A review by mr_phil
Essential Savage She-Hulk, Vol. 1 by Mike Vosberg, John Buscema, David Anthony Kraft, Stan Lee
2.0
I've gone back to the beginnings of quite a few characters since subscribing to Marvel Unlimited. And this really is ... not good. It's a good job I read this out of interest in the origins rather than expecting it to be great, but really, I mean it's *really* not good.
It tries ever so hard to be comically feminist in tone, attempting to come from the angle of mocking men's attitude to women, but consistently misses the mark. It has her trying either to please male characters throughout, or being justifiably really angry with them but then falling into their arms again.
There's also a *very* strange issue where she stands up for poor misunderstood Big Oil, and another where she buys into a microwave communications tower conspiracy theory.
