I'm sure she will. And if she doesn't, they'll probably resurrect her. This is comics, after all. :)

Oh yes. Captain America was one of the high profile ones. That actually made mainstream news, like the Death of Superman in... I don't know what decade that was. Oh, Batman, too. That one's more recent. Oh, Ben Grimm of the Fantastic Four has died. So has She-Hulk, a couple of times. Um, let's see... Thanos kills half the Marvel Universe in one major "event," and that includes lots of superheroes. Back in the Green Lantern part of the DC Multiverse, there have been multiple high-profile resurrections, but I haven't followed that...

Really, comic book death is kind of a joke.

Actually, there are about three She-Hulks now. XD It's... complicated. But they're all different characters, so that's good. I can't believe I know this stuff.

They may have resurrected Bruce Wayne by now, but... he may still be lost in time. (As far as I know he's not actually dead.) I really don't follow that, though what I know from reading Batgirl, the Batman running around Gotham in comics right now is not Bruce.

Oh I see... resurrected Bruce Wayne doesn't seem so awesome though.

Comics can be. They get to be pretty soap-operaish, actually. Soap operas with superheroes. (Actual daytime soaps with superpowers don't work nearly as well. Really, Marvel and Guiding Light kinda had a crossover a couple of years ago, and it worked about as well as you'd expect.)

My, how the comics have changed.

Well, they've been going on for decades. The drawing, inking, coloring, lettering, printing tech, distribution... it's all changed a lot since Superman first graced the pages of Action Comics. And the zeitgeist has changed, too. The political climate. And the stories do change with the times. They have to! :)

And thank you! I've been looking forward to making it. Eyes of the Wild's not a bad thought. I might just try them out! The Retrobot eyes look pretty cool with this mask, too.

Do you have one? I can lend you mine for a while. C:

I do have one, but thank you! (Can't for the life of me remember what, exactly, I wanted them for, but... well, they're useful.)

Yes, they're a bit of an addiction. :) Though I'm weaning myself off of them. Or at least, off of the superhero monthlies and onto the trades. Collected, they're much easier to store. (And partly, I'm just less interested in the major story lines right now.)

Azntwins: Well, the Fantastic Four is my favorite team, and I don't think I can really choose among them. Um, She-Hulk (the original) is definitely a favorite character of mine. Oh, also Hawkeye. Clint, not Kate. Of the DC superheroes, Manhunter (Kate), Power Girl, and Blue Beetle (Jaime).

sweetly25: Absolutely! I'll start the trade.

She-Hulk is definitely big and green, but she's not a monster. More of an Amazon. Great character, though, especially after John Byrne started writing her. Um, she actually took the place of The Thing in the FF for a while. During the Byrne run.

Thank you, too, Sweetly! :) Enjoy 'em!

A lot of people do, and you get some... odd fan art because of it. (Google at your own risk.) Um, I actually like the TV Tropes article better than the Wikipedia one. Here: She Hulk - Television Tropes & Idioms

Most of the time, yes. XD Something tells me an ugly She-Hulk would not sell as well.

Hm. Yes, that trope seems about right. See also, Power Girl. Both seem to be vulnerable to cleavage jokes. Luckily the characters are good at not taking themselves seriously, and tend to brush those off. (Not saying this is a good thing, but it is what it is.)

Haha, probably not. xDD
Then again, they wouldn't have 3 of them would they?

LOL! It says that the artist Wally Wood drew her boobs bigger every issue. That's hilarious! xDD

Yeah. And her costume has a boob window. It is there to stay. And it remains a running gag that her breasts are a distraction for men. It... Wow. We're still talking about this. :lol: Moving along.

Um, no idea how long the other two She-Hulks will last, though. Jen's a Stan Lee creation and has been around since the late '80s, I think. Of the others, there's Lyra, who is the offspring of Hulk and Thundra. More of a test tube baby from an alternate future, really. Long story. But genetically she's Hulk's daughter, at least. And then there's Betty Ross, a character old as the Hulk, but who just recently got turned into a Red She-Hulk. Again, complicated.
