- What purpose does Rick Jones serve?
I'm not trying to be a dick I just wanna know, why does he exist? He seems like that annoying lil kid they put into an awesome movie to have people relate to but in the end everybody hates him. Swirly Swag! |
Rick Jones gave Hulk (and many other heroes) an everyman they could connect with. Granted, in some respects that could be considered the same as the "lovable little kid", but he's generally written with a little more depth/purpose. "If Batman and Taker fought every day for a year, the final score would be Batman: 364, Taker: 1 (at Wrestlemania)." - The Caveman |
Rick Jones is how Hulk got his powers (Banner "saved" him from the gamma blast). He became Captain Marvel for a bit, and now he is A-Bomb. "And he's pretty hott when he's a chick" - sephy37 Currently Reading: Post-Frank Miller Daredevil |
I swear he has mass what if not changing this till we have mr perfect dolph ziggler 2/7/12 |
He was Marvel's Jimmy Olsen. |
He's also a multi-platinum recording artist. Bunny Factory has got the sounds that you want in your face! bunnyfactory.bandcamp.com |
Just having sex with Marlo Thomas is enough for me. Well, that and the bachelor party issue... Yes, I'm a comic character posing on a comic book message board. How's your 4th wall holding up? Official Deadpool of CAGN. |
At one point, he was one of the few people who could talk down the Hulk and make him transform back into Banner. http://i.imgur.com/durPn.jpg http://i.imgur.com/W9OM1.jpg http://img715.imageshack.us/img715/3237/1284683625869.jpg |
Lo_Key00 let me educate you about Rick Jones. Incredible Hulk would be around today if Rick Jones was playing witih his harmonica at that gamma bomb testing site Rick Jones was important during the Kree Skrull War days back in the 1980s. Rick and Marlo If Rick didnt turn into a Hulk to fight Bruce Banner/Incredible Hulk back in the 1980s then the Incredible Hulk comic would be short and have been really boring without any other enemy to fight with besides Thunderbolt Ross Technically been an original G member since 1998 before CJayC left |
Fairly obvious. He's there as someone for young readers to relate to. Been the eq of Jimmy Olsen, Billy Batson (during Marvels contribution the the Capt. Marvel fiasco), helped Hulk, CA also don't forget the Teen Brigade, they were even in Avengers#1 "..ain't the kind of place to raise your kids. In fact, it's cold as Hell. |
