*Marvel: Our ‘Hulkinued’ feature, um, hulkinues, this week starring the debut of the Abomination in Tales To Astonish #90 & #91 from the Good Doctor Collection. These are great packages art-wise. You get Subby stories illustrated by his creator Bill Everett, and Hulk stories by Gil Kane, both giants in the field; this was still in the day when Stan Lee wrote everything, of course.

PICTURED: TALES TO ASTONISH
#90 FN+ £95 1st Abomination. Very rich cover colour, supple off-white pages and firm, tight staples. There is a minimum of edge wear (mainly at top edge), a couple of soft dinks at top and bottom of spine (which are barely noticeable and do not break colour) and a very soft crease along the upper right edge (also non-colour breaking). This copy presents very well and looks nicer than the grade we’ve assigned.
#91 VG+ £50 1st Abomination cover. Glossy, flat copy with minor edge and handling wear. Firm staples; off-white to cream pages.
