Solomon Grundy. Born on a Monday, christened on Tuesday, married on Wednesday, took ill on Thursday, grew worse on Friday, died on Saturday, buried on a Sunday. And that was the end of Solomon Grundy. Had to throw in the story to go with the superpowered zombie.
@@josephchavez1489 Zombies are a big part of Haitian mythology and it's their place of origin. Though mythology isn't a completely right word since zombies started as real people drugged into serving their bokor ("necromancer"). From that derives the myth of zombies being walking dead who do their master's bidding.
He was co-created by award-winning SF writer Alfred Bester at a time when the Comics Code Authority proscribed the portrayal of the walking dead in books
Solomon Grundy is at once one of the most silly DC villains and one of the most interesting. His powers vary tremendously every time he gets resurrected from Slaughter Swamp. Usually, he's dim-witted but huge and powerful. But sometimes, he's much less powerful, slender, but is downright cunning and patient. Which makes him even more dangerous. Sometimes Batman can take him down, but rarely they've shown him fighting toe to toe with Superman. I actually like the fact that the DC heroes don't know what to expect from his next manifestation when he once again returns from the swamp.
A corpse of a vengeful guy that was revived by the lazarus pit while becoming one with the swamp, that after being defeated always comes back to life wiser and stronger despite being a zombie with early life amnesia, that can fight toe to toe with supes and batz, that have the potential to become as strong as god hulk and live as long as supes? You sure took your time to find out he is the real deal, mate
The Hulk is another obvious ripoff, so-much-so that the Hulk was originally-- you guessed it, "GRAY" colored and sporting Grundy's "torn clothing and unintelligible dialect." No way to dispute this, you can't change history or Marvel's extensive pattern of underhanded stealing.
Actually if anything, The hulk is a ripoff Grundy. Grundy came before the hulk. Most DC characters came before Marvel characters. All of them did I think
Born on a monday,christened on a tuesday,grew sick on a wednesday,got worse on a thursday died on a friday,buried on a sunday ,I missed something somewhere not sure what
I always liked Solomon Grundy in the Justice League animated series. Hawkgirl always trying to find the humanity in him was one of the reasons I kept watching the series.
Every time Grundy is "killed" his body is regenerated at the swamp. Every time he regenerates, his power and his personality are different from before. Sometimes he's weaker, sometimes he's stronger. Sometimes he's dumb as a rock, other times he's quite intelligent. Also, every time he comes back, he has no memory of his previous life, so he doesn't know who anybody is.
Solomon Grundy is like the Hulk in some ways, one of them being he's a misunderstood person with incredible strength and a big heart, at least to his friends. I once heard that a version of Solomon Grundy actually HELPED the Justice League.
Samuel Ketner But when Grundy first appeared he was just a zombie in later additions he began looking and acting like the Hulk so at a certain point Grundy took elements from the Hulk.
They heavily implied later, with the third GL that his weakness of wood was because he was attacked by a wood plank and thought the power did not affect wood and by that thinking, the ring made exist. Originally he couldn't affect wood but they changed it because they wanted GL to not have the yellow handicap anymore.
*****....no..... Cyrus Gold was the one who was given the Mirukuru who nearly killed Detective Lance. You're thinking of the Doll Maker, who was a completely separate villain
Born on a Monday, Christened on Tuesday, Married on Wednesday, Took ill on Thursday, Grew worse on Friday, Died on Saturday, Buried on Sunday ....and that was the end of Solomon Grundy :)
There are many retelling's of Grundy's origin but, my favorite is the story of how he used to be a mob boss but, was betrayed by his own men. At least I think that's how it went down. Well what matters right now is I think it's a better version and that's my opinion.
you and me both. when i played arkham asylum, killer croc scared the shit outta me, soon as he came outta the elevator in the beginning, all i said was "really, thats big....i gotta fight that later on?!" don't get me wrong, croc is a favorite of mine next to joker, but still, scared the hell outta me in the sewers. then i played arkham city and was like "grunde?!! killer croc was big and scary enough.now i gotta fight a zombie thats twice as big as croc and bane combined?!!" lol
A fight between the two would be titanic, and probably devastating to whatever city it took place in. Hulk couldn't hurt Grundy physically, as you can't harm that which does not feel. It would probably end with an agitated Hulk throwing his opponent across several States. Grundy would eventually land, rise, and shamble off in some random direction.
Grundy's such a badass, its also cool that Grundy is now the Avatar of The Grey in Earth 2, its kinda give him purpose rather than just "Swamp Zombie".
Batman appeared in 1939, a year before Alan Scott's appearance in 1940 Gotham City was first introduced in Batman #4 (winter 1940) Bill Finger is credited with naming Gotham City Bill Finger also co-created Green Lantern, who first appeared in All American Comics #16, which was published in July of 1940. Therefore it is highly likely that Green Lantern (Alan Scott) was Gotham's protector before Batman, simply because the city wasn't named in Batman comics until after Green Lantern appeared.
I think he would fit more as a John Constantine villain or as a complete Justice League Dark villain because most of all Batman should fight against Serial Killers and Psychotic villains leaving villains like zombies and demons to those who have powers to banish them like Zatanna,John Constantine,Doctor Fate,Deadman,and Etrigan The Demon.
"Solomon Smash!!!" "Hey! That's Hulk's line! Hulk have Copyright right here! You change that or Hulk sue the pants off you!" "Hmmm, Grundy needs his pants. Ok, ok…. Solomon Crush!" "That's better!"
Laughable ypu can see in this video grundy origin looks nothing like hulk, justice league grundy is a rip off of hulk, if you look up Wikipedia you will see where Stan Lee got the idea for hulk from, jekyll and Hyde and frankenstiens monster, still a rip off but not from dc. Frankenstien was a grey monster. Dc changed grundys appearance so it will be Frankenstien who will be taking them to court. Did you know superman wasn't the first man of steel.
Ya Kyle and Hal, but his problems with relations and the tragedy kinda gets in the way, but lantern wise is pretty cool and awesome leader and lantern all around and very significant in the corps
SPOILER!!!! Can anyone tell me if they are caught up with the tv show called " Arrow" was the massive bald villian that was injected by brother blood that almost killed green arrow.. was that solomon grundy? because when they are investigating his house the poem is there and green arrow says hes heard that before...
Seeing Green He becomes solomon grundy? so will we see him again or is his character killed off... because if hes solomon hes surely got to still be alive as you cant kill him?
I don't know if he will be killed off since his power was derived for that serum which seems to kill people in the first place and then resurrect them.
yes that was solomon grundy, i really hope he'll return in the 2nd or third season. during the last fight where green arrow defeated him, the serum spilled on his face, giving him a more accurate look towards the comic books. So I hope thats a sign he's coming back
SRomero78 yeah i was thinking that but also i wonder where ollie has heard the poem before? maybe on the island so maybe hes already faced solomon and this is just another version?
Wait wood was the Green Lantern's weakness? That's hilarious. I thought Superman, had a hard time with kryptonite. I suppose Pinocchio, would be like the Green Lantern's ultimate nightmare than.
solomun grundy has been around for a long time, the justice league/batman animated series/superman animated series made him into a tragic character, which is why is alot more popular now and loved
I hate when fanboys says that the Hulk is a rip-off he is not because Solomon Grundy was just a regular zombie and they just made him a like the Hulk when the Hulk became popular.
2:59 I adore this logic. “Yeah he was thrown off the top of a building BUT… he doesn’t die… because instead of landing at terminal velocity on the concrete he will land at terminal velocity on top of a metal roofed car that is a maximum of 5 feet shorter than the distance to the concrete.”
I like the New 52 retelling of his encounter with Alan. Alan is now ironically the champion of The Green and therefore powered by plant life like Swap-Thing, and Grundy was the chosen champion of The Rot/Grey.
I like how comic companies "borrow" from or get "inspired" by each other's characters. LoL. Grundy should be more popular since he was made 1st & zombies are hot right now. But Hulk has more personality. Hopefully Grundy will be in the JL movie....being a Hulk-like villain powerhouse that requires the team to combine forces & use tactics to defeat him. I like the idea of Grundy being stronger than Superman (like he was in the JL episode "Wake the Dead") but Supes having other abilities (like flight, super speed, heat-vision & ice breath) to help him out.
I agree, grundy's an interresting character, but ur right, hulk has banner so has more personality, perhaps lex would find grundy and get him on his side in the JL movie
Nhat Lam NGUYEN I was actually excluding Banner, but you are right that gives him even more personality now that I come to think of it. Well, Marvel/Disney has more recently given Hulk more of a personality actually. I think this happened most recently after the PLANET/WORLD WAR HULK stories. And the Avengers movies has helped flesh out his character more & made him more popular. He has better catch phases like: "Hulk Smash", "the madder Hulk gets the stronger Hulk ges", "puny (insert name or species", as well as "hulk is strongest there is". Yes, good idea, but I was thinking Grundy should rampage & be stopped by the JL efforts. At the end of the 1st movie, there should be an end scene where Lex is shown waiting at the edge of the swamp as Grundy revives & then Lex should offer him a spot on the LEGION OF DOOM (the team for the next movie).
Nhat Lam NGUYEN IKR. I loved that JL ep entitled "Wake the Dead" where Grundy was supercharged with chaos magic. That's what I want to see happen. Then @ the end he's revived with his normal power levels (hopefully as strong, if not stronger than Supes). Lex should be like Marvel's Nick Fury @ the ends of DC's movies & recruits villains for his Legion of Doom.
I managed to make a 100% combo with SG in Injustice, also stop accusing Hulk a rip off of Grundy, he's a zombie, that doesn't have to get angry and he's always in his true form, while Hulk is still in Banner form and Hulk form. DC has so many gigantic brutes, like Doomsday, Bane, Metallo, Darkseid. There just gigantic dudes, with no similarity, except being big guys and Dc has so many huge dudes, like Grundy.
In the Justice League series, he wasn't shown as a zombie. I just thought he had white skin and was a little slow. Remember, I was a kid. I didn't know his origins then.
"Solomon Grundy Born On A Monday, Christened On A Tuesday, Married On A Wednesday, Ill On Thursday, Worse On Friday, Died On Saturday, Barried On Sunday... That was the end - Two Face (The Movie: Long Halloween)". I'd hate to piss him off because if I did let's just say I won't live to tell the tale of Solomon Grundy
I really don't get his origin? Murder is common in the Batman universe. But somehow by being murdered this one guy randomly turns into one of the strongest villains in the DC universe who doesn't even seem inconvenienced by his murder. Some times he seems like he is just trying to make a living. A lot of his crimes do involve the acquisition of money after all. I feel like I'm missing something.
I think it would be awesome if it turned out that Solomon Grundy was actually one of the powerhouse villains in "Batman V Superman: Dawn of Justice." He probably won't be, but it'd awesome if he was.
Dont expect much from this movie, they adopted the worst comic line (frank miller). Dc are killing themselves with their upcoming movies. Im a hardcore dc fan but their movies sucked since batman begins
q8indy Seems like Doomsday will be appearing with Lex so it won't be a complete copy paste of the horrible Dark Knight Returns by Shitty Miller. If we go by the supposedly leaked script/synopsis.
Cyrus Gold was a villain on Arrow. He was injected with a Super Soldier formula called Miracle and became super strong. He "died" in yesterday's episode but I'm sure he'll be back as Solomon Grundy.
Thug Life Super Gamer Agree. I believe Grundy got bulky after Hulk's appearance, where as he was tall with a human build before. Grundy was also capable of intelligent conversation back in the 40's.
Now see that would be a great fight. Solomon Grundy versus the Hulk. Some people need to grasp league as one person wanted a fight between Hulk and Doomsday which is obviously nonsensical.
there was a green lantern in ancient china abusing his power and the guardians made his ring vulnerable to wood and when he was fatally wounded he didn't use his ring to heal himself to spite them.
x2RAW Evicted You're too biased in your statement. Just because you like the hulk better, doesn't mean he could take on Grundy, The hulk can be killed. So can Grundy. But Grundy reanimates. The Hulk doesn't
if you think of it like this..... in batman and Robin (with poison ivy and bane) wouldn't poison ivy and Solomon Grundy pair well since he's basically made of wood and she's all plant obsessed?
Being born on a Monday is enough of a Supervillain origin
ikr

I was born on a Monday

Solomon Grundy. Born on a Monday, christened on Tuesday, married on Wednesday, took ill on Thursday, grew worse on Friday, died on Saturday, buried on a Sunday. And that was the end of Solomon Grundy.
Had to throw in the story to go with the superpowered zombie.

Cyrus Gold in the streets
Solomon Grundy in the sheets
haha
Lmao
Ben Finny not really decaying as he is a failed avatar of green so he would technically regrow his dick
Don't forget that ( in some incarnations) Grundy grows bigger with ever regeneration. Use that knowledge wisely.
I always assumed this villain was silly and dumb but this video has completely changed my perception. this villain is savage.
You will be surprised that Solomon Grundy has been defeated so many times that for every time he is defeated be becomes more intelligent.
And yet...Rather tragic at the same time
Joker still best
Punk-Kaiser
Yeah, assumptions are never wise. Facts are much more prevalent.
A corpse of a vengeful guy that was revived by the lazarus pit while becoming one with the swamp, that after being defeated always comes back to life wiser and stronger despite being a zombie with early life amnesia, that can fight toe to toe with supes and batz, that have the potential to become as strong as god hulk and live as long as supes?
You sure took your time to find out he is the real deal, mate
If the old green lanterns weakness is wood and the new one is the colour yellow does that mean I can kill them both with a school pencil
0/10 for originality
Dat cold
Well not everyone will get your reference but I do.
Why u no nice to me
Glen Haig cause you ripped off a scene in the big bang theory. but yeah green lantern is gay
Guys stop saying Solomon is a ripoff of the Hulk try to read dates he came from the 1940s and hulk came in the 1960s
The Hulk is another obvious ripoff, so-much-so that the Hulk was originally-- you guessed it, "GRAY" colored and sporting Grundy's "torn clothing and unintelligible dialect." No way to dispute this, you can't change history or Marvel's extensive pattern of underhanded stealing.
Jámie Gilbert Yea i know its gray and the suit is simillar (sorry for the late reply i got the debut of hulk months ago)
Actually if anything, The hulk is a ripoff Grundy. Grundy came before the hulk. Most DC characters came before Marvel characters. All of them did I think
Michael DeMaio no Lizard came before Killer Croc Spider-Man before Black Spider
I never said anything about those guys. Besides I barely know Marvel. I'm a more DC kind of guy. They have original characters
I keep kicking this guy's ass in injustice, so I figured I'd look into who the hell he is.

When Solomon Grundy died in Justice League i cried so much, it was very sad
it was the only time you feel sad when a zombie dies.
It was so moving and so deep
Rick Paul Come over here bro (hug)

what? he is immortal
I always liked Solomon Grundy in the Justice League animated series. Hawkgirl always trying to find the humanity in him was one of the reasons I kept watching the series.
solomon grundy wants pants too!
...you bastid lol
lol I had the same idea but I was 3 months too late
This is classic
Every time Grundy is "killed" his body is regenerated at the swamp. Every time he regenerates, his power and his personality are different from before. Sometimes he's weaker, sometimes he's stronger. Sometimes he's dumb as a rock, other times he's quite intelligent. Also, every time he comes back, he has no memory of his previous life, so he doesn't know who anybody is.
Grundy is probably one of my favorite DC villains, and he's by far my favorite character to play as in Injustice.
Solomon Grundy is like the Hulk in some ways, one of them being he's a misunderstood person with incredible strength and a big heart, at least to his friends. I once heard that a version of Solomon Grundy actually HELPED the Justice League.
That's because Marvel made the Hulk from DC's Solomon Grundy. Even the original Hulk was grey and not green.
Samuel Ketner But when Grundy first appeared he was just a zombie in later additions he began looking and acting like the Hulk so at a certain point Grundy took elements from the Hulk.
Hulk was grey because of a printing error thats why it was the first issue, it was later added into his story but he wasn't grey because of grundy.
@@SunWukong4 watch 90's incredible Hulk tv show where he's exactly like a green skinny zombie lmao so don't be stupid hulk is an obvious rip off
@@kiteman3951 Hulk was created in the 60s
They heavily implied later, with the third GL that his weakness of wood was because he was attacked by a wood plank and thought the power did not affect wood and by that thinking, the ring made exist.
Originally he couldn't affect wood but they changed it because they wanted GL to not have the yellow handicap anymore.
He probably thought having wood wasn't good for the ring's powers and told everyone it was actual wood 😂
why were comics so good in the 50's?
ikr i want some they sound better than the new
dude everything was invented back then... the stories those gus came up with... too good!
better paid writers, and more inventive. also time to develop the caracters. after all is their work.
yeah, but there were plenty of ridiculous ones

Let's hope Grundy appears in the upcoming Swamp Thing series. That would be so cool!
the original green lantern had a weakness against wood.......LAAAME!!!
Lord DarkFox i see what you did there..
Lord DarkFox so if i wake up with wood am i temporarily stronger than a green lantern?
Sounds like some Anti-Gay thing haha, Green Lantenrs have always been weak when Analy Raped, I mean who wouldn't?

One of the most underrated villains ever. GRUNDY CRUUUSH!
grundy scares the shit out of me in arkham city
your not the only one
Haha Croc in Arkham Asylum was the worst.
you and me both. when i played arkham asylum, killer croc scared the shit outta me, soon as he came outta the elevator in the beginning, all i said was "really, thats big....i gotta fight that later on?!" don't get me wrong, croc is a favorite of mine next to joker, but still, scared the hell outta me in the sewers. then i played arkham city and was like "grunde?!! killer croc was big and scary enough.now i gotta fight a zombie thats twice as big as croc and bane combined?!!" lol

he also appeared as a member of the Legion of Doom in Challenge of the Superfriends.
the green lanterns had some really dumb weaknesses back then.
Grundy's such a badass, its also cool that Grundy is now the Avatar of The Grey in Earth 2, its kinda give him purpose rather than just "Swamp Zombie".
Batman appeared in 1939, a year before Alan Scott's appearance in 1940
Gotham City was first introduced in Batman #4 (winter 1940)

Bill Finger also co-created Green Lantern, who first appeared in All American Comics #16, which was published in July of 1940.
Therefore it is highly likely that Green Lantern (Alan Scott) was Gotham's protector before Batman, simply because the city wasn't named in Batman comics until after Green Lantern appeared.
Best use of Grundy in in the JL/JLU animated series. Not to give anything away, but I still get teary eyed when I watch it.
Ah, Adam West. Will your Batman ever cease to entertain us? :D
I think he would fit more as a John Constantine villain or as a complete Justice League Dark villain because most of all Batman should fight against Serial Killers and Psychotic villains leaving villains like zombies and demons to those who have powers to banish them like Zatanna,John Constantine,Doctor Fate,Deadman,and Etrigan The Demon.

you must do your research, Grundy's first appearance was on 1944, Hulk's is 1962.

Only the revamped grundy resembles the hulk, the original was nothing like him. They changed him to suit the hulks growing popularity.
Also thanks for doing Grundy! Loved the old Lantern art! :D
Solomon Grundy Want pants TOO!
***** lol old Cartoon Network
An excellent comment!
very professional and high quality audio, congratulations
I never knew Green Lanterns' weaknesses were wood. And I thought Superman could be a wimp sometimes
That particular "green lantern"
***** Why the quotes around Green Lantern?
Cause its a different type of green lantern unique in the universe and isnt a part of the other lanterns
***** True true. In my opinion the best one is Kyle Rayner
Ya Kyle and Hal, but his problems with relations and the tragedy kinda gets in the way, but lantern wise is pretty cool and awesome leader and lantern all around and very significant in the corps
I liked the JLA origin story, I always laughed at wood being a weakness to Green Lantern
Shout out to Gothom for sticking close to the origin.
Awesome. Thanks!

you forgot one thing: whenever he dies, he reanimates with new powers replacing his old ones.
sounds like a DC version of The Hulk, I don´t mean the the origin story, but the looks, behaviour, intelligence, the way he talks...
Yeah each of the companies ripped off each other all the damn time lol. Gotta love it :D
The Hulk is marvel's version on Solomon Grundy because Grundy came first.
Matthew Davidson It's not even a secret Deadpool was made as a mockery of Deathstroke. He literally IS a joke.
Matthew Davidson Totally agree Wade is far more entertaining.
it will be a night fight between solomon vs hulk
but i like solomon more,most of the zombies are weak but this one is massive

Yes, good idea, but I was thinking Grundy should rampage & be stopped by the JL efforts. At the end of the 1st movie, there should be an end scene where Lex is shown waiting at the edge of the swamp as Grundy revives & then Lex should offer him a spot on
the LEGION OF DOOM (the team for the next movie).
Blackton Obvious! awesome, that's a good entrance for the guy
Nhat Lam NGUYEN IKR.
I loved that JL ep entitled "Wake the Dead" where Grundy was supercharged with chaos magic. That's what I want to see happen. Then @ the end he's revived with his normal power levels (hopefully as strong, if not stronger than Supes). Lex should be like Marvel's Nick Fury @ the ends of DC's movies & recruits villains for his Legion of Doom.
Blackton Obvious! wow, there, that would be too over powered for supes since magic is his weakness but would be badass tho
I managed to make a 100% combo with SG in Injustice, also stop accusing Hulk a rip off of Grundy, he's a zombie, that doesn't have to get angry and he's always in his true form, while Hulk is still in Banner form and Hulk form. DC has so many gigantic brutes, like Doomsday, Bane, Metallo, Darkseid. There just gigantic dudes, with no similarity, except being big guys and Dc has so many huge dudes, like Grundy.
The power ring is just like sonic screwdriver. Wood causes problems for both.
u guys should do John Constantine, oh wait let me log on and submit a request lol love u guys, u keep me company at work
Never saw that episode were Adam West/Batman confronted the dead man. Nice. I've been waiting a long time for this Grundy.....................Epic.
It wasn't actually from the 60's Batman TV series. It was from the Legion of Superheros special that aired in '79.
Nothing like that old school watch mojo
I was introduced to Grundy via the Justice League series. Honestly, as a kid, I thought he was cute. XD
hes not cute he's a zombie that kills things or tries to atleast
In the Justice League series, he wasn't shown as a zombie. I just thought he had white skin and was a little slow. Remember, I was a kid. I didn't know his origins then.

true true
Love this could you possibly do Blade or Death strokes origins next please.
I like his character better than the Hulk. Strong enough to at least take on Superman.
The hulk as of now would murder supes lmao
@@nishanth6403 Nah
@@nishanth6403 no
Thanks. Couldn't find that anywhere.
i like him on the injustice gods among us video game!
"Solomon Grundy Born On A Monday,
Christened On A Tuesday,
Married On A Wednesday,
Ill On Thursday,
Worse On Friday,
Died On Saturday,
Barried On Sunday...
That was the end -
Two Face (The Movie: Long Halloween)". I'd hate to piss him off because if I did let's just say I won't live to tell the tale of Solomon Grundy
Got Laid Wednesday Night. That was his best day.
How about professor pyg as a supervillain
He started throwing his henchmen off the roof. haha.
Hope to see Grundy in upcoming DCEU movies.
He would be the dceu version of the hulk
coming soon!
Wait.. grundy was in the the 1960's batman tv series??
Superfriends special legend of superheroes adam west reprised his role..
I really don't get his origin? Murder is common in the Batman universe. But somehow by being murdered this one guy randomly turns into one of the strongest villains in the DC universe who doesn't even seem inconvenienced by his murder. Some times he seems like he is just trying to make a living. A lot of his crimes do involve the acquisition of money after all. I feel like I'm missing something.
I think it would be awesome if it turned out that Solomon Grundy was actually one of the powerhouse villains in "Batman V Superman: Dawn of Justice." He probably won't be, but it'd awesome if he was.
Dont expect much from this movie, they adopted the worst comic line (frank miller). Dc are killing themselves with their upcoming movies. Im a hardcore dc fan but their movies sucked since batman begins
Drydon nolan trilogy was silly like hell
q8indy Seems like Doomsday will be appearing with Lex so it won't be a complete copy paste of the horrible Dark Knight Returns by Shitty Miller. If we go by the supposedly leaked script/synopsis.
I certainly enjoyed the film.
finally you guys made a video about him
Solomon Grundy is going to be in season 3 of Gotham
Branden Rangel I'm looking forward to seeing him.
Cool episode
hell of a scare to fight him in Arkham City
that's were they say the rhyme
yep it was a scare
Cyrus Gold was a villain on Arrow. He was injected with a Super Soldier formula called Miracle and became super strong. He "died" in yesterday's episode but I'm sure he'll be back as Solomon Grundy.
Grundy is an pretty awesome villain but I don't think he's a ripoff version of Hulk.
Thug Life Super Gamer Yes, even though he was created first, that makes sense.
A Guy Named Slimpback True.
Thug Life Super Gamer
Agree. I believe Grundy got bulky after Hulk's appearance, where as he was tall with a human build before. Grundy was also capable of intelligent conversation back in the 40's.
TN BN True.
Hulk is a ripoff
one of the my favorite characters.and one of my favorites in Injustice.
Now see that would be a great fight. Solomon Grundy versus the Hulk. Some people need to grasp league as one person wanted a fight between Hulk and Doomsday which is obviously nonsensical.
I doubt that. Stan Lee has stated that he took inspiration from Dr. Jerkyll and Mr. Hyde and Frankenstein while creating the Hulk.
Solomon Grundy vs Undertaker stairway to hell match at wrestlemania 31 lol
First blood casket match followed by a buried alive match
Youngwolf
One of my top 10 favorite villains in the DC Universe.
WAIT!! The Green Lantern`s weakness was wood?...WTF?!
there was a green lantern in ancient china abusing his power and the guardians made his ring vulnerable to wood and when he was fatally wounded he didn't use his ring to heal himself to spite them.
jrwith ok,thank you for telling me.I had no idea.
do a origins on scorpiob
Who's here because if tonight's Gotham episode!?
Do some of theFlash Rogues! Mirror Master, Weather Wizard, Professor Zoom etc...
Solomon grundy vs the thing! make it happen deathbattle!
Didn't the original Green Lantern's sidekick have a name?
hulk vs solomon grumdy winner solomon grumdy
Kidding me? Hulk wins easily
x2RAW Evicted You're too biased in your statement. Just because you like the hulk better, doesn't mean he could take on Grundy, The hulk can be killed. So can Grundy. But Grundy reanimates. The Hulk doesn't
trust me, im a hardcore dc fan, but hulk can beat him, and grundy is a ripoff hulk
x2RAW Evicted you can't really beat something that keeps reanimating.
x2RAW Evicted although yes,the hulk is way stronger
Thanks so much i couldn't remember it so i tried to remember it but still thanks man
He's technically a "mini version" of the Hulk
Solomon Grundy > hulk
He once caught Supermans fist with no effort
No he's the original and under rated hulk
if you think of it like this..... in batman and Robin (with poison ivy and bane) wouldn't poison ivy and Solomon Grundy pair well since he's basically made of wood and she's all plant obsessed?
The Original Grundy started off as a Lerch type from the Adams Family and ends up being a poor man's DC version of The Hulk.
+Sykopath BnG he appeared before hulk so shut the fuck up.
MrDeathmaster131 nahhhhhhhhh....really?
i never would've known that watching this video dc fanboy.....smh
i never said otherwise you dumb fuck
Do your research marvel fanboy, Solomon Grundy came out first before hulk. So hulk is a copy paste of Solomon Grundy.

I like the New 52 grundy Origins story, that's a good one.
