The Incredible Hulk Returns

1988Film93 minHulkUnbound

Banner is within reach of a cure when a former student turns up with a hammer and a Viking attached to it.

The first of three television films made after the series ended, and the first crossover in live-action Marvel television. Donald Blake summons Thor, who is loud, arrogant and entirely uninterested in Banner’s problem, and the film is built around the two of them being incompatible.

It was intended as a pilot for a Thor series that did not happen.
