. . . Nah, no thanks. I'll continue to sit X-Men comics out.
Never was big on Jean, and they really should retire who Phoenix for like . . . a decade, maybe two, for good measure.
Marvel should have left Jean Grey DEAD. It would have been better if Scott Summers remained married to Madelyne Pryor. The idea of bring back Jean the first time around is what led to whole bringing back characters from the dead abuse, such as bringing back Norman Osborn, who should have stayed dead.
I love me some Grifter, though a part of me wishes his series was still going in the mainstream DCU. I enjoyed seeing Grifter, Team 7, and Stormwatch, as well as Midnighter all getting retrofitted into the New52 DC.
This looks good though. Lee's cover isn't note for note like the image of JB. I hate Beiber as much as any man, but Cole has more of his stomach showing and has pants on. Since when do people hate on artists for using reference pics? Granted Lee shouldn't use something as mainstream as that [I always go back a few decades at least] for reference, you guys are making mountains out of ant hills. A better question would be why does it have such a bland background? Let Brett Booth come back to Wildstorm and do a cover or two for this.
Also, it's not like he\DC are hiding it at all:

I wished that Jim Lee NEVER sold Wildstorm to DC Comics in the first place.
Honestly, I can't say enough good stuff about this title so far. I love Jen and to see such a cool, fascinating new take on her character coming to life like this is fantastic. It's pretty obvious she will be a gray She-Hulk in this series, and in the same way Bruce was very different as gray Hulk, this too will reflect a different take on Jen's character. To be honest I hope they stretch this out as much as possible, and don't rush back to quickly get her back to normal, perky green Jen again.
What would be good to see is Peter Parker as a reoccurring guest...
*Sigh* I don't enjoy this new direction. She-Hulk is the only Hulk I genuinely like and one of my favorite heroes... And the She-Hulk I know is happy and fun (and occasionally breaking the 4th wall before it was cool :p I'm looking at you, Deadpool). This is not She-Hulk. Current Marvel and their decisions, man. Damn.
Why can't Marvel put Peter Parker in Jennifer's world as he's one of the few people who whose been in her situation, as well as the fact that he was once The Spider-Hulk.
For Dan Slott to leave ASM is to remove the guy whose kept him there is the first place: Nick Lowe and Joe Quesada. I feel that Slott's been writing ASM for too long, and way beyond his initial deadline, which was at the end of his Superior Spider-Man run.
I hope this is temporary. 3 issues temporary. Otherwise I'm dropping both series from my subscription. They don't have any reason to be together other than both being spiders. I would much rather Gwen expand on her own universe and Miles work on his existing relationships. This is so forced. Thank you Bendis for ruining more characters.
I think that Bendis should have left Marvel the moment when his run on the X-Men ended. The only reason to why he signed a 10-year contract extension was because Joe Quesada pull all the stops to make him do whatever he wants with no interference from Marvel. I believe that Bendis heart lies with his creator owned properties instead of superhero books. The fact that Marvel has allowed Bendis to bring Miles over to the regular Marvel Universe was their way to keep him happy as he wanted to do his Spidermen sequel. I have a feeling that Joe Quesada wants to get rid of Peter Parker and replace him with Miles Morales. This interdemensional crossover with Spider-Gwen and Miles Morales is getting out of hand. I think that Joe Quesada and Bendis, along with Dan Slott needs to leave Marvel and focus on their creator owned stuff as they are intentionally destroying Peter Parker: Spider-Man....
