Incredible Hulk (1962) #332 – Mark Jewelers Variant (1987, Marvel Comics)
Incredible Hulk (1962) #332 (June 1987), written by Peter David with pencils by Todd McFarlane and inks by Fred Fredericks, is a dramatic Copper Age issue, presented here as the Mark Jewelers variant, featuring a jewelry ad insert distributed primarily to military bases. As a Hulkbuster unit prepares to deliver a fatal blow to Rick Jones, a mysterious figure intervenes to save him, escalating the tension in this action-packed story. Peter David’s acclaimed run deepens the Hulk’s complex dynamics with Rick and the ongoing gamma-fueled conflicts, blending high-stakes drama with emotional stakes. Todd McFarlane’s early, kinetic art, pre-Spider-Man fame, brings the Hulkbuster clash and rescue to vivid life, making this a key issue in David’s Hulk saga. The Mark Jewelers variant adds collectible rarity due to its limited distribution.
