Hulk

Bruce Banner is known by the military police as a fugitive, wanted for questioning and all sorts of other things. These secret authorities seek him. The Hulk is an urban legend that had its origin in the desert and around the country. The more common these sightings are, the more believable they can be. However, not everyone believes in green monsters, no matter how common the reports.

Background
Doctor David Banner was a talented geneticist, although his experiments descended into the bizarre and the surreal with each passing day. His animal and plant test subjects were often mutated into grotesque, unseemly creatures. Using unusual methods, Banner tried to discover the secrets of immortality, but grew more aloof and desperate with each passing failure. He even began experimenting on himself, sneaking from his home on a military ranch, into the base research station at night. After the birth of his son Bruce, David Banner became even more angry and resentful, especially at the military for their refusal to go along with his experiments. Enraged, an argument with his wife caused David to stab and kill her in front of his son. David was later institutionalized and put away for many years. Bruce Banner became severely introverted thanks to the trauma and he coped with the pain by blocking it completely out, forgetting his past, even taking the last name of his new, adoptive parents. He lived with his aunt until college, which he attended under a science scholarship. After graduating with top honors, he went to work for the military at the United States Defense Department's top research facility in New Mexico. Bruce worked alongside several other top men, along with noted scientist and past friend, Betty Ross. Ross somehow re-developed an attachment to the quiet Bruce Banner and they became close again. Banner became an expert in genetic manipulators like nanomeds and gamma radiation, a great unknown variable which could warp cells. The military named Bruce Banner to be supervisor for the experimental gamma bomb project, but the dreadful weapon had mysterious qualities he tried to caution everyone about. Banner explained that gamma radiation possessed mysterious qualities that even he couldn't explain. However, the work continued.

Secretly, Major Glenn Talbot tried to undermine Bruce's work for the approval of Betty, but ended up bullying the weaker Bruce with demands and orders. Bruce's biological father returned to his life and also began demanding things of him. The anger and frustration began to boil inside Bruce and his temper began to get the best of him. Bruce reluctantly supervised the testing of the first gamma bomb detonation, safely protected in a desert base with the others, but something went wrong. A teenager named Rick Jones wandered into the restricted area and Bruce quickly rushed to save him from the bomb, which ticked ominously down toward zero. He saved the young man by pushing him into a nearby trench, but Bruce was struck full-force by the bomb blast. Rushed to the hospital, Bruce apparently was completely unharmed, unaffected by the gamma radiation from the bomb, which doctors could not explain. However, Bruce began to change and became a hulking behemoth at sunset, trashing the labs and destroyed the gamma research in his great anger. Betty's father, General Thaddeus Thunderbolt Ross, began an investigation into what happened at the lab and accused Bruce of things he could not remember. However, Ross discovered that Bruce was more screwed up than he thought he was, but still threatened him and demanded he stay away from Betty. David Banner successfully uncovered what had really happened to Bruce and taunted him with this secret, wanting to control it as much as the military wanted to destroy it. However, even Bruce himself was unable to control his daily mutations into the monster and only the attention from Betty seemed to calm the mindless HULK.

After confronting Betty, Bruce changed back to normal but could barely remember anything and fainted. Delivering him to the military, Betty begged her father to help him with the transformations, but the General remained skeptical. The General gave the Hulk to Talbot to research, but the monster broke free and Talbot was accidentally killed in the melee. Now charged with murder, the military began a manhunt to take the monster down. Having descended into madness, David confronted Bruce and was killed. Very upset, The Hulk leaped all the way to San Francisco to find Betty, but the military followed him and the fight continued. General Ross tried to corner the Hulk, but used a powerful bomb to stop the monster dead. However, the disintegrating bomb failed to kill The Hulk and he escaped. However, the military stayed unaware of their failure until urban legends and sightings of the green monster began to occur across the country. After calming down, Bruce Banner tried to avoid being discovered and wandered the United States posing as a homeless man down on his luck. Meanwhile, he continued searching for a cure until the day he could find a way to control the raging spirit that dwells within him.

Personality
It has been said that the Hulk is a repressed part of Bruce Banner's personality. The Hulk is a literal beast, with no manners and is prone to violent fits of rage, like a child. In fact, his personality is much like that child because his intelligence is comparable to a five year old, except for the crying when he doesn't get what he wants. Instead, the Hulk is loud, single-minded, and resorts to violence to get what he wants. He has an incredible temper, flying off the handle at the smallest slight and often whapping those who get in his face. He thinks about what he has to do and finds it hard to charge course, but has incredible drive to get the job done. His anger drives him and controls nearly everything he does. This savage Hulk considers himself the dominant partner in conjunction with "puny" Bruce Banner, insulting him often about not being strong enough, as if he were a separate person. This separation illustrates how disconnected Bruce Banner is from his problems, as he has never really dealt with them directly. The Hulk works as the direct force, the macho power that bullies and often declares how he will smash his way to victory. He is a lumbering giant and thinks simply, as though the world were black and white. He hates being yelled at, despises long talkers, dreads arrogant orders, and strikes out against anything trying to repress him. The Hulk is the opposite of Bruce Banner.

Doctor Bruce Banner is highly intelligent and possesses a refinement that the beast cannot even fathom. He has a conservative way about him and is also quite a tightwad. He is a nerdy scientist who often broods and is depressed about whatever, but he rarely does anything about it. The Hulk is the one who acts, but Bruce often considers this an overreaction and a dangerous part of himself that should be cut out. He wants to repress the Hulk like he represses many emotions. He feels uncomfortable in confrontational situations, although deals with this by often growing quiet. As a throwback to his abusive childhood, the Hulk always violently demands he wants to be alone, while Bruce cannot put such a thing into words. While intelligent, Bruce Banner is often uncomfortable and weak. There are some strengths to Bruce Banner however, as he can think through more complex problems and hide his emotions, while the Hulk's emotions are clearly bubbling on the surface. Bruce Banner can be friendly or casual, while the Hulk can only be calmed down. Bruce is a focused, determined man, quite professional when the circumstances are right and even clever in certain situations.
