That Abomination piece really makes me wish I gave a hoot about the
character!

That really surprises me. Years ago, when you took over The Incredible Hulk from Bill Mantlo & Sal Buscema, my biggest anticipation was to see you do a Hulk vs. Abomination story. I was so disappointed when you left in mid-story & that never happenned. After pencilling the best Hulk annual EVER, I was thrilled that you'd bring your talents to the Hulk's regular series & raise his villains, like The Abomination & The Leader to their deserved heights in the Marvel Mythos. Oh well....
I will say that Sal Buscema will always be my favorite Hulk artist, but you sir, would probably have been pretty closed had you continued. At least, I still get to enjoy viewing your commissioned pieces (except when you do the modern/Moe hair cut Hulk). When you draw the "70s", shaggy haired Hulk, you're right up there with the best...Sal & John Buscema, John Romita Sr., (old-style) Michael Golden, etc... Honestly, as a kid & even now, I LOVE your Hulk from that Annual! :)
