#JackedKirby - Kirby’s Hulk... Back From The Dead!!! 💥💥💥 The Incredible Hulk’s solo series from 1962 is one of the rare missteps from the early years at Marvel when Jack, Stan, Ditko and the crew were banging out hit after hit. Canceled after only 6 issues, despite pencils from both Kirby and Ditko, the book never quite found its footing... you can even say the same for the character himself. An original member of the Avengers, Hulk was also written out of the book by Issue 4 to make way for Cap... but a few years later they would give the big green Machine another go inside the anthology pages of Tales To Astonish!!! 💥💥💥 Starting with Issue 60 Hulk would be featured in the monthly anthology alongside another character in a sort of half-length story. This way he didn’t have to carry a whole series, it was only one 13 page feature a month. Steve Ditko And Stan Lee worked on the character at first, but starting with #Issue68 (published in June of 1965) we see his original artist brought back... the King and Hulk were reunited again!!! 💥💥💥 Pic 1 of this post features the cover, of which Kirby penciled the BOTTOM HALF only (Bob Powell did the top) featuring quite a different looking Kirby Hulk then before. He had more of a human shaped face, instead of the Frankenstein type monster face Kirby was known to draw. 💥💥💥 Pic 2 and 3 feature interior images of the Hulk from the story, also putting forth a newer look for a Kirby designed Hulk... I especially like the transformation three panel set (pic 2) that shows the gradual transformation of the Hulk back to Banner... The King was back with his monster and he would have a nice 19 issue run on Tales To Astonish with the character for ole times sake!!! 💥💥💥 #JackKirby #Kirby #KingKirby #Hulk #TheIncredibleHulk #TalesToAstonish #BobPowell #SteveDitko #StanLee #Comic #Comics #ComicBook #ComicBooks #60sComics #ComicsOfThe60s #igcomiccommunity #igcomicfamily #ComicsOfIG #ComicsOfInstagram https://www.instagram.com/p/BsyXAtHBZnR/?utm_source=ig_tumblr_share&igshid=nmpakqiusfo7
