I'm thinking of having the Hulk story revolve around the tea ceremony and flower arranging.
Hey, ehm, wait a minute....

Tea ceremony?? Flower arranging????
Are we talking about the Hulk?! Big, muscular guy, getting green and even more muscular when being angry !?!
A bit, let's say, on the clumsy side, yes !?!

How does that fit, I wonder... :shock:

There were two characters I wanted to work with. A feudal Spider-man was my second choice. He would, of course, be a ninja. However, I felt everybody wanted to do Spidey, so I went with the big green guy.

Probably a good idea. "Spider-Ninja" is neat and all, but formatting a character like the Hulk into ancient Japan sounds more fun.

That being said, I'd trade in the entire run of WORLD WAR HULK for the sight of the Hulk participating in a tea ceremony.
