The scientist Bruce Banner became The Hulk during the testing of a gamma bomb that filled his body with radiation, causing him to transform into a rage-filled green beast when angry. But before he adopted his aggressive alter ego, he was just a kid from the American heartland of Ohio.
Interestingly, two other comic-book characters hail from the humble town of Dayton, as well, though they’re not nearly as well-known as The Hulk. Tommy Glass, from the “American Vampire” series, and Black Alice, who uses her powers to fight drug dealers in Dayton, also call the city home.
