You Wouldn't Like Me When I'm Angry
2009-09-03 10:35:29









 

HEY GANG,

In honor of two very special events, I decided to go through my old archives and dig up some goodies! 1st It's our very own Alex Starbuck's Birthday today. 2nd. The release of MARVEL MASTERWORKS: THE INCREDIBLE HULK VOL. 1.

AND HOW AM I HONORING THESE EVENTS YOU MAY ASK? Well, back in the 70's BOTH Alex and I auditioned for the Hulk TV show! We made it pretty far in the casting process. However the producer felt everyone would keep confusing Alex's massively-chiseled frame with the Hulk's and no one would ever buy me as a scientist (just check the grammar of these blogs!). But we did make it as far as filming the credits! (Click on the images to the left!)

So go out and celebrate and pick up all these great books:

  • MARVEL MASTERWORKS: THE INCREDIBLE HULK VOL. 1
  • WOLVERINE: FLIES TO A SPIDER
  • NYX: NO WAY HOME
  • SQUADRON SUPREME: BRIGHT SHINING LIES
  • PUNISHER: WAR ZONE
  • SPIDER-MAN/MARY JANE: ...YOU JUST HIT THE JACKPOT

See you next week,

Nelson Ribeiro

 

absolutely terrifying

How could they not take you as the scientist! So what lines did they have you read off for the audition?

"How could they not take you as the scientist! So what lines did they have you read off for the audition?"

It basically went like this:

director: action!

Nelson: Hulk get mad! Hulk get Strong! Grrrrrrrr!....and scene!

director: Cut. you're gorgeous babe.
