Dr. Bruce Banner was supervising the experimental trials of the gamma bomb for the U.S. military, when he halted the test to rescue Rick Jones, a reckless teenager who had driven onto the desert testing field on a dare. A Soviet spy, Igor Drenkov, seeking to eliminate Dr. Banner and steal his gamma radiation secrets, detonated the bomb. Banner managed to save Jones by pushing him into a blast ditch, but he wasn't so lucky. Struck full-force by the gamma bomb, Banner survived but was irradiated by the otherwise deadly gamma energy, transforming him into the brutish Incredible Hulk!
