This comic still hasn't broken past mediocre for me. No matter how many cameos we get (Tony Stark, Hellcat, Dr. Doom) there is just something about this comic that doesn't allow me to believe that the stories are part of the Marvel universe. It just feels out of place.
The artwork is killing me! Look at how beautiful that cover art is....then you get inside and you get this monstrosity...
ew
It just doesn't feel like the same quippy Shulkie that hangs out with Spidey and kicks Skrull ass.
Another stellar issue of She-Hulk. I'm not sure that Angie is up to no good anymore ... she had a rather small role in this issue. She might just be ... odd. And I can live with that! Kristoff can get the fuck off his high horse, that is for sure. Honey, you ain't no prince in these here parts. If it wasn't for all your sweet dough, I'm sure Jennifer would show you the door--with her fist.
I love how she deals with the doombots. She puts them right where they belong. And I totally knew that it was a trick--which didn't take away at all from the complete awesomeness this issue was. There needs to be more Hellcat. There needs to be more of this comic in general. I'm feeling the same way about this as I am about Loki. Once a month is just not enough.
We're really starting on a story with some through-plot. I love it. Give me more. She-Hulk will count DOWN von Doom until he's nothing but a zero! Hah. I'd like to see that.
Kristoff Vernard, who happens to be Victor Von Doom's son, wants Jennifer to help him get asylum in the USA. He doesn't want to eventually inherit the leadership of Latveria, and although he might be a little snotty and spoilt, he isn't like his father. So, she decides to help him.
But Doombots get in their way. Well, until Patsy makes an appearance and helps She-Hulk... but that's not The End, because Daddy Dear decides to pay the courthouse a visit. :/
OMG. I knew there was something about Angie. I'm pretty sure she's got some kind of mind control power where she can make you agree with her or do as she tells you. And that monkey, LOL.
This was another great issue. I really enjoyed it!
Like mentioned before, the covers are awesome! However, the artwork on the inside is beginning to grow tiresome. I appreciate She-Hulk's sass and I do like her character, but these last two issues I've read don't have the same charm as the first one. I'm not saying that I need Tony Stark to make a cameo in these issues constantly, but I need someone who can have that snarky back and forth with Jen in order to make the comic more alive. I've never been interested with Dr. Doom either, so the issue already plus his appearance just fell very flat to me.
The thing about She-Hulk is that no matter how chaotic her life as an attorney/superhero can get, she will always have her shit together. Now that Doctor Doom has entered the mix, the balancing act of She-Hulk's two careers is about to get even trickier. But I'm not reading these comics wondering how she will manage her double life, I'm reading these precisely because I know that not only will Jennifer make this task look effortless, but she'll make her enemies look like fools while doing so.
This series has a great mix of action and humor. This issue has appearances by Matt Murdock and Dr. Doom. This series is recommended for people who want fun in their comics.
I guess I've gotten more used to the art now (although certain panels still annoy me), and the writing continues to be fantastic. Jennifer is great, and the supporting cast cracks me up.
Javier Pulido's work takes a little getting used to; especially when you're expecting more Kevin Wada - who does the covers-, but once I got used to his particular style I could thoroughly enjoy the witty tongue in cheek humour She-Hulk does best.
The artist also got a little more creative with his page lay-out than in issues 1 and 2 and it turns out he's actually really good at this -> the Doombot driver sequence, the fantasticar, the courtoom steps brawl. We'd seen some of it in the inside of Jennifer's office building in #2 already, where he draws a very fun double page.
