The Hulk is a character from Marvel Comics and prominent in the Marvel Cinematic Universe.
History
Dr. Bruce Banner was a researcher attempting to reproduce the "super soldier serum" that was used to transform the sickly young Steve Rogers into Captain America. He believed that gamma radiation was the key to achieving similar or better results, and used himself as a test subject. He accidentally over-exposed himself to the gamma rays, resulting in his periodic transformation into the Hulk.
Attributes
Dr. Banner is a scientific genius with expertise in medicine and radiation. His physical traits are unremarkable unless something triggers one of his transformations into the Hulk. These transformations can be triggered by uncontrolled rage or an imminent threat. Dr. Banner has also shown that he can trigger the transformation at will.
