Oklahoma comic-book fans can meet the artist of the first appearance of Wolverine at the Tulsa Comic Con, Saturday and Sunday.

Herb Trimpe, who drew “The Incredible Hulk” for eight years, introduced Wolverine as a foe for the Hulk in “Incredible Hulk” No. 181. (Wolverine also appeared in the final panel of “Incredible Hulk” No. 180, drawn by Trimpe.)

Trimpe joins several other guests at the Tulsa Comic Con, which is Saturday and Sunday, at the Econo Lodge at 11620 E Skelly Drive in Tulsa.

“Ghost Rider” co-creator Gary Friedrich also is scheduled to be at the convention.  He wrote titles for Marvel Comics including “Incredible Hulk,” “Daredevil” and “Captain
America.”

Also appearing at the convention is Rich Buckler, who has drawn issues of comic books including “All-Star Squadron,” “Black Panther,” “War of the Worlds,” “Battlestar Galactica,” “Justice League,” “Teen Titans,” “X-Men,” “Superman,” “Batman,” “Detective Comics” and “Wonder Woman.”  He co-created “Deathlok the Demolisher” in the pages of “Astonishing Tales” with writer Doug Moench. He is perhaps best known for his 1970s run on “Fantastic Four.”

Other guests include: RA Jones, Steve Erwin, Michael Vance, Jeremy Haun, John Wooley, Rob Davis and Selina Rosen.
