>>105998487>Stark is also apparently an expert in gamma energyNobody is more of an expert in Gamma than Bruce Banner.
But nobody knows more about bombs and how you build them than Tony Stark. The story went out of its way to suggest Bruce is not naturally a weapons designer.
>>105997992>What the fuck happened with that?Exactly that. It just wasn't what was originally suggested.
If Tony - initially motivated by arrogance - hadn't modified the Gamma bomb, it would have contained the blast a few milliseconds longer, so that it would be more powerful than it turned out... and killed everyone on the site, first and foremost Bruce Banner. No Hulk... just a vague blemish on a plain of glowing Trinitite.
It's even worse: Tony left Bruce a voice message which might have saved him altogether, but Bruce was so pissed-off (understandably so) he never listened to it.
