Silver Age Marvel Comics The Incredible Hulk Comic Book Group (issues #106-117, partial run)
LANGUAGE UNLOCK
Glossary Roundup
Original Presentation Script
What we have here is a handsome little slice of late-Silver Age Marvel: a partial run of The Incredible Hulk, issues #106 through #117 with some gaps, presented as raw, bagged comics. These are not just old pamphlets with gamma problems—they’re period superhero artifacts from 1968 to 1969, when Marvel’s visual language was bold, kinetic, and irresistibly dramatic.
The covers shown line up well with authentic Silver Age production: correct 12-cent pricing, proper Marvel Comics Group trade dress, Comics Code stamps, and the familiar Herb Trimpe/Marie Severin-era look. Collector-wise, this is not a mega-key group, but Hulk has enduring demand, and a contiguous cluster of Silver Age issues is always more appealing than random strays.
Materially, these are standard newsprint comics with color lithographic printing, now housed in later plastic bags. They appear unrestored from the fronts, though that remains unverified because we are not shown staples, interiors, back covers, or indicia.
Condition is the big swing factor. From the visible fronts, I see moderate handling wear, some edge and corner softening, mild toning, and a few stress lines. Nothing screams disaster, but nothing shown suggests high-grade investment condition either. Without backs or interiors, completeness and page quality remain open questions.
So: authenticity looks promising, around 88%, and the conservative auction estimate for the group is roughly $250 to $700 if complete and unrestored. As modern reprints, value would collapse to decorative-reader territory. A very solid collector lot—best next step is full photos of backs, staples, and indicia. Comics Lass has spoken!

Curator Questions
Curated by Jade
Assessment:
This appears to be a genuine partial run of late-1960s Silver Age The Incredible Hulk comics rather than a single work of art. The visible covers are consistent with authentic period Marvel issues, including correct mastheads, 12¢ pricing, issue numbering, and era-appropriate Comics Code boxes. Condition appears mixed but generally in the Good to Very Good range from the visible fronts: there is noticeable edge wear, some rounding, light cover soiling/toning, waviness from bag glare or storage, and at least a few copies with small stress lines and handling wear. Because no back covers, interiors, centerfolds, staples, or indicia are shown, completeness and restoration cannot be fully evaluated. None of the pictured issues appears to be a top-tier key on the level of Hulk #181, but Silver Age Hulk always has collector interest, and a matched run from this period is marketable.

Condition:
Good to Very Good overall (raw copies, front covers only shown; visible edge wear, minor creasing, some toning; not officially graded)
Identification Score: 98%
The title, issue numbers, dates, cover prices, Marvel trade dress, and recognizable Silver Age Hulk cover imagery make identification very strong. The only small uncertainty is that the appraisal is for a grouped partial run rather than a single isolated issue.
Authenticity Score: 88%
The covers look consistent with authentic 1968-1969 Marvel comics, with period-correct logo design, color registration, issue boxes, and normal age wear rather than obvious modern facsimile characteristics. The score is not higher because no indicia, interiors, back covers, staples, or paper quality closeups are provided, so reprints, married covers, trimming, or restoration cannot be fully ruled out from photos alone.
