Marvel Super Hero Island

[MKCustodial]

I had a couple of comments/questions about various things on the best IOA island, so I thought I'd make a whole thread out of it.

1) Does the Hulk Coaster has a storyline? I remember there were monitors with a cartoon, like in Doom and Spidey, but there was no line so I couldn't really pay attention. And I bought that MSHI comic that "supposedly" helps you understand the storilines, but the Hulk one really doesn't help all that much...

2) When I dreamt about going to MSHI, I thought I'd find a store especialized in REAL Marvel merchandise, like a Gambit raincoat or a Scarlet-Spider sweatshirt, and I was really disappointed when I got there and all they had were those bright (too) colorful shirts with Wolverine or the Thing or Rogue on the front... Anybody else feels/felt like that?

Sorta like the Star Wars Store in MGM. Yeah they should have an Ultimate Marvelverse Store with items unique to Universal and all the characers in Marvel... well a lot more of them than they currently do anyway.

You really like the Scarlet Spider? (I have some Avatars I've yet to use with him)

I always liked the idea of Peter having someone that he could share his Spidey life with. Mary Jane wouldn't fit in here because she'd get too upset, and I'm yet to see the implications of Aunt May having discovered his secret. Daredevil is too serious, and that's why I love the buddy stories, Spidey and the Torch. I think he should let Johnny in on his secret (only Johnny, not the FF) but...
And Ben fit incredibly here. But Ben as Scarlet-Spider, as ANOTHER hero, not that real Peter crap they tried to pull on us. The few stories before the baby was born and Ben died were really touching, with the both of them acting as brothers. But Marvel felt they had to kill Ben in order to make peace with the fans...

well bruce banner is trying to rid himself of the hulk or something so he gets in his gamma ray thingy (i think?) which is the roller coaster and thats why he says "i think...i think this time its going to work.." ok so that doesnt really make sense....:brick:

From what I pick up from it, the guests are also contaminated with this Hulk personality and we've come to Banner's site to seek a cure... that cure being the gamma tube.

Hulk
Spider-Man
Doc Doom

Now...if the gamma ray is trying to cure us....then why do I get OFF of the ride feeling green? :hurl:

I've seen the whole video, and I think it was like 40 minutes long. Like Brooke said, he is trying to get rid of how he turns into the Hulk by going through a gamma radiation tube. I guess you are supposed to feel like the Hulk when you get on the ride.
