Hulk

The Green Giant himself, The Hulk!


Originally, Dr. Bruce Banner was a scientist who specialized in gamma ray radiation. One day, Dr. Banner was conducting an experiment with gamma radiation in an open desert field. The facility was counting down the seconds when the radiation would be released in the desert area when a teen unknowingly wandered into the test site. Banner rushed out of the safety zone to rescue the teen. Banner was able to get the teen to safety but it was too late for save himself. The gamma radiation was released and Banner was exposed to it all.
After the accident, Banner realized the radiation untapped a beast that was deep within him. Whenever Banner gets angry, he transform in a big green brute known as the Hulk. On the run from the military, who wants to use him as a weapon, Banner tries to find a cure for himself. Banner then realizes that he can use this monster to do some good. If anyone threatens him or anyone that he cares about, he will unleash the beast!
