      Her whole conversation with Marlow is just her insisting that whatever happened to Kurtz and however painful his death was in his last moments God must've been there, God must've comforted him, he must have left the world bathed in the warm light of his faith

      And Marlow just silently agrees, even though he and we know that what Kurtz really saw on his deathbed could only be described as "The horror... the horror"

      I've always loved the Hulk precisely because what he's about is this very classic very highfalutin very literary theme about the duality and depravity of man But he's also the most cartoony wacky dumb superhero The power of comics to make metaphor literal

      But yeah this is going from the pulpy idea of Jekyll and Hyde duality to the more literary Heart of Darkness duality If Kurtz as he is in Europe and Kurtz as he is in Africa are so different then that means Kurtz, as an identifiable meaningful singular identity, doesn't exist

      That's the horror, the "heart of darkness" That there's nothing really there - in Kurtz, whom everyone thought was the smartest most humane philosopher they knew There's nothing really there in anyone Which means there's nothing up there either

      Man and the point of the One Below All is that when the Hulk finally and fully takes over it IS the One Below All All the various Hulk personae - Savage Hulk, Joe Fixit, Professor Hulk, Bruce Banner himself - just cease to exist He was always only a conduit, he didn't matter

      The Hulk isn't his "alter ego" and it isn't a sign he himself is special The Hulk is just a truth about the way things are, that Bruce learned long ago at his father's knee and was suddenly reminded in a flash of agonizing heat and light And he's fated to teach it to the world

      Virtues of the story aside, though, you can certainly see how this is *WEIRD* against the backdrop of everything else?

      Yeah it's an intentional deconstruction of the cosmic setting, such as it is

      Continuity is the problem here, like if this were an explicitly non-canon fanfic about the Marvel universe no one would care

          It's like how they wanted a cool cosmic origin story for the Marvel universe but it was TOO cool so they turned it into a non-canon story (the Earth-X setting)
