HULK 181........the most undervalued, overlooked, unapreciated key ever!

[COI]

Maybe we should start a thread on Hulk 181, as it seems very unapreciated to me. We could call it:

 

- Ultimates next Hulk 181? Don't think so.

 

or

 

- Will there be another Hulk 181?

or

 

- Is Daredevil 168 the next Hulk 181?

or

 

- Hulk 181

or

 

- If you want a laugh - Hulk 181 9.8 (not)

or

 

- What book would you rather have than a Hulk 181 CGC 9.4?

or

 

- The most valuable Bronze Age book in 20 years?

or

 

- CGC 9.9 HULK #181 "The One and ONLY" is going to San Diego Comic Con!

or

 

- For all you folks who paid THOUSANDS for HG Hulk 181...

or

 

- My Holy Grail is up!!! Hulk 181 CGC 9.8 oww

or

 

- Hulk 181 (again) in the 2003 Guide?

or

 

- Green Label SHOULD NOT affect collectability...

or

 

- deception on hulk #181.......?

or

 

- Yet another Hulk 181 thread

or

 

- Hulk 181 cgc 1.5

or

 

- Hulk #181, how high can it go?

or

 

- Hulk 181 How high can it go, 2!

or

 

- WOW!!!! HULK 181 CGC 9.9

or

 

- HULK #181 CGC 9.9!!! DAMN!

or

 

Any interest I may have ever had in this book whatsoever is now gone. I went from looking at the cover in awe as a 10 year old, to ripping out the cover to my O.S Grading guide so that I wouldn't have to look at a Hulk 181 everytime I picked it up

 

I would like to formally thank this forum for saving me thousands of $$$$ by making me NEVER want to own a copy of this book EVER.

Easy to save thousands of $$. Just buy a vf Hulk 181 without MVS or stick the recent Hulk 181 reprint book into a mylar. Looks just like the real thing from a distance.

Your welcome......

People talk about a book a lot and then you dont want it anymore! hmmm ...

Nice post AK.

I must however, take some of the flack here for starting one of the first threads on this book. I never could have realised how it would all snowball.

[THE_BEYONDER]

This was mine....." Green Label SHOULD NOT affect collectability...". But in my defence, my thread had very little to do with HULK 181, and more to do with CGC's "QUALIFIED" label.

[KeyMarvelComix-migration]

Lets all start a thread on what books we dont like!!! A thread for Each Book ... and say why you dont like it and how youd roll it up and smoke it if you ever got the chance!

Preach, Brother!

 

The best solution is to create a brand new forum devoted solely 100% to the Incredible Hulk 181 holiest of holy grails. Then the 3 or 4 of us with no opinion on the matter can ignore it completely. Arch? Oh, Arch...

Then maybe we really should start a few dozen more threads on this book...maybe it will frustrate even more of the CGC HIGH ROLLERS (yea bayby, yea!) around here and I can finally get a nice copy of this book for a more reasonable price.

You mean you still want a copy after all that?

bump for new hulk 181 thread particpants

[harveyfan323]

I've got agree with you on this one. I've never totally understood how Hulk #181 became so admired. It is a fun book and Wolverine is a good character, but I've always thought X-Men #94 was a more desirable Bronze Age book by far. It is nice to see X-Men 94 go for lots more than Giant Size X-Men #1 as I always thought that's the way it should be. It is like for years when Overstreet insisted that Fantastic Four #1 was more valuable than Amazing Fantasy #15 and AMS #1. I always knew that more people cared about Spidey than the FF and finally Overstreet accepted this in their pricing. I've gone off on a tangent here, but I like your thread and the good point it makes.

Well, the current price reversal is all supply-based, as X-Men 94 was printed in far, far, far less quantity than GS X-Men 1. The dark cover exacerbates this supply imbalance even more.

 

But in terms of importance, GS X-Men #1 is by far the superior book, with the first New X-Men, the first Storm, Colossus, Nightcrawler, and the second full Wolverine. If HG supplies were equivalent, I could see GS X-Men selling for up to double the same-grade X-Men 94.
