DC 12 had a scenario posited by Dr Manhattan which seemed like a rehashed version of Chuck Austen's Gog arc where Doomsday was 'inspired' by Superman's example in striving to save him from the mad 'godly' Gog only using the corresponding Marvel characters. Did Geoff intend to throw shade on the Hulk's outsider status by cementing it further by indicating him perishing in a attempt to save the ultimate hero of another universe from the 'invaders' of the MU thus positing that the Hulk does not fit in MU and is forever going to be the outsider who does not belong?
