What Season 4 of The Incredible Hulk

David Banner is a physician and scientist at the Culver Institute in California. After the death of his wife, Laura, in a car accident, he devotes his research to people who display superhuman strength in extreme situations. Together with Dr. Elaina Marks, he tests his theory on his own body in a gamma radiation experiment he carries out without supervision. The season opens with a new problem: his transformation into the Hulk is only half complete, leaving him in an in-between state. A military group called Prometheus mistakes him for an alien and captures him. Banner tries to keep his secret while reporter Jack McGee follows his trail, crossing paths with mobsters, thieves and shady characters in every case.
