His guilt and anger with himself for not seeing what Stane was up to, had him \u2018Hulk\u2019 out. He learned quickly to calm himself down \u2026 but his own fears, guilt and anger became a viscous cycle.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"color: #000000;\">He escaped Stane for a few years, not even taking the chance to get a hold of Tony Stark, even after he heard about his kidnapping.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"color: #000000;\">He let his guard down once and ended up captured by Magneto.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"color: #000000;\">A mutant set out to duplicate his \u2018mutation\u2019.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"color: #000000;\">He didn\u2019t have the heart to tell him it wasn\u2019t one.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"color: #000000;\">Bruce was rescued when the Vampires raided the lab, looking for one of theirs.
