:* '''Adaptation to Hostile Habitats''': There have been several events in the past where Hulk has not only faced extended periods of time in oxygen-less outer space without suffocating, but he has also repeatedly spoken in these inhospitable habitats. It was theorized by [[Nick Fury]] that the Hulk could adapt to the environment of space as inherent property of his mutation. He based this thesis on accumulated data about the Hulk.{{r|Incredible Hulk Vol 2 #90}} For example, Hulk can harmonize his biological structure with the depths of the ocean.{{r|Incredible Hulk Vol 3 #9}} This suggests the Hulk could adapt to a wide diversity of inhospitable environments. It is plausible that this power is also enhanced by rage.<br>

What is the Hulk's physical appearance after the mutation? toggle section
After the mutation, the Hulk, also known as Bruce Banner, undergoes a significant physical transformation. His size becomes immense, and his skin, hair, and eyes all turn green. This transformation is a result of his exposure to high levels of gamma radiation, after he jumped into a testing site to save the life of young Rick Jones. The Hulk's appearance can change depending on which alter ego is in control. For instance, Joe Fixit is more intelligent and cunning, while the Green Scar is full of wrathful fury and can erupt with gamma energy. The Hulk's transformation is mostly a stress reaction, making it virtually impossible to attack, wound, or sedate him in his human form without the Hulk erupting almost instantaneously in self-defense.
