I was already reading FF and Inhumans by the time I found a copy of Hulk annual 1, and the characterizing of the Inhumans seemed inconsistent with what I had already read. I only read it once, and that was a long time ago. Hulk Annual 7, however, is my favorite Hulk annual ever.

I was a late bloomer and nearly 13 when I began reading/collecting comics, and that Hulk Annual had to have been among the first comics I read. The FF at the time were on the Skrull Home World (I recall those issues fondly too), and being intrigued by the Inhumans in the Hulk Annual, I went in search of earlier issues of the FF. I think that's when the collecting head of the Two-Headed Comics Bug bit me. Next thing I knew, I was after every Marvel Comic I could get my hands on, up to and including Millie the Model.

My dad wasn't crazy about my sudden interest in comics and tried to discourage me. When my uncle, who was an architectural model builder, and who at the time encouraged my budding artistic talent found out I was steering my drawing toward comic art, he was, let's call it, APPALLED! heh.

As far as single-issue, self-contained stories go, this is my favorite.

love that story line. and Signalman is featured.

I have those. Those were great days for DC! I so looked forward to the annual JLA/JSA meetings!

In the tradition of the "Times Past" issues of STARMAN comes a story of revenge, murder and betrayal set in the 1940s! The Shade is just beginning his long criminal career, but when an industrialist who is helping with the war effort is targeted for assassination, the Shade surprisingly seeks to help save the man! Who is this man, and who is the strange woman on this issue's cover?

loved this - has the golden age Vigilante and a surprising other guest star. best comic i have read in a long time.
