If you're looking for something new, inviting, and cute, SHE-HULK #1 is definitely for you. I was genuinely shocked as to how much I liked this opening installment. Readers will leave SHE-HULK #1 feeling almost endeared towards Jennifer Walters. And to those that have followed Rowell, she does a masterful job writing smart and sensitive characters which is exactly what SHE-HULK needs right now. Read Full Review

She-Hulks back in her very own ongoing, and so far its off to a very good start. Rainbow Rowell doesnt shy away from using past continuity to enrich the story, but you its not necessary for you to have read those books to understand whats going on. Rowell has a nice sense of timing with this issue, and doesnt shy away from delivering the humor bits. Toss in the absolutely kitschy art from Antnio, and this book could be the book to watch.

She-Hulk #1 is a fantastic debut that has such a focus and awareness of the character. I presents a superhero that is easy to relate to, especially if you're getting up there in age. It's my favorite debut so far this year. Read Full Review

Overall the issue is fun and helps set up the story for new and old readers. With She-Hulk, having this duality between the Hulk and Jen Walters, balancing that dynamic is complex. Rowell and Antonio can have fun and understand the difference between them. The issue dramatically references and reinforces those differences, creating an excellent start to a She-Hulk comic.

She-Hulk #1 effectively establishes Jen Walters' new lease on life and offers newcomers a welcome jumping on point to her adventures. While not as overtly humorous as previous She-Hulk series, Rowell's writing captures Shulkie's personality well enough and the artwork by Antonio and Renzi is worth the price of admission alone. This is a strong title for a strong character. Read Full Review

She-Hulk #1 is the return to form that fans have been waiting to see for years. Rainbow Rowell and Roge Antonio spend twenty pages reminding you what you like about the character, all the while utilizing their own strengths as creators to amplify that love even more. It's fairly light on plot, but that shouldn't be enough to scare any fan of the character away. This is one to keep both eyes on. Read Full Review

I was very much looking forward to this series, and this first issue does not disappoint. Fun writing and great art work together to deliver a nigh perfect issue of set-up and status quo introduction. Read Full Review

I would recommend this one if you are a fan of the She Hulk character and want to read a story written by this author. Read Full Review

'She-Hulk' #1 mixes action and humor with relatable personal drama. This series may bring readers closer to Jennifer Walters' heart than ever before. Read Full Review

Final ThoughtsShe-Hulk #1 successfully pulls off a '90s-style, light and airy tone showing how the main character is down-on-her-luck in every way possible. While the tone is inoffensively pleasant, this first issue is nothing more than a decompressed prologue that doesn't get to the heart of the story until the last page. It's the cotton candy of adventure stories, and maybe that's enough for She-Hulk fans who've waited for her return to form. Read Full Review

First and foremost, this new run of She-Hulk seems laser-focused on bringing Jen back to basics. After years of inconsistent characterization and experimental new takes of varying success, the Shulkie fans know and love is more recognizable than ever in this series. From a requisite appearance from Titania to the return of a major figure from the beloved Dan Slott run, writer Rainbow Rowell firmly has Jen back in the Ally McBeal-esque mode her fans prefer. Read Full Review

Despite starting with a poorly paced issue relying far too much on a single, inconsequential sequence, it still provides much to enjoy in its sense of style. There's plenty of potential to be found in this debut, let's just hope that it focuses on a story worth following before the end of She-Hulk #2. Read Full Review

This could have been an amazing place for new fans to jump in, and old fans to fall more in love with She-Hulk. But were it not for the art, this book would have been a total dud. Read Full Review

I absolutely loved this and rated accordingly. It's not an objectively fair rating, though. This script introduces Jen's new status quo in "show don't tell" fashion. Which is usually terrific -- but this issue shows the potential pitfalls. I know this will be a *lot* less impressive to readers who don't recognize Titania or Mallory Books or the final scene guest star.

But I think it's still a dang good book on its own. The art is great -- so dynamic and expressive. The dialogue's sharp and fast, just like Jen.

And if you *do* get all the continuity gags, this is fanservice heaven. That's an *exact* visual recreation of Jen's apartment from the Byrne era, isn't it?

Rainbow Rowell's Runaways was great, and this is great too. I really hope this doesn't get dragged into Reckoning War.

It's a very fun book, i loved the art and Jennifer's voice here.

Pretty fun. Great art and gorgeous colors. Excited to meet Jack of Hearts.

Pretty fun start to this book. This does a good job of setting up multiple things in the issues to come without being too overbearing. Firstly, we get Jennifer's meeting with Maria, which establishes their relationship well while also giving us, somewhat, of a sense as to where Jennifer is in her life right now. Then, we get to see more on Jennifer specifically as she shows up to her first day at her new job. Her interaction with her boss was a lot of fun. Speaking of Jennifer's interactions, her and Janet have such a wholesome relationship that's very nice to see (So much so that Janet basically hands a nice apartment to Jennifer while she works to get her own place). In the ending, we get the shock that is the return of the Jack of Hearts. Overall, a great first issue that sets the stage well for this run. more

Great start.

Fun light book. Great art

Love the way Rowell can play with Marvel History of niche series and propel them forward. Like in her Runaways run!
In this way she reminds me a lot of early Dan Slott. Specially Slott’s She-Hulk’s.

Super back to basics reset tale with standard self-discovery plots, occasionally doing something modern and interesting (like the resolution with Titania who I hope becomes a series regular).
All I know is this gave just enough to have me wanting more.

There is a unique feminine flavor here that I think certain readers will really dig.

I was not a fan of the dialogue at all, very childish, but it wasn't that bad and those last two pages sure are interesting.

This was...a start. I enjoyed Rowell's Runaways run but this just felt like like it was all set up for this story. That is not bad per se but I did not find it super engaging. The twist at the end will be interesting come the next issue and I really did like the art and inks. I think that my opinion on this issue will improve when I read it in a sequence of serialized stories as this book comes out, but this first issue as a standalone was not my favorite book this month by any means.
