About a year ago, I had written extensively on the old Rampaging Hulk Magazine of the 1970's. (You can check out the On Television Classics article and read it for yourself) Rampaging Hulk was another member of a long line of failed Marvel Magazines in the 1970's. Now, when I say failed, I don't mean these were poorly written magazines. In fact, the magazines were general quite excellent. They were also way ahead of their time as they sought to attract an older audience. The Rampaging Hulk magazine featured mature themes and was closer to the character driven television program as opposed to the more traditional superhero oriented comic books. The magazine lasted a very short period of time in the late 1970's and had become all but forgotten. With the upcoming Hulk film being released Marvel mined their back issues and will be publishing The Essential Rampaging Hulk in a low cost, black and white format. I, for one, will be picking it up as soon as I can.
