SHE-HULK IS FINISHED! She is one of my favorite superheroines because she is the symbol of a woman’s strength & power!
PURPOSE:
This is for FEMINISM - for all the women out there & for all men who love the women in their lives!!!
Women today try so hard to be thinner, lighter, smaller (& I don’t just mean in the physical sense). There are some who are ever careful not to overstep themselves because they are intimidated by men. Others feign weakness to make their male counterparts feel big. Because of this, we become LESS of what we really are.
She-Hulk reminds us what we are capable of as long as we are mindful of our strength. She reminds us to be LARGER THAN LIFE!

CHARACTER HISTORY:
She- Hulk was created by writer Stan Lee & artist John Buscema. She first appeared in Savage She-Hulk #1 on February 1980 as cousin to Bruce Banner, better known as the Incredible Hulk. She is a lawyer who served as legal counsel to various superheroes on numerous occasions.
Just to give you an idea of how massive this woman is, here are her vital statistics:
Name: Jennifer Walters
Codename: She-Hulk
Height: 5’6” (as Jennifer) 6’ 7” (as She-Hulk)
Weight: 120 lbs (as Jennifer) 650 lbs (as She-Hulk)
I’m building a comic portfolio. I’ll be illustrating 10 of my favorite super heroes & heroines in the coming weeks.
I’m starting with She-Hulk, cause she’s a whole lotta woman! When most women project frailty or are always hoping to be thinner, smaller & vulnerable; She-Hulk wants the opposite! She’s a symbol of a strong woman, who’s not afraid to be bigger, better & stronger than everybody else!
