Trivia

With the booming success of Spider-Man: The Animated Series (1994) and X-Men (1992) on FOX, UPN wanted a piece of Marvel Studios's animation success, and so a new series was commissioned. Given the popularity of the character, and most of Marvel's heavy hitters were either already on FOX, or had been done before, at this point in time, it simply had to be The Incredible Hulk. Marvel entrusted The Incredible Hulk to Supervising Producer Tom Tataranowicz after he helped overhaul the syndicated Fantastic Four: The Animated Series (1994) and Iron Man (1994) to more critical approval in their second seasons, and gave the Hulk a backdoor pilot attempt in both shows.

The animation for this show was done by Sae-Rom, an animation house in South Korea that has done Batman: The Animated Series (1992) and Gargoyles (1994) episodes.

Story Editor Greg Johnson was especially excited about bringing in a relatively obscure group of characters from the comics. The Outcasts were there during the original gamma explosion, the animals and bugs that were also affected and have grown into their unique mutant forms. They have some element of intelligence, but they don't talk.

Lou Ferrigno provided the Hulk's voice in this series. Ferrigno is well known for his portrayal of the Hulk in The Incredible Hulk (1977).

Character designs were done in-house at Marvel Studios. The Hulk, Betty Ross, Major Glenn Talbot, and Doc Samson were modeling after their 70's comic designs, The Leader and Grey Hulk (original design) were modeling after their 80's designs, and the Abomination was modeling after his 90's design.
