Avengers Could an enraged Tony kill Hulk?

So kinda like how in Civil War where Tony gets so enraged that he tries to kill Bucky for murdering his parents. Well what if he tried to do something like that with Hulk? Could he successfully kill him or would Hulk demolish him?

I didn't think that the Hulk could be killed. It's what makes him so monstrous... Banner can never escape, though he's even more monstrous than Hulk is.

‘More monstrous than Hulk is’. Explain.

Banner and Hulk are a retelling of Jekyll and Hyde.

Banner is a little man with extreme anger management issues. He's already proven that he'll do horrible things to get what he wants. Hulk isn't the monster inside of him, he's an expression of Banner's own monstrous tendencies.

  • human experimentation on himself and others

  • enslaving the hulk and keeping his mind in a simulation

  • Disassociative identity disorder

  • Hulk is a physical manifestation of Banner's emotional problems; basically the child core at the heart of Banner's personality given unlimited fuel and power for it's tantrums and a will to dominate everything around it.

I had no idea it worked like this. Thank you. I just know MCU Hulk.
