Patrick Moran, the title’s lead game designer at developer Wideload Games, says Avengers Initiative takes place in the same universe as Avengers Alliance, a Facebook game released earlier this year. Tomorrow the company is revealing universe-building aspirations in mobile and social gaming, with the launch of Avengers Initiative, which it’s describing as its biggest mobile release yet. Seven issues apart, in Incredible Hulk #120 and #127, editor Roy Thomas got real with fans about why the Hulk wears purple pants, which is that they wanted the Hulk to have a consistent look and since purple was what was determined early on, purple was what he got stuck with, and it was essentially his costume, just the same as any other superhero who is consistently drawn in the same costume.Starting with Iron Man, Disney-owned Marvel famously built a connected cinematic universe for its superhero movies, and the strategy paid off spectacularly this year with the release of The Avengers. THE "REAL" REASON WHY THE HULK WEARS PURPLE PANTS Just like how in the 1990s when Rogue was in the Savage Land with Magneto and her clothes were torn to shreds.just with enough fabric to cover the parts of her body that you can't show in a Code-approved comic book. And as Spitznagel noted, it really was the Comics Code that explained why the pants stayed on. Honestly, Stan's explanation is as good as any, really. There’s an explanation for everything, but you may not be technically advanced enough to follow me on all of this. Stan Lee: I just figured that Bruce Banner had probably been a friend of Reed Richards, and Reed had given him some elastic trousers. Vanity Fair: Did you ever try to make sense of the Hulk’s magical purple pants? Why did they always conveniently remain intact while the rest of his clothes were ripped to shreds? So occasionally the Code did some good things.
Stan Lee: I guess it probably would have. Vanity Fair: If it weren’t for the Comics Code, would the Hulk’s pants have ripped off like his shirt? One of the last times (well, in print, at least), was in 2011 when Eric Spitznagel of Vanity Fair asked Lee a few questions about one of the pressing issues of the era, what was up with Hulk's pants? Naturally, Stan Lee was asked about this question a few times over the years. Funny stuff (thanks to reader Ken for suggesting the David one).
