I only read the first issue of this series, and was quite impressed. The best of Marvels new books that came out March.
Never been a She-Hulk fan at all, but the freshness and humor won me over. Drunken Super-Heroes always make for a good time! If only Alpha Flight could be this good. God knows I love funny comics, but Scott Lodbel just isn't my cup of tea.

She-Hulk's a pretty good read and I was never a big fan of the character. The premise of a lawfirm tackling superhuman related legal issues is turning out to be pretty fun and inventive so far. And I really like the art.

2 complete and satisfying tales told in 2 issues? I thought that wasnt possible anymore!
Fantastic & hilarious usage of characters such as The Mad Thinker's Awesome Android and Dr. Strange!
Wonderful Art!
And is Jennifer likable or what?
If this quality maintains, this book will swiflty enter my personal top 5.
And because it's so different and well-done, expect its cancellation with issue # 12.
DAMN IT!! Now I gotta hunt down issue 1. STUPID Marvel with their STUPID pin-up-covers policy that don't really tell DIDDLY about what's in the book itself!!

I totally agree! It's such a cool concept, they need to get that across on the covers -- they can't expect people to pick up the book just cuz of her image - it's far from a sure thing.

I agree with the rest of you. I picked up this title not knowing what to expect and I have been pleasantly surprised.

I mean, okay... the pin-up covers policy might be okay for "sure-thing" titles like X-Men and Spider-Man, but for the offbeat stuff like She-Hulk, let it GO!!!
Thank ALL that's SACRED that Milligan & Allred's X-STATIX has apparently never been bound by this idiotic policy!

Don't they do that same thing on the covers to Mystique and Emma's books too? Covers that have nothing to do with the story? I find it offputting and it maybe the reason I didn't give the book a second look (any of them really) when I saw it on the self. Very bad way to hook new readers. At least ones who will stick with the book and don't just want a beaver shot on every cover.

There are a bunch of Marvel books that are like that -- most of the X-titles, Daredevil, Iron Man, Captain America & Falcon, Iron Fist, Ultimate FF, Marvel Knights FF("4") to name a few more that I can think of off the top of my head.
