Subject:
The Hulk (Bruce Banner)
Supervising
the trial of an experimental gamma bomb for the U.S.
Defense Department at a nuclear research facility in
New Mexico, Dr. Robert Bruce Banner selflessly rushed
to the rescue of an ignorant teenager who had wandered
onto the testing field as the countdown ticked inexorably
toward zero. After shoving young Rick Jones to safety
in a nearby ditch, Banner was struck full-force by the
bomb blast. He survived, but was irradiated by the deadly
gamma energy.
At
first, Banner would transform into the brutish gray
Hulk only at sunset, and revert to human form at dawn.
Eventually, his changes into the childlike green Hulk
came to be triggered by the release of adrenaline
when he was intensely excited, no matter what time
of day. The green Hulk possesses little of Banner's
memory and intelligence, and is easily enraged; making
him a menace to society.
Powers:
The
Hulk possesses an incredible level of superhuman physical
ability. His capacity for physical strength is potentially
limitless due to the fact that the Hulk's strength increases
proportionally with his level of great emotional stress,
anger in particular. The Hulk uses his super humanly strong
leg muscles to leap great distances. The Hulk has been known
to cover hundreds of miles in a single bound and once leaped
almost into orbit around the Earth. The Hulk has shown a
high resistance to physical damage nearly regardless of
the cause, and has also shown resistance to extreme temperatures,
poisons, and diseases in addition to regeneration of damaged
or destroyed areas of tissue at an amazing rate.
The Hulk's body also has a gland that makes an "oxygenated
per fluorocarbon emulsion", which creates pressure
in the Hulk's lungs and effectively lets him breathe underwater
and move quickly between varying depths without concerns
about decompression or nitrogen narcosis.
Abilities
Dr. Bruce Banner is a genius in nuclear physics, possessing
a mind so brilliant that it cannot be measured on any known
intelligence test. When Banner is the Hulk, Banner's consciousness
is buried within the Hulk's, and can influence the Hulk's
behavior only to a very limited extent.
