The Incredible Hulk #233

In "…At the Bottom of the Bay!", the Hulk races through the depths of San Francisco Bay in a relentless pursuit of Curtiss Jackson, rescuing Fred Sloan along the way before facing off against SHIELD’s Marvel Man—only to send the super-agent sprawling with a single punch. Written by Roger Stern and brought to life by Sal Buscema’s dynamic art, Chic Stone’s inks, Françoise Mouly’s colors, and Tom Orzechowski’s lettering, this 1979 issue captures the Hulk at his most furious and focused. Al Milgrom’s cover perfectly encapsulates the chaos, with the Hulk mid-lunge and Marvel Man reeling.
