Life has become rather chaotic lately so this update is a little later than I had hoped but at least it is finally here. This is a follow up to the previous post that had the correct answers masked. The correct answers to the Hulk faces are listed in the article. I had no clue on Ditko (4) and drew a blank on Gil Kane (7) as well. I will have to find the Ditko image reference as I am not familiar with it from my recollection. The Kane piece is one I should have known as I have seen it before somewhere. #3 doesn’t look very Kirby-ish to me but I was familiar with the image so I was able to guess correctly.

The only two times I can remember Ditko drawing Hulk were way back in Incredible Hulk #6 and Incredible Hulk Annual #9. I’m pretty sure this image is from #6. The Gil Kane art was from a run in Tales to Astonish, but the exact issue numbers elude me just now (I want to say somewhere between #80 something to 90 something).
I was thinking the same thing Jeff. I assume the Ditko is from the first 6 run and was thinking the same about the Kane reference being from the middle of the TOS run. I will have to try and find the full reference for each piece and add to the post.
Steve Ditko drew a few issues of Tales to Astonish (including the first appearance of the Leader). Comicvine has them posted:

Thanks for the reference!
I will start – first reference added – #12 Mike Mignola Hulk 307 cover
Feel free to provide additional references – 50 gamma points for each correct reference (with image)
Another reference added – John Byrne. Feel free to add your own with a link to the reference.
Other than those you posted so far, the obvious three to me were: 1 = Incredible Hulk #1 cover, 2 = Incredible Hulk #102 cover, and 14 = Incredible Hulk #350 cover (sorry, no images)
I also think #9 is from the cover to Incredible Hulk #222,
Nice work Jeff – 200 gamma points!
Strangely I’ve tried and tried to post answers but they’re just not showing up. Check the Hulk MB–all the answers and image links are there.

GREAT job Mark – 450 gamma points!
The 200 cover has some subtle differences – I wonder if this is just a degraded image.
Updated post with full reference information.
Good stuff!
