- The character of Jennifer Walters, aka the She-Hulk was created by writer Stan Lee and artist John Buscema. She first appeared in the first issue of her own Savage She-Hulk ongoing series in February, 1980 titled "The She-Hulk Lives". Following a twenty-five issue stint on this series, she later became part of an ensemble cast in books like The Avengers, Volume 1 and Fantastic Four, Volume 1. This led into her second series, The Sensational She-Hulk by writer & artist John Byrne in 1989. A third title, simply called She-Hulk ran for 12 issues from 2004-2005. A fourth series began in December, 2005 and ran for thirty-eight issues. She-Hulk, Volume 3 - her fifth book, ran for twelve issues from 2014-2015. Another She-Hulk book began publication in 2022.
