Book Review: She-Hulk vol #1


Book: She-Hulk volume #1: Single Green Female (issues #1-6) by Dan Slott with illustrations by Juan Bobillo and Paul Pelletier

Source: Library

Rating: 5 stars

Review:

Well, this was a fun surprise. She-Hulk a.k.a. Jennifer Walters is even more interesting than I thought she was.

In this volume, years ago when Jen was studying for law school she didn't socialize much so when she was later transformed into the hero She-Hulk she made up for lost time by perhaps partying way too much. Which would fine for the average everyday person but not for an Avenger and a high profile lawyer. Her excessive partying started to catch up with her and ended having her lose her law job and getting kicked out of the Avengers mansion.

The thing is Jen doesn't seem to think regular Jen is any fun compared to She-Hulk. It's almost as if she wishes she could just be She-Hulk permanently.

After losing her job, Jen had the opportunity to work in a new sector of law, Superhuman Law with a new firm.

Some of her new cases had her defending a guy who was accidentally given superpowers but didn't want them. Also, defending a ghost who knew who murdered him and Spider-Man who was suing J. Johan Jameson. As well as trying to stop a prison break.

I really like this and in the end, Jen was starting to realize that plain old Jen was just as cool as She-Hulk. I might try to see if I can find any more of these older She-Hulk volumes at the library. This was great.

Currently Reading: She-Hulk vol #1


I still need to read the current Marvel Now She-Hulk series (I have the issues just haven't read them yet). But I found this at the library and figured I read some of the older issues first.

She-Hulk is a different type of Hulk because unlike her cousin Bruce she's not being hunted or in fear of being captured. She's out there living her life and helping people.

So, hopefully this will be a good read.
