ComicLink has added Incredible Hulk #181 CGC 9.8 to its Summer Featured Auction. “This is a timely addition to our next auction as this month marks the 50th anniversary of the release of this now historic first full appearance of Wolverine, which hit newsstands in July of 1974,” ComicLink founder and Managing Director Josh Nathanson said. “Of course, this is also a huge week for everyone’s favorite Canadian mutant as it sees the long-awaited release of the huge movie, Deadpool and Wolverine! If you are at the San Diego Comic-Con this weekend, be sure to stop by booth #1100 to say hello and drop off any consignments you would like to include in the Summer Featured Auction or other upcoming ComicLink auctions.”

The auction starts August 15, 2024, and items consigned soon can be included in their pre-auction promotions.
