i can't believe we've gotten this far without busting out some Keown....
his run was awesome through and through, but I preferred Mcleod's inks over Farmers.... Farmer's made the art look a little more cartoony.

I thought Dale Keown does a great Hulk, but I don't necessarily find him a definitive Hulk artist only because everything he draws is yum-tastic. So, to me his Hulk kicked major tail, but so did everything he drew. I particularly liked his women drawings.

My memory of one image that sticks out in my head might be all distorted at this point, but was there ever a cover where Mr Fixit is on it, kind of a side view while tipping his hat down to someone else? If so what issue was that? I know that info lacks detail but that is all I can remember. If not ignore this post lol
I think it was Keown also....Last edited by Test of Strength; 11-02-2010 at 06:36 PM.

Kaare Andrews did some truly spectacular covers for that run.

If it was Keown, you might be thinking of issues #395-396, where the Merged Hulk, along with a few members of the Pantheon, went back to Las Vegas as "Mr. Fixit" to investigate the murder of Michael Berengetti. Originally Posted by T.S.X.

Keown was especially noteworthy for establishing distinct looks for all the major incarnations that appeared throughout his tenure--the gray Hulk looked different than the savage Hulk, and both looked different than the merged Hulk from #377 onward. Few artists have achieved this level of differentiation with regard to the multiple incarnations since. No small feat.

Keown definitely went out of his way to make each Hulk stand out visually.
The Gray Hulk had the bowl cut, enlarged brow (no eyebrows showing) and smaller in mass and height.
The Green Hulk had the shaggy, full head of hair, eyebrows and larger in mass and height.
The Merged Hulk shared the qualities of Banner and both Hulks; bowl cut of the Gray, green skin from the Green, and Banner's facial features; and the mass and height of both the Green and Gray Hulks.

Other than Sal Buscema's renderings of the mindless Hulk during the Crossroads era, I can't think of a more vicious looking Hulk -- courtesy of Todd McFarlane from IH #340.
The snarl on the Hulk's face -- the teeth gnashing -- it makes you think you can hear the enamel grinding and his knuckles popping while making that fist.
The actual fight -- eh. So-so...
