joeypost Posted November 21, 2006 Share Posted November 21, 2006 It has always been a dream of mine to own the original 6 Hulk books in FN+ or better. Actually I would like to own them in NM but who can afford that anymore. I have 4 of the 6 so far and a Hulk #2 in at CGC and a deal going with a board member for the #3...all I have to do is see the scans to finalize the deal. Here is a picture of what I have so far: #1(CGC 6.5), #4(CGC 7.0), #5(CGC 7.0), #6(CGC 6.5) Sorry for the poor photo but I did not have time for scans. I will have the other 12 centers up soon. Post them if you have them. grendelbo and Math Teacher 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

namisgr Posted November 21, 2006 Share Posted November 21, 2006 Nice Hulk #1! Here is a milestone ish - before it, the identity of the Hulk's alter ego was known only to Rick Jones. Unlike the Distinguished Competition, this cover really did portend the shocking story inside: grendelbo 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

namisgr Posted November 22, 2006 Share Posted November 22, 2006 This one is hard to find in nice shape - my copy is a nice midgrade. It is the Slobodian copy, obtained from Marnin Rosenberg, the dealer who first sold most of the Slobodian Marvels. Considering that the Slobodian Hulk 4 is cgc 9.6, and none of the other Slobodian early Hulks have a grease pencil arrival date, I strongly suspect that my ish was bought by Slobodian second hand back in the day, rather than right off the rack. Notice how from the cover art, it appears Kirby still hadn't settled on making Hulk green or gray. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

With Cream-Off white pages That's what I was thinking...I passed up on that book about a year ago and have regretted it ever since (the cream to off-white pages was the hold up)...when I changed my mind and went to purchase it, it had been sold a week earlier... If you're interested in selling it (and it's the 104 NL)... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

joeypost Posted November 25, 2006 Author Share Posted November 25, 2006 Thanks Arex. The scans do not do this book justice. It looks a lot sharper than the 9.4 grade. I have gone over this book many times and cannot find enough wrong with it to keep it out of 9.6 range. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
