The instantly iconic Hulk is sure to raise some eyebrows. Ryan Ottley is the artist behind the latest relaunch of the Jade Giant's epic story, and the Hulk's recent reality-hopping adventures make this battle seem frighteningly possible.
My Neighbor Totoro debuted in 1988 as the third feature film from Studio Ghibli and very quickly became a massive fan favorite, eventually gaining a massive cult following, with the forest spirit Totoro becoming the logo and mascot for the popular studio. The animated film - hugely inspired by Shinto folklore and philosophy - focused on the two young daughters of a professor, Satsuki and Mei, as they move to a post-war rural community in Japan and befriend a series of wood spirits, namely Totoro. Totoro acts as a protector of sorts for the girls, along with the infamous "Catbus," and helps them as they process their mother's sickness and their acclimation to rural life.
On the surface, there is not much similarity between Totoro and the Hulk, but underneath the top layer, it is clear that Ottley's art is gorgeous and evocative. In a tweet shared by Ottley's art representative, Felix Comic Art, Felix shared the amazing drawing of Totoro fighting Hulk with the caption, "A crazy idea Ryan dreamt up that he had to put paper... and we're all glad he did!"
The drawing depicts a truly deranged-looking Totoro traveling through alternate dimensions, leaving a trail of blood and destruction in his wake.
In some alternate dimension is there a downright brutal Totoro waiting to take on the Hulk in a fight to the death? Fans can only hope. Regardless of if this fight is "possible," it is certainly a treat to see see what multiversal battles the Hulk does get himself into in the coming months.
