SHE-HULK READING ORDER: Fantastic! (1984-1989)

She-Hulk's biggest advocate in the 1980s was undoubtedly John Byrne who, halfway through an acclaimed run, decided to replace the Thing with the She-Hulk on the Fantastic Four. The Thing's dour, orange demeanour was replaced with Jennifer Walters' upbeat, green genes as the character finally began to find her feet in the Marvel Universe and, despite her impossible strength, become the voice of the average person looking in.

Having gained her own following, She-Hulk would return to the Avengers (after two separate clashes with the X-Men) before the team disbanded due to the machinations of Ravonna Renslayer and the Council of Cross-Time Kangs. While She-Hulk could have faded into obscurity at the close of the decade, next time I'll show you how John Byrne would come to her rescue again and make her sensational! 

As always, I'd like to thank the guys over at the Marvel Chronology Project which I've used as a basis and then worked out my own version of the Marvel Universe continuity.

MCG Note:
  • Issues in blue are worth reading, are major chapters in She-Hulk's life or may play a key part in the great Marvel tapestry.
  • Issues in grey are part of She-Hulk's chronology, stories of note that aren't essential or are no longer considered 'required reading'.

MARVEL MONSTERS (2005)

One of Marvel's fifth-week events from 2005 centred around the classic Marvel Monsters that would invade the pages of Strange Tales , Journey into Mystery , Amazing Adventures , Tales to Astonish and Tales of Suspense every month, before the age of heroes. While it was an okay event at best, the four one-shots finally established that those behemoths from outer space and other dimensions did actually inhabit the Marvel Universe ! The highlight is the Hulk 's clash with Devil Dinosaur (a character who was first introduced in the 1970s), but we also found out what some of these creatures had been up to since their early '60 debuts, an untold tale of the time some of the Marvel U's more monstrous heroes gathered to fight them and, finally, the introduction of the  Fin Fang Four ! The featured stories aren't connected and most issues also featured reprints of classic Marvel Monster tales. Marvel Monsters: Devil Dinosaur #1 [1/2] Marvel Monsters: Monsters on the Prow...

THE REVENGE OF THE LADY LIBERATORS (2008-2009)

Red Hulk gave She-Hulk ( Jennifer Walters ) a humiliating beating when he invaded the SHIELD Helicarrier (during GREEN HULK/RED HULK ). Now, Shulkie's looking for revenge and to learn the identity of her rage-red attacker. And to do it, she's going to call on some of her female super-buddies from around the Marvel Universe . The Lady Liberators were originally a ploy by the Enchantress to ruin the Avenger s. Now, She-Hulk's taking the name and using it on her all-woman revenge mission....

ISLAND OF THE DAMNED (1972)

It's Halloween, so how's about a little old school werewolf action ?  Around this time, Marvel had a tendency to try new characters out in titles like Marvel Spotlight or Marvel Premiere , then give them their own series if they proved to be popular. However, the characters' first issues often carried on the story from those other books, so you'd pick up issue 1 only to find yourself in the middle of an ongoing tale (for other examples, see Captain Marvel in THE COMING OF CAPTAIN MARVEL or Adam Warlock in COUNT-DOWN FOR COUNTER-EARTH ). In the Werewolf By Night 's case, this little two-parter featuring his search for the Darkhold  would flow from Marvel Spotlight into his very own ongoing series. Jack Russell has only recently discovered his true family legacy and that Phillip Russell , the man he believed to be his father, is actually his uncle. His biological father, Baron Gregory Russoff (Phillip's brother), was a magic user and werewolf. Jack inherite...
