Peter Allen David, often abbreviated PAD, was an American writer of comic books, novels, television, films, and video games. His notable comic book work includes an award-winning 12-year run on The Incredible Hulk, as well as runs on Aquaman, Young Justice, SpyBoy, Supergirl, Fallen Angel, Spider-Man, Spider-Man 2099, Captain Marvel, and X-Factor. His Star Trek work included comic books and novels such as the New Frontier book series. His other novels included film adaptations, media tie-ins, and original works, such as the Apropos of Nothing and Knight Life series. His television work includes series such as Babylon 5, Young Justice, Ben 10: Alien Force and Nickelodeon's Space Cases, which he co-created with Bill Mumy. David often jokingly described his occupation as "Writer of Stuff", and he was noted for his prolific writing, characterized by its mingling of real-world issues with humor and references to popular culture, as well as elements of metafiction and self-reference. David earned multiple awards for his work, including a 1992 Eisner Award, a 1993 Wizard Fan Award, a 1996 Haxtur Award, a 2007 Julie Award and a 2011 GLAAD Media Award.
Hulka se está volviendo uno de mis personajes preferidos, por lo que no podía dejar de leer el especial que le dedicaron cuando la mujer esmeralda alcanzó los 30 años. Y cuando empecé a leer no esperaba sentirme tan identificado con la abogada verde. Yo también estoy cerca de llegar a mi tercera década y me centro más en lo que no he conseguido que en mis logros. Así que este es un cómic con el que no solo me he divertido, sino que, como con Hulka, me ha dado una colleja para que espabile y mire al futuro con más optimismo. Es el primer cómic de Hulka que he leído de Peter David, y si esto es un ejemplo de su etapa con el personaje, tengo que decir que me gusta su trabajo, me recuerda a los buenos momentos de las etapas John Byrne y Dan Slott, aunque puede que eso sea solo para homenajear el pasado del personaje.
For a 30th anniversary edition not a lot really happens here.
Just some very sub par stories and some ridiculously sexist outfits. How hard is it to have a female superhero who doesn't have gravity defying and almost an anatomically impossible bursting out chest.
I don't know if there could have been a better anniversary issue celebrating 30 years of She-Hulk outside of this issue. Funny, meta and just downright an incredible send off from Petr David on writing duties. As well as a beautiful celebration of the character.
This was actually a fairly silly one-shot and not a whole lot happened. However, I am still in mourning for Peter David, so I'm not going to give it lower than 3 stars.
