Don't hold me to this, but I think it might have been Mike Esposito.

Thanks for the answer, JB. At first glance I thought it might have been Jack Abel.

For me, there are little details that standout as your work, JB, though it is hard to tell it's your art for the most part. The lady on the sidewalk, or rather how her coat moves, the Hulk figure as he is being knocked back, particularly with the shading on the fingers, and the musculature on Hulk's forearm in the final panel are all tell-tale signs to me that it was your art.

For me, the two bystanders, the Hulk lifting the truck, the two guys in the car in the second to last panel and without a doubt, the Hulk's face in the last panel all scream JB.

I've been sending the finished pages to Chris Ryall, one by one, and today he offered this observation:"I feel like these pages you’ve done combine your style with Moebius characters in a Kirby-esque world…" Works for me!!

Sounds good!
Re: the Hulk Hostess ad, It definitely looks like JB's work to me, but he
seems to be depicting a Hulk that more resembles the then-on-model
Sal Buscema version than his own.

JB, which is more time-consuming: one of these pages that you've drawn for the consumer to color vs. the "same" page as drawn for a professional colorist to color before publication?

That's really interesting-- are there changes in the process or approach that cause it to take longer, JB?

That hadn't occurred to me! Wow, that's a pretty big difference right there.
