I got this in the mail Saturday. It's my newest till tomorrow. It's about a 6.5-7.0 Tanning and smudges holds it back a bit. Still really proud of it.

When did you start getting into this era, Jim?

 

After Megacon. Before the con I started making a want list and realized it was only a couple issues long. Frankly, I'm a little tapped out on BA issues I want or need. Most BA buys these days are potential upgrades that about 70% of the time turn out to not upgrade the comic I already have. :frustrated:

 

I've already been collecting, here and there, the Atlas westerns for a couple years. After looking at some of the horror titles at the con, I decided it was an area I wanted to pursue...

Great book. Very nice find. I am going to make a personal opinion comment and hope I don't get burnt at the stake for it. No offense to your book, but OMG, Herb Trimpe was a TERRIBLE artist!!! That looks like my 6 year old nephew drew it.

I will say he got a little better as the years went by, but even Hulk 181 has horrid art for the intro of a top 5 character of all time. Just my :blahblah:......Great looking books. Hope your not upset with me. I have about 30 of Trimpes Hulk books myself, so........

 

I agree with you about Herb Trimpe.

I agree his line work is definitely not the best in the biz. But imo being a comic artist is more than just that. Herb was great at telling a story with pix and hes a real nice guy to boot :)

Yeah, you are right. Calling him terrible is a bit harsh. He does draw a weird looking Hulk though. His run is probably the one I remember the most as a kid.

You have every right to be proud of that book (worship)
