Incredible Hulk #34 2002

Incredible Hulk #34, published by Marvel in January 2002, launches Bruce Jones' acclaimed run. Titled "The Morning After," the story finds Bruce Banner as a fugitive, grappling with the Hulk's implication in a terrible act. While the Hulk remains largely unseen, Banner confronts his inner demons and attempts to guide a troubled youth named Jerome away from a gang. This issue is notable for collectors as it features the first appearance of Jerome and boasts a cover that pays homage to Jim Steranko's iconic Hulk King-Size Special #1.
