  As a parody of superhero comics in general and Marvel comics specifically this one's a must have. John Byrne's writing, while normally something that tends to get overlooked in favour of his famous artwork, is superb throughout, targeting the usual clichés and tropes that turn up in these kinds of stories and playfully mocking them. Half the reason this is as enjoyable as it is boils down to the use of fourth wall humour, something that Byrne would or less make a staple of his run with the character, using it to take potshots at pretty much whatever he felt was dumb in comics including himself half the time! Notably, this was a good two years before Deadpool appeared and started using his own (in my opinion, lesser) brand of fourth wall breaking, thus making She Hulk the true pioneer in that regard.One of the other reviewers cleared up the rather odd objections to this title nicely, so I don't think I need to add anything else. It's safe to say that this is a brilliant trade paperback, and any Marvel fans (let alone Shulkie fans) would be wise to make sure it has a place in their collection.

  Altought it isn't a bad comic at all, Byrne's forced comedy is far miss than hit and in the years since have seen far better exemples in Justice League International or Plastic Man breaking the forth wall mostly as a cheap trick device due to lack of proper story (or character development), but it is a fun use of obscure dumb older Marvel villains and side characters.

  This series made me love She Hulk as a kid, and sure enough the book is just as fun as I remember. Definitely worth a read if you want something that marries the humour of Archie with the action of a Marvel book.

  メタなギャグ満載のシーハルク第二期シリーズ。「あと4ページしかないから速攻で片付けるわ！」　「うーんムニャムニャ…ハッ、もう#3が始まっていたわ！」「はあ！？トードメン！？相手クリーでもスクラルでもなくてコイツら！？表紙にいるのギャグか何かだと思ってたんですけど！？」今見るとネタはやや古いが手間隙かけたアートの無駄遣いぶりとの絡め技は必見。この時代この手のパロディをやってたのはJAPANの漫画だけじゃないんだなと。お気に入りは薄っぺらいドレス一枚で派手なファイトをしても破れない理由が明かされるシーン。「あー、そら絶対安全だわ」と笑いました。

  I really didn't like this! I read X Men and Superman as well from John Byrne, but this went waaaay off, I was really saddened, the drawings are good of course as usually Byrne style, but the stories nooooo, especially when the characters are talking to the readers and things like this. I sent back the book because I was sure I would never want to read it again.
