This Star Wars #1 was a Secret Santa gift I got in the mid-2000s from the View Askew message board. It was in my childhood bedroom at my parents' house, exposed for two decades before I bagged and boarded it. I apologize to any future wife I may have; this will be on my wall until the day I die.  This World of Warcraft con exclusive was allegedly an SDCC exclusive and is the first appearance of the game in a comic. This was a dollar bin find in a warehouse that buys from estate sales etc..  Unfortunately, there is this crease on the back that I guess CBCS pressing couldn't get flattened  I am somewhat surprised that the labels don't list writers.. and on Star Wars #1 no cover artist. Interesting. I wonder what decides that? |

| Original Story: The original issue features the conclusion of the "Professor Hulk" storyline, where the psychic amalgamation of Bruce Banner, the original Hulk, and the Grey Hulk is depicted. The story's title is "Honey I Shrunk the Hulk". January 1991 Reprint: This is the most prominent reprint and a very sought-after comic. It features new cover art with a gamma explosion and was released alongside issue #425. 1994 Third Print: This version is less common and has garnered attention from collectors for its specific details, such as the cover art, price, and copyright date. Other Reprints: The issue has been included in various trade paperbacks and collections, including The Incredible Hulk: Beauty and the Behemoth TPB Vol 1, Hulk Visionaries: Peter David Vol 1, and others. Other Editions: There is also a black-and-white edition printed in Finland around 1995, which is considered particularly rare by some collectors. |

| First, second, third, and so on printing are the magic words that turn a reprint into something special. | ||
