Description

When I was in Jr. High I walked into a liquor store and picked up this issue of Rampaging Hulk and was in awe of this cover. I said to my brother "I am going to own this piece of art someday". As fate would have it the 1st SDCC I went to in 1980 an art dealer had this piece and I bought it for $300. I have no idea where or how I got that much $ as a teenager but it was the 1st major piece of art I have ever purchased. Thus was born my art collecting! Thank you Jim Starlin for creating this piece and this obsession.
I have been told that this is Starlin's favorite cover from this run, but not from Starlin himself. I can see why.
