Jack of Hearts tries to figure out how he's alive in She-Hulk #3 preview
She-Hulk battles over New York-style thin versus thick crust pizza
Some comic book stories feature superheroes battling cosmic despots in deep space, some feature urban vigilantes keeping the streets safe from criminal supervillains, and some feature magic users protecting the Earth from supernatural forces from other dimensions...
...and some comic books feature people sitting around on their couches eating pizza.
She-Hulk #3 by writer Rainbow Rowell and artist Rogê Antôniois with a cover by Jen Bartel is such a comic book.
Something of a preamble to the current 'Reckoning War' story arc currently going on in Dan Slott's Fantastic Four, She-Hulk #3 features Jennifer Walters and guest-star Jack Hart - AKA the semi-obscure superhero Jack of Hearts with the "great, overcomplicated costume" according to Kurt Busiek. The pair try to figure out how he came back to life after blowing himself up in orbit in 2004's Avengers #76 in a story written by Geoff Johns and why he was drawn to She-Hulk immediately upon his return to life.
A little short on superhero action and long on dialogue about the quality of New York City pizza, She-Hulk #3 likely features a fight or two later in the issue, but interestingly the preview may offer fans some insight into what will make She-Hulk's upcoming Disney Plus streaming series different from other Marvel properties.
She-Hulk #3 goes on sale Wednesday, April 6. Check out the preview pages, along with a Women's History variant cover by Jan Bazaldua and a Carnage Forever variant cover by Skan.
Hands down, She-Hulk is one of the best female superheroes of all time.

I'm not just the Newsarama founder and editor-in-chief, I'm also a reader. And that reference is just a little bit older than the beginning of my Newsarama journey. I founded what would become the comic book news site in 1996, and except for a brief sojourn at Marvel Comics as its marketing and communications manager in 2003, I've been writing about new comic book titles, creative changes, and occasionally offering my perspective on important industry events and developments for the 25 years since. Despite many changes to Newsarama, my passion for the medium of comic books and the characters makes the last quarter-century (it's crazy to see that in writing) time spent doing what I love most.
