Dr. Robert Bruce Banner was...is...was a brilliant nuclear scientist who developed weapons for the military. During the testing of his latest weapon, the gamma bomb, Dr. Banner ran out onto the testing range to rescue a teenager named Rick Jones who had driven onto the field. For reasons involving sabotage, the gamma bomb was detonated while Banner was still on the field...And the rays of the gamma bomb affected Banner and changed him into the Hulk.

Over the years the Hulk has gone through many transformations. Some good and some bad. Many people think that Banner only turns into the Hulk in times of stress or pain. But the truth is after the gamma bomb explosion the Hulk's skin was grey, but soon turned to a more familiar green. During this time Banner only turned into the Hulk at sundown and back to his normal self at sunrise. The Hulk himself was portrayed as a confused, shambling creature with an intense hatred for mankind. Not even his companion Rick Jones could control him. Soon the Hulk gets exposed to even more gamma radiation after being banished from Earth in a rocket. When he returns to Earth he can remain the Hulk during the day and has a telepathic link to Rick Jones, obeying his every word. However, the Hulk soon gained the intelligence and personality of Banner.

By the time Incredible Hulk #6 rolled around, Banner could transform back and forth at will by using a gamma ray projector. The Hulk had taken on a nastier, more agressive attitude, and his dialogue sounded more like the Thing's. His hatred for Banner was in full force at this time, but he was shrewd enough to realize when he had to change back into that puny, pink skinned, weakling, Banner. On one of his transformations his whole body changed into the Hulk's except for his head.

Later, when the Hulk returns to Earth after an adventure in outer space, riding a gamma irridated-teleportation beam that ultimately causes a startling change in the Hulk's condition. Banner was now in complete control of the Hulk and would be able to transform just by thinking about it. Every now and then, the Banner persona was lost in those critical times the Hulk became so outraged.

Doc Samson later created the nutrient bath and physically seperated Banner from the Hulk, to give Banner the chance to live the rest of his life without the Hulk. But the Hulk is to important to Banners psyche for them to live seperated. So they both slowly begin to die, untill the android avenger known as Vision reintegrates Banner and the Hulk. But this takes a turn for the worse. While Banner is the Hulk, the Banner body actually begins to come out of the Hulk's body and speaks. The Hulk then falls into the nutrient bath and emerges as the grey Hulk ounce more. Meaning he transforms into the Hulk at night and then returns to Banner at sunrise.

Once again there is a nuclear explosion, but this time the Hulk is bombarded by the rays at ground zero and miracuously survives and later turns up as Mr. Joe Fixit, a peacekeeper, bouncer, and leg-breaker at a Las Vegas casino. He could now exist in the day time although the sun caused him pain. But, the Banner persona soon becomes present again.

The most incredible change Banner went through was when all three of the personalities were combined. It turned out Banner was an MPD...suffering from Multiple Personality Disorder. He had it long before the gamma bomb went off. It didn't create the Hulk, just gave shape to what already existed within him. MPD was brought on by being abused by his father at a young age. Through hypnosis they found the three personalities. They were the green rampaging one...a grey version that wasn't as strong, but far more crafty and intelligent...and the core personality, or "normal" scientist. All three were combined so now Banner has the strength of the green Hulk, the craftiness of the grey, and the intelligence and personality of a nuclear scientist.
