Major enemies: U-Foes, Abomination, U.S. government, formerly General Ross and the Leader. First appearance: Hulk #1 Origin: Hulk #1 Description: Bruce is an unassuming man standing 5'9'' tall and weighing 128 lbs with brown hair and eyes. As the Hulk he is about 7'6'' tall and weighs 1040 lbs. In this form he has green skin, eyes and hair. Explanation of the conversion: The two sets of Characteristics represent Banner in human and Hulk form. The charges of STR are used to simulate an adrenal boost he can call on a few times a day to increase his strength. The Mental Defense he has in Hulk form represents how difficult his primitive mind is to control. History: Robert Bruce Banner was an abused child who witnessed the death of his mother at the hands of his overbearing father. He was intimidated into telling the authorities it was an accident. Banner killed his father when he was a teenager. Burying his rage and guilt, Banner had developed over the time of childhood a deep and repressive separate personality. He was close friends with his cousin Jennifer Walters. As he grew up Banner attended medical school, but later changed his major to physics and became a scientist of note. A genius in nuclear physics, Robert Bruce Banner went to work for the United States Defense Department nuclear research facility at Desert Base, New Mexico. There, Banner met General Thaddeus E. "Thunderbolt" Ross, the Air Force officer in command of the base, and Ross' daughter Betty. Banner and Betty Ross eventually fell in love with each other. Banner designed and oversaw the construction of the "gamma bomb" or "G-bomb," a nuclear weapon that had a high gamma radiation output. Banner was present in the instrumentation bunker at the test site for the first underground trial detonation of the gamma bomb. Observing that a civilian had breached security and entered the restricted test area, Banner told his colleague Igor Starsky to get the civilian to safety. Starsky, secretly a Soviet agent, did nothing. He was confident that Banner would die in the explosion, bringing the project to a halt. Reaching the civilian, a teenager named Rick Jones, Banner threw him into a protective trench. Before Banner could get himself to safety, the gamma-bomb detonated, and intense waves of radiation hit the surface. Banner was irradiated with highly-charged radioactive particles. At first, Banner changed into a gray-skinned yet intelligent behemoth at sunset and reverted to human form at dawn. However, Banner's body eventually acclimated itself to the changes, so that his transformations into what became termed the Hulk were triggered by the release of adrenaline when he became intensely excited, no matter what time of day or night it was. At this point, the Hulk was a green-skinned monster possessing little of Banner's memory or intelligence and easily enraged. Hence, the Hulk became a menace continually hunted by military forced commanded by the implacable Thunderbolt Ross. The Hulk was joined by Rick Jones, who felt responsible for Banner's condition. Soon, however, Jones left the Hulk to be on his own. For a short time, Banner managed, through radiation treatments, to maintain rudimentary intelligence in the Hulk to control himself in that form, and he even became a founding member of the hero team Avengers in this form (Avengers #1). Still easily excitable, however, the Hulk left the Avengers almost as soon as he joined them, believing his teammates were unappreciative of him. Because of his lack of involvement in the Avengers, his status as a founding member was revoked and given to Captain America. Soon, once again the Hulk lost his intelligence and became a brutish menace. Jennifer had grown up to be a successful prosecuting attorney, she was run off the road by the criminals she was investing. Banner, saved her life by performing an emergency roadside blood transfusion. Jennifer found herself able to transform into the giant She-Hulk, but never restricted by the split-personalities of her cousin, Jennifer was able to transform at will and retain her full intelligence and memories (Savage She-Hulk #1) Once, the Hulk sought in the stars the answer why he always stays alone. An awesome leap launched the emerald giant in orbit. The lack of air rendered him unconcious and gravity pulled him back to earth. Waking up as Bruce Banner, he witnessed of a rocket launch. Inside the control room, Bruce discovered that the occupants were being bombarded by cosmic rays. After a brilliant reprogramming job the ship changed its trajectory returned to Earth. The occupants were changed by the ray exposure. They called themselves the U-Foes: Vector, Vapor, X-Ray and Ironclad. Blaming Bruce for receiving less cosmic rays, thus getting less power, the four went up against him. Banner chenged into the Hulk and leveled the fight, but these guys were too powerful, even for him. Their lack of control made the team work inefficiently preventing victory. Ironclad was unable to control his density kept becomming more dense until he sank into the ground. Vector deflected himself away from the Earth. Vapor couldn't control her form and dispersed. X-Ray suffered from radiation poisoning. Hulk walked away (Incredible Hulk #254). Hulk was among the number of heroes who were transported to the Battleworld of the Beyonder (Marvel Super Heroes Secret Wars #1-12). X-Ray exposed himself to more cosmic rays and was cured. He then irradiated his fellow U-Foes with cosmic rays and they gained control over their powers. They decided to take on the Hulk and win. They then exhibited the captured Banner on television, but Banner transformed into the Hulk and defeated the U-Foes (Incredible Hulk #275-277). Banner would often wander the country, as the Hulk was chased by Ross' government task force, the Hulkbusters as well as the gamma radiation-spawned Abomination and the Leader, among other villains. The Hulk would often find himself in amazing situations, even visiting other planets and dimensions. For a surprisingly long time, Banner managed to hide the fact that he was the Hulk, but his secret inevitably became public knowledge. For years Banner wandered the world as a fugitive, cursed by his recurring transformations into the bestial Hulk. One place where the Hulk was welcome was the sub-atomic world ruled by a princess named Jarella. She saw something of the child-like gentleness of the Hulk, and the two were, after a sort, in love. Tragedy struck when Jarella returned with the Hulk to Earth and surrendered her life to protect a child. Finally, scientist Leonard "Doc" Samson captured the Hulk and succeeded, through unknown means, in separating Banner's psyche and hence Banner and the Hulk were now two separate beings. The Hulk, now free of the last vestiges of Banner's moderating influence, escaped and became a greater menace than ever before. Banner became leader of a new government task force to capture the Hulk, called the new Hulkbusters. Banner also married Betty Ross, believing himself free from the curse of the Hulk. Soon afterwards, Doc Samson discovered that Banner's life force was tied to that of the Hulk, and that their continued separation threatened to kill both of them. A hurried experiment reunited the two in a new arrangement. The Hulk was now gray once more, and again manifested himself only at night. Moreover, he was possessed of all of Banner's intelligence, although few of his specific memories, and none of Banner's morality. He sought to keep himself alive and in control. Only during the full moon, when enough reflected sunlight hit the Earth to bring out some of Banner's buried personality, would the Hulk have any kind feelings whatsoever. The Hulk soon ran afoul of the Leader, who proceeded to trap the Hulk in an enclosed area with a detonating gamma-bomb. Coincidentally, the Hulk was simultaneously brought to Jarella's world, narrowly escaping the effects of the gamma-bomb. The Hulk found himself embroiled in a religious war and agreed to assist one side of wizards in return for their preventing Banner from ever surfacing again. Returned to Earth, the Hulk adopted the identity of Joe Fixit, and sought employment in Las Vegas as a leg-breaker. He joined with Michael Berengetti and the two share a tenuous kind of friendship. The Hulk managed to convince most of his associates that his gray skin was some racial characteristic. He also gotto know a woman named Marlo Chandler. Later, however, the Banner-suppressing spell wore off. Again, the Hulk appeared only at night, with Banner, claiming to be Joe Fixit's half-brother, dominant during the daylight. When the Fantastic Four went missing and believed possibly dead, Hulk teamed up with the Wolverine, Ghost Rider II and Spider-Man in forming a group to look for them. Nevertheless, Betsy, Rick, and Marlo, came back into his life. After extensive therapy from the combined talents of Doc Samson and the criminal hypnotist Ringmaster, the Hulk emerged with the three different personalities fused to one whole. Soon after, the Hulk was contacted by the enigmatic leader Agamemnon to join his clandestine hero team Pantheon. The Hulk served with the Pantheon for a long tenure. Hulk was among the people invited to the wedding of Rick Jones and Marlo Chandler. He was the best man (Incredible Hulk #418). When the hero team known as the Thunderbolts first hit the public scene they tried to make a reputation for themselves by capturing the Hulk, but they failed (Incredible Hulk #449). The Absorbing Man attacked Rick Jones and Janis while they are driving through New Orleans. He destroyed their car and told them they were lucky that he was there just to talk to them. He told them that the Hulk had gotten involved with Apocalypse and that Apocalypse was messing with his mind to create a new dangerous Hulk to send after people. The Absorbing Man and his friends figured Rick could get through to the Hulk. They got on a plane with Creel to find the Hulk. While on the plane, Creel talked to his associates, the New World Order, to give them an update. They landed in Egypt and drove in a jeep when a pyramid was nearly dropped on them. Creel turned into stone and went up against the new Hulk, now called War. Creel grabed the Hulk's sword and tried to absorb it but it is too much and the Absorbing Man broke into pieces (Incredible Hulk #456). Rick gathered all the pieces of the Absorbing Man together in the shape of a man. Creel came back to life and took Janis's staff, absorbing it's powers. Right before the Hulk was about to behead the Juggernaut, Creel came crashing down on him. They fought and the Hulk embeded the sword into Creel's chest. The Hulk regained his mind when he hit Rick against the wall, severly injuring him. The Absorbing Man took the sword out of himself and he and the Juggernaut took Rick to a hospital. He took the sword back to the New World Order to get paid (Incredible Hulk #457). Later, the Hulk became involved in fighting the menace known as Onslaught, which managed to separate the Hulk and Banner once again. Banner seemingly sacrificed himself to contain the energies that made up Onslaught, but was actually shunted to another dimension. Separated from Banner, the Hulk was devoid of intelligence and also began to be physically weaker, dying. He was abducted by the villain Apocalypse to be turned into his Horseman of War, but the Hulk refused, escaping to an island of which the inhabitants set him up as king. When Banner was restored to this reality, he became one with the Hulk once more, reverting to his previous relationship of a green alter ego with limited intelligence, born of rage or adrenaline. Before wandering the nation again, the Hulk severely beat his wife, killing her, and Rick Jones, leaving him paralyzed from the neck down. Once more, the army began hunting the Hulk. When Diablo tried to distract the Avengers by turning the entire population of a small European town into Hulks, the Avengers called on Banner to assist them. He agreed and was able to cause the town to revert to normal. The Avengers allowed him to remain free under the agreement that he stay in contact with them. Powers: The Hulk possesses superhuman strength of the Class 100 level, enabling him to lift (press) in excess of 100 tons. He attains his highest strength levels when enraged. The Hulk can also leap vast distances, and has demonstrated a powerful healing factor. For an unknown reason he can see astral bodies. Character created by Marvel Comics.
