The Incredible Hulk (1968) #268
#right before this Rick takes note of how the process Bruce created to forcibly turn the Hulk back into him hurts the Hulk
#and Betty says that Bruce wouldn’t have built it like that if there were any other way
#and Rick expresses doubts about that and emphasizes that Bruce hates the Hulk
#it’s significant for this conflict that Betty is completely going along with Bruce
#and at this point the only reason she doesn't resent the Hulk for ruining Bruce's life is because she's considering them one and the same
#whereas I think Rick doesn't need to consider them to be one and the same to find the Hulk sympathetic
#the fact that Bruce hates the Hulk while their joint friends don't isn't usually brought up
#I think that generally speaking what Bruce wants would be considered to make more sense because it's normal
#and if anything therefore he's entitled to it
#whereas imagining a peaceful life for the Hulk is difficult in the first place
#let alone actually making it a reality
#because he's abnormal and causes difficulties the solution to those difficulties being to eradicate him is acceptable
#also Rick is hinging his support of the Hulk here largely on that he didn't ask to be born
#what the Hulk's done that Rick would owe him for isn't well-defined
#we actually do know what the Hulk would think of this plan if he understood it
#because he's said several times in recent issues that he doesn't want to die
#honestly because Bruce and the Hulk hate each other any solution that would be fair to both of them is hard to imagine
#but frankly sorry I personally am more sympathetic to the Hulk
#like Bruce has had his life destroyed and has to go through waking up and not knowing what chaos the Hulk has caused
#when he didn't have the self-control to keep the Hulk repressed
#but the Hulk is the one that's actually present and is suffering all of the time
#also significantly he is essentially a child
