Kate Waynesboro

Kate Waynesboro is a S.H.I.E.L.D. scientist and agent who becomes entangled with Bruce Banner and the Hulk, navigating the dangerous intersection of espionage and gamma-powered conflict. Her loyalties and scientific expertise place her at the heart of some of the Hulk's most turbulent storylines.

Greg Pak and Leonard Kirk introduced Kate Waynesboro to the Marvel Universe in 2008's WWH Aftersmash: Warbound #1, dropping her into one of the Modern Age's most charged corners of Hulk mythology alongside heavy hitters like Korg, No-Name, and the ever-dangerous Leader. Her catalog footprint spans an impressive seventeen years, and her appearances in the Incredible Hulk Epic Collection and Marvel Masterworks volumes signal that she belongs to a lineage worth tracing. A relatively rare find with only eight logged appearances, she's the kind of character that rewards the dedicated reader who digs deeper into Marvel's Hulk-adjacent world.
