Description

Nostalgia wins again....I really have minimal interest in the Hulk as a character but this is the image I most associate with him. And it's not even from the front cover (which I don't give a whit about)! Saw it hundreds of times as a kid without knowing who the artist was. This one has gone through all the rigors associated with production - i.e. scissors and glue.

Production art in all its glory, with all those fabulous marks and stains that only add to its character. Plus an "incredible" (sorry) and iconic image to match. Truly a fabulous piece! Congratulations!

Suat, your near-apologetic language for giving in to your "worst" nostalgic instincts makes me smile almost as much as the art itself.

Today I am saddened, hearing the news of Herb Trimpe's passing. I chose this particular image, in leaving my respects, on account of this being my favorite piece ever done by the legendary artist. I too grew up with a copy of this Marvel Treasury Edition. And while John Romita Sr. gave us all a wonderful rendition of "The Hulk" on the front cover, it was Herb Trimpe's classic transformation of Bruce Banner into The Hulk, on back of this book, which left my younger eyes in endless awe. And yes, I still own my original copy of this poor worn out book to this very day. As with others such as Jack Kirby, John Buscema, and Gil Kane, I'm sad to of missed out on meeting this incredible talent. Everyone I know have told me what a good, giving, and gracious soul he was. And he always went the extra mile for his fans. Maybe we'll get to meet him in Heaven someday. Until then, God Bless him and his family. May he R.I.P.
