Last issue, She-Hulk was offered a spot on the Avengers. Will she take it? In the meantime, Jen and Jack of Hearts' space vacation gets quite dangerous. Lingering questions from years ago are going to be asked again, and the answers may just destroy the new It Couple of Comics! THIS COVER WAS PREVIOUSLY SOLICITED AS #4, BUT MOVED TO THIS ISSUE AS THE STORY SHIFTED!
Rated T+
Rainbow Rowell's script is chock-full of whimsy and delicious banter, all while setting up a storyline that I'm excited to see unfold. Read Full Review
Another enjoyable issue that focuses more on character than superheroics. I also very much enjoyed the random character cameo, who is apparently having a bit of a comeback across multiple comics at Marvel. Read Full Review
The story framework couldn't be more basic: drama over Jack and inevitably making friends with Ganymede and, knowing this run, probably helping her lose her virginity isn't exactly breaking new ground--but it's *fun.* Remember when comics were fun? Low-stakes books with strong focuses on their characters continue to be some of the strongest around.
This was a great issue, and if Rowell continues this trend, the start of another fun arc for our jade goddess.
Another really enjoyable issue for the series. Rowell does a great job of taking relatively mundane situations and making them entertaining, fun, and compelling. The dynamic between Jen and Jack continues to be one of the strongest aspects of Rowell's run. Additionally, it's great to have Genolet back on the art duties. All things considered, I'm looking forward to seeing where this goes. Hopefully it leads to some positive development for Jen & Jack, as well as the newly-introduced Ganymede.
I usually wouldn't like this type of book. It's zero action and pure soap opera, but the writings pretty decent. Sometimes it's nice to see a hero trying to uplift someone who is depressed at an alien sun-bar.
