I love Rowell's take on Jen in this series.
She gives a nice touch of vulnerability to Jen that works along with what I already know of She-Hulk. The use of additional secondary characters aside from her boss and Andy were fun and interesting and I like getting more scenes of Jen the lawyer. The guest stars made me laugh in this one just as seeing Jack of Hearts continuing presence had some swoony moments. That guy can be charming, witty, and apparently makes one hell of a lasagna.

One thing that kinda irked me was this one great moment of the 4th wall break somewhere in the middle that just felt a little forced. Without the comic and story keeps going just fine so to stick it where they did, took me out of the moment and made me pay attention to Jen's rant which leads nowhere but I'm intrigued to find the next installment and keep reading.

I absolutely love this series! Jen is still trying to figure out what is going on with Jack (and of course getting feelings for him), the strange green guy and the big headed girl as well. She breaks the fourth wall in this issue with is amazing! Wonderful graphics and great story. Now to wait for volume 3.

Still delightful but does fall into somewhat predictable tropes of both romance and superheroes. But it’s very charming and down-to-earth, and I’m invested in the characters, more so than most. And it’s doing something different than most titles, remaining feminist, all while having this really distinct milieu of things that maybe shouldn’t work, but just do.
