The Incredible Hulk #1 in context
Why collectors care
The Incredible Hulk #1 (1962) is the first appearance and origin of the Hulk, a foundational Silver Age Marvel key. This first issue famously depicts the Hulk in grey before the character became green.
How to identify it
A 1962 first printing at 12 cents, not the facsimile or reprints. Confirm the early Marvel indicia.
Common mistakes
Reprints and the facsimile are conflated with the original. Restoration is very common on this scarce book and must be graded and disclosed.
Grade considerations
Genuine high-grade copies are exceptionally scarce, so census position, restoration status, and page quality dominate value.
