Biography[]
- "So, they'll do a bad thing, pick him off while he's still young."
- âDaniel Sousa[src]
Bruce Banner was born in an alternate 1969, created due to the time-travelling Chronicoms branching the timeline. In 1973, HYDRA, working with the Chronicoms covertly inside of S.H.I.E.L.D., announced Project Insight, which would use a satellite to kill anyone who posed a threat to the Chronicom colonization of Earth. Among the people targeted by Insight was Banner, as his original timeline self would grow up to become one of the world's greatest scientists, as well as a nigh-unstoppable monster called the Hulk.
A team of S.H.I.E.L.D. agents from 2019 arrived in 1973, chasing the Chronicoms through time, and soon discovered Insight. Agents Daisy Johnson and Daniel Sousa hacked into Insight's database, discovering the list of targets including Banner. Though Sousa, who originated from 1955, did not know Banner's name, Johnson did, and the two soon realized the Chronicoms were using their knowledge of the future to kill anyone who posed a threat, even in the future. Johnson and Sousa's teammates later destroyed the Insight satellite, saving Banner.[2]
