What If...?

[Enevhar Aldarion]

You all are just lucky it is not inch-worm Hulk, where you cut him in two and two Hulks regrow. A smart, evil Hulk would then be the true HYDRA. Intentionally chop of his hands and feel over and over and you have a Hulk army. lol

Also, is his brain is destroyed and it regenerates, that is just the tissue regrowing. Shouldn't all his knowledge and memories be gone, because you can't just regrow those with the new brain, and Hulk would just be in a vegitative state? Or would it be like a case of total amnesia that cannot be cured?

I thought all these were connected somehow. I think I like it better that they are not.

The Hulk in comics has perhaps the best regeneration ability,

Incredible? Certainly. Unkillable? Hardly. Here are 15 times someone killed The Incredible Hulk.

if he could fully regenerate from a single cell or collection thereof (his enlarged blood and heart cells should still be around, after all)

Taken to the natural conclusion, any Hulk would lead to infinite Hulks. If one cell could regenerate an entire Hulk, then just being alive would lead to more Hulks.

Your body sloughs off cells on a daily basis. Blowing his nose would create Hulks. Spitting would create Hulks. A blood sample would create Hulks. Even pooping would create Hulks.

The "he can regenerate from just one cell" trope is one of the least thought-out tropes in comics.

I'm not sure a link to 15 times that the Hulk has died is good evidence of him not being hard to kill. his track record of not staying dead is pretty good.

No, nothing in the history of What If? has had a connected story that I know of. Maybe an idea gets revisited in the comic book version. I think the connected theory comes from the 9th episode where

Spoiler

Vision and Ultron are supposed to merge together and a multidimensional team of heroes is assembled to stop him. I think that is where some of the new characters return for a second episode.

Eventually don’t all favored super heroes get regeneration or resurrection of some sort?

Several of them are alternate universes. And in others, Hulk doesn't come back for any reasons of his own doing

The only time they interconnect is when Uatu brings them together for a Hyundai commercial to fight zombies.

Well, that got dark.
