Editing Hulk (section)

===Hulk: Chapter One===
In the ''Hulk 1999 Annual'', writer [[John Byrne (comics)|John Byrne]] revised the Hulk's origin, much like his ''[[Spider-Man: Chapter One]]''. In the revised origin, the Gamma Bomb that was being tested is now a gamma laser, and a [[Skrull]] was responsible for [[Rick Jones (character)|Rick Jones]]' presence on the base during the gamma test. The Skrull also disguised himself as Igor Rasminsky (Drenkov in the original stories), a fellow scientist working on the project. The contemporary setting removes the [[Cold War]] context of the original story, and serves as a tie-in to the ''[[Marvel: The Lost Generation]]'' maxi-series created by [[Roger Stern]] and Byrne, which also brought the origins of many Marvel characters out of the 1960s and into contemporary times.<ref>Hulk 1999 Annual.</ref><ref>Marvel: The Lost Generation, issues 12-1; 2000-2001.</ref> The storyline is currently designated as set on Earth-9992, and is not part of mainstream Marvel continuity ([[Earth-616]]).
