She-Hulk #27

I really want to say something nice about She-Hulk #27, so how's this: the opening two-and-a-half pages are really good. Also, the jail scene in the middle of the book is cute.

Otherwise, it's just sort of lame. It's not just She-Hulk that's lame, either. The quality level of several of this week's Marvel books was just not what it ought to be. As an example, the Ultimate line has turned to garbage, with the exception of Ultimate Spider-Man and partial exception of Ultimate X-Men. I've been buying the whole line for years (though I cut off Ultimates 3 after the first craptacular issue), but I decided today, after another moronic Ultimate Fantastic Four, Ultimate Iron Man and Ultimate Human that I'm just done. I'll keep buying USM from now on but that's it.

There are previews of the first few pages of She-Hulk #27 up on Comics NewsI. The dialog seems OK and Val Semeiks' art looks pretty terrific. (I'll still miss Shawn Moll, though.)

Is it possible the scripting for She-Hulk is getting better?
