This comic is perfect! Jen hires a brilliant monotone receptionist with a monkey and goes for a night out with Hellcat. Javier Pulido’s artwork is amazing as ever and Soule’s producing the best work of his career. I’ll say it again because it’s true: this comic is perfect! Read the full review here!

Sigue sin llamarme la atención, tal vez sea porque los estoy leyendo en español y odio los comics que leo en español.

Reviewed for Women Write About Comics.
I recently read She-Hulk Diaries, having only a vague idea of who the character was. I definitely remembered her being green more often, so I grabbed the new She-Hulk #1 just to check - and was hooked. Similar to Diaries, this new solo series focuses more on the non-superhero side of Jennifer Walter’s life, making her a person that I’d really love to hang out with. Picking up where the last issue left off, Jennifer has just opened her own law practice and is tapping her fingers, trying to figure out her next steps. Clients aren’t beating down her door, but her search for an assistant leads to a very interesting dynamic in her new office life. Jen also meets her landlord, a former mutant who lost her powers on M-Day and is now sympathetic to the needs of supers who can’t afford ridiculous rent and insurance just because they might accidentally bust down a wall or two. The interactions between Jen and her landlord and her assistant are great.
She-Hulk does get to play a bit, donning her purple and white body suit to go work out some stress with her friend Hellcat. It’s not quite as interesting an adventure as her going up against Tony Stark’s lawyers and then Tony himself in the previous issue, but it’s still fun to see how she plays with her friends.

I can't describe what it is about this comic, but I'm just not enjoying it. I truly hate the artwork, I wish it had the same elegance and charm as the cover art.
Everything about this just seems static to me, it is missing something, it just feels lifeless to me. Maybe it is that the characters seem a little flat and boring. Maybe it is the humor which just isn't working for me. It just doesn't have the same punch as She-Hulk, Vol. 1: Single Green Female and Sensational She-Hulk by John Byrne - Volume 1.
I don't know, I'm just not feeling this, if it were any other character I'd have given up by now but Shulkie is my favorite.

Not as great as I expected. Pulido's art doesn't jive with me at all; he's got some incredibly uncanny valley faces, and his action scenes seem incredibly static. I'll try a few more issues, but as much as I want to love She-Hulk, this series isn't doing it for me.

I just wish the art was as good as the cover art, which is amazing and probably some of my favorite comic covers ever. I like where this is going so far, but hope the plot kicks up a notch in the next issue.

I found this was much bbetter than the first issue. I'm getting used to the art whichange I didn't like at first. Also, we have two new characters (and a monkey) in the story.

May 19, 2022The art style isn’t my favourite but I’m obsessed with literally everything else.
August 4, 2022
The writing is good, but the art is kind of bland.
April 13, 2023
the art style was much more creative in this one and I enjoyed it. but the plot wasn't even really a plot.

Golly, these issues are too SHORT! I'd say, this second issue doesn't quite hit it out of the park in the way the first one did, but it is by no means a lesser book. It is a proper continuation, and I was right there with Jennifer from the recap on page one.
Her new legal aide, Angie, is strange. She has a monkey. I don't get it. I smell trouble in River City! With a capital T, two letters from M, and that stands from MONKEY!
Getting drunk with Hellcat was funny ... and potentially dangerous. Hellcat doesn't have any fancy powers, apparently ... she wants more. Hellcat is like Ariel from The Little Mermaid right now. She just wants to be part of A world ... any world. Also, I WANT A GIANT POSTER OF THAT TWO PAGE SHOT OF JENNIFER'S EYES! That was beautiful.
And then Kristoff Vernard (son of Victor von Doom) shows up ... he wants her legal help. I smell simian slipperiness afoot. Though, not gonna lie, "Careless Whisper" started playing in my head when I turned the page and saw him. I soooooo hope this is a sign of a noir direction this comic may go in. Pleeease, please give me She-Hulk Noir.

After getting a surprise payment at the end of last issue, Jennifer has opened her own practice. But she doesn't have any clients. She also doesn't have any staff. Of course that changes when she hires a woman called Angie, who happens to have a monkey. And this monkey goes everywhere with her, even to the office.
LMAO.
Anyway, because things aren't going so well, she decides to go out for the night and meets up with her friend Patsy Walker, who also happens to be Hellcat! They both drink a lot and Patsy ends up getting drunk and irritated. She then drags She-Hulk to a warehouse, where they end up facing some action.
The next day, when she gets to the office, she finds an unexpected would-be client. But I wonder if she can actually trust this guy?
Another great issue. Love how this story is developing, and some of the pages were stunning. This is a seriously gorgeous series.
I love She-Hulk. She cracks me up.

She-Hulk does NOT mess around. I'm really diggin' her attitude. I mean, she's going through a lot of stuff right now and it seems most heroes in the past tend to wallow and whine (some rightly so) but not her, I'll have to say that I wasn't too hot on Hellcat's appearance in this one. Also, I really like the cover art of the issue, but can't really get into the actual comic art inside the actual issue.

Ugh, if only the artwork was better. As always, I love Jennifer Walters. The addition of Hellcat, and their drunk adventures together was genius. The powers-filled office building was great too. I just wish the art was better, especially when it comes to depicting She-Hulk herself. The covers are so gorgeous too, it's just disappointing.

Sigue la expansión de la excelente premisa inicial: Jennifer Walters aka She-Hulk es abogada, tiene problemas como todos, le gusta beber, las fiestas y ejercer su profesión. Su próximo caso?. Contra Tony Stark.

hhhhmmm,a este cómic le falta algo. No creo que siga leyendolo.

She-Hulk is my favorite Marvel character, and this series does her justice. The focus on her law career is a smart move.

I am really enjoying She-Hulk. This is a great relaunch to the series.

I wasn't super into the stories, but it's so great to read about women. Angie (the paralegal) is the best.
