!!! '''Alter Ego:''' Jennifer Susan "Jen" Walters
!!! '''Notable Aliases:''' Hulk
!!! '''Debut:''' ''Savage She-Hulk'' Vol. 1 #1 (February 1980)

After being shot by mobsters, Jennifer Walter received a life-saving blood transfusion from her cousin Bruce Banner, aka The Hulk. Due to Banner's irradiated blood, Jennifer gained the ability to transform into the Sensational She-Hulk.

* AbortedArc: A [[LampshadeHanging lampshade was hung]] on it in the penultimate issue of Dan Slott's run, in which the characters were forced under threat of death to give the reader a high speed run-through of how all the arcs were ''intended'' to have worked out, before being interrupted by the ComicBook/CivilWar and Comicbook/WorldWarHulk crossover events.
* AdrenalineMakeover: Though it's not adrenaline that does it so much as deadly radiation. It's played within more recent stories, where she starts taking her normal meek persona more seriously and comes out of her shell as Jen as well, without letting her hair down or taking off the glasses.
* AmoralAttorney: Averted, although facing a seven-foot-tall Amazon with green skin on a witness stand can be ''very'' intimidating...
* {{Archnemesis}}: Titania, a [[TheBrute fellow]] AmazonianBeauty and longstanding foe of Jen's. Notably, she may be the ''only'' female on Earth to rival She-Hulk in terms of [[SuperStrength power]] and [[SuperToughness durability]] (she, like Jen, can also augment her strength level through [[TrainingFromHell rigorous, prolonged weight-lifting training]]). See also: EvilCounterpart.
* BattleInTheCenterOfTheMind: Invoked in ''ComicBook/TheAvengers (2018) #20'', which opens with Jennifer Walters presiding as judge over a court case in which the classic She-Hulk debates the new "Hulk" form over whether or not she deserves to be the dominant She-Hulk identity, which dissolves into an outright brawl between the two as classic She-Hulk demands "Hulk" be erased from existence. It's then revealed that this is actually Jen using technology in the new Celestial corpse-turned-Avengers [=HQ=] to engage in "psychoactive calisthenics" to try and gain better control over her new identity.
* BetweenMyLegs: [[http://farm4.static.flickr.com/3442/3290044053_f044aaf10b.jpg The cover]] of ''Savage She-Hulk'' #2.
* BewareTheNiceOnes: A lot nicer than Bruce, but also scary when angry.
* [[BigSisterInstinct Big Cousin Instinct]]: She's very protective of her cousin and can go in a rage if something happens to him. Like when she found out Iron Man and his team had exiled him into space.
* BigEater: One at least one occasion her arms are full of hot dogs for a meal.
* BoobsOfSteel: The bustiest superheroine in the Marvel universe, she is also one of, if not the strongest woman in the Marvel universe.
* BoxingLessonsForSuperman: While she was training to fight the Champion. Even more relevant to the trope, she trained in her ''human'' form, so that when she [[HulkingOut Hulked Out]], she would be exponentially stronger.
* BrawnHilda: Though known for being one of Marvel's [[AmazonianBeauty Amazonian Beauties]], Jennifer's She-Hulk form has gone through some instances of hulking further out into savage looks, usually in times of uncontrolled stress.
** Her Celestial-empowered "Hulk" look from Jason Aaron's Avengers (2018) is a long-running variant, sporting wild black hair, a bodybuilder build compared to her cousin Bruce, and primal posture. Although just how monstrous it looks is another case of DependingOnTheArtist, it's very much ''not'' her traditional giant green super-model form.
** Her second gray form, also referred to as "Hulk" from Mariko Tamaki's run, had a physique similar almost like her aforementioned successor. Wild hairstyle as well, but came with contrasting bright green skin tearings littered throughout her body matching her dark scowling look.
* BreakingTheFourthWall: One of Jen's superpowers, though whether she gets it from [[ILoveNuclearPower gamma radiation]] is anyone's guess. Since her own title isn't as much of a GagSeries as it used to be, she doesn't do it that often, but one memorable scene in an early '00s run has her address the narrator while her supporting cast watches her apparently talk to herself. In her 100th issue, she is asked whether she really can see through the fourth wall, and she responds "No, I can't" - looking straight at the reader and smiling.
** In another example, she actually crushes a narration box out of anger (she'd just been attacked) and tosses it out the window, nearly hitting Spider-Man!
* UsefulNotes/{{The Bronze Age|OfComicBooks}}: She-Hulk was created firmly in the Bronze Age. She shares this with ComicBook/SpiderWoman and ComicBook/MsMarvel, since {{Distaff Counterpart}}s were all the rage in that era.
* BunnyEarsLawyer: Often as an actual lawyer at that. She's also worked for a Bunny Ears Law ''Firm''.
* CerebusRetcon: The ''Immortal She-Hulk'' one-shot adds some elements to She-Hulk's new "Hulk" form that have actually won over some of the readers that thought the change in personality caused by a near-death experience didn't make sense when Jen has almost died a bunch of times. It's revealed that [[spoiler:like all gamma mutates, Jen had a green door inside of her and in fact was killed by Thanos but came back to life because of the green door and the Below Place. Brian Banner confirms that Jen has died, come through, and gone back to the living world before, when she was first shot. It's explained that Jen's new personality is because, while she doesn't remember being in the Below Place, the trauma of her death, Bruce's death, and shortly thereafter facing the [[EldritchAbomination One]] [[AntiGod Below]] [[OmnicidalManiac All]] in Hell at the lowest point of creation warped her subconsciously.]]
* CharlesAtlasSuperpower: Played with. She-Hulks strength (for the most part) is proportional to how strong her base human form is. So the stronger Jennifer Walters is, the stronger She-Hulk is. Thanks to an intense training regime she put herself through to fight The Champion, Jennifer became so fit in her human form that when she became She-Hulk again she was several magnitudes stronger than before.
* CheekCopy: Once was fired for this, mostly because it broke the copier. She was busted because when she protested it could have been anyone, the boss explains it was a 'color' copier.
* CosmeticAward: Titania, armed with the gem of infinite power, is too much for She-Hulk, but can't see her when she's in human form, [[AWizardDidIt because of an enchantment of the Scarlet Witch]]. So, how can she beat her? She requested the aid of fanboys at a comic book store, who figured out the working of the gems and received a glitzy and glamorous [[CosmeticAward No-Prize]].
* CourtroomAntics: When at her best, Jennifer basically fills the role of WesternAnimation/HarveyBirdmanAttorneyAtLaw set in the MarvelUniverse.
* CursedWithAwesome: Shortly before the start of Sensational She-Hulk, She-Hulk was "gene-locked" following the events of her graphic novel, resulting in her permanently being big and green. She was completely unfazed by this -- but when Dan Slott took on the 3rd run of her solo title, he retconned the condition to being a purely psychological one. Either way, she ''likes'' being a superstrong, sexy, vivacious bombshell. Go figure.
* DeadpanSnarker: Jen [[DependingOnTheWriter sometimes]] exhibits signs of this. She's usually this mostly when she's in a group (usually Comicbook/{{the Avengers}} or [[AmazonBrigade Lady Liberators]]).
* DeathIsCheap: In the opening act of ''Civil War II'', she's fatally wounded in a fight with Thanos (between various writers, it ping-ponged between whether she was OnlyMostlyDead or actually died. Currently, it stands as her having actually died, but quickly revived thanks to ResurrectiveImmortality .) In ''Empyre'', [[spoiler:she's killed by a Cotati, which lasts for a short while until it's removed.]]
* DependingOnTheArtist: During her Savage incarnation, she was statuesque with the vague hint of muscle tone but with wild hair. Under John Byrne she morphed into a green supermodel with massive 80s hair. During Dan Slott's run, Juan Bobillo gave her more bulk but because of his style, she often appeared pudgy rather than muscular. When PAD took over the title, Jen was consistently shown to be both tall and impressively muscular in her Hulk form -- a trend that has been followed since the discontinuation of her solo title.
* DependingOnTheWriter: She's been an exact female copy of the Hulk, a FourthWall [[BreakingTheFourthWall Breaker]], FunPersonified, and even downright serious.
* DistaffCounterpart:
** Supposedly, She-Hulk was spawned as a direct consequence of a ''Series/TheBennyHillShow'' clip that involved a woman getting big and green and bursting out of her clothes -- She-Hulk being the response to ensure they had a copyright on the character. [[http://goodcomics.comicbookresources.com/2015/01/30/comic-book-legends-revealed-508/#more-181041 But Comic Book Resources has debunked this story.]]
** The rumor at the time was that CBS was planning a spin-off of the wildly successful Hulk series based on a female version of the Hulk. Marvel assumed CBS would still have to pay royalties, until ''The Benny Hill Show'' sketch came along (again, as noted above, this has been debunked, mainly because the Benny Hill sketch appeared one year after She-Hulk's debut). When Marvel's lawyers confirmed that Marvel wouldn't see a red cent from CBS should they go forward with their plans, they couldn't rush the first issue of She-Hulk out fast enough. The whole thing ended up being moot anyway, since CBS didn't go through with the spin-off for fear of being labeled "The Superhero Network".
** Taken UptoEleven during Jason Aaron's "Hulk" run, where Jen gets a new form that looks more like her cousin, picks up his bad temper and some of his angstiness, and likewise reverts to his [[HulkSpeak iconic speech patterns]].
* DoesNotLikeShoes: [[ZigZaggedTrope Zigzagged]], much like the rest of her costume. When she puts an uniform on in advance, she usually wears them.
* DrowningMySorrows: In the 2014 She-Hulk, Jen hangs out in a lawyer bar to drown her sorrows after losing a really high-paying job. Considering she was still lucid after two doubles, she may have more work than most given her gamma-enhanced metabolism.
** Explicitly shown in the first issue of the Slott series. She-Hulk spends a night drowning her sorrows after losing her job and getting kicked out of Avengers Mansion. Holden Holliway, lawyer extraordinaire, shows up to offer her a dream job, but only as Jennifer Walters - not as the She-Hulk. She takes him up on the challenge and un-Hulkifies immediately. She loses her gamma metabolism and about 300 pounds of body mass without changing the amount of alcohol in her system. The result is going from mildly melancholy to passed-out-drunk in the space of three panels, pausing only to puke all over Holliway's shoes on her way down.
* EffortlessAmazonianLift: As a RunningGag, no less.
* EmbarrassingNickname: Do ''not'' call her "Shulkie". She even gets mad at Ben Grimm for calling her that. (And ''him'' she ''likes''.)
* EthicalSlut: Jennifer Walters aka She-Hulk is one of the nicest, most idealistic characters in the Marvel Universe, enjoys sleeping with others, and has one of the longest lists of partners of anyone in the MU. Note that this is only in her She-Hulk form.
* EvilCounterpart: Titania and Red She-Hulk. However, Titania didn't start out as evil at all (at least according to her flashback arc), just severely victimized, out of options, [[SmugSuper severely personality-changed]] by Doctor Doom's machine, and had fallen into bad company. It was later that she turned into a murderous asshole. Red She-Hulk also started out nice, but had experiments performed on her mind that turned her much nastier than she used to be. Insane, arrogant, and possibly ruthless, but turns out she is more of an AntiHero as shown in her own series.
* ExpelledFromEveryOtherSchool: Southpaw had been expelled from several schools before being sent to live with her grandfather, who happened to be Jennifer Walters' boss. He palms her off on She-Hulk, ostensibly so that she'll learn what it's like having to deal with someone with superpowers and poor impulse control.
* FantasticLegalWeirdness: The Dan Slott and Charles Soule runs on her solo title, in particular, concentrated on weird legal issues such as somebody suing for compensation because they didn't like the results of their accidental Superhero Origin, or Dr. Doom's son claiming political asylum after a fight with his dad.
* {{Foil}}: To her cousin.
** Bruce is rarely the one in control of his Hulk form, which is more often than not being used by one of his many, many split personalities. Jennifer is almost always in control of her She-Hulk form.
** Bruce wants more than anything to be [[IJustWantToBeNormal normal]]. Jennifer has in the past done whatever it takes to [[IJustWantToBeSpecial remain She-Hulk permanently]].
** Hulk represents everything Bruce represses about himself. She-Hulk is everything that Jennifer ever wanted to let out.
* FunPersonified: The Dan Slott series, and the ''She-Hulks'' run is also a lot of fun.
* GeniusBruiser: Jen, who helps pioneer the field of superhuman law when she's not kicking butt.
* GentleGiant: She's extremely tall and muscular (as mentioned above) and is one of the nicest characters in the Franchise/MarvelUniverse.
** Subverted with the "Hulk" identity she morphed into after ComicBook/CivilWarII, which is far more aggressive, bad-tempered and generally ticked off at the world.
* GoodBadGirl: She's one of the Marvel Universe's most openly and happily sexually active superheroines. Other characters in the story may not be so accepting. . .
* HeWhoMustNotBeSeen: Lampshaded. When she was working as a SHIELD agent after ComicBook/CivilWar, they captured the Abomination, and reported to the new head of SHIELD, a man standing in the shadows. Who complains that it is a shame that a $900,000,000 airship apparently can't have good illumination, and steps to the light. This man, [[LateArrivalSpoiler as everybody should have already known by then]], is [[spoiler:Tony Stark]].
* HelloAttorney: She is a famous lawyer. A hot green lawyer.
* HeroDoesPublicService: In one story Jen volunteers with Green Cross (an organization devoted to helping victims of the Hulk's actions) to clean up the town that she herself trashed during one of her own rampages. Initially, she works incognito, but ultimately comes out as She-Hulk to expose a woman who's trying to use She-Hulk's actions to cover up her murdering her husband.
* HilaritySues: Her third series, written by Dan Slott, began as ''WesternAnimation/{{Harvey Birdman|AttorneyAtLaw}}'' [[JustForFun/XMeetsY in the Marvel Universe]]. Hercules was sued for battery, Starfox for [[PowerPerversionPotential sexual harassment]], and [[ComicBook/SpiderMan J. Jonah Jameson]] for libel, among others. Charles Soule's series in 2014 returned to the world of superhero law for several plots, starting with Doctor Doom's son claiming political asylum in the USA.
* {{The Hero}}ine: Of the Lady Liberators.
* HollywoodLaw: Jennifer is very good lawyer, and she should be able to use that solve a lot of problems. In the ''Sensational She-Hulk'' graphic novel, she is arrested by S.H.I.E.L.D. She-Hulk asks to see the arrest warrant, only to be told that they do not need one. She is then strip-searched in front of a large number of soldiers (she asked them; [[FanService they wanted to see her jump rope naked]]). In the ''She-Hulk Ceremony, Part II'' graphic novel, a group comes to literally bulldoze the Native American Reservation where her fiancé lives, with no legal process, because laws do not protect Native Americans. In both cases, the authors wanted She-Hulk fighting a battle with her fists, and not fighting one in a courtroom, so her legal skill was rendered useless, so the legal system in Marvel Universe is modified to accommodate more action.
** The strip search incident was clearly an in-universe case of a jerkass S.H.I.E.L.D. agent breaking the rules and wasn't even done according to procedure[[note]]A S.H.I.E.L.D. strip search is supposed to be done in a private cell and performed by an agent of the same sex[[/note]]. Dum Dum Dugan was ''furious'' when he found out.
* HulkingOut: Not as much or as often as the TropeNamer, but it does happen. She used to be just like her cousin in every way but the vocabulary but this was revealed to be caused by a degenerative blood disease. Once ComicBook/{{Morbius}} treated it, Jen's transformations became easier for her to control.
* IJustWantToBeBeautiful: The 2011 run of She-Hulk showed that Jennifer may have issues concerning her normal body. She regards her regular appearance as 'plain' and 'boring', and is surprised when men would rather spend time with the mousy little brunette than her StatuesqueStunner form.
** In ''Sensational She-Hulk'' #55, a vengeful Jennifer in a savage BrawnHilda look stares back her [[WhatHaveIBecome own reflection]], spelling out "ugly". [[SubvertedTrope However]], it quickly turns she was playfully reciting U.G.L.Y by Daphne and Celeste, and ''thanks'' the artist and writer for giving her [[https://imgur.com/Z8xdLLp this rebellious look]].
** A similar subversion happens again in ''ComicBook/TheAvengers (2018) #20'', where Jennifer spends the entire issue asserting that she ''prefers'' her ugly and fearsome new "Hulk" form, because it gets her the sort of respect her cousin gets instead of being lusted after.
* IJustWantToBeSpecial: Unlike Bruce Banner, who does not want to turn into Hulk and [[IJustWantToBeNormal wants to be normal]], being She-Hulk has several advantages for Jennifer Walters: power, beauty, fame, an adventurous life, keeps her intellect and personality, etc. So, when she can, she stays as She-Hulk all the time, and when she can't, she does whatever it takes to return to that permanent state.
* IvyLeagueForEveryone: Averted, and how. Jen went to UCLA Law, which is consistently ranked #15 or #16 among U.S. law schools and is the best law school in Southern California.
* KnuckleCracking: In the 2014 title, Jennifer does this along with a PreAssKickingOneLiner.
* TheLadette: Bluntly and unapologetically sexual, loves to beat up evildoers, and in some versions also fond of booze and partying.
* LeotardOfPower: A purple and white one is her most common attire unless she's in a courtroom.
* LikeBrotherAndSister: With Bruce Banner/The Hulk. She's really protective of him too (though he usually can take care of himself). She-Hulk beat the crap out of ComicBook/IronMan after she found out he exiled Bruce into deep space.
* LonersAreFreaks: The 2011 run showed that during her college days Jennifer was so focused on her studies over partying and socializing that when she was named as valedictorian at her graduation, her classmates had no idea who she even was.
* ManOfSteelWomanOfKleenex: Inverted with John Jameson (who was depowered at the time), who did not like the idea of coitus with the superpowered She-Hulk.
-->'''Jen:''' And if things get too... you know, just use the safe word.\\
'''John:''' No kidding. I've got a few more "safe words," like "Ow!" and "Dear God!" and "crushed pelvis".
* MediumAwareness:
** The series ''The Sensational She-Hulk'' is famous for its characters' acknowledgment of the comic medium, including climbing across panel borders, referencing captions, and other related awareness.
** Parodied in an issue of ''ComicBook/DamageControl'', which made She-Hulk ''look like a lunatic who thinks she's a comic book character''. Then again, she directly responded to the text captions pointing this out, so... Does that make it a subverted parody?
** And in Marvel's short-lived ''Heroes for Hire'' series, Shulkie regularly got into arguments with the third-person narrator... until she fired him.
** In ''VideoGame/MarvelVsCapcom3'', She-Hulk has special dialogue with Deadpool [[LampshadeHanging where she mentions how popular she was in the early 90's, as well as her own habit of breaking the fourth wall]]. In another quote, she threatens to kick Deadpool's butt should there ever be a ''Marvel Vs. Capcom 4''.
* MonsterModesty: Jen is a rare {{Fanservice}} version of this trope.
* MostCommonSuperpower: One issue of Dan Slott's run established in court of law that she has the largest breasts of any MU heroine. Whether or not this is an InformedAttribute is something that [[DependingOnTheArtist varies]].
* MsFanservice: A buxom AmazonianBeauty clad in a LeotardOfPower, who gets frequent ClothingDamage and provides the page image for Fanservice.
* MuggingTheMonster: A rather humorous example happened to her after the Stamford disaster. An angry mob of anti-superhero protestors had formed outside of the courthouse where she -- as Jennifer -- was defending two surviving members of the New Warriors. One guy recognized her and grabbed her, shouting "I've got She-Hulk!" Then she hulked out and dryly asked, "Okay, you've got She-Hulk. Now what?" The response? "I. . . Uh. . . Guess I DidntThinkThisThrough."
* [[NiceGuy Nice Girl]]:
** One of the kindest and most idealistic superheroines in the Marvel Universe, along with Meggan and Kitty Pryde. This includes working as a (considerably less well-paid than corporate) public defense attorney, consistently trying to make the system work for particularly vulnerable groups in society, and running her own disaster relief organization. This on top of her general unpaid rescue work, and being one of the very least murder-happy heroes on the planet. However, her temper can get the best of her at times.
** A time-policing court once sentenced her to [[RetGone erasure]] from history, saying that in any case where she thought herself invaluable some other super-strong heroine could have filled in. The counter argument came in the form of her ''clients''. She-Hulk is rather fungible, but Jen Walters is completely irreplaceable.
* NoGuyWantsAnAmazon: Somewhat perversely, despite She-Hulk racking up the notches on the bedpost, she ends up marrying Captain John Jameson, who expresses a genuine dislike of her being She-Hulk (see ManOfSteelWomanOfKleenex above for a typical bedtime conversation between them). Jen was kind of a hypocrite, since she also had problems with his Man-wolf form because Captain John Jameson mauled one of her co-workers while in said transformation.
** Her co-worker Pug -- who had a pretty serious crush/unrequited love thing going on -- regularly seemed uncomfortable with Jennifer when she was in her She-Hulk form, actively encouraging her to remain in her normal human form. Possibly a reversal of "ManOfSteelWomanOfKleenex" concerns.
** Notably inverted near the start of one of her solo series. She takes a guy to bed after a victory party at Avengers mansion, and when she wakes up, she's reverted to Jennifer in her sleep. She desperately tries to transform into She-Hulk before the guy wakes up, stating in internal monologue that she ''hates'' the part where a guy goes to bed with the Sensational She-Hulk, and wakes up with tiny, mousey Jennifer Walters. Could be part of the ongoing exploration of Jen's own insecurities, but it's implied that she's indeed been with men who weren't as into the Jennifer Walters side of her.
** Subverted with her budding romance with ComicBook/TheMightyThor during ''ComicBook/TheAvengers (2018)'', where Thor is very much attracted to She-Hulk, and on their first date, they admit that they need to find more common ground between him and Jennifer Walters as well.
* NotablyQuickDeliberation: In the first issue of the Dan Slott series, Shulkie manages to break the record for the fastest jury deliberation in history, which is initially taken as a sign of her skills as a prosecutor. Unfortunately, the defendants convince the judge to declare a mistrial because She-Hulk saved the world on the day before the verdict came down, which they argued might have unduly influenced the jury.
* OccultLawFirm: Goodman, Lieber, Kurtzberg & Holliway specialised in supernatural law, and employed lots of different superhumans, including speedsters as messengers.
* OnceDoneNeverForgotten: Despite likely being the genuinely nicest hero on the planet, people everywhere (writers, readers, in-universe characters) keep focusing on her [[ArsonMurderAndJaywalking promiscuous sex life]].
** That goes double for the back and forth denials and seeeming-confirmations and that Jen had had sex with Juggernaut at some point in the past.
** She-Hulk was once called to the stand as a (hostile) witness for the defense of The Leader. The defense attorney (who worked at Jen's own law firm!) was seeking to prove that The Leader was not wholly responsible for his actions, as gamma radiation poisoning affects a person's personality, rather like a mind-altering substance. Jen had to go through her list of lovers as She-Hulk (which took ''quite'' some time), then as Jennifer Walters (which was all of two names). She-Hulk was supremely embarrassed, and even went on a small character arc of examining if her behavior really was all that different as She-Hulk versus as Jen. The Leader was so amused he declared it didn't matter if he got the chair, seeing Jen publicly humiliated was WorthIt.
* OmnidisciplinaryLawyer: In the Marvel Universe, Jennifer Walters, the She-Hulk, specializes in superhero law, but that includes criminal cases, civil rights law, civil suits and anything else that might come up.
* PervyPatdown: An incident when a {{Jerkass}} agent of ComicBook/{{SHIELD}} forced her to undergo a strip-search with him being the searcher in question and various other [[AllMenArePerverts male]] [=SHIELD=] agents witnessing the event.
* PokeThePoodle: [[http://3.bp.blogspot.com/-ua3w0qhlFNc/VJvQTAp35XI/AAAAAAAADjs/wrV5_fWBhC8/s1600/madasheck.jpg Her attempts]] to be a ''ComicBook/SinCity'' style anti-hero, with art by Creator/FrankMiller himself.
* PowerIncontinence: Jen's been hit with this a few times. During her stint with the Fantastic Four, she was hit with an extra dose of gamma radiation, leaving her stuck as She-Hulk for a time, something she didn't mind. In Geoff Johns' ''Avengers'' run, she catches a whiff of a mass death cloud which leaves her unable to control her Hulk form for some time (still, better than dying horribly). During ''ComicBook/AvengersDisassembled'', the Scarlet Witch losing control of her sanity and powers caused her to temporarily go Savage, causing her to rip apart Vision. Her injuries sustained by Thanos at the start of ''ComicBook/CivilWarII'', combined with the then-death of Bruce Banner, caused her to create a "Gray She-Hulk" that proved to be incredibly painful to transform into. She solved that last problem with a BattleInTheCenterOfTheMind, being able to process her grief.
** In Jason Aaron's ''Avengers'' she has returned to having less control of herself, due to a power up by a dying Celestial, which puts her on or slightly above The Hulk's base strength level though at the cost of higher intelligence while Hulked out. Unlike the previous Gray She-Hulk case Jen is actually more than okay with this turn of events, as it means she can be an even greater asset to the Avengers, and the side of good in general, than ever before. On that note her new buffer, Hulk-like form, isn't so much a new personality like Gray She-Hulk was but more her usual She-Hulk self, just minus the intelligence.
* PromotionToParent: Holden is able to get his underage granddaughter Sasha (a.k.a. "Southpaw") out of a supervillain prison on the condition that she remain in Jen's custody. Unfortunately, this doesn't do much to steer her away from delinquency.
* PunchClockHero: Quite literally. Jen is the retained legal counsel for Luke Cage and Jessica Jones and for their team, the Mighty Avengers. Which means she also joins them in battle should the need arise.
* ReallyGetsAround: Jen has unapologetically slept with a great many people, including Hercules and Iron Man. This is generally played for laughs. For example, when called to testify in a trial, this involved a list of her past sexual partners. It was several meters long, and involved hundreds of entries...
** Though the double standards do piss her off. She once asked ComicBook/IronMan why no one gave him crap for sleeping around (Iron Man being a male example of this trope)... while in bed with him.
** And then there's the ongoing fandom argument about whether she had sex with the Juggernaut, which has been retconned out and brought back in a number of times. In this case it's because Juggernaut has repeatedly tried to kill Bruce/The Hulk and many felt it was out of character for her. Especially considering that when she found out that Iron Man [[ComicBook/PlanetHulk exiled Hulk into space]] after having slept with Stark, she got really angry and beat the crap out of him. {{Wolverine}}, another character who ReallyGetsAround, actually refused Jen's advances on the basis that "He didn't want Juggernaut's sloppy seconds," although considering that Wolvie is much worse than she is, and has ''also'' tried to murder her cousin/isn't really much different from Juggernaut, according to the writer, this was simply RuleOfFunny. Then again, Wolverine and Hulk are VitriolicBestBuds.
*** [[spoiler: It was later found out that a parallel universe version of Jen had slept with the Juggernaut.]]
* ReluctantFanserviceGirl: She is often subject to embarrassing situations. One of early examples in ''ComicBook/FantasticFour'' where a paparazzo took photos of her sunbathing topless (but nobody ultimately knew it was She-Hulk due to an unwitting editor 'correcting' her green skin).
* TheRival: Her relationship with Red She-Hulk/[[spoiler:Betty Ross]] has progressed to this. They also act as [[GoodCopBadCop Good Cop (Jen) and Bad Cop (Red)]] over in ''Incredible Hulks''.
* SixthRanger: While Jen's been a part of a number of teams, she's this trope in terms of the Fantastic Four, having replaced the Thing following the original Secret Wars.
* SplitPersonalitySwitchTrigger: During an instance in Geoff John's ''Avengers'' when her powers weren't working properly, the Avengers tried subduing her without getting her angry, only for Jen to fill them in on a little detail: It wasn't ''anger'' that was making her lose control, it was ''fear''. And the Scarlet Witch just spooked her. Cue several issues of fighting before Jen could be calmed down.
* TakeThatCritics: ''ComicBook/TheAvengers (2018) #20'' is literally an entire issue dedicated to Jen mentally (and in some cases verbally) mocking and deriding all of the audience who have complained about the "Hulk" identity she developed under Jason Aaron. Highlights include a BattleInTheCenterOfTheMind where she fights off "Classic She-Hulk" who is demanding that "Hulk" persona be erased, mentally recalling the time she verbally called Bruce Banner out for admitting he envied how She-Hulk was better accepted than he was because he didn't understand that it came at the cost of sexual harassment, snapping at ComicBook/{{Deadpool}} that she prefers the freedom of being ugly and mean when he asks her why she can't go back to being fun again, and concluding that she's never felt happier with herself than she has since she underwent this transformation.
* TheyWastedAPerfectlyGoodPlot: Invoked. She-Hulk was brought before the Living Tribunal to decide a very important thing: he had found a new [[ComicBook/UltimateMarvel Ultimate universe]], and was considering erasing the Franchise/MarvelUniverse and replacing it with this new one. She-Hulk's defense, at its core, was that [[RuleOfCool her universe was more fun.]] They told her: she narrated a great cosmic story... in less than one page. [[JustifiedTrope Justified]], as the Registrator was [[TimeBomb about to explode]].
* ThouShaltNotKill: Much more averse to resorting to killing in combat than virtually any Marvel superhero around.
* TinyGuyHugeGirl: Given her size, any time she's with someone of average height counts as this.
* TurbineBlender: In one of the first issues of her third series, Jen and her associate Mallory Book are investigating the death of a man who got sucked into a jet engine. As they're looking around the test lab, someone switches the engine on and seals the lab so the two can't escape. Jen figures at the last minute that if she [[HulkOut hulks out]] and shields Book with her body they'll make it through the blades alive.

* VaporWear: In her first appearance Jennifer does not wear any underwear [[http://marvel.wikia.com/wiki/File:Savage_She-Hulk_Vol_1_11.jpg under her torn dress]].
* VitriolicBestBuds: Odd case with Red She-Hulk. Jen gets along with [[spoiler:Betty Ross]] just fine, but when she turns into Red, [[VolleyingInsults they start trading insults back and forth]].

[[caption-width-right:300:You wouldn't like her when she's calm!]]

!!! '''Notable Aliases:''' Lyra Walters
!!! '''First Appearance:''' ''Hulk: Raging Thunder'' Vol. 1 #1 (August 2008)

Hailing from Earth-8009, Lyra is the genetically engineered daughter of Thundra and the Hulk. She traveled to Earth-616 where she became an agent of A.R.M.O.R. and later joined the Defenders before enrolling at Avengers Academy.
----
* AntagonisticOffspring: She tried to commit {{Matricide}} at one point and fought her father at one point, which resulted in her promising to commit {{Patricide}}.
* AntiHeroSubstitute: Both subverted and played straight. Right after Jen's ongoing series was cancelled, ''All-New Savage She-Hulk'' was announced, with Lyra -- as a main protagonist. People were pissed, because it looked like we were going to get a DarkerAndEdgier replacement of Jen. However, as the comics ended, both She-Hulks became very good friends, Jen kept her name and become something like a {{Mentor|s}} for Lyra. Even when Jen was mysteriously PutOnABus Lyra chose to look for her, rather than simply take her place.
* BareYourMidriff: She has worn midriff-baring outfits like those of her mother.
* DoubleStandardRapeFemaleOnMale: In Hulk# 16 Lyra has several ShirtlessCaptives as her [[SexSlave Sex Slaves]]. Which is both [[BlackComedyRape played for laughs]] and even seen as OK in-universe. [[http://i.imgur.com/VuyyAo6.png She was even high fived for by guys from her world]].
* DuelToTheDeath: In the She-Hulks mini-series she suggests this to two boys who ask her out, in order to win a date.
* EvilHero: Unlike regular She-Hulk Lyra is rather violent and has acted rather villainous at times due to the world she grew up in, hence the title ''Savage She-Hulk''. She tried to change but she wasn't making much progress in adapting to Earth-616.
-->'''Lyra''': You're right. I am not Jennifer Walters. I am nothing like Jennifer Walters. Jennifer Walters is a kind woman and honorable warrior. That is why I was trying to find her. So I could learn from her. For I... [[IAmAMonster am nothing but a monster]].
* FieryRedhead: She's red-haired like her mother.
* FastballSpecial: Does this with the mutant Loa when she joined The Defenders.
* FemalesAreMoreInnocent: Hulk #16 shows Lyra creating an [[{{Matriarchy}} Enlightened Matriarchy]] when she gets trapped in a hellish nightmare dimension run by violent male demons. In only 3 days she had conquered the dimension, enslaved all the men, and put the women in charge where they embraced her as their Empress. Under their rule the dimension had stopped being the hellish nightmare it was back when the men ran it.
* FullFrontalAssault: In ''ComicBook/FallOfTheHulks'' she gets her [[ClothingDamage clothes burnt off]] in a fight with Johnny Storm (Human Torch) and defeats him while naked. This was all a part of her strategy to make him [[DistractedByTheSexy put his guard down]].
-->'''Lyra''': That was a mistake.
-->'''Johnny''': Um...not from where I'm standing.
-->'''Lyra''': They told me you had a weakness for women.
--> '''Johnny''': And that's a bad thing...WHYYYYYYYGGHH!
* HulkingOut: Averted. Her hulk form is her natural state which she was born in and can't turn human on her own and unlike the other Hulks she gets weaker the angrier she gets.
** After World War Hulks, her father had injected her with S.P.I.N. (Super-Power-Inhibiting Nanobots) Technology to negate her anger-driven power drain. This also allowed Lyra to change from Hulk to human form at will and turn into her Hulk form when angry like the rest of her family. However, this alternation was only temporary and her powers had returned to the way they were when she joined The Defenders.
* JekyllAndHyde: Averted, as unlike the rest of the Hulk family, she doesn't have a dual personality.
* LadyLand: She comes from a future where women have conquered most of the world, renaming it The United Sisterhood Republic. They have enslaved most of the males of that time and are at war with a tribe of savage men. Of course, that tribe of men enslaves women, so neither side are exactly better.
* ParentalAbandonment: Thundra had left Lyra after rising her through childhood for reasons not revealed yet. Lyra greatly resented her mother for it to the point where she wants to kill her.
* ProudWarriorRaceGuy: The reason why she acts as superhero is that she doesn't want to give up being a warrior.
* PoliticallyIncorrectHero: She is pretty sexist towards men due to her background, though she doesn't allow it to get in the way of what she does. This does depend on the writer, since in some stories have her being better and accepting that the present isn't like her future.
* PutOnABus: During the "Omega Hulk" storyline all the Hulks with the exception of Bruce, Jennifer, and Lyra were depowered. While Lyra kept her powers she was also put to the side by giving up being a hero to live in a dimension which she ruled as Empress. She eventually showed up in ''Squadron Supreme #15'', where she reunited with her mother in Weirdworld.
* SlaveRace: The men on her world. Not that they are any better.
* StrawFeminist: She views men as fools, considers the enslavement of them to be their proper place, and doesn't want much to do with her father because he is a male. None of this is surprising given how she grew up. She has her moments like sparing a boy from a male tribe on her world and even attempted to avenge a male agent as she would do any comrade, but at the end of the day she rather have women be in charge.
* SuperMode: Lyra's technique "Gamma Sight" is this, which she herself developed. This enables her to fight in a trance-like meditative state when she is completely calm and at peace. This state allows her to feel minute traces of gamma rays in every human being and use them to heighten her perception and reflexes, and possesses higher fighting skill than any of her other family members.
* SuperpowerfulGenetics: She inherited her powers from her father. As well as her mother's powers, as she overpowered Axon who had absorbed her gamma powers.
** However, it doesn't seem like she had her mother's powers in ''She-Hulks'' as she gets hurt with dodge balls in human form. But this could be due to the S.P.I.N. Bruce gave to her.
* TykeBomb: She was bred to be the Sisterhood's champion and use the power of The Hulk to win the war between the genders. Thundra had time traveled to the past to steal Hulk's DNA (via kissing), went back to her future, and gave birth to Lyra.
* WouldntHurtAChild: She couldn't bring herself to kill a boy of one of the male tribes on her world.
* YouWouldntLikeMeWhenImAngry: Yes actually, you would. As a means to keep her under control, scientists engineered her to be an inversion of this trope and get 'weaker' the angrier she gets. She must remain totally calm to use her full strength.

A long-time rival of She-Hulk and wife of the Absorbing Man.
----
* AbsoluteCleavage: Her usual attire sports this.
* AlliterativeName: 'M's.
* AllTheOtherReindeer: Bullied by pretty much everyone as a teenager. Is it any wonder when Doctor Doom offered her the chance for superpowers, she took it?
* AlwaysSomeoneBetter: Has a ''raging'' inferiority complex when it comes to She-Hulk. Creel's advice to her on this subject can be found in the Quotes section of that trope's page.
* AmazonianBeauty: Very beautiful and quite muscular.
* {{Archenemy}}: Of She-Hulk.
* BattleCouple: With the Absorbing Man.
* BoobsOfSteel: She is as strong as she is buxom.
* TheBrute: A rare female example.
* DarkActionGirl: Just as much of a brawler as Jennifer.
* EvenEvilHasLovedOnes: The Absorbing Man is her husband. She also has a VillainousFriendship with Volcana.
* EvenEvilHasStandards: She has no problem taking on superheroes, but she absolutely refuses to go after families and friends of heroes.
* EvilCounterpart: To She-Hulk. Every bit as [[StatuesqueStunner tall]], [[AmazonianBeauty buff]], [[SuperStrength strong]], and [[SuperToughness durable]] as Shulkie, and [[PluckyGirl very hotheaded]] to boot, which factors heavily into her [[FoeYay heated]] rivalry with She-Hulk.
* {{Fiery|Redhead}} EvilRedhead: She possess a fiery attitude, and is evil.
* FromNobodyToNightmare: Little Mary [=MacPherran=] went from a powerless victim of bullying to being the number one enemy of She-Hulk.
* HazyFeelTurn: After growing tired of their usual lot in life as a supervillain, she and Creel are trying to go straight. Emphasis on trying because she doesn't have any of the nobility to be an outright hero, though she's willing to take up assignments that at the least are for the public good. Whatever keeps her out of jail really.
* IJustWantToBeSpecial: Before her change, Mary wanted more than anything to be more than just the short, scrawny and utterly average person she was. So much so that she lied and claimed she was Spider-Woman to get some attention.
* InferioritySuperiorityComplex: A large factor in her enimity with Shulkie. Titania hates feeling weak (as it reminds her of childhood), so whenever Shulkie manages to get the upper hand, Titania just loses it. Inversely, when she out-muscles She-Hulk, Titania is all high and mighty and quick to rub it in her foe's face.
** In fact, Spider-Man calls her out on it, comparing her to nothing more than a cowardly bully who's true colors when she loses. After she beat She-Hulk for the first time and thought Spidey would be easy-pickings, he utterly ''crushed'' her through greater agility and experience, all while calling her out on this. It left her ''terrified'' of him.
* OddFriendship: She and Creel develop one with Eugene Judd/Puck, accepting his offer to work in the new Gamma Flight.
* OfficialCouple: With Absorbing Man.
* PurpleIsPowerful: Her outfits tend to be purple, and she's quite strong.
* SecondaryColorNemesis: She's a redhead (orange) and her outfits are almost always purple.
* SmugSuper: When you start out as an often picked-on girl who is transformed into a tall and tough Amazon thanks to Doctor Doom, it's only natural that you begin to think of yourself as superior to most.
* SpikesOfVillainy: Her costume has several spikes.
* StatuesqueStunner: Very tall, about 6'6". She's actually a couple of inches taller than Creel.
* SuperStrength: She's actually stronger than She-Hulk in her usual calm state, although that hasn't stopped She-Hulk and even Franchise/SpiderMan (during ''ComicBook/SecretWars1984'') from [[TheWorfEffect walking all over her on a few occasions]]. Regardless, the two women are among the strongest female supers in the Marvel universe, and much like She-Hulk, she can undergo TrainingFromHell to increase her already impressive strength.
* {{Tsundere}}: Type A. She's quite brash and abrasive by default, but surprisingly loving and devoted towards Creel (they tend to be overprotective of each other as a result). Titania is [[FoeYay arguably]] a {{Yandere}}[=/=]StalkerWithACrush in regards to Shulkie.
* UnholyMatrimony: Again, with Creel.
** UglyGuyHotWife: The Hot Wife to her husband's Ugly Guy.
* ViolentlyProtectiveGirlfriend: Not that Creel can't look after himself, but hurting him is a guaranteed way to make Mary ''mad''.
* WhyDidItHaveToBeSnakes: Developed an intense fear of Spider-Man after he [[CurbStompBattle curb-stomped]] her in ''Secret Wars''. It took her a few years to get over it. Ironically, Spider-Man was nervous about confronting her again, believing that he only beat her through sheer luck.
* WillNotBeAVictim: As a kid, Titania was picked on constantly. When she gained superpowers she felt truly powerful for the first time in her life and never wanted to feel weak again.

!!! '''First Appearance:''' ''Sensational She-Hulk'' #10 (December, 1989)

Clark Finark was a candidate for a Midwest congressional seat who hired Pseudonix Incorporated to manage his advertising campaign. Unfortunately, upon discovering Finark's birth certificate stated he was from the planet Veegwal - a result of his parents being on acid in the 1960s - his opponent exploited his "extraterrestrial origin" to the fullest and his campaign imploded. Finark blamed Lexing Loopner, the head of Pseudonix Incorporated, for the downfall of his political career and for contributing to society's obsession with media sensationalism and image branding. He stole Loopner's Pseudonix technology and used it to terrorize the city, necessitating She-Hulk to stop him.
----

* ClothesMakeTheSuperman: In contrast to most "evil Supermen", Finark's powers are not internalized. His strength comes from the helmet he wears.
* CorruptedCharacterCopy: Of Superman. He has Superman's first name and Midwestern origin and his enemy is a CEO. Although Loopner is an innocent if somewhat shady man.
* FishbowlHelmet: The source of his powers.
* HardLight: The Pseudonic Image technology Finark uses creates holograms that feel very real and can cause physical damage to people and the environment around him.
* MisplacedRetribution: Finark blamed Loopner for the ruination of his political career rather than his opponent who leaked the false information about him being an alien from outer space or even his parents for putting that information on his birth certificate.
* VillainHasAPoint: Louise and Jennifer acknowledge that Finark's hatred of media sensationalism and image branding wasn't entirely unjustified even if he went about proving his point in the worst way possible.
* YourMindMakesItReal: Finark's helmet is a "miniatiruzed pseudonic environment" which grant him superhuman strength as long as he believes himself to an invincible demigod.

Jasper Keaton was an old acquaintance of She-Hulk's friend Louise Mason and once worked for her father Senator Grant as his aide. He is the owner of a savings and loan company and the founder of the American Purity Foundation. When his company was in danger of being seized by the government, Keaton offered to find "Rosebud", a bomb that had been stolen in the 1940s, for a few senators in exchange for them letting him keep control of his company. In order to find the bomb, Keaton had Louise's home burglarized and then had her abducted. She-Hulk had to team up with Louise's daughter Wanda in order to save Louise and stop Keaton's plan.
----
* BitchInSheepsClothing: Keaton presents himself as a champion of wholesomeness and good moral values but is in reality a ruthless CorruptCorporateExecutive.
* CorruptCorporateExecutive: His savings and loan company was in danger of being seized by the government so he struck a deal with some senators to find the Rosebud bomb in exchange for keeping his company.
* DrivenToSuicide: Keaton tries to kill himself after his plans fail but is stopped by Wanda Mason.
* FamilyValuesVillain: He is against pornography and sex outside of marriage.
* JerkWithAHeartOfJerk: Louise remembered him as something of a jerk but was still surprised and disappointed to learn he had become a pro-censorship, moral crusader. The reveal that he's trying to blackmail the US government through force in order to save his company bumps him up from jerkass to villain.
* {{Hypocrite}}: She-Hulk's clothes are destroyed by Captain Rectitude who fired upon her on Keaton's orders. Keaton fires a string of SlutShaming insults at the naked She-Hulk even though it's really his and Captain Rectitude's fault that She-Hulk ended up in a state of nudity in the first place. He also sees pornography and sexual liberation as being responsible for the moral decay of America even though he's a CorruptCorporateExecutive who's willing to bribe senators, abduct his old boss's daughter and even detonate an atomic bomb in a city.
* MoralGuardians: Keaton founded the American Purity Foundation and led an anti-smut campaign in 1968 in a failed attempt to clean up the Haight-Ashbury district of San Francisco.
* PoliticallyIncorrectVillain: He throws a string of SlutShaming slurs at She-Hulk after her clothes are destroyed by Captain Rectitude, who blasted her on Keaton's orders.
* StrawCharacter: Keaton is an anti-sex, anti-pornography, pro-censorhip moral crusader who is also a hypocritical criminal and attempted murderer.
* WhiteHairBlackHeart: He has white hair from age and is very much an evil man.

Once an employee of Jasper Keaton's savings and loan company, Bob Jones IV underwent a genetics research experiment which granted him superpowers. He serves as the superhero mascot of the American Purity Foundation and is Jasper Keaton's right-hand man in his schemes.
----
* BlackAndWhiteInsanity: Captain Rectitude has been genetically modified to have an strong aversion to anything related to sexuality. He once suggested destroying a statue that he saw as a "salacious depiction of womanhood" and he chastised She-Hulk for wearing revealing clothing. The second one is particularly ludicrous since She-Hulk was wearing a makeshift outfit made up of banners because Captain Rectitude had destroyed her clothes.
* BloodKnight: Captain Rectitude repeatedly proposes using violence to solve solutions and is relieved when Keaton finally gives him permission to kill She-Hulk.
* FlightStrengthHeart: In addition to {{Flight}} and SuperStrength, Rectitude was genetically modified to have his normal biological drives replaced with a strong anti-smut instinct.
* FlyingBrick: He's super strong and can fly.
* HeartBeatDown: He can fire purple energy beams from the heart-shaped emblem on his chest.
* {{Irony}}: It's rather ironic that someone named Captain Rectitude ended up arrested for violating the SuperheroRegistrationAct during ''Civil War''.
* PoliticallyIncorrectVillain: Like Keaton, Captain Rectitude also makes sexist remarks towards She-Hulk.

The ruthless mobster who Jennifer Walters was prosecuting before becoming She-Hulk. His hit attempt on Walters indirectly created the She-Hulk.
----
* BadBoss: He casually kills his goons at the drop of a hat, whether to tie up loose ends or when something pisses him off. One really wonders how people still work for him.
* CreateYourOwnHero: It's because of him that Jennifer needed the transfusion from Bruce that turned her into She-Hulk. Trask's attempt on the life of one lawyer ironically ended up giving the Marvel world one of it's most beloved heroes.
* EvilGenius: He devises a number of supervillain-level schemes to take out She-Hulk, building a robot to frame her , and later a giant digging machine to steal Roxxon's Oil. He might've made a descent rival to Silvermane or Hammerhead if he were still alive.
* FauxAffablyEvil: He's courteous and polite, but this is just to disguise what a vicious, self-serving murderer he is.
* HoistByHisOwnPetard: Just when he thinks he's won, the controls of his machine malfunction and Trask is sent burrowing to his doom at the center of the Earth.
* SmallRoleBigImpact: He's only in 5 issues and is last seen plummeting beneath the earth, never to be heard from again. His actions against Jennifer Walters still led to her getting the transfusion that transformed her into a green fighting machine. We basically owe She-Hulk's existence to this man.
* StarterVillain: He's the first menace She-Hulk fought and is killed off in their first and final battle. Though to his credit, he does last a little longer than you'd expect a non-super gangster.

The second Living Eraser hails from Dimension Z, an alternate dimension inhabited by green-skinned humanoids. The denizens of Dimension Z had never developed atomic power of their own and kept trying to find ways to bring it to their dimension which also included kidnapping Earth scientists. After this plan failed, they tried simply stealing nuclear weapons but the process of interdimensional travel neutralized radioactivity. The second Living Eraser came up with the idea of kidnapping humans who had become irradiated. His target: the She-Hulk.
----
* GreenAndMean: He's from an antagonistic alien race of green-skinned humanoids.
* PurpleIsPowerful: Wears a purple outfit.
* VillainTeleportation: The Living Eraser uses devices called Dimensionizers which allow him to travel between dimensions.
[[/folder]]

* CaptainErsatz: She's basically a female AffectionateParody version of Batman, downright to backstory, gadgets, butler and costume.

* AndIMustScream: The experiment she participated in was supposed to control her PMS. Instead it left her perpetually in that condition.

----

* AdrenalineMakeover: Though it's not adrenaline that does it so much as deadly radiation. It's played with in more recent stories, where she starts taking her normal meek persona more seriously and comes out of shell as Jen as well, without letting her hair down or taking off the glasses.
* AmoralAttorney: Averted, although facing a seven-foot tall Amazon with green skin on a witness stand can be ''very'' intimidating...

* BattleInTheCenterOfTheMind: Invoked in ''ComicBook/TheAvengers (2018) #20'', which opens with Jennifer Walters presiding as judge over a court case in which the classic She-Hulk debates the new "Fem Hulk" form over whether or not she deserves to be the dominant She-Hulk identity, which dissolves into an outright brawl between the two as classic She-Hulk demands Fem Hulk be erased from existence. It's then revealed that this is actually Jen using technology in the new Celestial corpse-turned-Avengers [=HQ=] to engage in "psychoactive calisthenics" to try and gain better control over her new identity.

* CerebusRetcon: The ''Immortal She-Hulk'' one-shot adds some elements to She-Hulk's new "Fem Hulk" form that have actually won over some of the readers that thought the change in personality caused by a near-death experience didn't make sense when Jen has almost died a bunch of times. It's revealed that [[spoiler:like all gamma mutates, Jen had a green door inside of her and in fact was killed by Thanos but came back to life because of the green door and the Below Place. Brian Banner confirms that Jen has died, come through, and gone back to the living world before, when she was first shot. It's explained that Jen's new personality is because, while she doesn't remember being in the Below Place, the trauma of her death, Bruce's death, and shortly thereafter facing the [[EldritchAbomination One]] [[AntiGod Below]] [[OmnicidalManiac All]] in Hell at the lowest point of creation warped her subconsciously.]]

** Taken UptoEleven during Jason Aaron's "Fem Hulk" run, where Jen gets a new form that looks more like her cousin, picks up his bad temper and some of his angstiness, and likewise reverts to his [[HulkSpeak iconic speech patterns]].

** Subverted with the "Fem Hulk" identity she morphed into after ComicBook/CivilWarII, which is far more aggressive, bad-tempered and generally ticked off at the world.

** In ''Sensational She-Hulk'' #55, a vengeful Jennifer in a savage BrawnHilda look stares back her [[WhatIHaveIBecome own reflection]], spelling out "ugly". [[SubvertedTrope However]], it quickly turns she was playfully reciting U.G.L.Y by Daphne and Celeste, and ''thanks'' the artist and writer for giving her [[https://imgur.com/Z8xdLLp this rebellious look]].

* TakeThatCritics: ''ComicBook/TheAvengers (2018) #20'' is literally an entire issue dedicated to Jen mentally (and in some cases verbally) mocking and deriding all of the audience who have complained about the "Fem Hulk" identity she developed under Jason Aaron. Highlights include a BattleInTheCenterOfTheMind where she fights off "Classic She-Hulk" who is demanding that "Fem-Hulk" be erased, mentally recalling the time she verbally called Bruce Banner out for admitting he envied how She-Hulk was better accepted than he was because he didn't understand that it came at the cost of sexual harassment, snapping at ComicBook/{{Deadpool}} that she prefers the freedom of being ugly and mean when he asks her why she can't go back to being fun again, and concluding that she's never felt happier with herself than she has since she underwent this transformation.

Mahkizmo was ruler of Machus, a warlike alternate future Earth where women are enslaved by men untill he was defeated by the Thing and Thundra.

** Subverted in ''ComicBook/TheAvengers (2018) #20'', where Jennifer spends the entire issue asserting that she '''prefers''' her ugly and fearsome new "Fem Hulk" form, because it gets her the sort of respect her cousin gets instead of being lusted after.

* BrawnHilda: Though for being one of Marvel's [[AmazonianBeauty Amazonian Beauties]], Jennifer's She-Hulk form has gone through some instances of hulking further out into savage looks, usually in times of uncontrolled stress.

* Her Celestial-empowered "Hulk" look from Jason Aaron's Avengers (2018) is a long-running variant, sporting wild black hair, a bodybuilder build compared to her cousin Bruce, and primal posture. Although just how monstrous it looks is another case of DependingOnTheArtist, it's very much ''not'' her traditional giant green super-model form.
* Her second gray form, also referred to as "Hulk" from Mariko Tamaki's run, had a physique similar almost like her aforementioned successor. Wild hairstyle as well, but came with contrasting bright green skin tearings littered throughout her body matching her dark scowling look.

* CerebusRetcon: The ''Immortal She-Hulk'' one-shot adds some elements to She-Hulk's new "Fem Hulk" form that have actually won over some of the reader that thought the change in personality cause by a near death experience didn't make sense when Jen has almost died a bunch of times. It's revealed that [[spoiler:like all gamma mutates, Jen had a green door inside of her and in fact was killed by Thanos but came back to life because of the green door and the Below Place. Brian Banner confirms that Jen has died, come through, and gone back to the living world before, when she was first shot. It's explained that Jen's new personality is because, while she doesn't remember being in the Below Place, the trauma of her death, Bruce's death and shortly thereafter facing the [[EldritchAbomination One]] [[AntiGod Below]] [[OmnicidalManiac All]] in Hell at the lowest point of creation warped her subconsiously.]]

* DependingOnTheArtist: During her Savage incarnation, she was statuesque with the vague hint of muscle tone but with wild hair. Under John Byrne she morphed into a green super model with massive 80s hair. During Dan Slott's run, Juan Bobillo gave her more bulk but because of his style, she often appeared pudgy rather than muscular. When PAD took over the title, Jen was consistently shown to be both tall and impressively muscular in her Hulk form -- a trend which has been followed since the discontinuation of her solo title.

** Taken UptoEleven during Jason Aaron's "Fem Hulk" run, where Jen gets a {{gonk}}y new form that looks more like her cousin, picks up his bad temper and some of his angstiness, and likewise reverts to his [[HulkSpeak iconic speech patterns]].

* DrowningMySorrows: In the 2014 She-Hulk, Jen hangs out in a lawyer bar to drown her sorrows after losing a really high paying job. Considering she was still lucid after two doubles, she may have more work than most given her gamma-enhanced metabolism.

* {{Gonk}}: The post-ComicBook/CivilWarII identity she attained, which fans sometimes call "Fem Hulk", is closer in design aesthetics to She-Thing than any of the previous She-Hulks. It's essentially Bruce's Savage Hulk identity (in either gray or green) with breasts; a hulking, ogre-like figure with muscle-swollen, almost disproportionate limbs, hunched back, and heavy facial bones. Although just how monstrous it looks is another case of DependingOnTheArtist, it's very much ''not'' her traditional giant green super-model form.

* HollywoodLaw: Jennifer is very good lawyer, and she should be able to use that solve a lot of problems. In the ''Sensational She-Hulk'' graphic novel, she is arrested by S.H.I.E.L.D. She-Hulk asks to see the arrest warrant, only to be told that they do not need one. She is then strip-searched in front of a large number of soldiers (she asked them; [[FanService they wanted to see her jump rope naked]]). In the ''She-Hulk Ceremony, Part II'' graphic novel, a group comes to literally bulldoze the Native American Reservation where her fiancé lives, with no legal process, because laws do not protect Native Americans. In both cases, the authors wanted She-Hulk fighting a battle with her fists, and not fighting one in a court room, so her legal skill was rendered useless, so the legal system in Marvel Universe is modified to accommodate more action.

** The series ''The Sensational She-Hulk'' is famous for its characters' acknowledgement of the comic medium, including climbing across panel borders, referencing captions, and other related awareness.

* BareYourMidriff: She has wore midriff-baring outfits like those of her mother.

* DuelToTheDeath: In the She-Hulks mini series she suggests this to two boys who ask her out, in order to win a date.

* FullFrontalAssault: In ''ComicBook/FallOfTheHulks'' she gets her [[ClothingDamage clothes burnt off]] in a fight with Johnny Storm (Human Torch) and defeats him while naked. This was all apart of her strategy to make him [[DistractedByTheSexy put his guard down]].

* LadyLand: She comes from a future where women have conquered most of the world, renaming it The United Sisterhood Republic. They have enslaved most of the males of that time and are at war with a tribe of savage men. Of course that tribe of men enslave women, so neither side are exactly better.

* ProudWarriorRaceGuy: The reason why she acts as superhero is because she doesn't want to give up being a warrior.

* DeathIsCheap: In the opening act of ''Civil War II'', she's fatally wounded in a fight with Thanos (between various writers, it ping-ponged between whether she was OnlyMostlyDead or actually died. Currently, it stands as her having actually died, but quickly revived.) In ''Empyre'', [[spoiler:she's killed by a Cotati, which lasts for a short while until it's removed.]]

* LonersAreFreaks: The 2011 run showed that during her college days Jennifer was so focused on her studys over partying and socializing that when she was named as valedictorian at her graduation, her classmates had no idea who she even was.

* PowerIncontinence: Jen's been hit with this a few times. During her stint with the Fantastic Four, she was hit with an extra dose of gamma radiation, leaving her stuck as She-Hulk for a time, something she didn't mind. During ''ComicBook/AvengersDisassembled'', the Scarlet Witch losing control of her sanity and powers caused her to temporarily go Savage, causing her to rip apart Vision. Her injuries sustained by Thanos at the start of ''ComicBook/CivilWarII'', combined with the then-death of Bruce Banner, caused her to create a "Gray She-Hulk" that proved to be incredibly painful to transform into. She solved that last problem with a BattleInTheCenterOfTheMind, being able to process her grief.
** In Jason Aaron's Avengers she has returned to having less control of herself, due to a power up by a dying Celestial, which puts her on or slightly above The Hulk's base strength level though at the cost of higher intelligence while Hulked out. Unlike the previous Gray She-Hulk case Jen is actually more than okay with this turn of events, as it means she can be an even greater asset to the Avengers, and the side of good in general, than ever before. On that note her new buffer, Hulk-like form, isn't so much a new personality like Gray She-Hulk was but more her usual She-Hulk self, just minus the intelligence.

* CaptainErsatz: She's basically a female version of Batman, downright to backstory, gadgets, butler and costume.

* BattleInTheCenterOfTheMind: Invoked in ''ComicBook/TheAvengers (2018) #20'', which opens with Jennifer Walters presiding as judge over a court case in which the classic She-Hulk debates the new "Fem Hulk" form over whether or not she deserves to be the dominant She-Hulk identity, which dissolves into an outright brawl between the two as classic She-Hulk demands Fem Hulk be erased from existence. It's then revealed that this is actually Jen using tech in the new Celestial corpse-turned-Avengers [=HQ=] to engage in "psychoactive calisthenics" to try and gain better control over her new identity.

* BewareTheNiceOnes: She's a lot nicer than Bruce, but also scary when she is angry.

* BreakingTheFourthWall: One of Jen's super-powers, though whether she gets it from [[ILoveNuclearPower gamma radiation]] is anyone's guess. Since her own title isn't as much of a GagSeries as it used to be, she doesn't do it that often, but one memorable scene in an early '00s run has her address the narrator while her supporting cast watches her apparently talk to herself. In her 100th issue, she is asked whether she really can see through the fourth wall, and she responds "No, I can't" - looking straight at the reader and smiling.

* TheWorfEffect: As with her cousin, Jennifer often gets drafted to the role of punching bag to show how dangerous an enemy can be.

* BadassNormal: When she was a superhero. In Sensational She-Hulk, she lent a hand in saving the day from time to time.

* FormerlyFit: Louise lost her slim figure with age and lack of exercise after retiring. She temporarily regains her skinnier frame after being rejuvenated but without any superhero activity to keep her in shape, she puts on weight again.

** Though the double standards do piss her off. She once asked IronMan why no one gave him crap for sleeping around (Iron Man being a male example of this trope)... while in bed with him.

* EthicalSlut: Jennifer Walters aka She-Hulk is one of the nicest, most idealistic characters in the Marvel Universe, enjoys sleeping with others as long as it is consensual on both sides, and has one of the longest lists of partners of anyone in the MU. Note that this is only in her She-Hulk form.

* GoodBadGirl: She's one of the Marvel Universe's most openly and happily sexually active superheroines, and rarely gets slut-shamed by the narrative for enjoying casual sex. Other characters in the story may not be so accepting. . .

* OnceDoneNeverForgotten: Despite likely being the genuinely nicest hero on the planet, people everywhere (writers, readers, in-universe characters) keep focusing on her somewhat [[ArsonMurderAndJaywalking promiscuous sex life]].
