In issue #40, She-Hulk is depicted jumping rope (apparently) in the nude, with her breasts and genital area covered by blur lines the cover of the same issue shows her covering herself with a form sporting the lines "Approved Comics Code". Two issues tested the limits of the Comics Code: #34 makes reference to the 1991 Vanity Fair cover in which actress Demi Moore appeared nude and pregnant (She-Hulk's version has her holding a green beach ball to imitate Moore's pregnancy). Byrne's She-Hulk stories satirized comic books and introduced She-Hulk's awareness that she is a comic book character. Issues #1–8, 31–46, and 48–50 were written and drawn by Byrne. The Sensational She-Hulk ran for 60 issues.

She-Hulk regained a solo series in 1989, The Sensational She-Hulk (maintaining the 1985 graphic novel's title). The last, #18, appearing in November 1985, was written and illustrated by then-Fantastic Four writer/artist John Byrne. All three graphic novels appeared in 1985.

17: Revenge of the Living Monolith, and Marvel Graphic Novel #18: The Sensational She-Hulk.

During She-Hulk's tenure with the Fantastic Four, she appeared in Marvel Graphic Novel #16: The Aladdin Effect, Marvel Graphic Novel No. Her appearance in The Avengers #233 (July 1983) was drawn by John Byrne, who would later become strongly associated with the character.Īt the conclusion of the first Secret Wars miniseries, She-Hulk joins the Fantastic Four ( Fantastic Four #265 (April 1984)). She-Hulk also made occasional guest appearances in The Incredible Hulk. Her early Avengers appearances continued the running gag about her car troubles. She-Hulk becomes a member of the Avengers in Avengers #221 (July 1982). She-Hulk also appeared in the limited series, Marvel Super Hero Contest of Champions (June to August 1982), in which numerous superheroes are kidnapped from Earth to fight in space. Her earliest guest-starring adventures followed no specific story line, besides her recurring bad luck with automobiles. She-Hulk then made guest appearances in other characters' books. Vosburg later remarked, "The oddest thing about that book was that Frank drew really beautiful women, I drew really beautiful women, and yet, the She-Hulk was never overly attractive." The Savage She-Hulk series lasted until 1982, where it ended with #25 (March 1982). Īll but the first issue of The Savage She-Hulk were written by David Anthony Kraft and penciled by Mike Vosburg, and most issues were inked by Frank Springer. So Marvel decided to publish their own version of such a character to make sure that if a similar one showed up in the television series, Marvel would own the rights. Marvel was afraid that the show's executives might suddenly introduce a female version of the Hulk, as producer Kenneth Johnson had already done with The Six Million Dollar Man. The reason behind the character's creation had to do with the success of The Incredible Hulk (1977–1982) and The Bionic Woman television series. She-Hulk was created by Stan Lee, who wrote only the first issue, and was the last character he created for Marvel Comics until his return to comics with Ravage 2099 in 1992. Walters is set to make her live action debut in the Marvel Cinematic Universe Disney+ series She-Hulk (2022), portrayed by actress Tatiana Maslany.

As a highly skilled lawyer who became a superhero by accident, she frequently leverages her legal and personal experience to serve as legal counsel to various superheroes and other metahumans. She-Hulk has been a member of the Avengers, the Fantastic Four, Heroes for Hire, the Defenders, Fantastic Force and S.H.I.E.L.D. In later series, her transformation is permanent, and she often breaks the fourth wall for humorous effect and running gags. As such, Walters becomes a large, powerful, green-hued version of herself however, unlike Banner, she still largely retains her personality: in particular, she retains the majority of her intelligence and emotional control, although like Hulk she is still susceptible to outbursts of anger and becomes much stronger when enraged. Walters is a lawyer who, after an injury, received an emergency blood transfusion from her cousin, Bruce Banner, and acquired a milder version of his Hulk condition. Created by writer Stan Lee and artist John Buscema, she first appeared in The Savage She-Hulk #1 ( cover-dated February 1980). She-Hulk ( Jennifer Walters) is a fictional character appearing in American comic books published by Marvel Comics.
