Tales to Astonish 1959 #84 - reader copy - $13.00

Namor has lost his memory and the leader of the Secret Empire convinces him to track down and kill the Hulk. As Namor rushes around New York looking for the jade giant, he is zapped by a ray from Krang which only succeeds in restoring his memory.

Finding gamma base deserted and everybody gone, the Hulk heads to New York City to try and find his old friends in the Avengers but finds himself attacked once again by city police. Rick, hearing that the Hulk is in the Big Apple, gets a job driving a car to New York for a mysterious stranger who tells him to be sure not to look in the trunk.

• Rampage in the City! - Jerry Grandenetti pencil credit added by Mark Evanier (via the GCD Errors list, August 2009), who credits him with about half of the story. Nick Caputo adds that Bill Everett may have penciled and inked most of the first two pages, with Grandenetti doing the rest (over Kirby layouts?) with the Hulk and Rick Jones apparently inked by Everett throughout the story to maintain consistency. Other inkers likely include Mike Esposito, Sol Brodsky and John Tartaglione. Panels 1-2 on page 5 are reproduced from Sub-Mariner story. Previous indexer credited Paul Reinman and John Romita with inks.
