Rip Haywire by Dan Thompson for March 23, 2019

And in the TV version they renamed him David Banner because some network executive thought the name Bruce sounded gay!

“Why does Stan Lee insist on giving all of his characters first and last names that start with the same letter? Bruce Banner, Reed Richards, Sue Storm, Stephen Strange, Otto Octavius, Silver Surfer, Peter Parker, oh, and worst of all, J. Jonah Jameson Jr.”

“Not to mention, Dum Dum Dugan, Green Goblin, Matt Murdock, Pepper Potts, Victor Von Doom, oh and worst of all Millie the Model”

“Fantastic Four, Daredevil, Invincible Iron Man, Happy Hogan, Curt Connors, and worst of all, Fin Fang Foom!”

You know how to whistle, don’t you Steve, uh, Rip…nevermind!

Is this the end of Rip Haywire???

So, are we going to treated to another reboot, ala the “Catpocalypse”?

Bill Bixby, Stan Lee… I miss those guys. I can hear the ending theme now. It’s perfect for this strip.

KA-WHISTLE!

Walking down the road…… the road to adventure!

David Bruce Banner a fugitive.

As a Youtuber I follow described the show, “a homeless man is bullied by every person he meets.” As a child of the 70s & 80s, I remember “The Incredible Hulk” very well; the Youtuber wasn’t wrong. Lol!

Its called “The Lonely Man”. An appropriate name.
