Summary:

Jennifer Walters has been working very hard to create a new version of normal for herself. She has a job. She has an apartment. She has a fight club. She even has a steady boyfriend. Yet the rest of the Marvel universe can't seem to leave her alone.

Then there's Jack of Hearts. The boyfriend. He's...a point of trauma in Jen's past. But he's trying to get a hold of his powers (so he doesn't eat hers). It's complicated.

Review:

Wow. There's a lot to unpack from She-Hulk Vol. 4. We have hero-drama, friend-drama, relationship-drama, and even Hulk-drama. Drama is apparently the name of the game in this volume, and that's a bit of good and bad.

I won't go into all of the drama details because that would spoil it. But I will say that there were tense moments and thought-provoking implications, and overall, it was a delightful read. There's no denying that Jen is a human under her costume, and moments like these remind us of that.

Despite the drama, She-Hulk Vol. 4 is a fun and relaxing read. I've really enjoyed the series as a whole. It's been nice to have She-Hulk back, front-and-center. I know it isn't going to last, but still!

Highlights:
She-Hulk
Relationship Drama
Hulk Dramas (lot of that)
Lots of Cameos
