb energy, especially gamma, but when Ross absorbed the Silver Surfer's Cosmic Energy, he mastered it quite easily. The Savage tried to absorb the negative energy, but it hurt him and made him weak. This ability was eventually removed from General Ross and Betty Ross by Bruce Banner as it could have killed them.

Biography:General Thaddeus Ross ( General Thaddeus Rossworked in the US Air Force, where he was responsible for the Gamma Bomb project ) , which was managed by Bruce Banner (Hulk) . Ross's daughter, Betty Ross ) fell in love with Bruce despite the fact that her father was against this flirtation with a scientist for whom he had no respect. Since Dr. Banner was transformed into the Hulk ( hulk), General Ross spent many years trying to capture the Green Goliath ( Green Goliath, despite the committed high treason and alliance with the enemies of the Hulk: Leader (Leader), M.O.D.O.K.om (M.O.D.O.C.)and Abomination, Emil Blonsky ( Abomination).

During a battle between Bruce and a deadly mutant, Ross sacrificed himself and gave his blessing to Betty and Bruce. His body was stolen by the Leader and revived to replace the Redeemer. Ultimately, the General returned to normal and returned to the Air Force. He also made peace with Banner, and everything seemed to be fine until Betty died of gamma poisoning. Ross started hunting the Hulk again. But after he found out that the Abomination was guilty of the death of his daughter, he began to help Bruce.

Planet Hulk / World War Hulk

The Hulk was considered a threat on Earth and, to prevent further destruction, the Illuminati superhero group ) decided to exile Bruce into space (the Hulk was tricked into being sent there). After being tested in space, Banner returned to Earth, wanting to bring the Illuminati to justice. After defeating Iron Man ) , Fantastic Four (Fantastic Four)and the Avengers ) , General Ross appeared with the armed forces.

General Ross regretted that people always apologized to the Hulk (Earth's superheroes built a statue of Adamantium in honor of the Hulk) because he believed that he was a threat to humanity.

Ross attacked the Hulk, but he easily defeated the general and his army.

After the battle between the Hulk and the Sentinel ( Sentry) General Ross caught and sent Banner to rehab at Gamma Base ( Gamma Base), (located three miles underground). In fact, Banner was under the control of the Intelligentsia ( intelligentsia).

Red Hulk

Origin

Red Hulk ( redhulk) was created by the Intelligentsia after the World War Hulk event ( World War Hulk. The satellites that Iron Man used to take down and deplete the Hulk were hacked and all the power drained from Bruce, along with the Power Cosmic ( power cosmic) was used to create the Red Hulk.

The satellites tracked a lot of seismic activity in Canada, owned by Krasnoy. There he set up camp. During this time, Ross battled the Abomination and was attacked by the Wendigo. He cut off the last one's head as a warning to the others. This was the first indication that another Hulk existed.

First Appearance: Red Hulk vs. S.H.I.E.L.D.

Members of SHIELD, Maria Hilland Iron Man, along with She-Hulk, Jennifer Walters (She-Hulk , jennifer walters) , General Ross and Leonard Samson (Leonard Samson ) , discovered the body of the Abomination in Russia riddled with fairly large bullet holes. Following the trail of the Hulk and the remaining gamma radiation, Leonard explained to the group what happened at the crime scene. He found it odd that the Hulk left footprints that had glass in them. And also that the Hulk resorted to killing with weapons, and even extremely large ones - stolen from S.H.I.E.L.D.. After a short fight with the Winter Guard (Winter Guard) General Ross discovered a small child, a witness to that fight, who only repeated one word in Russian - Red.

When Maria, Tony Stark and Jennifer discussed the events aboard the (SHIELD Helicopter) Helicarier, the latter was attacked by the Red Hulk. During the fight, he revealed to her that he was not Bruce Banner and that he could kill her any time he wanted. He then threw Walters, leaving her unconscious. Believing that everyone was in danger, Stark ordered Samson and Ross to go to a more secure compartment, as he himself prepared to fight the Red Hulk. Thaddeus deflected the uni-beams ( unibeam) and crashed Iron Man, eventually destroying the Helicopter's stabilizer in the engine room. On the surface of the ship, Red Hulk hit Iron Man ( Iron Man ), sending him into the pilot's cabin. Tony's armor began to malfunction, but Iron Man was rescued by She-Hulk, who told him that the Airline had been infected by a virus that had erased all S.H.I.E.L.D. files. on Red. The Helicopter itself fell on New York, but Iron Man forwarded the trajectory of the ship's fall to the area in New Jersey ( New Jersey).

The strongest among all

Red Hulk followed Rick Jones ) at Gamma Base in Death Valley, Nevada ( Death Valley, Nevada trying to kill him. The General hit Rick, but it only caused Jones to transform into an Atomic Bomb ( a-bomb). During the fight, the two destroyed most of the Gamma Base. The Red Hulk tried to kill Rick, but realized that he could do much more harm to him than the Abominations. Ross' impacts were strong enough to cause a magnitude 10 earthquake, shattering the base of Gamma Base. There, underground, in a chamber, Bruce Banner was held since the World War Hulk. Due to the gases released, Bruce began to transform.

Atomic Bomb and Red continued to fight while Gamma Base unleashed robotic Harpies ( Harpies(with the face of Betty Ross), to attack these two. Rick and Thunderbolt destroyed the Harpies, and while Red continued to fight, the original Hulk appeared. At that moment the Watcher appeared. ) , apparently to follow the fight between the two Hulks. But Thaddeus quickly punched the Watcher in the face, knocking Uatu to the ground. While Rulk attacked Watcher, Hulk grabbed Red and the two started fighting again. As Bruce seemed to have the upper hand, Ross was behind Banner in a lightning move and broke his arm. Red Hulk brought Bruce to the top Golden Gate Bridge in San Francisco (Golden Gate Bridge, San Francisco) where he wanted to kill him with the same weapon that the Abomination had. The Hulk bit the barrel of the cannon, breaking it, and after a short struggle fell into the water.

Before the Thunderer chased the Hulk, Thor, the Norse god, confronted Thaddeus. During the fight, Red easily repulsed all the blows, and, grabbing the top of Thor's hammer, jumped into orbit. There he defeated the Scandinavian with the same hammer, arguing that the rules for lifting the hammer did not apply to him. Rulk defeated the god and left him on the moon, while he himself went back to Earth. His landing in San Francisco, namely in San Andreas, caused the formation of large waves, thereby putting the city in danger.

After the Atomic Bomb brought the Hulk back to land, She-Hulk, the Avengers, and the Fantastic Four were waiting for him. They offered to team up, but Bruce went off to fight the Red Hulk again (he was able to locate him instinctively). Returning Thor began to fight with Thaddeus. Just as the Scandinavian was about to deliver the final blow to his opponent, the Hulk appeared and began to fight Red himself. The Scandinavian god wanted to take revenge on his opponent, but the Atomic Bomb stopped him, saying that the Hulk should do it. Banner outwitted Red Hulk, angering him to the point where he ended up overheating. Bruce quickly landed a few more blows, thus confirming his victory. Tired of fighting, Banner went to the desert while A-Bomb, reverting to human form, tried to tell the Hulk about Ross's true identity, but before he could say those words, Jones was shot by Leonard Samson. Samson dragged Rick away, telling Red that he was a failure and that he was on his own now.

Red Hulk vs Lady Liberators She-Hulk

She-Hulk has assembled a team seeking revenge on Red Hulk. The new incarnation of the Lady Liberators ) included Valkyrie and Thundra. The trio found the General in a bar on Mount Rushmore (Mt. Rushmore) after three days of tracking his gamma trail. After crushing Abe Lincoln's head, stabbing, choking and destroying, and being shot in the face with a shotgun, Red Hulk was never defeated. But soon came Tigra, Sue Storm ) , Black Widow ) , Spider-Woman, Hellcat (Hellcat) and Storm (Storm ) (all those whom the She-Hulk offered to join the Lady Liberators), and brought victory over Red, chaining him. Xandra wanted to behead Ross to restore him to human form, but no one agreed. When dawn broke, Red never changed, but instead broke the chains, knocked out Storm and Jennifer, and, grabbing Zandra, jumped off the mountain. After escaping, he offered Xandra a secret job.

Outlaws vs Defenders

Grandmaster (Grandmaster ) and Collectormade a bet: everyone creates a super-team for the fight. The Grandmaster chose the original Defenders as his champions. ) , and the Collector - Red Hulk, Tiger Shark (Tiger Shark ) , Terrax and Baron Mordo. Thaddeus became the leader of his team and named it the Outlaws ( offenders). The Grandmaster and the Collector, fearing that the opponents were equal in strength, introduced several more participants: Galactus, Dormammu, and The Psycho-Man ) . During a fight between the two teams, Red emerged victorious by killing the Hulk.

The Grandmaster sent the Red Hulk back into the game, and he began to kill everyone, including teammates. Thunderbolt killed Psycho-Man and then cut off Terrax's head with his own axe. Rulk managed to steal the Silver Surfer's board.) and his cosmic power. Before Ross traveled to Dormammu's dimension, he roasted the Tiger Shark, executed Namor, and rode the Surfer's board over Dormammu's head. The General brought Silver's lifeless body to Galactus, wanting to fight, but he simply took away Red Hulk's Cosmic Power and sent him back to Earth. The grandmaster revived all those who were involved in the game and returned them to their rightful places. But after being attacked, he was killed by an angry Red Hulk. During the fight with the Grandmaster, Thaddeus stopped him by hitting the mountaintop.

Domino Chase

Later, Domino (Domino) managed to see how the Red Hulk turned into General Ross. Rulk persistently searched for her after this incident, but she ran away and claimed that she had not seen anything. Then the Thunderer created a team consisting of the Punisher (Punisher), Zandra (Thundra), Deadpool (Deadpool), Elektra (Elektra) and Crimson Dynamo (Crimson Dynamo), calling them ‘Red Code’ (Code Red). Elektra located Domino and Code Red, also learning that Domino had his own team doing the dirty work, X-Force. During the ensuing battle, Wolverine blinded Red. Logan ( Logan ) was about to finish off Ross, but Red She-Hulk shot down Wolverine, thereby saving the General. The remnants of Code Red were left behind when Red led Red Hulk into the sewers, avoiding a fight. The General saw many things similar to himself in the Red She-Hulk. Deep in the sewers, Red jabbed Elektra's sai into a vital artery in Rulk's neck, and soon Samson appeared with the Punisher, Deadpool, and Zandra to confront Red.

Thunderbolt tried to talk to Leonard to convince the group that the others couldn't be trusted. Xandra said she never betrayed the Red Hulk by trapping Samson. When Ross recovered, he joined the fight. Zandra fought Samson while the Punisher and Deadpool, realizing they had been tricked, fled. Red She-Hulk was pursued by Thaddeus. Eventually, after catching her, he climbed up a skyscraper with her. The General wanted to throw off the Red, but decided to try to reason with her. Red She-Hulk turned insane, throwing Thunderbolt back down the drain, where he was found by Elektra. She led him to Domino (who wore the Silver Sable costume). Red learned that Domino was following the leader of the A.I.M. to avenge her husband and had no idea Red would be there. Ross found out that everyone was against him and formed an unofficial alliance with Elektra, Deadpool, Dynamo, and the Punisher. It also became known that the government was working on a plan to get rid of all mutants after learning that this race could eventually outnumber all humans.

Fall of the Hulks/World War Hulks

The Red Hulk was later seen fighting against the armored Thunderbolt Ross. He had an advantage at the beginning of the fight, but when Ross revealed who he was, he was killed by Red. It was later revealed that Rulk was in league with Bruce Banner, and that killing Ross was part of their plan. But the collaboration with Banner was shaky, and only existed because both needed each other to complete their mission to end the Intelligentsia (the team that Red Hulk once worked with). Red continued to carry out missions in alliance with Banner - including a trip to the base of the secret C..I.I., which not only cloned the body of MODOK (M.O.D.O.K.), but also created the Space Hulk. After a bit of a fight, the Atomic Bomb and the General returned to Banner, reporting the events that had happened to them, after which the Red Hulk revealed to Bruce that he had a daughter, Lyra (Lyra).

Rulk went to the Baxter Building to ensure that no one was harmed during the kidnapping of Reed Richards by the Intelligence. Red went to the Thing, Ben Grimm, to warn him of the impending threat he would soon face, but Ben didn't trust Ross and continued his attacks. The Red Hulk finally convinced Grimm that together they should re-seal the portal to the Negative Zone that the Trapster had pierced through Grimm. The general tried to absorb the negative energy, but only burned himself, becoming weaker. And so, when the Creature was in danger, the Thunderer saved him.

While trying to save T'Challa from being kidnapped by the Red Ghost and his minions, Ross was attacked by members of the X-Men who thought Red was the enemy, thus thwarting his rescue operation. Rulk received some help from the Red Ghost's ape-like companions, but was later attacked as well. The Red Hulk killed one of the great apes, Mikhlo, infuriating the owner, for which the Red Ghost crushed the insolent heart. When the Thunderbolt woke up, he learned that the Ghost not only ran away with T "Challa, but also kidnapped Hank McCoy (Hank McCoy). Red returned to report everything to Banner, the field of which Bruce tried to convince the General that the Intelligentsia was using him in the same way as old green Hulk.

Thaddeus soon attacked the Intelligentsia's lair - stolen from S.H.I.E.L.D. A helicopter renamed the Hellcarrier that hovered over the state of Washington, D.C. Red destroyed the gamma android Mad Thinker, but was captured by the Space Hulk. Ross was then connected to a machine that transformed, with his help, a small army of C.I.I. into hulk-like monsters. Several superheroes of the Hulk version were also created. After that, the heroes decided to attack the Thunderer. By defeating "hulked out" heroes (Thor, Ms. Marvel, Captain America, Cyclops, Storm, Spider-Man, Wolverine, etc.) ) Red She-Hulk appeared and attacked Red. Completely exhausted by that time, Thaudeus attempted to fight her, but his strength failed him. Since Red had the same ability to absorb energy, she decided to use it against Rulk. After receiving all the energy, Red Hulk's real identity was revealed - General Thaddeus "Thunderbolt" Ross. Red She-Hulk was originally going to kill Ross, but after discovering his true identity, she revealed hers. It turned out that she was his daughter, Betty Ross. Betty left Ross on the floor as the Space Hulk showed up. He grabbed a capable Ross, but Thaddeus began to release energy, regaining his power. The General quickly turned into the Hulk and tore the Cosmic in two.

The helicopter, breaking down from the battles of the "Hulk-like" heroes and Banner's Avengers, was doomed to fall, and Red, meanwhile, reached the flight deck, finding the Leader. Ross captured him and absorbed all of his gamma radiation, thereby returning to his human form, after which he left the Leader, as he would spend the rest of his life as an ordinary person. After that, Red went to the White House, to the Oval Office. He took out Glenn Talbot (who was on the air during the attack by the Hulked AIMarines), informing everyone that he had taken control.

Last Standing Hulk

As Rulk was about to take control and "save this country", the Hulk ripped off the wall of the Oval Office to stop him, forcing the General to fight him. Red She-Hulk, She-Hulk, Lyra, and Atomic Bomb accompanied the Hulk. The Hulk and Ross fought for a short amount of time, and Bruce had already started to win, but when Banner knocked Ross into the ground, Betty was called out. When Red also tried to intervene, she was stopped by Jennifer, who believed that Bruce and Thaddeus should be allowed to finish their battle on their own. This infuriated Betty, and she attacked Jen. Seeing that his daughter was in danger, Ross got a second wind, but he was thrown across the city by the Hulk, who assured that he would "put an end to this."

Banner and the General continued to fight from the other side of town, stopping the Wizard, Ghost and Trapster during their bank robbery. The Red Hulk charged at the Hulk with a crushing blow, thus creating an atomic explosion. Thinking he had won, Ross climbed out of the resulting crater, claiming he was now the strongest. But then the Hulk came up, asking, "Is that all you got?" and finished with the General with one thunderous pop. Afterwards, the Hulk revealed that he knew Ross' true identity from the start. The fake death and funeral was Banner's way of luring the General into a trap - if he revealed himself as the Red Hulk in public, he would be hanged for treason.

Scorched earth

Later, Ross was introduced to Steve Rogers. Thaddeus was in the restored underground Gamma base, locked up under high security. The Hulk told Rogers that Ross could be a good addition to his various missions due to his skills. After all, Thaddeus is a patriot who will "sacrifice even himself for his country", just like Captain America. As such, Banner recommended that Red Hulk be accepted into the Avengers. But Steve decided that Ross wasn't ready yet. Banner, for greater security, turned on the anti-gravity mechanism in the General's cell. Three days later Rogers returned to see if Thaddeus had calmed down. Meeting with him in person, Steve insisted that the Red Hulk return to human form. He did it, but only out of respect for Cap. Banner immediately injected something into Ross and he hung up. While he was unconscious, Bruce worked on removing the General's ability to absorb energy, claiming that this power could soon kill him. Disagreeing, Ross understood that Banner was right, and also took care of Betty, in order to then do this procedure for her. Rogers told the General what plans he had for him, and also that he did not trust him (nor did the public). Ross was exposed to the Intelligentsia's plan, called Scorched Earth. The plan took effect as soon as the Leader and MODOK lost their power. A series of cataclysmic events around the world would then occur, eventually destroying the Earth.

When the experimental facility in Santa Clara, California went out of control, Banner and Rogers sent the Red Hulk there as his first mission. Rogers attempted to get in touch with Iron Man, Tony Stark, and report Thaddeus' presence in their plans, but there was great interference in Santa Clara. Therefore, as soon as Stark's armor detected the presence of the Red Hulk, he immediately attacked the General. Ignoring the actual problem, Iron Man devoted all his attention to fighting the Red Hulk, who seemed to have infected his armor with a biological program, due to which Tony remotely controlled the suit until he figured out the techno-morphs (technomorphs ). Finally, after realizing that their conflict was a misunderstanding, Ross and Stark teamed up. Iron Man sent the General to the central grid, which Red destroyed in order to get rid of the techno-morphs.

Red's next mission was to stop two comets heading for Earth thanks to a black hole created by MODOK and the Leader. Although the black hole was closed, the comets still needed to be destroyed. Banner and Rogers sent Thaddeus and Thor to solve this problem. Upon seeing the Red Hulk, Thor flew into a rage and attacked him. Banner stopped the fight with a sharp hologram of Galactus, drawing their attention. After the fight, Thor opened a portal for the comets. In space, the General and the Scandinavian separated, after which Red collided with the Observer.

The observer informed him that the black hole was still open and that it could harm other areas of the universe, but Uatu was obligated not to interfere. When Red broke loose and began to fall into a black hole, Thor saved him, returning them both to Earth. There, Banner reported that the black hole had been closed, suggesting that the Observer may have opened the hole as some kind of revenge on Red Hulk for punching him.

Later, at Gamma Base, Ross asked Banner about his daughter. At this point, Bruce was notified of another Scorched Earth event and sent Ross along with Steve Rogers to Namor. During the trip, Rogers told Ross that if they closed the Scorched Earth program, Thaddeus would have another chance to continue working. Together, Namor and Red teamed up to shut down a drilling that threatened to expose the methane under the sea floor, mixing with magma and destroying not only the atmosphere of Atlantis, but the entire planet. The "drill" turned out to be Klaw's sonic construct, in the form of a giant glowing eel. After identifying the source of the energy, Red and Namor closed all the holes that had been created.
