…I’m really glad to see this world given life in the Marvel Universe. It also possibly opens an potential dynamic for the character going forward. Being a Hulk means that Jennifer Walters fears no physical threat, but succeeding at the law requires a completely separate set of skills with no real overlap. I think Soule will have a lot of fun sketching out the dichotomy if given the chance.
Keen observations there, Zimbra.
If the past couple She Hulk series are any indication, Soule will build up some critical respect and get promoted to bigger and better things. His team will get replaced by one promising “superhero action” and “superhero art”, and will succeed at driving away the audience drawn to the quirkier stories. Then the cancellation will hit and few will be left paying any attention.
I hadn’t thought of that. I can understand (as opposed to appreciate) that Soule/Pulido/Wimberly’s execution is not a common She-Hulk’s fan cup of tea, but the key to creative failure is trying to please everybody. That, and repeating what’s come before out of misguided nostalgia—or fear.
It’s a nice art style, dont get me wrong. But it doesn’t really kinda feel or fit the series. Im referencing more so to the style from like the first 4 issues. While the ones for these last few haven’t been too bad…it seems like this current style feels a bit more in line with something you could see like on… Swamp Thing…or a more macabre type story.
Thanks for elaborating, B.K.
I’m fine with her not being portrayed in the manner we view her, cause it’s a rarity, and its a story involving her as the primary character, so we gotta take what we can get. I did love the Doom story though. And I am loving what I am reading.
[spoiler]The Blue File storyline just fizzled out (with Issue #6)! I’m surprised.[/spoiler]
