Thaddeus "Thunderbolt" Ross is former U.S. military general. He is father of Bruce Banner's love Betty Ross and was archenemy of the Incredible Hulk. Ross made a deal with villains to be transformed into a Hulk himself. As the ruthless and cunning Red Hulk, he attempted to destroy his nemesis and take control of the country before seeking redemption as an Avenger. After leaving the team, he formed his own group of Thunderbolts with other Anti-Heroes. He was recently depowered by Doctor Green.
He's already been revealed in issue #1. I'm more interested in how he became a Hulk and why red. Maybe I'll write up a summary this afternoon. I won't give it away here. Plus I think there's already a couple Red Hulk threads in the Hulk forum
It looked as though Rick Jones was the Red Hulk. If it is him, it will probably be explained by the fact that he was pretty close to Bruce when the original gamma bomb went off and it was unlocked by his proximity to the massive satelite blast that took out WWH.
However, Jeph Lobe tends to start his 'mystery' arcs with a misdirection. So I would say the LEAST likely person is Rick Jones.
