“Josh Austin: Dr. Banner will be a huge threat when he’s unleashed in Marvel Puzzle Quest’ this week. It’s awesome when Bruce transforms into The Hulk and starts rampaging across the board doing massive damage, and the bits that makes Bruce a 5-star will make him a relentless threat to his opposition.”

I like how he’s unpredictable. Describes the Hulk pretty well. Looks like he’s going to fun. But when the Hulk is downed and returns to Banner, does that mean he can become Hulk again? Would he just keep going back and forth or is transforming a one time thing per match?

Agreed.

It reads like once Hulk is defeated, he reverts back to Banner. But does Banner retain the hit points he had before turning into the hulk?

And can Banner turn back into hulk more than once?

Am I reading it right that the player gets a AI controlled extra move at the start of every turn?

Nitpicking time… Banner is Purple, Green, black… But Hulk appears to only have green and red. Does he have a third color passive/ability?

I think 3rd - When the Hulk is downed, he returns to Banner form. icon_e_biggrin.gif

From the pictures in the article, no.

One question I have is can you have Bruce Banner (The Hulk) and The Hulk (Indestructible) on the same team? (not that they’d necessarily work well or not, just curious) Don’t the characters that can’t be together generally have the non-parenthetical names match?

I love the transformation back and forth!

Hitting banner should either: create green tiles, or reduce the transform countdown. (or both)

Better question: Hulk goes into Latest Legends. Does he join Cap/IM/Goblin or does he bump goblin into the Classic legends?

His title in the screenshots is The Hulk, so he’ll probably be The Hulk (Bruce Banner), which would exclude him from being used with 3* Hulk and Cho.

You’re right. Thanks for pointing that out.
I was going off of the last question/answer in the article.
EDIT: And the title to this thread.

So what’s the release like? Is it just ‘surprise he’s in latest LTs!’ ?

That’s pretty much it. Apart from Cap and IM46, 5*s haven’t gotten any sort of release event.

Bummer, I get not having events for 4s because of the speed of releases, but if 5s are supposed to be special, give them each a tough Growth Industry type event to launch.

Another variant! Yay!

So when 1* Hulk/Captain America/etc.? icon_mrgreen.gif

Yelena got kicked for a reason.

Awesome! How do we get him?

$$$$$$ of course.

Ironman and cap had the civil war event, one can hope they rerun ultron or galatus for hulk. However, the sneak peak already has meet rocket and groot and dark avengers heroics for upcoming pve events. Seem unlikely

Yay! Another 5* I’ll ever get because rng hates me…(3 58 since christmas (with a lot of tokens opened))

Great! He can keep these guys company

I’ll get it, RNG loves to make sure I pay for every roster slot.

It also loves to make sure I don’t get many more covers…it can join my seven other 255’s with three covers or less. Horray, another 5* that is impossible to cover.

Demiurge’s love affair with whales continues while the rest of us plebs can just watch and feel left out.

Throw us a fucking bone, guys. Come on. Focus on ONE thing other than new characters for a second…just a second!
