GD/VG, Off-white pages. If I won the lottery I'd like to get a 4.5 or better copy, but right now I've got bills to pay. I bought this book raw for $1700 and sent it in for grading. Came back at a decent grade, no writing or tape on this book whatsoever. Just some marvel chipping, moderate spine roll and a couple small water stains on the front cover keep this out of the 4.0 range...The first appearance and origin of the Incredible Hulk in "The Coming of the Hulk." Script by Stan Lee, pencils by Jack Kirby, inks by Paul Reinman. 1st app. Rick Jones, General Ross, and Betty Ross. It's the height of the Cold War and the government is about to test their new Gamma Bomb. Unfortunately, a carefree and oblivious teenager named Rick Jones wanders out onto the test area. Dr. Bruce Banner, the creator of the Gamma Bomb, rushes out to warn the young man away. However, the bomb explodes and as Banner pushes the teenager to safety he is caught in the heart of a Gamma maelstrom. The gamma-rays that bombard Banner's taunt frame transform his physiology. Now, whenever Banner becomes angry he transforms into the man-brute known as the Incredible Hulk. Feared by the public and hunted by the army, the Hulk becomes one of the most tragic figures in Marvel's history. General "Thunderbolt" Ross will not rest until the Hulk is destroyed. The creature's only allies are Rick Jones and Betty Ross, Thunderbolt's daughter and Banner's one true love. Thus begins the epic saga of the world's mightiest mortal. NOTE: Notice that the Hulk was colored grey for the first few issues of his series. In an interview, Stan Lee (creator) said very simply that the reason for this was that grey was the easiest color for the copiers of the time to print. When the technology got better the Hulk became green, and according to Stan, for no better reason than they didn't have a green hero in their stable yet. Cover price $0.12.

GD/VG, off-white pages. This was the last of the six I needed to complete the set. It was up for auction, but I talked the seller into selling to me outright since another 3.0 would fit nicely in this collection..."The Beauty and the Beast." Script by Stan Lee, pencils by Jack Kirby, inks by Dick Ayers. "The Incredible Hulk vs. the Hordes of General Fang." Script by Lee, pencils by Kirby, inks by Ayers. Kirby/Ayers cover. Cover price $0.12.

GD/VG, off-white to white pages. Book length crease on front cover and some other undesirables keep this from reaching a higher VG grade. But still a tight copy with date stamp on back cover...Introduction of the Teen Brigade in "The Metal Master." Script by Stan Lee, art and cover by Steve Ditko. Cover price $0.12.
