    Thunderbolt Ross

    Character » Thunderbolt Ross appears in 1614 issues.

    Thaddeus "Thunderbolt" Ross is former U.S. military general. He is father of Bruce Banner's love Betty Ross and was archenemy of the Incredible Hulk. Ross made a deal with villains to be transformed into a Hulk himself. As the ruthless and cunning Red Hulk, he attempted to destroy his nemesis and take control of the country before seeking redemption as an Avenger. After leaving the team, he formed his own group of Thunderbolts with other Anti-Heroes. He was recently depowered by Doctor Green.

    What happens to his mustache when he changes into Rhulk?

    I mean when he transforms into Red Hulk, his mustache magically disappears as he is clean shaven.

    What's the logic in that? does it go in his lips or do the hairs fall off then when he becomes Ross again the mustache grows back?

    It's as bad as the same thing on Trial Of The Incredible Hulk

    @Jakesully1981:

    It appears that his mustache recedes into his skin, however, I personally think he sheds it off, then regrows it when he reverts back into human form. Just think of how a werewolf grows fur when it transforms, but reverse the process.

    It goes to a place where only cool mustaches can go.

    I don't know about Rulk's magical moustache but it's no where near as awesome as Colossus's metallic beard!

    Great question.

    Ross having a mustache in human form but not in Rulk form is lame.

    @PowerHerc:

    I guess it makes more sense now as his possible-alternate future self has a mustache.

    Then again, the future one looks like he might have a suit on, so....yeah...

    CV: Where doesThunderbolt Ross' mustache gowhen he turns into Red Hulk?Will your Hulk ever have a mustache?
    MW: Thunderbolt’s mustache goes into the Negative Zone, where it enjoys its own separate adventures that will hopefully someday be told. Our Hulk needs no mustache. Muttonchops, perhaps.
