"Whenever justice is threatened, you can bet on the gamma-powered gal with the brain AND the brawn to right some wrong . . . the Sensational She-Hulk!" -- from the audacious prologue
She-Hulk: The Complete Collection is a wonderful union of writer (Charles Soule, who notably has a background in the U.S. legal system) and artist (Javier Pullido, who might be Marvel's answer to DC's late great Darwyn Cooke) that results in an unorthodox but yet entertaining graphic novel. Attorney Jennifer Walters - the not-so-secret identity of super-heroine She-Hulk - is dismissed from an elite New York City law firm and suddenly has to hang out her own shingle in Brooklyn and scramble for a client base. What quickly ensues is a multi-story narrative that juggles Walters' legit day job - filing motions, attending hearings and trials, conducting interviews - with the expected after-hours super-heroics, or even an bizarre mixing of the two things . . . such as representing Captain America when he is named in a lawsuit (!) About the only item I did not like was the brief switch to a different artist in the middle of the volume, because his style was atrocious. Otherwise, this was a fine mix of drama and humor, and concludes with a standalone chapter that features Deadpool masquerading as Wolverine . . . who inadvertently stabs himself with his new retractable claws in a scene that is worthy of comparison to a comedy skit from the classic Monty Python's Flying Circus series.

This is the spoiler free review for She-Hulk issues 1-12 written by Soule. If you would like to read the spoiler full review with lots of sometimes ugly pictures please visit https://amanjareads.com/2020/03/05/sh...
Heavy sigh.
Okay, so I loved Soule's run on Daredevil. He really made it work and gave me something I could be excited about. But She-Hulk did not live up to that bar. (Lawyer bar, or like the test they have pass, that's a double pun, get it?)
I'm so disappointed by this one. I really thought this would be the run that would get me into a new badass, strong, and smart female hero. Unfortunately, this just didn't deliver.
Storytelling wise, it's repetitive. She-Hulk walks into her office, finds a surprise guest, they go to court or battle out of court, she wins, it happens again. She-Hulk, get a lock on your door! This happens at least 4 separate times in 12 issues! And you, Soule! Find a new storytelling structure!
Additionally, there is an absolutely unbelievable story line following a court case about Captain America, who is old now. It made zero sense and I really expect better from an author with a law background.
If I'm going to spend a whole issue in the courtroom the case should be captivating. This one was laughably ridiculous in all the wrong ways. No judge anywhere would take this case.
It's also just kind of annoying to me when fictional lawyers don't seem to have a specialty. They'll just take any case that walks in their office regardless of what issues it's dealing with.
Another big problem I had with the book was an art change in the middle. It went from mediocre and inoffensive to incredibly ugly and honestly uncomfortable to look at.
This completely took me out of what little story I was engaged in and I just wanted to rush through those issues to get away from the ugly.
My biggest problem with the book is something that has plagued me as a feminist through my whole life. In comics and other traditionally male-centered forms of media there is a habit of making female heroes, regardless of capability, lesser.
This happens in many ways but is frequently displayed by only giving female heroes female villains to fight. They're apparently not strong enough to go up against the big boys so you have to drudge up D listers like Titania and Volcana to fight She-Hulk for the supposedly epic conclusion.
Where did Volcana come from? Why is she involved? She wasn't a part of this story before, Victor Von Doom was but goodness forbid She-Hulk fight him, get her a lady to fight! Volcana would never be brought in against Man-Hulk. She-Hulk is ultra powerful, this isn't even a balanced or interesting fight. It's insulting to her and insulting to me as the reader.
She-Hulk deserves better. All women deserve better.
Please comment below if there is a more empowering She-Hulk run that I could read.
The feminist issues overwrite pretty much anything else for me. I stand by that.

3.5 stars. Book starts off with Jen quitting the law firm she was working at and opening up her own. Let the craziness begin. First off, hiring some help. In comes Angie and her pet monkey Hei Hei as the paralegal and Patsy Walker, aka Hellcat, as the investigator. This ended up being pretty fun. I liked the way Soule wrote Hellcat here. We get legal cases that Jen is working on that lead into adventures. Anything from working with Doctor Doom’s son to helping some inventors sell their tech to Ant-Man. Had some fun with those. There is also the mysterious blue file plot thread that weaves itself though the book which was cool. Then we have old man Cap being sued for wrongful death from back in 1940 before he was cap. This courtroom drama flowed nicely since Soule is a lawyer himself. They even threw one of the few issues I liked from that not so great Wolverines run by Fawlkes. Had Deadpool trying to fill Logan’s shoes by being Wolverine since he was dead at the time. Funny stuff there. Overall, pretty solid run.

It’s sad to give this a 3, but unfortunately, that’s what it earned. The reason I’m sad about it is because of the missed potential.
The last two story arcs (Trial of Cap and the one with Nightwatch) were really good. If the whole collection was like that, this would be a 4.
Unfortunately, the first 9ish issues of She-Hulk were so incredibly boring, and the art was really unfortunate and difficult to look at.
Bad art, more boring content than good content = 3 stars.
It’s kinda cool to see Charles Soule apply his legal expertise as a lawyer to his comic writing, and some of the legalese shit was pretty interesting... but the stories overall were too cutesy. Nothing really pulled me in.
Maybe this is for you. It’s not awful. I was bored.

this is a really fun comic. i’m glad it was my first encounter with she-hulk. the art style is wonderfully stylized and weird, which really goes well with the tone of soule & pulido’s iteration of a character who seems (judging from other people’s reviews #onhere) to have been Heroically Tortured in past comics. i love that the legal drama is the driving force, rather than the superhero stuff; it really gives this a slice-of-life feel. also, i ADORE angie. it’s incredibly rare and wonderful to encounter a badass, entirely weird fat woman character who is literally never, at any point, belittled or shown to be less competent because of her fatness. highly recommended.

My favourite She-Hulk run ever, this is exactly how I want her to be: Hulked out and having fun. This is a really fun graphic novel, with a great, slightly wacky art style, and a Jen Walters who is unapologetic in everything she does. She has a great supporting cast of female characters (some of whom have barely been seen since) who all feel solidly written and not just a nod to Girl Power. Marvel, please make this your new TV show.

Very fun courtroom comedy action tale! I really got into Jennifer Walter's and her rag tag group of friends and Angie, the paralegal. It was precisely what I was hoping for, a fun introduction to a new character. Soule writes She- Hulk, as a person who is honest, goal driven, and golden hearted where it never feels forced. She sometimes will try to take the easy way out but will work her way back to virtue. I loved that. Also the storyline featuring Captain America was some of the best courtroom storytelling I've ever experienced. Comic or not. My two issues were whenever the comic was not by Pulido (which coincidently were only two issues, ba-zing) and sometimes the panel progression were hard to follow considering this is a trade paperback. It becomes difficult to read a splash page when the binding compresses the image, which also leads to you not knowing where the panel breaks are. Soule puts them in enough to make me feel it needed to be noted. Other than that, move aside Matt Murdock, Jennifer Walter's has made her way into my heart.

This series was so good. I loved Soule using his legal background when writing Jen and Pulido and Wimberly's art was outstanding.

A trial involving Daredevil and She-Hulk defending Captain America? Yes please. Delightful collection.
August 11, 2020
Could have been a 5- damn near perfect. Wowowowow did they ever ruin the momentum with the Captain America story arc. Jfc. Tear it out, wipe your ass with it. Probably mandated for the 75th anniversary bs, celebratory j/o marketing thing. Anyway...
She-Hulk by Soule and Pulido is everything you could want in a comic anymore. Put this right up there with Fraction and Aja on Hawkeye. Emotionally intelligent, clean, masterful pacing, smart, funny and engaging. Just an all-around food time to be had. Beg, borrow or steal to get one.
Grade: A

fun with great characters!!! lots of heart and love the cartoony colorful art styles. also I LOVE angie omg though I still don't know what's up with her. sometimes the story arcs either confused me or fell flat though.
March 20, 2025
The story was fine but the art was just not my cup of tea. Some images were just uncanny with eyes going off in different directions, I really disliked the art. Did I mention the art? I didn’t like it!
June 3, 2019
This was really fun! It focused more on the lawyering side than the superhero side, which was unexpected, but I still really enjoyed. My only complaint is I wished there were more.

i really liked it yuh

Smart! Different! The bonus issue of Wolverine was hysterical.

a fun romp! slightly underwhelmed by the last issue

My personal favorite she-hulk storylines, but good god they did my girl DIRTY with the art style.
March 19, 2022
Upbeat, fun and amazing designs and colors. It feels like summer! It does end up being a lot of the same thing (someone needs help-she helps) but it is so much fun it doesn’t matter

Another day another She-Hulk run! This one much shorter so it was easily digested in a single sitting.
She-Hulk's back to being a lawyer and she's back to doing what she nominally does best. Telling goofy jokey stories while balancing her dual lives of being a lawyer and a superhero. And this run's got the special distinction of being written by an actual lawyer, Charles Soule! The first issue has her leaving the current place she works after finding out they had only hired her to exploit her connections to the superhero community. A chance meeting at a bar has her taking on a case that ends in a fat payday and she opens up her own firm!
There's not a whole lot to say beyond that as most of the stories are standalone within these twelve issues, really. Shortly after starting she meets up with and hires a friend of hers Patsy Walker, aka Hellcat (Haha get it?.... if you don't shortly after this run she had her own run under that exact title) and hires a very mysterious woman by the name of Angie Huang to serve as her paralegal. And look, I'll tell you upfront to not expect answers on who Angie is because it ends without answering any of them and she's just weird. And mysterious. I like her a lot and think she's a great character but that was one mildly disappointing aspect.
The art I could see being hit or miss as it's kind of... strange. I feel like it does a good job of matching the tone overall though. It's a little strange, but certainly gets the point across and is very matter-of-fact in how it shows things. If you don't like the art then hey, at least the covers have gorgeous watercolor paintings that are really something special.
The stories themselves are great, though! As I mentioned earlier this was written by an actual lawyer and it certainly shows in many places. The cases she takes on are very interesting, and I was enthused the entire time I was reading it as I wanted to see how they would resolve. In tone the best thing I can think of to compare it to would be the Ace Attorney series, but without the heavy stakes and strong emotional punch. Just very interesting cases that are well told across the length of an issue and end with She-Hulk coming out on top. Usually.
Of particular note for me is the Captain America storyline. In it, he's accused of being responsible for the death of a young man back in the 40's before he even became Captain America. The way the case unfolds is gripping and is one of those things that just kind of defines Cap as a character as much as it is a triumph for She-Hulk herself.
But it remains upbeat through it all and the relationship Jennifer has with both Patsy and Angie is really nice. Just a fun, relatively short read at only 12 issues long that I'd find easy to recommend to just about anyone. And since I can imagine the question coming up I'd personally rank this as the best She-Hulk story I've read so far, with the 2004 run coming in at a very close second, the Dan Slott portion of the 2005 run at a distant third and the Peter David portion of the 2005 run at an abysmal whatever comes after three.

This was a fun and extremely readable collection. Soule pens some fun stories here, leaning into Jen's lawyering more than superheroing. This is one of those "hero adjacent" style series, and it works. You can definitely see the synergy with the MCU and She-Hulk's Disney+ series embedded here, and it flows in an episodic way.
There are fun guest stars and surprises along the way. I mean, props to Soule for digging up and providing new and intriguing Nightwatch content of all things! The Captain America arc is well done, as well as a two-parter involving Dr. Doom's problematic son Kristoff (is he back to being his son, I guess?).
Pulido's art is a good fit for an off-beat series. It has the flavor of Allred/Cooke/Samnee. At times it was a bit too blocky for me, a bit stiff. But, there are some clever splash pages and framing designs that kept it feeling fresh and vibrant. Muntsa Vicente on colors was the real art hero for me, though. Vibrant, fun, and perfect for the series.
While the main storylines get wrapped up, this was ultimately just a 12 part maxi series in the end. The last chapter did have that rushed feeling that detracted a bit from the overall enjoyment. The inclusion of the Wolverines issue was weird, too. I get that it was another Soule She-Hulk story, but it was a weird fit. The Christmas story at the end was cute and fun, though.
All in all, this was a good collection and great for people wanting something different than a normal super hero comic.

Charles Soule brings back She-Hulk to court!!
The first issue is great! We get Jen solving a case that nobody wanted to tackle, win that case and she is set up financially to open her own practice.
Then, we get a few cases that were ok.
After that we follow the mystery of the blue folder which had a lot of build up that was great, but the end was so bad... I was really liking the thriller aspect of this book until the end.
Cap trial could have been better. Honestly, where is the process before the trial? No depositions? All the evidence is shown at trial and testimonies suddenly bring new things? It was supposed to be a court drama with a writer that has experience on it.
Anyway, it was fun to read, but not believable at all. At least we got Jen vs Matt Murdock on the stands.
The art was horrible. I don't think this artist should have been given the green light.
Faces are weird and there are no details at all.
One thing on this department that was good were the issue covers.
One thing going for it was that it was really easy to read, just 2 sittings of an hour each and it was done.

I really, really enjoyed this collection and I'm not that big of a conventional comic guy. This series is witty, it's well-plotted, and it's full of playful references and commentary on the broader Marvel Universe. I'm not a huge comics person so I know I didn't get all the references and don't know who all the minor characters are, but Soule manages to pull you into the story no matter your level of familiarity with the canon. Plus, this is a comic that actually gets lawyering (the practice and lifestyle of being a lawyer) completely right! Seriously, I cannot get over how much fun I had reading this thing. It gets the tone completely right and fully commits to its premise, then stops before it wears the reader out. Highly recommended!
March 5, 2023
Really enjoyed this collection, I love seeing Jen just be a bad-ass lawyer. Plus, appearances from Dr. Doom, elderly Captain America, and Matt Murdock? Great stuff. And Jen's paralegal and Hellcat are really fun characters.
The only thing I can't get over is how much I detest the way that She-Hulk was drawn. The artwork in these books is fun, a rather cute and colorful style unlike a lot of the other She-Hulk runs, but there are some panels were she just looks horrible, imo. In a story where she spends 95% of the time in Hulk form I feel like you have to really nail it, and while I understand that they tried to go for something different it just really did not work for me.
Still really enjoyed the book, though!

This book is a lot of fun, and I love seeing Hellcat in it - although I think she is poorly used as a party girl who's no good in a fight. Still, any Patsy is good Patsy. Jen Walters, Angie the mysterious new paralegal, and Angie's shape shifting capuchin monkey, Wei Wei, are all great. The central mystery feels padded but comes to a very satisfying, if too meta, conclusion.
The art is all over the place, although Pulida does most of the work and it's great. An added Christmas story is particularly good, too.
A too short run, although that seems to be the way of things nowadays. I'd love to see it continued in some form.

Having read literally almost everything of Charles soule, this might be my least favourite thing I've read of his.
I know it's his first foray into marvel and he's trying to put into it what he knows from his own life.
I've never known much about she hulk and I tried reading this before her show came up.
There was just nothing about this series that gripped me. The art was not great (imho) it was very wordy and lawyer centric, which even though I knew going in just made me lose interest, and every single cliff hanger was some super hero or "person of Interest showing up at the door.
Which just became bland after a while

I liked he story, for the most part. The individual episodes were good and the law office setting deserved to be further explored. The ending of the "Blue File" thread seemed to come out of left field (for obvious reasons).
Didn't really like the art. Pulido seems to want to be a cross between Jack Kirby and Mike Allred (the former I like, the latter leaves me flat). Wimberly's two chapters looked like the author's had was shaking the whole time he was drawing; and the coloring for these issues, especially She-Hulk, was almost painful to look at. The covers were great, but were so at odds with each issues contents.

I love this run of Shulkie. She's fierce and determined and strong while spending more time lawyering than punching bad guys. This run includes a defense against Doom, as well as the time she went head to head with Daredevil defending Captain America. I'd definitely read this again. The only thing I don't like is the art for #5-6. It's so rough it makes it hard to follow along and understand what's happening. But the art is consistently great for 1-4 and 7-12 so maybe someone had a vacation or something... This was my first She-Hulk comic after the Marvel Disney+ series and I think it's a great entry point.

Jen Walters gets fired from her day job at this big law firm because she's not bringing them in any superhero cases as they hoped. So she goes off and build her own practice !
This was fun ! kind of a mess at times. It's at its best when She-Hulk is doing her lawyering (which makes sense considering Soule's lawyer background). The story with Dr Doom's son was cool. The one with Daredevil sueing Cap was genuinely awesome. Cool Madrox cameo too (made me want to go back and re-read Peter David's X-Factor run). Ant-Man's in there too !
The blue file stuff was whatever for me. I'm sure it's a cool payoff for people who know these characters but I didn't quite care for any of it.

Really really unique. I can see why Soule got the Daredevil gig after this. The art is...strangely proportioned at first but really grows on you. Far and away the star of the show is the wide variety of legal scrapes She-Hulk gets into. In fact, my only gripe is that I wish there was more of it - the Vernard Asylum arc and initial Iron Man arc felt like they resolved quite quickly, without much legal hassle, but most of this book resolves the issues of the day with varying combinations of physical and legal know-how, which I appreciate. The blue file arc (both halves) was particularly excellent!

Charles Soule pens a fun and authentic She-Hulk reminiscent of Dan Slott's fun run on the book. He shows Jen as capable, fallible, and sensational. He creates a fun supporting cast and does legal drama extremely well. Javier Pullido is perfect on the art chores, especially during the Captain America arc. The book is almost completely pulled down by the two-part run by artist Ron Wimberly in the middle of the book. Overall though, the book is so much fun. Its a shame it didn't get a longer life.
