About the character
The wise-cracking, gun-toting raccoon from the Halfworld became a surprise breakout character after the Guardians of the Galaxy films. His first appearance in Incredible Hulk #271 went from obscure Bronze Age curio to sought-after key overnight.
What is a first appearance worth?
The Incredible Hulk #271 has solid collector demand. A presentable raw copy in the UK typically attracts an offer in the low to mid three figures; high-grade or CGC-slabbed examples can push into four figures. Restored copies are worth less but still very much wanted — we buy across all grades and conditions.
