The Incredible Hulk and the Thing: The Big Change
Publication: New York: Marvel Entertainment Group, 1987. First Edition.
Notes: Part of the Marvel Graphic Novel series, a stand-alone story featuring two Marvel superheroes who team up to save the universe from aliens. In a bizarre subplot, Hulk wears an octopus, or an octopus-like creature, on his head, giving him something of the appearance of a monster out of H. P. Lovecraft's Cthulhu mythos (about the time he did this graphic novel, Wrightson was working on concept drawings for an unproduced film based on Lovecraft's The Shadow Over Innsmouth, so tentacles may have been on his mind).
If I'm being honest, this seems like uninspired corporate hack work. Even so, Wrightson was one of the great comic book artists and there are some pages that echo his finer drawings.
64 pages.
Edition + Condition: First edition (no indication of later printings). A near fine copy with light surface scuffing, signed by both Wrightson and Starlin. The book is common; doubled signed copies are hard to find.
