Book Review: She-Hulk Vol. 1 by C. Soule et al.

She-Hulk Volume 1: Law and Disorder written by Charles Soule, storytelling by Javier Pulido and Ron Wimberly, and colors by Muntsa Vicente, Rico Renzi, and Ron Wimberly

She-Hulk, aka Jennifer Walters, is at a prestigious law firm and it's time for annual reviews. She's put in almost 3000 billable hours. She feels she's a lock for a raise and bonus. The partners have a different perspective--they wanted her to bring in some superhero business to expand their services. She likes to keep her superhero life and her legal life separate, so they part less than amicably. The law firm lets her take one file, the Blue File about a suit against her and a few other superheroes and villains. She-Hulk sets up her own practice, hoping to get everyday clients. While she's not on other cases, she'll look into the Blue File. Unfortunately, her first client is Doctor Doom's son. He wants political asylum in America rather than go back to Latveria and be his father's puppet. No other lawyers in town want the case, probably because of looming Doombots.

The story is entertaining enough. The art is a hodge-podge. It starts okay but the second artist doesn't have a good knack for drawing people and it becomes distracting. The overarching Blue File plot does not make some forward progress but not quite enough. Maybe it will pick up in the next issue?

Mildly recommended.
