These comics stand as pillars of the industry, embodying the heroism and adventure that has resonated with fans worldwide for generations.

Iconic copies of comics featured in Goldin’s May Pop Culture Elite Auction, include:

• 1974 Incredible Hulk #181, which marks the first full appearance of the legendary character Wolverine and a momentous occasion in comic book history. The Trimpe cover on the issue portrays the "berserker rage," which would become one of Wolverine's most defining and fan-favorite characteristics.
