>> There's a bit in one of the She-Hulk comics that I remember... Hulk was post-battle sad, and She-Hulk just hugged him. Naturally Hulk freaked out a bit, something like "No hug! Hulk Smash. Hulk always smash everything! No! Hug!" <<
Wow. Thanks for sharing.
>> She told him he couldn't smash her, that it was safe to hug her back... and got enveloped in a huge bear hug with an absolutely joyous "HULK HUG !" <<
That is so cute.
>> Hulk might well be indestructible, but emotionally it's all too easy to hurt him... and it's perfectly natural to want to comfort the big kid. <<
Yes. Some of the strongest characters physically -- like Steve -- are the most vulnerable emotionally. It always frustrates me when people overlook that. There's no such thing as an overpowered character, just underpowered opposition and writers who don't know what the merry heck they're doing.
