A limited edition giclée on paper of 295 signed by Marvel Comics legend, Stan Lee.

Cover artist: Jack Kirby (May 1962)

The Incredible Hulk #1: “The Strangest Man of All Time!”

Part of the second release of Marvel editions published by Washington Green and hand-signed by the late great Stan Lee, who designed all of the classic Marvel comic-book characters back in the 60's, this superb giclée print on paper was one of only four covers specially selected by Stan Lee for a fine art portfolio to feature 'The Incredible Hulk'.

Comes signed and numbered, with the original certificate of authenticity from Washington Green.

The cover art was done by the legendary Jack Kirby, with the internal storyline written by Stan Lee, pencilled by Kirby and inked by Paul Reinman.

This was the first ever comic to feature The Incredible Hulk (Dr. Bruce Banner).

The origins of the Hulk were revisited many times, and in this initial outing, Banner's transformation into the Hulk depicts a monster with Grey Skin - immediately after in Incredible Hulk #2 the Hulk has green skin.

Backstory: The Coming of the Hulk:

At an Army base in the desert, Dr. Bruce Banner is readying the first test of his invention, the G-Bomb. General "Thunderbolt" Ross wants to know why Banner keeps delaying the test. His daughter Betty tries to calm him down, with little success. Banner tells Ross that the final countdown has begun. His assistant, Igor, demands that Banner share his work so that someone may check his calculations. "I don't make errors, Igor," says Bruce, and, when Igor threatens him, "You know how I detest men who think with their fists."

Banner takes a last look at the bomb with binoculars. He notices a teenage boy in a car, tells Igor to halt the countdown, and hurries after the boy in a jeep. Igor, who supposedly defected to the U.S. from the Soviet Union, is a spy and decides not to stop the countdown so that America will lose its greatest nuclear physicist. Banner gets the boy into a trench, but, before he can jump in himself, the G-Bomb explodes! Gamma rays saturate Banner's body.

The rest is history.
