Hulk is the strongest! Why? Because it's hard not to be when you go from strength to strength with artists Herb Trimpe and Sal Buscema! Trimpe defined the incredible Hulk in an artistic tenure stretching from 1968 to 1975. When Sal Buscema took over the reins, not only did the series gain a great talent, but one that, unbelievably, would have a tenure longer than even Trimpe's! Add to that Len Wein writing some of his greatest Hulk stories and you've got a bona fi de Marvel Masterworks! The adventures include Hulk smashing his way through the Mole Man, the Gremlin, the Shaper of Worlds, Doc Samson, the Abomination...and, of course, the never-ending military machinations of Gen. "Thunderbolt" Ross! COLLECTING: INCREDIBLE HULK (1968) 184-196, MATERIAL FROM MARVEL TREASURY EDITION (1975) 5

The always incredible Hulk's adventures continue, led by Len Wein and Sal Buscema! They kick things off with an all-out slugfest between the Hulk, Man-Thing and the Glob. While the Hulk fights for his life, romance grows between Betty Ross and Doc Samson. It's the kind of relationship that leads to a battle between green hair and green skin. In HULK #200, it's a microscopic trip - literally - into the mind of Glenn Talbot! His return to the heart of the atom brings him back to his love Jarella, but their return to Earth and tragic events drive the Hulk into a berserker rampage. Also featuring the Defenders, the Absorbing Man and a giant-size Annual where Hulk battles classic Marvel monsters! COLLECTING: INCREDIBLE HULK (1968) 197-209, ANNUAL (1968) 5
