That monster is known in the comics as Abomination. He's one of the major Hulk enemies. But in the film he's just known as Blonsky (a former KGB agent turned monster) cuz Zak Penn thought the name Abomination was too silly.

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Abomination_%28comics%29

Emil Blonsky is a KGB agent and spy who becomes the Abomination after deliberately exposing himself to the same gamma radiation (but in a greater quantity) that transforms Bruce Banner into the Hulk. Blonsky survives the radiation as he (like Bruce Banner) belongs to a small minority born with a genetic factor that causes mutation instead of death.

WTF kind of explination is that?!

So Norton gets to sit in the editing room and this Penn fool has to have his character re-named. This movie's going to officially suck worse than the Ang Lee pile.

Norton is Hulk. Tim Roth plays Emil Blonsky/Abomination. They've completly re-tooled the character. In the comics he looks like a huge mutant Lizard/Skrull thing but they changed it so that he's now just some brown thing with no pointy ears. He looks more like a giant skeleton or something. IMO it's not the TRUE Abomination so they've basically pissed off lots of Hulk fans.

This is the action figure of the movie version:

It's still a big monster. I don't see what the big deal is, as long as they don't radically change what the Hulk looks like.

I think it looks awesome. I think this summer might be the best summer for superhero movies since the first Spider-Man came out.
