    The thing is that people tend to forget is that generally ther is FMG in a were-TF.

    Just a particular point I'd like to make, since its so commonly misconstrued, so often on the forums, but whenever I see the word "were-" in reference to the topic of female anthropomorphic transformations, i.e. a were-woman, one should keep in mind that its Old English for "man" and has absolutely nothing to do with transformation process itself.

    From the American Heritage Dictionary:

    Old English werewulf : wer, man; + wulf, wolf;

    In otherwords, if you're misusing it in that manner, "man-woman", you're actually describing a transgender transformation.

    They've been jumping universes so this is another version of Jennifer.

    I suggested something similar on the She-Hulk forum – i.e. that she's a sub-alt of the accountant alt-She-Hulk previously portrayed, but the patrons there shot it down stating that this Jen is the same Jen, its just that the writer didn't check his continuity facts, first.  😎

    Of course, a number of them are also ardent anti-femuscular physique format She-Hulk fans, so go figure.  😉

    Anyone know if she is still visiting the various on-line communities?

    And you're welcome – I might add, I also have the address (now defunct) for the GTS Shrine (not my favorate place to go, but cmb's site was very popular in its day).  Don't know how much the Internet Wayback Machine might have saved of the place, tho.

    Don't know if she's still around, even in a lurking mode (as has been the case with GTS Kate), but the person who might know, maybe, would be Solomon – from what Hi-Standard once told me the two of them were a friendly pair on-line.

    BTW – One of the other places I'm still trying to track down an address for is the URL that Wiz ZZZ supplied several years ago on his forums for an omnibus archived web page copy of his very first forum.  It had a number of stories posted there (artwork, too) that seemingly has now been long lost to us all.  So, if anyone does have it, don't be shy and please do post it here.

    A general writing board – a most excellent addition, Mighty Lingster. (Praise him with mighty praise!)

    Seriously, tho – I know its a sub-genre interest of the genre, but what about Growing Male and Female Couples stories?

    Something similar (meaning a hyper-muscular transformation) also happened to her towards the end of the Sensational series, in the story line To Live and Die in LA.  Tho she didn't turn gray, her body morphed in size until she was nearly as Neanderthalishly built up as her cousin, Bruce – who was at the time trying to restrain her out of control behavior.   😎

    I can see her just fine, but then I'm the Immortal One . . .  😎

    By the looks of file name, at a guess I'd say her first name is Christina.   😉

    But for you mere Mortals, maybe this link will help?

    One of my more favorate SH vs T slugfests would have to be the one she had in Solo Avengers #14 – while Jen is presenting her case before the Supreme Court her old sparing parter Titania can't resist but interupting the proceedings just outside the building.  More then once Jen is forced to deal with her and each time thinking she's put her down, only to have to repeat the process once again.

    (As the writer of the piece, Chris Claremont couldn't help but include poking fun at the Superman mythos with her clothing changing scenes in a phone booth.)

    I think Francesca Petitjean may actually be the FBB you're thinking of who slid to porn.  They look a little similar, though I think Frederique is far more gorgeous.  Also nice to see a gal not giving in to implants and still have a great looking chest.

    You're probably right, I won't argue the point.  That's why when I'm not 100% certain I normal couch the info in the terms of something like: "If I'm not mistaken" or "**I think**" – to forwarn the reader that I'm not positive if I'm remembering it correctly.   😎

    I'm only the Immortal One, it doesn't mean I'm perfect . . . tho, I'm working on it. 😉

    Doesn't matter if it's 1%, 10%, or 50%; the fact of the matter is that virtually 0% are buying it, and it'll vanish within the next year. It's irrelevant to me because I stopped buying comics in 1990, but the point of my post is that She-Hulk doesn't do anything differently than a million other comics just like it. The run a decade and a half ago was a great concept; breaking the fourth wall, focusing on blatant comic satire. The newer releases just don't seem to know what they want to be, and in the end just comes out seeming more confused than anything else. It's a cyclic Ouroboros that pops up every so many years, and every time, the series goes through so many artist changes because nobody seems to be buying into the whole T&A aspect of it, so they have to find the 'right' artist to portray the 'right' T&A that'll draw the fans. But the point is that She-Hulk fans see her more as a character than just a roving titrack, and out of all I've read of the series in its incarnations over the last 20 years, the Byrne series of the early nineties was the best of the lot. She-Hulk is ineffably John Byrne's character, and she really shouldn't be in anyone else's hands than his…nobody else at Marvel gets it right.

    You misunderstand; I don't necessarily think that Marvel should pander to the muscleheads (to coin a generic term), and my post history on various aspects of this will show that this exactly opposite to my own line of thinking. But the plain truth is that She-Hulk is constantly mistargeted in terms of writing and concept, and nobody seems to know exactly what she's supposed to be doing, or where the series is supposed to go. They need to put Byrne back on her title, or relegate her to supporting character status.

    On the other hand, if they DID decide to have the series appeal to muscleheads, it'd have far more focus than it appears to have now. Better to have 1% of guaranteed sales rather than try to be everything to everyone and end up not doing any of it right. I mean, just who ARE they aiming this series at, anyhow?

    Such cynicism, but unfortunately you're right.  The truth is that she (and her alt-counterpart, but non-Jen Walter fan-fiction characters) have been far better treated with stories of depth and careful consideration by a number of the fan-fiction authors (i.e. notably Terry19d) on-line then she's been historically handled (with some rare exceptions, to be certain) by the publisher, Marvel Comics.

    The central problem is that they see her (and all of the other superheroic characters in their stable) as a merely a commodity for merchandising, while we see her (and them) as individual personalities, even if they are only fictional in nature.  When you plug that factor into the equation its not surprising to see the wide deviation in the two versions of fictional materials available for review.
