She-Hulk (Jennifer Walters-Jameson) is a Marvel Comics superheroine. Created by writer Stan Lee and artist John Buscema, she first appeared in Savage She-Hulk #1 (February 1980).
She-Hulk has been a member of both the Avengers and the Fantastic Four. A highly skilled lawyer, she has served as legal counsel to various superheroes on numerous occasions.

[edit] Publication history
At the one-year anniversary of the character, She-Hulk made a guest appearance in Spidey Super Stories # 50 (January 1981). Spidey Super Stories was a Spider-Man title marketed to children just learning to read. She-Hulk later met Spider-Man for the first time in the regular Marvel Universe in a Marvel Team-Up #107 (July 1981) in a story that seems to fit between issues #16 and 17 of the Savage She-Hulk series (published in May and June of 1981). That chronology is suggested by the behavior of Jennifer Walters' nemesis Assistant District Attorney Buck Bukowski, in spite of the fact the Savage She-Hulk issues in question were published right before the Marvel Team-Up issue.
The Savage She-Hulk series lasted until 1982 where it ended with #25 (March 1982). A few months later, the She-Hulk appeared in Marvel Two-in-One #88 (June 1982), in which she tried to seduce the Thing and helped him stop a supervillain who attacked a power plant. She also appeared in a three-issue limited series, Marvel Super Heroes Contest of Champions (June to August 1982), in which numerous superheroes were kidnapped from Earth to fight in space. That miniseries was sort of a low-rent predecessor of the more expansive, 12-issue Secret Wars miniseries a few years later. She-Hulk's main participation in Contest of Champions was a fight in issue #2 (July 1982).
Shortly after her post- Savage She-Hulk guest appearances, the She-Hulk became a member of the Avengers, in Avengers #221 (July 1982). Although Contest of Champions continued until August of that year, it was obvious that She-Hulk was not yet an Avenger during that miniseries' storyline.
She-Hulk joined the Avengers at the same time that Hawkeye rejoined. She also made occasional guest appearances in The Incredible Hulk, such as Incredible Hulk #282 (April 1983). Then, at the conclusion of the first Secret Wars miniseries, she joined the Fantastic Four in Fantastic Four #265 (April 1984). Avengers #243 (May 1984) also records the She-Hulk's return to Earth as a member of the Fantastic Four at the conclusion of the Secret Wars.
During She-Hulk's tenure with the Fantastic Four, she appeared in Marvel Graphic Novel #18 in November 1985.
She regained a solo series in 1989, The Sensational She-Hulk. Two issues from that run have generated controversy. Issue 34 of that run is a spoof of the Demi Moore Vanity Fair cover from 1991. Further controversy was generated in issue 40. She-Hulk stars in a nude jump-rope issue. It has lead to that issue being one of the hardest to find comics of the modern era.
In 1990 she appeared in the two-issue She-Hulk: Ceremony. The Sensational She-Hulk lasted until issue #60 in February 1994, making it the longest-running She-Hulk series so far, and in fact the longest-running solo title of any female Marvel character up to that point, which lasted until Spider-Girl #61 in 2003. The She-Hulk retained her membership with the Avengers throughout the run of Sensational She-Hulk,
After the cancellation of her second solo series, the She-Hulk continued making backup and one-shot appearances -- such as in Marvel Fanfare (December 1989) and Avengers Unplugged #4 (April 1996) -- and made appearances in The Incredible Hulk (including December 1993) and The Avengers, plus a guest-starring role in a 1996 miniseries, Doc Samson. Her next major appearance was in May 2002, a one-shot called Thing and She-Hulk: The Long Night.
In 2004 She-Hulk was given a new title and launched in a wave of six new Marvel books. Despite favorable critical notices the new series could not escape the low sales numbers that both it and other titles received from their initial cluster-style launch. Marvel decided to give the book a second chance to find an audience. With a relaunch planned 8 months later, Marvel brought the series to a close with #12 and promised a relaunch of the title (as a "second season") eight months later. The eight month gap was alluded to in the body of the story itself.
Eight months later, like clockwork, the book returned as promised in October 2005, with the original creative team (Dan Slott and Juan Bobillo) from the previous series. The third issue was billed as the 100th issue of a She-Hulk comic book, and it had story art by numerous artists who sported their own interpretations of the character's looks. Among them was seminal She-Hulk artist, Mike Vosburg (who drew Savage She-Hulk #2 through #25). There was no new artwork by '80s and '90s artist John Byrne, but he was represented by a complete reprint of his first solo issue of Sensational She-Hulk. Savage She-Hulk #1 was also reprinted, featuring the story by Stan Lee and art of John Buscema.
[edit] Fictional character biography
Jennifer Walters, the cousin of Bruce Banner (Hulk), is the small and somewhat shy daughter of Los Angeles County Sheriff Morris Walters. Agents of Nicholas Trask, a crime boss who had crossed paths with her father, shot and seriously wounded her on a day that Bruce Banner happened to be in town for a visit. Since no donors of her blood type were available, Banner provided blood for a transfusion; his radioactive blood transformed Jennifer into the green-skinned She-Hulk.
As She-Hulk, Jennifer possessed powers similar to those of her cousin, though at a reduced level. She also possessed a less monstrous, more amazonian appearance. Jennifer's early adventures were chronicled in the 1980 Marvel Comics series The Savage She-Hulk which, following the first issue, were written by David Anthony Kraft.
Although initially uncontrolled while in her form as She-Hulk, she eventually gained the same levels of intelligence she possessed as Jennifer Walters. By the time of the character's first anniversary, she had made a guest appearance in Spidey Super Stories, and was lucid enough to encourage the Rhino to seek a fair trial for an alleged crime he had committed.
Jennifer Walters quickly came to appreciate the confidence and assertiveness that came with being She-Hulk. At this point in her character development, she felt more comfortable in her form as She-Hulk than in her "normal" form as Jennifer. After a brief solo career, she joined The Avengers, and temporarily replaced the Thing in the Fantastic Four.
During her tenure with the Fantastic Four, the She-Hulk had to prevent a radiation leak in a downed S.H.I.E.L.D. Helicarrier. This radiation exposure had a drastic effect on Jennifer: she could no longer transform back into her original form. However, this was an agreeable turn of events for her, since she preferred being She-Hulk, and it was revealed much later that the block was purely psychological.
After her Fantastic Four years, She-Hulk rejoined the Avengers and began working for District Attorney Blake Tower. Here she met Louise "Weezi" Mason, formerly the Golden Age superheroine called the Blonde Phantom. She-Hulk later discovered that Mason had manipulated Towers into hiring her, so that Mason might again star in a comic book (and thus avoid dying of old age). Later, while doing legal work for Heroes for Hire, She-Hulk spent some time dating Luke Cage.
She-Hulk currently practices law in the Superhuman Law division of the New York firm of Goodman, Lieber, Kurtzberg & Holliway (GLK&H) (The law firm's name incorporates the names of the founding fathers of Marvel Comics: publisher Martin Goodman; publisher, writer, and creator Stan Lee, [whose original surname was Lieber]; and artist Jack Kirby, [whose original surname was Kurtzberg].)
While practicing at GLK&H, Jennifer gradually became comfortable as both She-Hulk and Jennifer Walters, realizing that she has much to offer the world in both forms.
She-Hulk has registered under the Superhuman Registration Act, and is a supporter of Tony Stark (Iron Man). However, as an attorney, she has advised individuals on both sides of the Civil War. She agreed to file suit against Peter Parker for fraud on behalf of her father-in-law, Daily Bugle publisher J. Jonah Jameson. Her intention is to keep the suit tied up in the courts indefinitely. She is also the lawyer for Speedball in Civil War: Front Line.
In She-Hulk #14 (2006), Clay Quartermain, a SHIELD Agent, shows up in Jennifer's apartment to inform her that she has been drafted as a SHIELD agent as a result of her registration.
[edit] Powers and abilities
In her She-Hulk form, Jennifer possesses superhuman strength. When she transforms back and forth, she gains/loses considerable mass (much of it muscle). Unlike her cousin, her personality and intelligence are less affected when she transforms into the She-Hulk, although she becomes more self-confident and assertive.
As She-Hulk, Walters is proportionally stronger than she is in her Jennifer Walters form. This means that any extra strength gained as Jennifer Walters through intense physical training will be amplified, making her She-Hulk form exponentially stronger. She used this exponential strength and training to her advantage when she fought the Champion of the Universe on an alien world (where court cases were decided through boxing matches). While Jennifer Walters' training resulted in her becoming a bit more toned, She-Hulk's musculature, in contrast, became much more pronounced. As a result, she donned a special strength-controlling bodysuit to replace her business clothes, which no longer fit her frame. Walters subsequently shed some of that muscle mass during a work hiatus, but since first becoming She-Hulk, her strength has increased. During the Avengers story arc "The Search For She-Hulk", it was established that fear increases her strength. However, her strength does not reach the Hulk's rage-enhanced levels. The She-Hulk is impervious to extreme levels of injury, pain and disease: her skin can withstand extremes of temperature, as well as tremendous stresses and impacts without puncture wounds or lacerations. Her enhanced physiology renders her immune to all terrestrial diseases.
Thanks to training by the Ovoid alien race, She-Hulk can exchange her physical characteristics and powers with the physical characteristics and powers of another being by simply focusing on a mental image of the person and willing the transfer to take place. The actual intent of the Ovoid skill is to exchange the minds of the user and another being, but it was theorized by the Ovoid who trained the She-Hulk that some factor of her gamma-mutated physiology causes her use of this talent to manifest in a different way. She rarely uses this power; unless she initiates this exchange with another superhuman being, she will become basically human in ability, but still green-skinned and generally recognizable as She-Hulk, and thus vulnerable to attack (a fact that the super-villainess Titania took advantage of the one time She-Hulk did use this ability).
She-Hulk's legal practice requires her to spend extended periods of time as Jennifer Walters. The Scarlet Witch cast a spell for her which rendered anyone intending to harm the She-Hulk incapable of recognizing her as Jennifer Walters. However, the spell actually rendered Jennifer Walters completely undetectable to these individuals. While this had its advantages, it also left Jennifer unable to communicate with certain people whose knowledge or information it was vital for her to acquire. The spell was eventually removed by Dr. Stephen Strange, the Sorcerer Supreme of the Marvel Universe.
[edit] Skills
She-Hulk is a formidable hand-to-hand combatant, having been trained by Captain America and Gamora. Even in her Jennifer Walters form, she possesses sufficient skill in the martial arts to dispatch several would-be muggers much larger than she is.
Jennifer Walters is a skilled pilot, as has been shown in multiple issues of Avengers and Fantastic Four.
Extremely intelligent, She-Hulk is a skilled and experienced attorney. In spite of the character's party-girl image, she is a bona fide intellectual, being one of the few superheroines to have attained an advanced post-baccalaureate degree. Jennifer attended UCLA School of Law, where she was a member of the Order of the Coif, a national merit society for top legal scholars. It is revealed in the Savage She-Hulk that Walters has also attended Harvard Law School; though details are not provided, it is probable that she earned a master of laws (LL.M.) degree at Harvard to complement her juris doctor (J.D.) degree from UCLA. She has shown great versatility in her legal practice, representing criminal defendants, corporations, and even domestic violence victims.
She-Hulk is not above using her looks and sex appeal to her tactical advantage in a fight; she did so against a then-single Hawkeye during a conflict in their early appearances together in Avengers. It is revealed in She-Hulk #100/#3 that she once distracted and destroyed a cadre of alien villains by staging a wardrobe malfunction. In that issue, court testimony also reveals that her breasts are the largest of any heroine in the Marvel Universe.
In addition to her considerable strengths, She-Hulk does have a habit of appearing late for appointments — such as on the splash page of Avengers Unplugged #4 (April 1996). Due to lateness she missed the opportunity to appear on the David Letterman talk show with the other Avengers (Avengers #239).
[edit] Breaking the fourth wall
She-Hulk apparently possesses a form of "cross-dimensional" or metafictional awareness, as she is capable of breaking through the so-called fourth wall. In some stories she has revealed an awareness that she is a comic book character, which has allowed her to tear through the page or run over a page of advertisements in order to reach an enemy's control center. On several occasions when the comic's writer (John Byrne) appeared to be out of control, she engaged in arguments with him, or appealed directly to the comic's editor, Renée Witterstaetter. She briefly carried on this trend during her tenure with the Heroes for Hire, when she spoke directly to the book's omniscient narrator and actually fired him for losing the plot. Other Marvel characters aware that they are fictional characters in comic books include She-Hulk's friend Louise Mason (the Blonde Phantom); Loki, (on occasion); Rick Jones; Squirrel Girl; Howard The Duck; and Deadpool. For a time Wyatt Wingfoot was also aware he was in a comic book.
The latest She-Hulk series has, in general, refrained from seriously acknowledging this ability, save for a coda in Volume 2, #3 (#100), in which Jennifer is asked if she really can interact with the readers and she replies "No," while her face and eyes are drawn in such a way as to convey an awareness of the reader.
The new series has broken the fourth wall in a different way, making use of a concept dating back to Lee and Kirby's early Fantastic Four: the Marvel heroes permit adaptations of their adventures to be published. (At one time Captain America was the artist of his own licensed comic.) All comics published before 2001 bear the seal of the Comics Code Authority of America, (a federal agency in the Marvel Universe), and are considered legal documents admissable as evidence in the superhuman law cases on which the She-Hulk works.
[edit] Relationships
She-Hulk's relationships with men have been defined by her dual needs for independence and acceptance. These needs were evident in her often tempestuous relationship with her father, Sheriff Morris Walters. A widower whose wife had been killed by mobsters, Walters was overprotective, controlling, and judgmental. In response, Jennifer sought independence from her father, while also desiring his acceptance.
Sheriff Walters felt that the best way for Jennifer to live was for her to follow his values. However, Jennifer grew up perceiving the gray areas of law enforcement. (For example, she interpreted the events leading up to riots which occurred during her childhood differently from her father.) Although Jennifer saw her decision to become a criminal defense attorney as a kind of homage to her father, Sheriff Walters instead interpreted her choice (to defend criminals) as a rejection of his values.
Jennifer worked at nurturing a supportive relationship with her father, and remained close to a childhood friend, Zapper, with whom she ultimately became romantically involved. Being She-Hulk allowed Jennifer to express emotions which she was not otherwise comfortable revealing. For example, although Jennifer Walters was restrained from dating a younger man, as the She-Hulk she felt free to express her affection for Zapper. During that same time, Jennifer pursued a problematic relationship with the affable ne'er-do-well Richard Rory (Man-Thing), who actually valued her for who she really was.
Ultimately, She-Hulk's relationship with Zapper fell apart, primarily due to her insistence on permanently remaining in her She-Hulk form, eschewing the Jennifer Walters persona that Zapper had grown up with. Zapper believed that Jennifer's preference represented a rejection of the character's true self. Although in actuality She-Hulk liberated much of Jennifer Walters' repressed personality, the She-Hulk persona also repressed certain aspects of Jennifer Walters' personality which She-Hulk found distasteful.
During her time as an Avenger, She-Hulk engaged in a relationship with Starfox (Avengers #234, August 1983). However, this encounter was later retold in flashback (She-Hulk volume 2 #7 June 2006)), and in that storyline, Starfox was on trial, charged with sexually assaulting a married woman. The alleged victim testified that Starfox's euphoria power had forced her to be sexually forward — as forward as She-Hulk herself had been during her own encounter with Starfox. Upon hearing this testimony Jennifer concluded that her interaction with Starfox had not been consensual, but she later discovered that Starfox had not used his powers on her.
She-Hulk was briefly engaged to the younger Wyatt Wingfoot, whom she first met during her tenure with the Fantastic Four (Fantastic Four #269 [August 1984]). She let her guard down with Wyatt, expressing her vulnerabilities as Wyatt supported her during a series of traumatic events. A paparazzi took photos of her sunbathing topless in Fantastic Four #275. Later, corrupt agents of S.H.I.E.L.D forced her to strip naked in Marvel Graphic Novel #18. Although She-Hulk put forward a brave exterior during those incidents, she appreciated Wyatt's support.
Although She-Hulk deeply values close emotional ties with family, friends and lovers, she seldom admits the depth of her need for these attachments. For example, years after her mother died, Jennifer could not move on from the family home. Even when her father moved out, Jennifer would not leave her family memories behind. The Avengers and Fantastic Four became surrogate families for her; she forged strong bonds with them.
She-Hulk is presently married to John Jameson, whom she first met while he was the Man-Wolf in a Microverse adventure in Savage She-Hulk. (The two precipitously eloped in Las Vegas [She Hulk #9].) However, the two shared an apartment with She-Hulk's colleague, Augustus "Pug" Pugliese, who holds an unspoken (but obvious) crush on her. Pug correctly deduced that the suddenness of She-Hulk's strengthened feelings for Jameson and the pair's marriage were the result of manipulation by Starfox. Due to his efforts to prove this, She-Hulk and John became aware of Pug's crush just as John was forced to become the Man-Wolf once more.
She-Hulk's passion for John has cooled since Starfox's "love zap" was removed. However, John was never zapped, and his deep love for Jennifer Walters has been confirmed. (John has stated a preference for She-Hulk in her human form.) She-Hulk's reaction to John as the Man-Wolf/Stargod has not been positive. The two are still married, but are currently spending time apart.
Since the separation from her husband, She-Hulk has had a fling with Clay Quartermain and made a pass at Wolverine. Wolverine rebuffs her, saying he has no wish to "chase after Juggernaut's sloppy seconds." She-Hulk replies angrily: "I didn't sleep with Juggernaut! Why does everyone keep saying that?"
[edit] Personality and costumes
Due to her affiliation with different supergroups over the years, She-Hulk has donned numerous costumes. She-Hulk's personality has also gone through significant changes: from aggressive and short-tempered to intelligent, free-spirited, and vivacious.
Because of her various outfit changes, no single costume can be considered iconic (compared to, for example, Superman's blue and red 'tights', or Spider-Man's red and blue costume and mask). However, She-Hulk is immediately recognizable due to her size, her green skin and her long green hair.
In her first appearance, She-Hulk was a massive, towering amazon, with wild, untamed, nearly waist-length hair. She wore a ragged white dress (the dress ripping and tearing as Walters turned into her giant alter-ego), and always went barefoot. By some miracle, that white garment, which was often only the blouse that Walters had on before her transformation, always hid her unmentionables, in the same way that enough of the Incredible Hulk's pants always survived to hide his privates after his transformations. When she was asked about this in an early issue of the second series, in response she simply revealed that her clothes carry the label of the Comics Code.
During one of her 'savage' appearances, She-Hulk visited a high-priced dress shop and shredded a small outfit to make it fit her large frame: she was credited with starting the "ripped look," in which fashionistas sported strategically torn shirts, jackets and jeans.
After her 'Savage era', She-Hulk joined the Avengers and began dressing in a one-piece aerobics outfit, complemented with leg warmers and sneakers. During the Avengers era she wore a purple, one-piece bathing suit, with a white belt and black boots.
After the first of the Secret Wars, She-Hulk took the place of The Thing and became a full-fledged member of the Fantastic Four. Her costume kept the sleeveless/legless bathing suit design, incorporating the colors and style of the FF costumes, with white gloves and boots. After leaving the Fantastic Four, she rejoined the Avengers, donning a white one-piece costume with the blue Avengers insignia emblazoned on it.
More recently, She-Hulk has worn a purple and white one-piece outfit similar to a swimsuit, complemented by fingerless gloves and boots or athletic shoes. Her hair is long and straight, as opposed to the thick, curly tresses she sported in the past. In the issues of the Civil War cross-over, she wears the swimsuit-like outfit and fingerless gloves, but is barefoot.
Her personality has also changed over the years: originally ill-tempered and violent, she's now a fun-loving, gentle woman who frequently deploys humor when fighting. She even stated in The Sensational She-Hulk vol. 2, #27 that she prefers not to kill her foes, especially ones that she has already subdued.
[edit] Appearances in other media
[edit] Animated series adaptations
She-Hulk first appearance on television was in the 1982 animated The Incredible Hulk series broadcast on NBC, where she was voiced by Victoria Carroll. This occurred in the eleventh episode entitled, "Enter: She-Hulk." This episode briefly dealt with She-Hulk's origin (an emergency blood transfusion), while had Bruce Banner seeking She-Hulk's help in retaining his mind when he transforms into the Hulk. Matching the comic styling of the character at time, this She-Hulk was based on the Savage era.
She-Hulk appeared in the 1996 The Incredible Hulk animated series. She was voiced by Lisa Zane in season one and Cree Summer in season two. The series followed the comic book origins, having Jennifer Walters be Bruce Banner's cousin who receives a blood transfusion in a life and death situation, triggering a virtual one way transformation into a Sensational style She-Hulk who pretty much becomes the Hulk's constant companion. She only appeared in two episodes in season one, but practically pushed Hulk aside for center stage in season two, going from a fun and interesting character to an over the top yet comical femme fatale in season two.
She-Hulk will appear in an episode of Cartoon Network's new Fantastic Four series.[1]
[edit] Live-action adaptation
A live-action motion picture was planned in the late 1980s with Carl Gottlieb as writer and production by Tamara Asseyez. Marvel Comics had been interested in producing the film for several years due to the prior success of the Hulk television series. At the time Marvel Comics did not yet have the self-sustaining finances they have today to generate big budget films for their characters. Thus, they often sought out outside financial backers for various projects. The now bankrupt New World Pictures was one of the main studios used. Knowing that female characters were a harder sell on the big screen, Marvel Comics hired statuesque actress Brigitte Nielsen to pose for photos dressed in She-Hulk garb in order to give potential investors a visual idea of what can be done with the character. Brigitte had previously filmed a movie for Marvel Comics in 1985 (Red Sonja) and they felt she was the best candidate for the role. Not finding success with U.S. investors, Marvel took the photos to pitch the idea overseas to find little interest there as well. Alas the only real interest found were in comic book readers who discovered the photos printed in various magazines at the time.
[edit] Other live action appearances
The British comedy The Benny Hill Show once featured a character similar to She-Hulk in a brief sketch. A young woman sexually harassed at a bus stop gets angrier and angrier until she transforms into a savage creature that exacts revenge on her harassers.
Actress Jenny McCarthy provided a similar skit for her cancelled television series The Jenny McCarthy Show, in which she increasingly becomes angry in a restaurant until she becomes a blonde She-Hulk.
[edit] Video game appearances
To date, She-Hulk's only playable appearance was in the 1997 Fantastic Four Playstation game, a side-scrolling Beat 'em up that featured her along with the rest of the Fantastic Four, a nod to her time with the group.
Evil clones of She-Hulk appeared as enemies in Marvel Super Heroes: War of the Gems.
She-Hulk appeared as a non-playable character in Capcom's Marvel Super Heroes (Arcade, Sega Saturn, Sony Playstation). She-Hulk can be seen in the background of the final level, having been turned to stone along with other heroes. In the ending video (after defeating Thanos) she and the others are shown returning to normal.
[edit] Merchandise
There have been numerous She-Hulk toys over the years, most frequently appearing in lines covering large numbers of Marvel characters such as Heroclix with other "minor" characters. Due to the previous perception of the She-Hulk as a second tier group character, many of these actions figures were just Redeco's of existing female figures that only broadly resembled the character. Her appearance in the 90's Incredible Hulk animated series and the revival of the character thanks to the recent solo series has finally lead to more care being given.
The first unique She-Hulk action figure was released among the later waves of toys produced for the The Incredible Hulk animated series. This figure was later released as an exclusive toy for ToyFare magazine (with a Redeco to give it Fantastic Four costume).
ToyFare magazine and Diamond Select Toys held a poll to decide which exclusive Marvel Select figure to release for the Wizard World 2005 conventions; She-Hulk outpaced the other four options. The figure was based upon the cover for She-Hulk #2 (2004 series). Formerly sold only to atendees of the conventions, six per customer, the figure was eventually offered for sale to specialty retailers.
Marvel Legends and Minimate versions of She-Hulk are slated for release in 2007.
