I enjoyed this...definitely not what I normally read. But, I love Marvel, and have watched the She-Hulk series, so when I saw this, I had to grab it to read.
Even though this is vol 1, I feel like I came into this book in the middle of the story.
4.5/5 ✨
I finally picked up this gorgeous comic book because it was blessedly only $2.99. For a grad student, that’s practically free — well not really, but I could afford it and that’s important to me. Anyway, I knew I would love this going into it because I know that this story only gets 10 issues. I’m not sure what’s up with my brain, but longer comic runs do not get finished — at least for me. I don’t manage to finish them. I’m pretty sure that will change this year because I’ve really gotten into following the weekly/bi-weekly journeys of certain manga series, but I digress.
She-Hulk is a new favorite character. I already know I’ll be searching out more content and more world lore because I’ve genuinely never consumed She-Hulk specific Marvel content. After reading this, I’m mad that I haven’t! I don’t know what brought these fascinating characters to where they are in this volume, but I’m involved now! I need backstory! I want more Jack of Hearts! I need more domestic interactions between the heroes! It’s great!
If you’ve been thinking of diving into She-Hulk, specifically Rainbow Rowell’s go at it- do it! I loved her Runaways issues, so it’s not surprising that I loved this.
‼️The .5 stars I docked off is easily remedied and reflects on my reading experience. I just don’t know the history so that took me out of it. That part of the rating does not reflect on the story itself. It’s merely my experience. ‼️

Rainbow and Tatiana Maslaney made she hulk interesting. I probably wouldn’t have read this otherwise. It was fun.

This was a lot of fun! There were a lot of references to other volumes/arcs, but it provided enough context most of the time. I'm ready to read more!
