The Incredible Hulk #222

Apr 1978 · Marvel · 0.35 USD
“Feeding Billy”

In "Feeding Billy," the Hulk is led to a hidden cave by two children seeking help for their sick brother, Billy—a boy whose strange condition hints at something far more dangerous than illness. Written by Jim Starlin and Len Wein, with art by Starlin and Alfredo Alcala, this 1978 issue delivers a chilling twist on innocence, as the line between protector and prey begins to blur. The cover by Ernie Chan and Marie Severin captures the eerie tension of the moment.
