According to Ask.com
" A story or legend forming part of an oral tradition."
I would argue no, The Hulk is not a folktale. He was created by Stan Lee
when he worked for Marvel Comics. He also became a TV series and Movie.
See below from the Stan Lee web site.

"THE START OF ³THE MARVEL AGE OF COMICS²
Stan Lee, unchained, next went on to create the Hulk, who enjoyed an initial

and he marched Marvel on with yet another of his creations‹Spider-Man. "
