DESCRIPTION EQUIPMENT None Robert Bruce Banner, a genius in nuclear physics, was overseeing the test of an experimental gamma bomb at a nuclear research facility in New Mexico. Moments before the test was to go off, Banner noticed a foolish teenager on the test site. Banner saved Rick Jones but was caught by the full blast of gamma radiation. He wasn’t killed, but was instead transformed into a green-skinned monster, the incredible Hulk. The release of adrenaline when Banner becomes intensely excited is all it takes to give rise to the Hulk. The Hulk possesses superhuman strength, which increases the angrier he becomes. He can leap great distances and can cover 3 miles in a single bound. The Hulk's body also possesses a high degree of resistance to disease, injury, and pain. However, he’s not indestructible, nor could he survive a near-hit from a nuclear warhead. He’s usually subdued, not by physical force, but by powerful knockout gases. Banner’s transformations into the Hulk have changed throughout the years. He’s been both green-skinned and gray-skinned. During various periods, he’s even been able to control his transformation or to retain some of Banner’s intelligence while in Hulk form. During one of those periods, he helped form the Avengers. But for most of the time since the accident, the intelligent Banner has been at odds with the brutish Hulk for control of their body. In Hulk form, Banner’s consciousness is buried, and he has very little influence over the Hulk's behavior. Usually the Hulk possesses little of Banner's memory and is easily enraged. The Hulk has the relative intelligence of a child, but with a cunning that aids him in battle. All images are TM & © 2002 Marvel Characters, Inc. All rights reserved.
