Sad news today. Longtime Marvel artist Herb Trimpe, who drew the first Wolverine in Hulk #181 in 1974, has passed away at age 75.
Trimpe was mostly known for his Hulk and early G.I. Joe work, but he also worked on Spidey stories in Marvel Team-Up and an arc on Spectacular Spider-Man, in which he co-created the Spot.

RIP, sir. Fantastic artist and talent. I believe I have his entire run on PPTSSM.
Never really got the credit or recognition he so justly deserved. RIP Herb.
He was a wonderful artist. Only 75 years old. Far to young.
He will be missed. Always loved his work, especially on Hulk.
