    That’s a nice recap.
    I just disagree with the Dan Slott period. Stories were not that great, and Bobillo’s art was just terrible, sorry to highlight that again.
    But for most of her appearances, She-Hulk was generally well drawn. Paul Pelletier’s version still stays my all-time favorite.

    Dan Slott I was okay with,..it was after Charles Souble took over for the rest of the comic book run that I checked out
    Plus the artwork was annoying sometimes to boot

    Just read the comic today boys.

    Talk about massive cock tease! (Or vag tease for the ladies.)

    A whole lot of nothing happens in the first issue. It just establishes that Jen is trying to acclimate back to a normal life but is struggling to do so. Most of the comic is Jen in her human form, going to her job, talking to a client, then going home. Really boring stuff.

    However, at the very F-@$ing end, is when she starts to hulk out. Her spine is jutting out of the back of her shirt, her legs swell with muscle and her boots split open, her biceps shred open her sleeves, and then she shrinks back.

    It’s hot and it’s well done. But I wish the issue had more substance to this. Is 22 pages the going rate for Marvel comics these days? I haven’t collected a comic in years and I must say I’m sorely disappointed by the lack of content in issue one. I’m reminded why I stopped collecting comics in the first place.

    However, I will say the artwork was awesome and when her muscles do start bulging out they look great. There’s definitely a promise of FMG in this comic series, without a doubt.

    She-HULK’s never had the same problems as Bruce. From how I understand it, gamma irradiation in the MU seems to unlock aspects of a person’s subconscious, if it doesn’t kill them. Bruce is fucked in the head from his dad’s abuse, and developed super powered DID, but all other gamma heroes and villains tend to get a single alt form, or just a single form period. Leader always wanted to be as smart and beloved as his brother and so became super intelligent, Abomination wanted to be more like Banner and became a large monster, but kept all his faculties, and Jenn suffered from self confidence issues her whole life, and became a strong and beautiful amazon. Most non-Bruce gamma mutates tend to remain in a single form after exposure, barring the occasional exposure to massive gamma radiation or something again. That seems to force new and unpredictable mutations in them

    All right ladies and gents, just read Issue #2.

    Boy am I getting annoyed. This time there is no implied Hulk out, no clothes ripping, no She-Hulk, NO NOTHING! The gist of it is… Jen is working her job as normal, keeping calm, keeping cool. Some kids remind her of Bruce and how he’s dead, and then she gets angry and resists a hulkout back in her office.

    Okay, first of all. I was really annoyed that she went back to her office of all places to go “keep her cool.” Let me ask you folks something. If you’re pissed off and you need to calm down, are you going to do it at your f-ing office? NO! That’s the place where I get the MOST aggravation. It became very clear that her going to the office was a contrived excuse to get her to talk to her new office assistant who offers an ear if she needs to talk about her problems.

    But let’s ignore that. It seems the crux of this comic series is going to revolve around Jen trying to prevent a tenant from getting evicted. There’s hints that the tenant is being protected by some evil force, great, sure, comics, I get it.

    However, this series is moving way too slow. You remember how in the first Hulk movie we didn’t see the Hulk into an hour in? Yeah, this is the same problem with this series. It’d be one thing if there was something compelling moving the plot forward, but instead it seems that the author is relying on you hoping to see Jen hulk out so that you continue reading on.

    To wrap it up, so far the 1st two issues are off to a bad start. The comic is simply, the ordinary life of Jennifer Walters without any real plot to make you care to go forward.

    If you wanted to skip issue 2, I don’t blame you and as for Issue 1? Probably better off just seeing a screenshot of her semi transformation panel. Because that’s all you’re going to get.

    This series better start picking up some steam or I’m going to drop it like a bad habit.

    Sounds lame:{ It does suck when the hero spends a whole story or more in his or her civilian identity. Sucks even more that that’s a thing.

    Here;s hoping Issue 3 delivers on this:
