Anyone else here not impressed by the quality of artwork on The Hulk movie merchandise? It's hardly getting me jazzed up to go see this thing. I mean it looks like some art director downloaded a bunch of fan art and just slapped it onto various toys and book covers. How is this horrible art making its way out to the market? The Hulk is a comic book character drawn many times over by some very talented artists. Why didn’t the advertisers just reprint some of the classic Hulk images from before? At least they would have been drawn well.

I have a Big Gulp with a picture of The Hulk in front of me now and the top right part of his face is melting toward the left. The mouth is all crooked; the face muscles look bizarre; and his hand has a chunk missing. It’s a mess.
Rob Liefield teaching now?

That is a COOL sculpture. Where might someone obtain more information about this sculpture? My daughter wanted the foam rubber Hulk fists that make noise when you hit them. I think I've had more fun with them, running around the house yelling "HULK SMASH".

That scuplture is amazing!! Was that done by Bowen's (sp?) shop? They do a number of incredible statues. If I only had the money...

The most interesting thing about this sculpture is the steps the artist was kind enough to take during execution.
