    Hey all. 
    So this summer I am going to be attempting to catch up with 2 character that I haven't given the attention they deserve which are Hulk and Daredevil. 
     
    Last time I remember the Hulk (ages agoOo!), he and Banner hated each other (I believe nowadays they are attempting to "work together") he was mindless (although I've heard that he has his World-breaker personality intact) and basically his transformations were uncontrollable still. 
     
    Is this still how the Hulk/Banner relationship is shown in comics? Bruce gets upset and transforms into Hulk until he calms down and transforms back? Or is it more like Thor in which Hulk rarely transforms back into Banner? 
    I would hope some changes have been made as the randomness factor is not too appealing..=\. 
    Would appreciate any help on this topic. Thanks all.

    As a character Hulk is in an endless cyclical loop, so you can expect the exact same things from when you last knew about him.
     
    Only differences are that the transformation is now done willingly, whenever Banner has to smash he transforms into Hulk, when there's no need to smash he transforms into Banner.
     
    Most important thing you should know, there are several new hulks now, they all suck, except the classic She-Hulk, but that goes without saying.
     
    Off-Topic: If you're going to get back into Daredevil also, then skip Shadowland, god, what a disaster !

    Quick question before I get back into these books (giving Green Hulk a last chance) 
     
    Does Banner have any influence whatsoever on the Hulk persona?

    Both persona are strongly linked depending on the emotion of the other.
