Jen is a fun character who's super smart but she likes being She-hulk ALL the time. Who wouldn't? Super strong, smart, and green! That's the way of life! Plus everyone loves her When she's recruited to join a new law-firm after getting kicked out of the avengers they give her one condition. She she takes on a couple of cases in volume 1 as Jen And a little she-hulk but how are the results? What I like: The fun good nature of the comic is good. I also like Jen, she's funny but not dumb funny. The art is unique and makes everyone different. I also really enjoyed the middle case which is the best one in the first volume. What I didn't like: Some characters look awful in this art. Cap looked so bad. I also dislike the pacing. It starts off good, but then slow, then fast, then really really slow. It bounces a lot. Also the last arc, or two issues, were pretty boring for me and lowered my score a bit. I still say check it out because it's good. You might even love it to be honest. For me? I thought it was okay. Some good moments but otherwise forgettable series. Shelves: graphic-novelfictiongiveaway. I felt a little stupid picking this book up, but I'd seen some good reviews, and thought I'd give it a shot. I was pleasantly surprised, enough so that I ran out and bought the next two volumes. The premise is simple. Jennifer Walters is a lawyer, and due to an accident involving gamma radiation, she can transform into the She-Hulk. But the book isn't about her fighting super-villains although she does. Bill's speech is She-Hulk by Dan Slott: the Complete Collection: Volume 1 the fact that, unlike most superheroes, Superman the hero is the secret identity, while Clark Kent is the disguise. Jen Walters provides another unique perspective on this kind of duality because her secret identity is common knowledge. So the relationship between Jen and She-Hulk isn't a question of disguise, but rather an She-Hulk by Dan Slott: the Complete Collection: Volume 1 of identity. Who does Jen want to be? Who, for that matter, does She-Hulk want to be? There's a lot of playing around even with the notion of which one of them is the hero and which one is the normal identity, because most of the book deals with Jen being hired by a new law firm, specifically as Jen and not as She-Hulk. The book is a little goofy, and some of it doesn't work, such as the idea of a law library made up of comic books. It might have worked as a throwaway joke, but too much effort is wasted trying to justify it. And the format is a little stale, with Jen working on cases that, surprise surprise, just happen to have a bearing on her own problems. And there's some predictable fighting. Or at least, it does for Volume One. Jul 07, Amanda rated it it was amazing Shelves: fictioncomics. Loved this. It's fun, and it seems like a lot of comics are in a competition to see who can be the most dark and Christopher-Nolan-influenced. This reminded me of Stephanie Brown's Batgirl series, which is what got me into comics. This is among the reasons I'm much more into Marvel these days - that and Marvel doesn't seem hell-bent on destroying all its good female characters. I really enjoyed Jen as a cha Loved this. I really enjoyed Jen as a character. I'd only read her in Fraction's FF which is great and this makes me want to continue this series.

  • Avengers Dissemble! Transmedia Superhero Franchises and Cultic Management
    Taylor 1 Avengers dissemble! Transmedia superhero franchises and cultic management Aaron Taylor, University of Lethbridge Abstract Through a case study of The Avengers (2012) and other recently adapted Marvel Entertainment properties, it will be demonstrated that the reimagined, rebooted and serialized intermedial text is fundamentally fan oriented: a deliberately structured and marketed invitation to certain niche audiences to engage in comparative activities. That is, its preferred spectators are often those opinionated and outspoken fan cultures whose familiarity with the texts is addressed and whose influence within a more dispersed film- going community is acknowledged, courted and potentially colonized. These superhero franchises – neither remakes nor adaptations in the familiar sense – are also paradigmatic byproducts of an adaptive management system that is possible through the appropriation of the economics of continuity and the co-option of online cultic networking. In short, blockbuster intermediality is not only indicative of the economics of post-literary adaptation, but it also exemplifies a corporate strategy that aims for the strategic co- option of potentially unruly niche audiences. Keywords Marvel Comics superheroes post-cinematic adaptations Taylor 2 fandom transmedia cult cinema It is possible to identify a number of recent corporate trends that represent a paradigmatic shift in Hollywood’s attitudes towards and manufacturing of big budget adaptations. These contemporary blockbusters exemplify the new industrial logic of transmedia franchises – serially produced films with a shared diegetic universe that can extend within and beyond the cinematic medium into correlated media texts. Consequently, the narrative comprehension of single entries within such franchises requires an increasing degree of media literacy or at least a residual awareness of the intended interrelations between correlated media products.
