Is a hulk 181 missing mvs worth buying? 0

Is a hulk 181 missing the mvs in high grade, say 6.0 or higher, worth owning?  What if its signed by stan lee or herb trimpe?

Can you get it for a dollar? Then sure! Is it going to set you back ten grand? Then no.

No but most graded missing the mvs are $800 and up.  So is a 5.0 signed by herb trimpe worth a $1000?

I've never lost money on any copy. I've only purchased ones with stamps...but the book cannot be beat.

Depends on why you're buying it. For resale? I wouldn't touch a signed copy, let alone one missing the stamp. For yourself? Well, that's a personal decision.

Incredible Hulk 181, whether you're a fan or not, is the BA's AF 15. Older collector's remember when AF 15 was not out of reach, and you could actually "stumble" across a raw copy for sale. Not so, today.  IH 181 is no doubt headed in that direction (if it's not there already.)
