Found this online:“It's good, but it's also Byrne at his cringiest in some parts. It's well-known that Byrne was obsessed with She-Hulk to the point where she was almost his muse. That's not necessarily a problem, but when given more lax standards of a 1980s Marvel graphic novel, Byrne took the opportunity to draw in a She-Hulk nip-slip and a scene where she was given an invasive full body search by SHIELD agents. “I still enjoy most of the book, but some of it did not age well.” The “nip-slip” came from the inker, and as I recall the cavity search was interrupted. Neither raised any eyebrows at the time. The ability to post freely on the world wide web has turned too many fanboys into snowflakes.

Neither should raise any eyebrows now. Just another nobody looking for something to complain about and tear someone else down in the process.

(Still pissed this wasn’t included in the FF by JB Omnibus Vol 2.)

Just checked. The strip search was interrupted. Then after she’s “examined” by Levine and after she says she’s been “poked and prodded and probed” in places she didn’t know she had.
So, I guess that would be the “cavity search” that was brought up. Still nothing to complain about, tho.

The best comment Mike Tyson ever made was, "Social media made y'all way too comfortable with disrespecting people and not getting punched in the face for it."

One of the best stories of one of my favorite characters, due almost entirely to JB's bringing her into FF and then her own book.

Mike Tyson is a convicted sex offender, violent idiot even in his 50s, and nothing he says should be quoted as wisdom.

Never said Tyson isn't a piece of shit. Doesn't make him wrong. Would love to see him annihilate an interwebs troll IRL.

Aaron Sorkin said the internet has given everyone a turn at the mic, but not everyone has EARNED a turn at the mic. This is especially evident in those minibrains who lob an opinion into an online conversation and then walk away. An statement expressed with no thought to whether anyone will disagree.

A bit further on that nip-slip. Most readers think every line on the page starts with the penciller, and few take the time to wonder what the inker might have “added”.This is how some fans came to the conclusion that I was a big Popeye fan. I have enjoyed Popeye over the years, but his appearances in X-Men crowd scenes came from Terry Austin. This started to become an issue, generally, after Steranko published his excellent HISTORY OF COMICS, where he touched on how artists of yore would often include in-jokes in the backgrounds. A later generation (mine) seized on this. Sometimes to inappropriate extremes.

Well, somebody is sure going to have to go through his She-Hulk graphic novel tonight.
My favorite scene? "So what's the bad news?"

And today we have Game Of Thrones. Exactly what does he means ’haven’t aged well’? Today’s entertainment is borderline pornographic. Give me good old comics any day…
