Major Talbot never noticed that Bruce Banner wore the same torn purple pants as The Hulk. So much for military intelligence. :)
The Leader's accident happened in Boise, Idaho.
He decided on the name, "The Leader", which was better than his other option, "Potato-Head".
I think the earliest version of Superman didn't have flight as a power, but did have leaping / jumping. It's where the "able to leap tall buildings in a single bound" phrase come from.
I thought the Chameleon was a well known Marvel villain. I remember him from a few Spider-Man adventures. One was a Marvel Team-Up Featuring Spider-Man, where he was teamed with... The Hulk. He started off by impersonating Spider-Man, and switched to impersonating Rick Jones in a successful attempt to stop the Hulk from attacking him. Later there was a book trilogy where he was part of the Sinister Six.
The Leader and the Hulk both had their abilities thrust on them, and both seem to have this overwhelming need to prove to everybody what they can do. The Leader has to show off that he's the smartest man in the room, while the Hulk keeps proving he's the strongest man in the room. It's like how some people with new money feel the need to show off how rich they are while old money is far more sedate.
The plot really feels like more of back-to-back-to-back situations, moving Banner and the Hulk from one thing to another. I can't figure out why Banner would be on the military train. Nor can I figure out why a guy under arrest for treason would be sent off to a weapon test. I almost want the trial, just so Banner's lawyer could make monkeys out of Ross and Talbot when they try to make their case on no evidence.
I was going to make that point about Superman as well. There was a minor Marvel character, in the Captain America cartoon series I think, called "The Leaper", but he was a one-off bad guy.
The narration really helps explain what's going on due to the limited animation, I saw these cartoons in the late 80's and thought they were ridiculous but it made me discover the works of Jack Kirby and Steve Ditko.

6:05 "Hulk stick landing and get perfect 10, except from East German judge! Hulk smash East German judge!"
The Leader was the East German judge.
Well your half right. Talbot was a foil for Bruce and mainly existed to get the wrong end of the stick. But his love for Betty was true from when I started reading. Talbot "died" after Betty divorced him and he attacked the Hulk with the army's latest weapon at a volcano. He was briefly replaced by his look and act alike brother. I don't know his current state. Yes he "died" but this is comics.
Chamelon is a long time Spidey foe first appearing in I think Amazing #1. Yes he is a spy and master of disguse but as he's Russian I doubt he's related to a N azi version.
I started reading comics in the summer of '65. Though I knew the characters, these cartoons were my first exposure to the early Marvel stories. (I've always been more of a DC guy, though.)
BTW, the Chameleon was an early Spider-Man villain. Why he made a cameo here, I don't know. Continuity, I guess.
4:37 I think he was just readying his excuses for his superior officers when they ask why he didn't stop the attack. "Uh, I shot direclty at him with my great marksmanship, of course! But, uh, the bullets went THROUGH him. Yeah, that's it."
13:45 "Yes, our weapons had no effect, so let's get closer to it and try hand-to-hand combat!" They must be the result of reduced entrance standards for the military.
In 1971 they were careless enough to take me, so probably.
15:45 So, apparently, there is America, and then there are enemies, and all the enemies work together. Sounds like a modern worldview.
12:10 That "stop or I'll shoot" when he was already gone up the stairs genuinely made me laugh.
Chameleon was in an earlier issue of Tales to Astonish who took on the Hulk to steal a Gamma grenade. He'll have this story in a later cartoon, but the broadcast schedule has already veered wildly from the publishing schedule.
11:37 "Please, stop you important test right in the middle to explain its principles to me, a layman."
Talbot reminds me of Gir from Invader Zim: "what dad do? What dat do? What dat oo?" I probably should have used that clip.
13:40 [Talbott] "Now that I'm safe in my super-bunker, go get him, troops!"
2:10 "And my cigar is not to move in my mouth, until we get some better animation!"
18:35 "I don't know if Major Talbot is still around today and, to be honest, I don't care."
He's still around. He showed up in "Agents of S.H.I.E.L.D." ......At least until he became the villain in later seasons. You'll have to watch the show to see how that happened.
4:44 They did make Banner extra dweeby here. He's a couple steps removed from Droopy Dog.
1:35 "They are utterly indestructible and obey me implicitly. Why did I make them look like a mushroom crossed with Swiss cheese? Only your puny human brain would ask!"
8:21 "Banner! I might have known... that you would somehow leave a moving train, take off most of your clothes, and go sit next this thing in the desert."
That's Talbot, all right.
0:17 It's nice that he named himself so everyone will immediately know what his position is.
Never heard of The Hulk? " Don't follow the news?" 😅😅😅😅
6:52 Ah, the well-known "Bass Drum Rocks"
The third episode is way down the publication time-line from the first two. And the Leader's Humanoid IS a marshmallow.
I also noticed-smart Banner becomes incredibly strong, and muscular laborer becomes a brainiac. I thought that gamma rays inverted people's nature before the whole psychology of the Hulk was revealed.
Of course he had an accident. Hopping up and down, while carrying dangerous materials, is a recipe for disaster.
While I was primarily a DC kid, I dabbled in Marvel, but Hulk and his enemies (minus the military) were always a bit off, to me. Thanks to the movies, more people have seen the Absorbing Man and Abomination, and they hinted at the Leader, but nothing came of it, sadly. Some of the writers, from that area admitted that they used gamma radiation, and radiation, in general as a sort of super power lottery. And how does one measure the "greatest brain" in the world? There are several characters, with ridiculously high IQs, some with psychic abilities, like Professor Xavier. Just a personal nitpick, though it would get tons worse later: When pros or fans say "This character is the --------est", it just opens comparisons.
Oh, and I love the thunderous clap maneuver. Superman is also a known practitioner.
0:24 Caused by his own carelessness, eh? Sounds like a company is trying to head off some lawsuits and OSHA investigations.
The Chameleon appeared in the Spider-Man cartoons in the late 80s/early 90s. Not sure if he was ever a Spidey villain in the comics, but he was in the show.
He was a comic villain. I remember him in a Spider-Man / Hulk team-up, he was part of the Sinister Six in a book trilogy, and was behind the re-emergence of Peter's parents (fakes).
He was literally Spider-Mans first villian...
16:52 "Hulk make amusement park ride! "
The older version of power girl could not fly she jumped from place to place.
Like her cousin, the golden age Superman, who in his first few years could only "leap an eighth of a mile."
Great video
7:25 Well, that is technically what Superman does. His flying is basically controlled, long-distance jumping.
He started out that way, but by the 60's his flying ability was separate from everything else. Smallville showed how he discovered it and learned to control it.
Right. When he began in 1938, he could only "leap an eighth of a mile." But when the Superman cartoons were released in 1941-42, the animators found it easier to depict him as flying, not jumping. That soon carried into the comics.
He performed some pretty elaborate flying maneuvers in the '40s and '50s, but as far as I've been able to find, it wasn't until the mid to late '60s that he learned he could hover.
10:15 Yes, the U.S. frequently lets out prisoners it has on suspicion of treason to go supervise important national security tests. Happens all the time.
Is anyone else getting *REAL* sick of the fact that these cartoons feel the need to explain what's going on to the audience every time something happens? If I were watching these I'd feel annoyed and insulted that the creators feel I can't figure out what's happening just by watching.
What's the saying? "Show. Don't tell."
10:40 The Chameleon? Who is ThAT guys? How does he know the Leader? Where does he come from and where does he go?
Right now he looks like cotton-eyed Joe.
Thunderbolt Ross's voice sounds like the same voice as J. Jonah Jameson from the 1960s Spider-Man series.
Wow. I always hear Matt Frewer (Max Headroom) as the Leader, but I see recently he has been played by Jeffrey Coombs (the perfect choice) and these days by Bill Hader (meh).
4:22 Or, apparently, he will still shoot even if it does clearly stop.
This is hilarious!😊
8:46 "I must learn more about the green monster. To Fenway Park!"
7:27 The first character that comes to my mind is Kazuho Haneyama aka Pop☆Step from the My Hero Academia manga spinoff, Vigilantes.
SR-1 in Arco,ID.
4:40 This guy apparently only has one volume setting.
They hired him when he broke their decibel meter.
