Sounds like someone just watched Unbreakable for the first time.

Super heroes are red and blue, super villains are green and purple.

So:

So I know what you're thinking... "What about Hulk? Green skin, purple pants, why is he a hero?"

"Simple: he wasn’t originally the hero. In the early issues of the character, the Hulk was more of a villain, destroying everything in his path and Dr. Bruce Banner was the hero of the story."

Hulk was originally grey. Printing error made him green, they kept it.

I think it was more that the printer couldn't consistently make him the same gray, but could with green

This adds up really nicely with the newest video of Razbuten "How Games Make Villains Sound Evil"
