<<<love seeing the comparison between the current Hulk and the original (and best version for me)>>>


That's the page I own. I'm looking at it right now, framed on the wall of my home office.

I just picked up the trade paperback, and I am enjoying these issues all over again.

I never read this ! Argh ! There is a TPB somewhere, no ?

Yes -- it's called Incredible Hulk Visionaries: John Byrne.  It just came out a few weeks ago.  This is what it looks like:

Damn, Glenn, that's a sweet page to have...isn't this the first comic page to acknowledge that the Hulk was Gray at first?

I believe so--though there may have been an issue very late in the Bill Mantlo run that shows flashback images from the earliest Hulk stories and depicts him with gray skin in at least one of those shots.

Glenn, that's awesome that you own that page. Especially knowing that was the direction the Hulk was going if JB had been able to stay on...ah, what might have been.

Doc Sampson's reaction didn't bother me as much as it did others...the Hulk Busters did attack him first after all.

This was it!! This was the issue that officially installed into continuity that the Hulk had been grey when he first appeared. Prior to this, I believe all re-tellings of the origin showed him as green right from the start pretending like the grey coloring in issue #1 never happened.

JB, do you ever regret starting that ball rolling?
