Damn. David’s She Hulk was one of the few Marvel books I was sticking around for.

Abhay– not really an oxymoron. Beetle’s tie-ins tended to be both light on tie-in (”And read what happens next in Finite Crisis #6!”) and big on deft recaps (”As we join our story in progress, an evil space satellite is filled with killer robots! can Blue Beetle take them out in time?”). The Sinestro Corps tie-in was pretty much “Alien Invasion! In Texas!”

BB used the tie-ins to attract the die-hard fans of the crossovers, but in a way that didn’t alienate regular readers.

If it were a book like New Avengers or whatever, you’d have a point, though.

As huge a fan I was of it initially, I don’t find myself too sad about the She Hulk news.

I didn’t like that it got sucked into the rest of the happenings of the Marvel Universe. It worked well in its own pocket thereof.

I cared more when Shulkie was struggling being Jen and She Hulk, and they were addressing, head-on, the sexist dichotomies of the superhero world.

Now she’s running around with a Skrull blowing shit up. Eh.

“They made it easy to get into and it tied into a few of their big events ”

Oxymoron.

Boo re: She-Hulk. It’s been up and down lately, but I like that it exists.

“Who are the Dark Avengers? That’s the question that all of Marveldom is going to be asking as Secret Invasion gives way to Dark Reign. Are they clones? Doppelgangers? Future Echoes? Or something more immediate and horrifying? …”

Isn’t that the same wording used to promote Secret Invasion?
