The official poster for The Incredible Hulk was released just yesterday, however some people, like those over at io9, were having deja vu, flashbacks and geek spasms.

The poster is - presumably intentionally - a recreation of one of the most famous Marvel covers ever: Amazing Spider-Man #50 (If it looks familiar to those of you who’ve never seen the cover before, it was also recreated in the movie Spider-Man 2). Why try and recreate a Spider-Man cover for a Hulk movie poster? Who knows - Maybe Ed Norton wanted the world to know that he really is a geek, after all…

Although they are rather similar, if not identical, I would like to point out that Spiderman is red, whereas The Hulk is in fact green.

(Ah, who am I kidding…it’s a total rip-off!)
