    This came up over at the She-Hulk forum, in reference to She-Hulk archetypes (read: ripping off the concept, even down to the emerald complexion and lustrous mane of 80's style hair – DC at least made Rampage yellow in color with a red mohawk) that have shown up in other non-Marvel comics.   8)

    I remember her from the cartoon series they used to show on USA network. As a matter of fact, I think she’s about the only reason I even watched that show.

    she is a nice character, an exellent example of eric larsen’s sense of humor.

    Larsen has made a lot of marvel/dc etc, references in his comic books, most of them where jokes and spoofs, ridiculizing (new word?) of those characters. so that shulkie pic, is an obvious "copy" of the cover of her first sensational book, as well as the last cover of the sensational series.

    Yeah, it’s obvious it’s tongue in cheek.

    Still you wouldn’t want to tell Shulkie that it’s going on. She’d come round to your house and rip up all your X-men.

    …actually on second thoughts, DO tell her.

    Perhaps, as you guys seem to know her, you can explain the origins of the character? Backstory etc?

    well, i would have to explain at least half of the Savage Dragon Universe to explain her origin, but to put it simple, she was a girl who was diying at a hospital (treminal desease or somthing like that), when a super powered guy, who could give super powers to any human being, gave her powers.
    She started as a villain, until SD kicked her teams @$$, ands she decided to be on the good side. She took her name and looks (she eventually got her hair cutted as Dragon's fin) to, well, Dragon. i haven't read the series in a while, but she was kind of in a Goverment organisation for SPB (super powered beings).

    if anybody else can add something, feel welcomed
