Over at the Vault of Horror, we find this photo of the re-booted Hulk:

The image prompted the Vault’s webmaster to comment:

With a script rewrite by Edward Norton–who takes over the role of Bruce Banner–rumor has it this new one seeks to undo the damage wrought by Ang Lee’s overly sober and somewhat pretentious outing. Also, as you can see, there has been a concerted effort to step up the CGI work, which was another oft-cited letdown in the original. I also notice the big guy looks a lot more like he does in the classic comics.
Despite being marketed as a restart of the franchise, the plot of the picture does seem to pick up where the last one left off. Although I did enjoy the first one a little more than most, it certainly didn’t live up to my expectations. Nevertheless, I am giving Marvel Entertainment and new director Louis Leterrier the benefit of the doubt. It does seem to be an earnest attempt to respond to fan complaints, most notably with the excellent casting of Norton. The film hits theaters on June 13 (my ninth wedding anniversary–Hey, what an excellent way to celebrate, right, sweetheart….??)
