Hulk Smash!

I don't often draw characters that aren't mine, but I recently checked out this new Avengers cartoon and it got my mind going on the Incredible Hulk.
One of my favorite parts of the Hulk's mythos is that the angrier he gets, the stronger he becomes, putting the upper register of his powers right up there at infinity. Here you see my vision of the big green machine raging at about a 9: at 10 he just bulks into a pulsating green ball with fingers and a smushed-in angry face.
At first I was drawing the "SMASH" in big stone letters crumbling under the weight of him, but it just looked so Schoolhouse Rock, I had to go in a different direction.

The trademark on the Incredible Hulk is owned by Marvel, which is owned by Disney, who's majority shareholder is Steve Jobs, who also runs the same company that made the computer I used to create this image. Thus, should anyone take issue with me posting their trademarked character on my little blog, it's their own fault for giving me the means to do so. Nyeh.
