And the question is why the hell did Dr. Banner created something like that? |

** Banner made it because he was a weapon's developer for the U.S. army. The problem is the sliding time scale; when he originally made it it was during the nuclear arms race of the cold war, making perfect sense. Current timeline puts him making it sometime in the late 90s/early 2000s. If one counts the sliding time scale as meaning the fantastic four encountered the Kree and Scrull empires before Banner became the Hulk, one could posit they were researching powerful weapons to fend of alien invasions. The gamma bomb is generally referenced to one of if not the strongest bomb earth has ever produced. |

** Interestingly enough, Hulk has actually called Banner out on this a couple times, giving him a [[What the Hell Hero]] over the fact that despite his genius intellect, on the level of Reed Richards and Doctor Doom, instead of actually ''helping'' people, he made bombs for a living. I recall a couple storylines, not in main continuity, where Banner was something of an [[The Atoner|atoner]], having a fair amount of guilt from having devoted his life to such destruction, though at least one had him rationalizing that he did it [http://tvtropes.org/pmwiki/pmwiki.php/Main/Ptitleb1zcb36l because he was good at it.] |
