Mark Rufallo Selfie Set She Hulk
Off topic: just got an e-mail from editorial. Said that my letter will be printed in the next issue (48), but sadly without my drawing to accompany it. Not sure why exactly, I don't think it's too bad or graphic. Maybe there are too many letters and just not enough room for the drawiing, which is understandable. Eh, well at least Al said that he liked it: "That’s a great pic of everyone’s favorite Devil."

Does anyone else feel that there have been too many different Hulk personalities?
As long as Spider-Man getting a new costume every year, I wouldn't call that "too many". Only three are present in this book (Joe, Devil and Child), with Professor, World Breaker, Guilt and Hulk from Secret Empire being left out.
But if open Incredible Hulk by Paul Jenkins, there's a whole zoo of Hulk personalities... now THAT would have been too much. It would have turned into some sort of "Dial H for Hulk" pretty quickly lol
I mean it isn't a bad thing, is it? It allows every author to come up with something new without completely destroying the character. It's easier to write a new persona instead of making existing one act OOS. Plus it opens doors (green ones) for more interesting situations to happen. For example, Professor and Joe couldn't be more different from one another. Planet Hulk wouldn't be as half as good if it was your typical "Hulk Smash" persona.
The multiple alters are just a tool that lets you tell more stories with Hulk. Savage and Devil are never going to work for the mob but Joe would. Planet Hulk was better for having a Hulk who was capable of speaking in complete sentences. And Immortal Hulk definitely benefitted from pushing Devil to the center. I don’t think it’s been overused so far, only 4 personalities: Bruce, Devil, Joe, and Savage have been used in this run, and it’s worked fine.
For when my rants on the forums just aren’t enough: https://thevindicativevordan.tumblr.com/
Billy Milligan and Kevin from "Split" had 24 personalities.
It doesn't come up as a surprise that a person with MPD can have more than 1 personality (plus thank you, Samson, for creating 1 more), again- for the most part we follow Savage (Child/Dumb) Hulk. Joe is popping up here and there. But personalities like World Breaker, Guilt and Mindless are so rare that they have been used just a few times. Devil had only short cameos before Ewing brought him to the spotlight. I don't see a problem here, if you don't like other personas so much you can just ignore them or skip issues that they appear in. But this is a major part of the Hulk character himself, you can't just erase all the personas and leave Savage and Gray.

We did get Green Scar too although technically it wasn't really him.

Kinda, but I wish it was actually him and not Leader taking his form. I wonder if it was also him punching Xemnu in issue 33.
Yeah, I don't think it'd get cut for being too graphic considering the level of gore/body horror IH already has.

Hi. Looking for some help here. Was Tony in the newest issue of Hulk with the Avengers or was it just a few members?
"We live in a world of cowards. We live in a world full of small minds who are afraid. We are ruled by those who refuse to risk anything of their own. Who guard their over bloated paucities of power with money. With false reasoning. With measured hesitance. With prideful, recalcitrant inaction. With hateful invective. With weapons. F@#K these selfish fools and their prevailing world order." Tony Stark
