I'm just kinda pissed that Ian Churchill is doing the art in #14. I've never really been fond of his art.

Oh, sure - you can say of pretty much all big characters like Batman, Superman, The Hulk etc. have had that. It's pretty much inevitable given the time the characters have been around. The problem She-Hulk has is, there isn't anything that can be seen as... a definitive She-Hulk. With the Hulk, most people would quickly turn to the "Hulk smash" before they went into the Green Scar, Mr. Fixit, Professor etc. Those are of course, aspects - but there's an iconic quality to the aforementioned. I mean, we've had a whole mess of Batmans but people will probably always hold up the brooding Dark Knight Bob Kane type interpretation.

She-Hulk just doesn't have that. There's no quintessential She-Hulk costume or character... Although, I suppose we've moved closer to that of late... With the purple and white unitard and She-Hulk being a bad ass brawler... with quipping!

And Domino... well, the MYSTERY OF THE SHE-RULK! Will presumably run for a while and do what the original issues with Rulk did and introduce a number of potential suspects. I hope that Loeb manages to do a better job a second time round... scant hope.

And I hope that Barbara Fletcher knocks on my door and announce her undying love for me. But it ain't gonna happen Wink

Using my patented bullshit translator - Loeb is saying something along the lines of "I haven't got a clue where this story is going, I'll be throwing in a lot of twists which are at best random and often nonsensical - not to mention that no one is going to bother checking continuity, so expect plot aspects to be raised and dropped arbitrarily. Red She-Hulk is just going to be cheese cake for the sake of it - any chance at character development is pretty small."

Ed McGuinness is one of the better artists in the game right now, IMO.

My main problem with Jeph Loeb is Ultimatum, which basically trashed ten years of stories in a bloodthirsty desire to kill as many people as possible off in five issues. Granted, the Ultimate Universe needed rebooting as all but Ultimate Spider-Man wasn't doing so hot quality or sales-wise, but what Loeb did was break it beyond repair.

. . .

At least Brian Michael Bendis will still be writing Ultimate Spidey so there'll be something readable out of THAT reboot.

I'd say there's a pretty high probability that there will be a snippet of dialog similar to:

Rulk: You?

She Rulk: Surprised to see me?

Rulk: It messes up all our planning for you to show up! It may even provide an obscure clue to my identity, but oh well. Think I'll beat up... oh I don't know, the Thing.

The possibility that it may be Domino is really really exciting for me, I can't quite say why. Maybe it would be the brains/brawn dynamic, or that one of Liefield's "characters" is going to be bastardized long after her shelf date. Or maybe that the Marvel U can stand to have a few more TF'ing heroines, and that if done properly She Rulk could be a better compliment to She Hulk that Titania. One can only hope.

When I first saw the pictures of the red She-Hulk, I immediately thought of Domino. I haven't followed any Marvel title with any regularity for some time now, but something about the (bits of) costume and the gun makes it seem to fit. Would it make any sense for Domino to become a red behemoth? Probably not, but how the hell should I know? I'm interested in what Marvel is doing with Shulkie, though, with the introduction of Lyra and the new "wanna see my impression of a fire truck?" Shulk. I'm admittedly ignorant as to what goes on behind the scenes in the Marvel studios, but I can't see it as a bad thing that we now have an opportunity to find three She-Hulks where there used to be only one. Is there any way that such an outcome could really all bad?
