Incredible Hulk (1962) #349 – Mr. Fixit vs. Spider-Man!
Incredible Hulk (1962) #349 (November 1988), written by Peter David with pencils by Jeff Purves and inks by Mike Gustovich, is a dynamic Copper Age issue. The Hulk, in his grey “Mr. Fixit” persona—a cunning Las Vegas enforcer—clashes with Spider-Man due to a chaotic “communication breakdown.” The misunderstanding sparks a brutal showdown between the two heroes, highlighting Mr. Fixit’s brute strength and limited diplomacy against Spidey’s agility and wit. Peter David’s acclaimed run infuses the action with humor and character depth, exploring the Hulk’s darker alter ego. Jeff Purves’ bold art captures the gritty Vegas setting and intense battle, making this a standout in David’s Hulk saga.
Highlights
  • Mr. Fixit’s gritty clash with Spider-Man over a misunderstanding.
  • Exploration of the Hulk’s cunning grey “Joe Fixit” persona.
  • Peter David’s blend of action, humor, and character insight.
  • Jeff Purves’ dynamic, Vegas-fueled artwork.
  • Key issue in the Copper Age Hulk run.
Value & Trends
  • Current: $5–$15 (VG/FN), $20–$40 (VF), $50–$80 (NM) on eBay/MyComicShop, with CGC 9.8 copies fetching $100–$150 due to David’s run and the Mr. Fixit-Spider-Man crossover. Newsstand editions may see a slight premium for scarcity.
  • Trends: Hulk’s popularity, Godzilla vs. Hulk #1 (2025), and Spider-Man 4 (2026) hype could drive 15–20% price hikes in 6–12 months. High-grade copies may hit $100–$200 in 2–3 years if Mr. Fixit or Spider-Man crossovers gain MCU/SSU focus (e.g., Avengers: Secret Wars, 2027). Comic-Con 2025 news could boost demand.
  • Market: Copper Age Hulk issues with Peter David’s writing, Mr. Fixit’s fan-favorite arc, and Spider-Man crossovers are highly sought after, especially in NM or slabbed grades.
Key Characters
  • Hulk (Mr. Fixit/Joe Fixit): Grey, cunning enforcer.
  • Spider-Man (Peter Parker): Agile hero in a misunderstanding.
Why Buy?
This issue’s Mr. Fixit-Spider-Man brawl, David’s sharp storytelling, and Purves’ vibrant art make it a Copper Age gem. The grey Hulk’s unique persona and crossover appeal thrill Hulk and Spidey fans. Grab it in NM condition before Hulk’s cinematic surge or Mr. Fixit’s revival spikes prices!
