According to Deadline ABC is developing a live action Hulk television series.  This has to be good news, right?  And why didn’t this synergy happen sooner?  Disney bought Marvel quite some time ago, and since Disney is the parent company of ABC, the network should be teaming with Marvel projects. There’s no one really attached to the Hulk project – no writer, no director, no producer – nothing.  So now is as good as time as any to get your wild speculation engine up to full speed and let your imaginations go wild.  What do you want to see in…
