 Bruce Banner vs David Banner - The Superhero Hype! Boards   (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-24)
Does anybody know why this is? we recently saw the episode of family guy where peter says "david banner, I just slashed your tires" and i said to myself "doesn't he mean Bruce Banner" and thus the argument began.
I thought it was the TV network (ABC?) that thought the name "Bruce" sounded gay so they told (or something to that effect) Marvel they were going to change his name to 'David'.
For the show, however, the character was renamed David, in part because the name "Bruce" was considered too homosexual.
