Incredible Pants

I grew up drawing super heroes all the time but never questioned the physical plausibility of the characters (or their wardrobe). Admittedly there was always something very curious about Dr. Banner’s incredible pants. They would have to be incredible, wouldn’t they? Sorry, Mr. Lee. I’ll stand behind the transformative powers of gamma radiation and their ability to morph an ordinary man into a nine foot monster, but if you expect me to believe those ugly purple pants of his would only come unbuttoned at the waist and split up to the knees… Really?! Have you seen the Hulk’s thighs?! They’re each, like, thirty inches! Heck, most guys can’t put on more than a couple pounds without feeling like a stuffed sausage in their Dockers, but the Hulk can pack on a half ton and still comfortably throw cars. Even if Hulk’s pants were a bit roomier in the seat and thigh, would they really fit Bruce’s original human frame after he calmed down? Incredible? More like, incredibly unbelievable!

What say you?
