sulldog111 Posted April 23, 2020 Share Posted April 23, 2020 I think the character is great also. I can't wait to see him on the screen. He should look fantastic! I've collected all of these variant covers (these images are not mine) as well and done the research on these a long time ago. It is amazing to me that people still do not know the print runs or which are the hard to find variants out of all these. It's sad that people take for gospel whatever is spewed on the hype sites. Here is a quick breakdown of the info that I've learned: Hulk 1 (McGuiness Regular Cover) Print Run (120,000) Hulk 1 (Acuna Cover) (1:10) Variant Print Run (12,000) Hulk 1 (Keown Cover) Dynamic Forces Variant Print Run (4,500) Hulk 1 (Keown Cover) Dynamic Forces Variant Signed Print Run (1,500) Hulk 1 (Turner Cover) Print Run ( I'm not sure, but thought it was 10,000) Hulk 1 (McGuiness Cover) Atomic Comics Variant (came out at a later date than the initial issue)(And if you're questioning this, please ponder why Marvel would allow a store variant the same cover dress as their 1:50 incentive variant) Print Run (Not sure) Hulk 1 (McGuiness) Retailer Incentive Variant (1:50) Print Run (2,400) Hulk 1 (Blank Cover) Hero Initiative Variant Print Run (100) (each copy sketched by a different artist) Hulk 1 (Blank Cover) (Given Away w/out any sketch) Print Run (50-100) And there is a 2nd Print copy out there that I care nothing about with all the other great variants out there. I am always amazed when checking the prices on Ebay and seeing the confusion and disrespect of some of these variants. The Keown cover is spectacular and is 20x as rare as the regular cover and doesn't command the money that the regular cover does. The 1:50 is a VERY low print run no matter how you slice it for mainstream book with 2,500 copies or less and is the best cover of the bunch without the ugly Atomic Comics badge up top. The Atomic Comics variant always gets confused with the 1:50, but was done at a later date even though it hasn't been denoted. The Hulk Hero Initiative variants are incredibly hard to find with only 200 copies out there and are priced as such with asking priced in excess of $800-900. Love to hear any other thoughts and opinions on these books. And if anyone can clarify the print runs of the books that I'm not sure of. Thanks.

ADAMANTIUM Posted April 23, 2020 Share Posted April 23, 2020 No love for "Red-She-Hulk?" If I knew which issue was her 1st app, I'd pick it up too, but can't find it on a "cgc label"; last I checked anyway I had the regular cover Hulk #1 2008. I bought it at a con in like 2018-17, I was so broke at that con but it was $15 and turned into a CGC 9.4 Then I sold it when, I won this 9.6 Michael Turner slab from @JazzMan in the Christmas Raffle pmpknface, Comixroc and littledoom 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
sulldog111 Posted April 23, 2020 Share Posted April 23, 2020 Not a huge fan, she's okay though. It all depends on how they use the character. As for the 1st appearance stuff, it drives me crazy. Her 1st Appearance is the variant cover of #14. Great cover also! But, someone has pushed the 1st Appearance as #16. Same as Ronin. His 1st Appearance is on the cover of New Avengers #1 variant, then again he appeared in full on New Avengers #4 variant, but his "1st" appearance is #11.... It sometimes is nonsensical how they are viewed. To me, a full page splash/cover is not a cameo. Period. The character is prominently and proudly displayed. A cameo is Amazing Spider-man #344 or Superman' Jimmy Olsen #134 (the biggest joke of all as I could give a about Darkseids shadowed image in a monitor in one small panel) but others got their money invested and they will push those books until the end.

Interesting information on Red She-Hulk. Thanks for that! You say her first appearance was on the cover of issue 14 (variant), but her actual “in story” 1st appearance was in issue 16? I always thought it was issue 15.🤔. I’ll have to go back into issues 13, 14 and 15 to unravel the mystery! ADAMANTIUM and Microchip 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

There were a bunch of variants made for almost all the issues. I’d like some more info on which are the tougher variants to get. Thanks for sharing your knowledge.

littledoom Posted May 29, 2020 Share Posted May 29, 2020 Any love for the "yellow hulk"? I have none... looks drastically similar to the red hulk for it to even be considered a different color character ... what about a BLUE hulk? Purple hulk?

Sakaarian collector Posted July 14 Share Posted July 14 Newsie that I found not that long ago (finally), that keeps the 9.4 newsie and a few 9.8 mcguiness variants company. Haven't gotten around to picking up a slabbed copy yet but I love this cap/red hulk cover too.

Otter1775 Posted July 20 Share Posted July 20 Good morning, I never got into the Hulk or Red Hulk, but bought my copy at an LCS here in the greater Baltimore area back in December of 2022 for a $100. I like the fact it was done by the former artist Michael Turner too. Microchip, ADAMANTIUM, Comixroc and 1 other 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
