Herb Trimpe is best known for his eight year run on the Incredible Hulk for Marvel Comics, and his introduction in Hulk numbers 180 and 181, to the popular character, Wolverine. In addition, Trimpe is known for his contributions to several titles featuring licensed characters, including Transformers, Godzilla, and G.I. Joe, as well as the G.I. Joe spin-off, Special Missions. All these characters have been featured in major motion pictures. Among less prominent titles drawn by Trimpe are the Defenders, War is Hell, Guardians of the Galaxy, Indiana Jones, and the Fantastic Four Unlimited, a quarterly publication that became Trimpe’s final effort at Marvel. Recently, Trimpe has done G.I. Joe covers for IDW publishing, and continues to do extensive commission work both at home, and, as a guest at comic book conventions.
