In Marvel Feature #1, the first Defenders story, Dr. Strange discovered that Hulk could see (and hear) his ectoplasmic form. Since ghosts are supposedly made of ectoplasm, I presume whoever wrote that OHOTMU entry extrapolated from that (though I can't recall any story where Hulk interacted with an actual ghost).
Cei-U! I summon the Ouija board!
Thanks for the clarification. It seems a rather bizarre and superfluous power for the Hulk to have.

Yep, I remember him only interacting with astral projection or similar.

It annoys me when "healing" is conflated with "regeneration."
When it got to the point that Wolverine could survive being burned down to his skeleton, the idea went too far.
To me, the idea behind Wolverine's powers - both the healing and the adamantium skeleton - seemed to be a means of making Wolverine the ultimate tough guy. When the greasy Canadian tough guy can survive an atom bomb, it kinda misses the point IMO.
I also think the more exaggerated a character's ability to recover damage is the more thought is put into how exactly to kill them, which in turn paradoxically undermines their invulnerability.

Surely Batman has been shot at least once, my friend? Batman has taken bullets many times in the Golden, Silver and Bronze Ages/ The plot of Brave and Bold #100, for instance, is premised on other heroes having to take over his case while he awaits life-saving surgery.
Cei-U! I summon the Band-Aid!
And as usual, Batman wears his bandages -- and the occasional cast -- over his costume...
