Another of the later period Power reissues, the subtitle "At Bay" was dropped entirely with some new(?) art created for the sleeve. Does anyone actually have one of these?
I remember seeing some of these downsized reissues at retail at K-Mart in 1983 or '84. I don't think I have any in my collection, so I don't know how badly the artwork suffered in being moved around and reconfigured for the reduced size. I have always assumed it wasn't a pretty translation.
Just found a SEALED copy of the "Untitled" LP on eBay (with Black Chasm) for under 10 bucks. Was nice to get it again and YES I opened it. It did not come with a paper sleeve, just a record inside the jacket. Kind of odd but it was in excellent shape. Was good to hear these stories again this was my favorite Hulk record because it was so much like the TV show.

I've never seen these smaller, more square "storybook" style versions. Looks like the artwork is just a reconfiguration of this version:
