My Favorite Marvel Easter Egg

As I am a huge fan of Jack McGee, the reporter character played by Jack Colvin in the TV series The Incredible Hulk, it's not surprising that my favorite Easter Egg in any MCU film is this shot of a pair of students who appear on a news broadcast in the movie The Incredible Hulk. One of them, not at all coincidentally, bears the name Jack McGee.

And a big thanks to the website whatculture.com for pointing it out.

Facts About Jack McGee from The Incredible Hulk

As a fan of tv's The Incredible Hulk, and more particularly, of reporter Jack McGee as played by Jack Colvin, I often lamented that there was so little revealed about my favorite reporter. Here, then, are the facts as we know them:

• His middle initial is R (The Waterfront Story)
• He was born in May or June (Stop the Presses)
• His home town is St. Louis (Mystery Man)
• He served in the Air Force in Korea, but dislikes flying (also Mystery Man)
• He plays golf (The Hulk Breaks Las Vegas)
• He can scuba dive (Equinox)

The Best Jack McGee Episodes of The Incredible Hulk

If you're a Jack McGee fan, like me, you know that some episodes of The Incredible Hulk tv series are better at showcasing our favorite reporter than others. These are the best of the best for McGee fans:

• Mystery Man: McGee and Banner strike up an unlikely, if temporary friendship, and Jack learns that the Hulk is really a man who transforms.
• Prometheus: Jack displays his investigative skills and stick-to-it-ivity infiltrating a secret government complex.
• The Hulk Breaks Las Vegas: Jack interacts with some friends for a change and tries to communicate with the Creature for the first time.
• Equinox: McGee never gets closer to seeing John Doe's face than in this episode.
• Proof Positive: Jack takes the spotlight, revealing tidbits about his personal life in the process.
• Stop the Presses: McGee shows his ethical side. And shoots himself in the leg.

The Incredible Jack McGee -- An Episode Guide

If you're like most people of a certain age, you tuned in to The Incredible Hulk every week to see what the Creature would smash this episode. Some, no doubt, also watched the show to catch David's transformation and surname of the week. But there were a few who knew the real reason to view the series: Jack McGee. The intrepid reporter didn't appear in every episode, but he kept things lively, forcing Banner to come up with ever-more-creative methods for dodging exposure.

This episode guide is for McGee-lovers everywhere.

The Incredible Hulk pilot

Intrepid reporter Jack McGee makes multiple requests to gain an interview with scientists David Banner and Elaina Marks for The National Register, a cheap, sensationalist newspaper beneath his talents. The scientists are studying human strength enhancement, but they refuse to grant him an interview. Jack even visits Dr. Marks's home, though it does him no good. When Dr. Banner's car is found smashed in a ditch, McGee investigates and finds enormous footprints at the scene. He further interviews a man and his young daughter who report an encounter with a 7-foot hulking greenish creature. McGee confronts Banner and Marks with a plaster cast of the prints, but they deny any knowledge of the Hulk. Convinced that the scientists are hiding something, McGee sneaks into their lab to learn more, finding evidence that the Creature had been there. Banner returns and finds Jack there, escorting the reporter outside just before the building explodes and McGee is knocked senseless. He comes to just in time to get his first look at the Hulk, which emerges from the blaze carrying Dr. Marks. McGee tries to find Dr. Banner, but it's impossible to enter the inferno. Dr. Marks is later found dead; Banner's body is never found at all. Jack makes it his mission to track down the Hulk and learn the true story of the Creature. More...

Agents of SHIELD -- Final Season Predictions

Watching the final season of Marvel's Agents of S.H.I.E.L.D. started me thinking about how it all will end. And that led to these ideas, which I thought I should record, just to look back later and see if I was right. Predicting a series known for its surprises (Ward is Hydra) won't be easy, but I can't help thinking that, when the dust has settled, we will see:

Mac will step down as Director and retire from S.H.I.E.L.D. altogether.

Yo-Yo will lose her powers and... More...
