10 Need-To-Know Facts About The Sensational She-Hulk

10. She's Bruce Banner's Cousin

Bruce Banner was exposed to radiation from a gamma bomb, which causes him to turn into the Hulk every time he loses his temper. This much is common knowledge - but many people don't realise that the gamma particles are now in every part of his body including his blood.

When his cousin, Jennifer Walters, was shot by a crime boss, he had to give her a blood transfusion to keep her alive. This gamma particles that flows in Bruce's veins passed onto Jen, causing her to turn into a green giant called She-Hulk.

She-Hulk may be endowed with super-strength, durability, and agility like her cousin but there are some major differences between the two. Although Bruce's transformation into the Hulk is triggered by anger, Jen can change into her alter-ego and back whenever she chooses.

But the gamma radiation doesn't just affect their bodies differently; it also affects their minds. Unlike her cousin, Jen preserves her intellect and personality when she changes. Bruce Banner is unable to maintain his personality during his transformation due to suffering too much trauma as a child.
