History

In the past Thaddeus "Thunderbolt" Ross recruited the scientist Bruce Banner and utilize his research into gamma radiation to build a gamma bomb. Around that time, Bruce was dating to his daughter, Betty Ross behind his back which he was completely against. Upon Banner being exposed by the radiation from the gamma bomb that turned him into the monstrous Hulk, Ross made it his life's mission to subdue the giant green beast and weaponize it.
