* CorruptedCharacterCopy: Damage from this series is a DarkerAndEdgier [[HULKMASHUp take]] on the [[ComicBook/TheIncredibleHulk Hulk]]. Rather than being a NonActionGuy scientist who was turned into a massive green goliath purely by accident and was forced to adapt and live with a rageful child-like [[SplitPersonality alter ego]] like Bruce did, Ethan Avery is instead a soldier who desperately wanted superpowers and willingly signed up for the procedure, which turned out to be a cruel case of BeCarefulWhatYouWishFor. Additionally while the Hulk persona is innocent and sympathetic only resenting Bruce for shunning him, the Damage persona is cruel and insidious, manipulating Ethan into handing him control of their body by exploiting his resentments.
