Another classic Marvel villain returns as Jennifer Walters finds herself in a new mess. Her friendship with Hellcat is one of the realest feeling relationships in Marvel comics. Jahnoy Lindsay's art keeps up and fleshes out the incredibly plotted conversation pieces that give this comic a spectacular human element. Read Full Review
She-Hulk #159 was a pleasantly surprising read. The story was gripping, if a bit slow. We dont get to see Jen fully She-Hulk out, but she is a likable enough character that I was fine just reading about her. Hellcat has a great presence in the comic too, and the read was overall compelling. I recommend it. Check it out. Read Full Review
If you've heard about the trials that Jen Walters has gone through over the past year, you might be forgiven for expecting She-Hulk to be a grim, humorless comic about a character grappling with bitterness and depression. And the character is that " but under Tamaki's pen, she's also so much more, and so are the situations and supporting cast she interacts with. Jen's got a hard road ahead of her, to be sure " but even here, in the depths of her struggles, you can see glimmers of hope for the future. Read Full Review
For fans of when it was called Hulk, it lacks the focus on trauma, anger, PTSD, and other heavy thematic elements that made them interested in the first place. For old fans of the character, it lacks the excitement, the lawyering, and the sense of fun. Read Full Review
She-Hulk #159 gives Jennifer Walters a fresh start with Marvel Legacy, but loses the emotional punch of Tamaki's earlier issues with the series' transition from Hulk back to She-Hulk. Read Full Review
Jen Walters falls afoul of baddies who have an evil interest in her Hulk-itude. While this new story is packed with promise, its pace is still lethargic and decompressed. Jahnoy Lindsay's art is clean, but it reacts negatively with the slow scenes and makes this issue feel too empty. The simplistic coloring doesn't help, either. I'm weirdly fascinated by the stalkerish Robyn Malt. She proves in creepy ways that those who appear scatterbrained aren't necessarily stupid - or harmless.
If you want a Jen Walters comic, then title it "Jen Walters". Stop lying on the cover. This boring shit is a disgrace.
