Tales to Astonish 1959 #62 - 7.5 - $130.00

When Hank accidentally knocks himself out after a failed lab experiment, a petty thief makes off with his costume and begins to use the Giant-Man powers to commit crimes.

The Hulk is captured in unbreakable restraints but slips through them when he turns back into Banner. Hearing that his buddy has been captured, Rick Jones leaves Captain America's side to go help the Hulk. The mysterious Leader sends the Chameleon to Gamma Base to find out what happened to an agent who didn't report back in (probably because he ended up falling down a hole in a robot suit in the previous issue). Talbot and Banner begin their less-than-friendly rivalry. The Chameleon impersonates Banner and tries to steal a gamma grenade using Betty as a hostage, but the Hulk thwarts his plans.

The Hulk breaks through a wall while someone with a gun is seen through the gap.
