Off-White to White pgs; Universal holder; Unrestored. Marvel Value Stamp #54 - Shanna the She-Devil. Ab for Defenders #17. Light spine stress, barely breaks color. Very light small edge crease top back cover, does not break color.
1st full Wolverine app; Marvel Value Stamp #54 (Shanna); Herb Trimpe cover & art; COMIC BOOK IMPACT rating of 10 (CBI)This issue marks Wolverine’s first full appearance as the breakout character of Marvel's Bronze Age—as seen when a copy of Incredible Hulk #181 became the first Bronze Age book to break the $100,000 sales mark. Wolverine would go on to become of the biggest pop-culture icons of the past fifty years, with the character reviving the X-Men title as he joined the mutant super team in the ’70s. The ensuing decades have seen Wolverine becoming one of Marvel's most potent weapons in creating hot spin-off titles and guest turns. Wolverine also continues to rule the cinemas, with fans already buzzing over Hugh Jackman’s hotly anticipated return to the character in 2024’s Deadpool 3.
This copy of Hulk #181 earned an amazing 9.6 from CBCS, with off-white to white pages. This is essentially the Action #1 of the Bronze Age, and a stunning copy to be sure. The cover, which presents the first full appearance of Wolverine, facing off against Hulk and Wendigo, is so incredibly crisp, all of the colors truly pop. From the red background to the white text, to Wolverine's classic yellow and blue uniform, and let’s not forget the wonderful hues of The Hulk's emerald skin. This copy is as fresh and vibrant as most newly published books sitting on comic book store shelves today. Wolverine is one of the most well-known comic book characters of the last 50 years, as the beloved antihero continues to appear in countless movies, TV shows, video games, comics, toys, and other media, new generations of fans are constantly drawn to Incredible Hulk #181. This is a beautiful copy of one of the most sought-after and readily available comics of all time.
