Synopsis: Bruce Banner is a highly respected scientist in the industry. He has tried to replicate 'the super soldier serum', or that was what his boss Thaddeus Ross had said. In fact, he produced a so-called "gamma radiation", which could turn any individual into a large, green creature. Bruce is finally done with his super soldier serum, or so he thought. He shows his creation to Ross, and they go straight to test it. Ross forces Bruce to become a test subject and when the experiment is tested, he turns into a big and angry monster. Bruce angrily breaks out of the lab and runs as far from New York as he can. Bruce is transformed from the green creature, and after a while he manages to conclude that the monster is triggered by anger. With this info in mind, he returns to New York. He returns to the lab and transforms into "the hulk". He confronts Ross, who apparently managed to replicate the serum with the help of the brilliant scientist Samuel Sterns. Ross presents "the Abomination", and another green creature emerges. Bruce recognizes the refraction, Ross has used the gamma radiation on Emil Blonsky, a Russian soldier who absolutely hates Bruce. The two monsters have a brutal fight that destroys the entire lab, and also large parts of the city of Dayton. In the end, Bruce wins, and he transforms into his true self.
