Dr. Edwin Maxwell

A creature of the Bronze Age Marvel universe, Dr. Edwin Maxwell stepped onto the scene in 1979 within the pages of The Incredible Hulk, brought to life by the skilled hands of Sal Buscema, Roger Stern, and Mike Esposito. His world is a turbulent one — he shares those pages with Bruce Banner and the Hulk himself, alongside the likes of Captain Bowman and Lieutenant Diane Perrywinkle, a cast that speaks to the grounded, military-tinged drama that defined so much of that era's Hulk storytelling. With only a handful of appearances across 1979–1981, Maxwell is a compact, purposeful figure — the kind of supporting character whose presence helped give the Bronze Age Hulk its rich texture of human complexity surrounding the green giant.
