MORE COMICS ARE
WAITING IN THE WINGS

USA TODAY, February
15th, 1990
With Sunday's broadcast
of "The Death of the Incredible Hulk" the green behemouth may
have finally met his maker. But he's leaving a wide open field
for comic book stars to fill.
Like, say, She-Hulk.
Yes, Beauty and the Beast all in the same body.
A two-hour ABC movie
pilot introducing that character begins shooting later this month--with
Hulk star Bill Bixby expected to appear, to donate the tainted
blood that sets this distaff version in motion.
Is this a sign that
network programmers, who we all know are arrested adolescents,
are flipping through comics for inspiration these days?
