⚠ AI-Estimated / Approximate Condition Profile

Cover shows strong gloss and vibrant colors with sharp corners and no visible creasing or spine stress. There is a small ink/print flaw or tiny fold near the top right of the logo area, and faint reflections from the protective sleeve obscure some fine detail. No major edge chipping, color breaks, or stains are visible; the book is in a protective sleeve which limits full assessment. Interior and back cover were not assessed.

// Archive commentary

The Incredible Hulk #350 (December 1988) arrived at a pivotal point in Peter David's celebrated run on the title, as artist Jeff Purves stepped in following Todd McFarlane's departure from the book. David's scripting had already begun reshaping Bruce Banner's psychology and the Hulk's multiple personas into one of the most acclaimed character studies of the era, and this issue continues that ongoing narrative rather than introducing a new character or origin point.

Market data for the issue reflects a well-populated, actively traded Copper Age title rather than a speculative key. With 115 census copies recorded in CGC Universal grading and a healthy spread of sales through 9.8, values climb steeply only at the very top of the grading curve, where a handful of pristine copies command a meaningful premium over the mid-grade norm. Demand is driven primarily by ongoing collector interest in the David/Purves Hulk stretch and by set-builders completing full runs of the acclaimed late-1980s series rather than by any first-appearance or landmark-cover premium.

This is a book that trades steadily but modestly: raw copies in low and mid grade carry values consistent with common bulk late-Copper-Age Marvel material, while certified 9.8 copies see outsized demand from run collectors and registry participants chasing top-census status. It suits buyers assembling complete Peter David Hulk runs or filling out Copper Age Marvel boxes, rather than key-issue investors.
