It is now time to reach right into the
really big comic book box of doom and pull out a comic book for a
random comic book review. Next on the stack today, we have She Hulk
33. In this issue, She Hulk and renegade Skrull, Jazinda, goes up
against the Super Skrull, who just happens to be Jazinda's father.
Something is going to hit the fan in this one.
She Hulk 33 Review
She Hulk Volume 2
Issue 33 was released by Marvel Comics with a cover date of November
2008 as part of Secret Invasion event going on in Marvel Comics
around that time. This issue of She Hulk was written by Peter David,
Penciled by Vincent Acunza, Colored by Barbara Ciadro, and Lettered
by David Sharpe.
A well written
issue from Peter David, She Hulk, and Marvel, one of the better
modern comic books that I read. If nothing else, it did not feel like
it was a blatant part of an event, to sucker people into buying five
million comic books and then just having to get the trade anyway to
have any sembalance of the story.
But those are
other issues, and this is She Hulk which was a rather good issue. As
we know, the Secret Invasion was the big comic book storyline that
was going on during Marvel at this time in 2008. She Hulk and her
friend, Jazinda, who just happens to be a Skrull that is against the
skrulls, is about to steal talisman. Unfortunately, this has raised
the ire of the Super Skrull and thus we lead to the events of this
issue of She Hulk.
A fascinating
issue, with some tense moments. It really does give one an insight to
how the Skrulls are portrayed. There is an entire culture not unlike
anyone else, which is really something that gets lost throughout many
comic book adaptions right over the years.
The showdown
between She Hulk and the Super Skrull was particularly a point that I
enjoyed in this comic. As well as what the Super Skrull's motivations
truly were and throughout everything, he still has some empathy and
some humanity, for lack of a better term.
I did enjoy this
issue of She Hulk. Thumbs up for this one, as it tied into Secret
Invasion without being tied down by being an event.
