I'm marking this read because I've read it, but there seem to be two distinct versions (not editions, versions) on here, and this keeps coming up to me as unread. But I read it already. So there, GoodReads.

She-Hulk, tackling superhero sex crimes one year before The Boys did.
Gotta be honest, I'm not too warm on the way they capped Eros' sexual assault storyline. From what I understand, yes he used his magic seduction powers to take advantage of a bunch of women, but it's not his fault because Thanos messed up with his mind and because of that his power had a tendency to fire up on its own or something? And because of that he just assumed that every encounter was consensual? I don't know how to feel about it, and it does not make me eager to see Eros join the MCU.
Artwise, I prefer the earlier issues in this volume, with Will Conrad's style. The later issues by Rick Burchett and Cliff Rathburn are, hum, less to my tastes. Which is puzzling because they're both rather talented and have done great work in other series.
I don't know, overall I'd say I've been a bit underwhelmed with the art direction in the 2004-2005 She-Hulk series.

Uncomfortable. Did they seriously just tell a story where a guy with date rape super powers gets off? Maybe it'll address it more in the next issue but the fuck?

This series is fantastic and I certainly did not find this volume to be a disappointment. I love the inclusion of lesser known heroes and an appearance by Thanos is always exciting.

I'd enjoyed the three previous She-Hulk trades from this writing team, but they were, charitably, way out of their league trying to tell a story about desire and impaired consent.

Can we get a full court room drama with She Hulk? I know it would be cool and would emphasize what is great about this character, that she is a woman and a super hero with a career. We get close here and the Starfox on trial (and then trial again) shows a lot of potential but falls short. I will give Dan Slott credit for having the guts to give the Awesome Android an emotional arch that doesn't feel cheap or easy.
