Background on Tales to Astonish, the grade and what drives the price.
Characters
The Hulk first appeared in The Incredible Hulk #1, cover-dated May 1962, created by Stan Lee and Jack Kirby. In this first issue the Hulk is grey, not green — the colour was changed from issue #2 because the grey printed inconsistently. The issue also introduces Bruce Banner, Rick Jones, General Thaddeus “Thunderbolt” Ross and Betty Ross. The original series was cancelled after six issues.
