4.3 stars.

Stealth one of my favourite ongoing Marvel titles, Jen trying to balance her Single Career Gal in the City with her Super-heroic obligations is evergreen storytelling material.

Also, the art is indeed consistently Jen-sational, it really strikes the right tone and she looks both strong and feminine while the supporting cast are also well designed and appropriately expressive.

Will certainly continue reading!

Rainbow Rowell's She-Hulk is like a breath of fresh air. Great artwork and writing. Hope there is going to be more!
Recommend.

[Matthew Ward · Rating 4 out of 5]

A very enjoyable end to this She-Hulk run. This was a great look at a superhero struggling with everyday life things while not saving the world. This one was over the top at times, but also very grounded in emotion, as well. Balanced really well. Solid final volume here for a pretty solid comic run.

[Adam Fisher · Rating 4 out of 5]

Rainbow Rowell continues her wonderful run on She-Hulk and sets Jen up for an interesting future.
Two main storylines here:
1) Jen and Jack decide to take a vacation and they go to Club Sol, a resort for all species near to the Sun. Jen meets Ganymede at the bar and as they strike up a friendship, it is revealed that her and Jack are lovers destined to be together. Some fights with mobsters happen and a lover's spat, but Jack ultimately decides he loves Jen (and she him) and he breaks things off with Ganymede.
2) Once back on Earth, Jen must make a decision about her career: stay a lawyer, helping to run a larger firm with more clients then ever OR join the Avengers and become Captain Marvel's Lieutenant and right hand... it doesn't fully resolve, leaving the answers for a Volume 6, or possibly in the pages of The Avengers... I guess I'll find out soon enough.

Again, recommend. You really should be reading this entire run.

A fun continuation of the series, still loving the art and the story being told. Of course a space vacation goes wrong for She-Hulk.

4.5 stars

I'll review it later, but this was the perfect ending for this series. I already miss these characters.

[Dakota Morgan · Rating 4 out of 5]

Marvel! I demand that you give me more superhero romances! At least, as long as they're on par with Rainbow Rowell's She-Hulk run. All In features Jennifer and her radioactive paramour, Jack of Hearts, finally figuring out whether they're like exclusive. It's a pretty classic romantic comedy setup, including the old love of Jack's returning unexpectedly, just when he and Jen were on the cusp of having The Big Talk. Of course, it all takes place on a space station circling the Sun and also features a knockout fight with some alien scum.

And then, as icing on the cake, we get to see Jen explore work/life balance issues as she's invited onto the Avengers team. Fantastically fun stuff all around. This is the down-to-earth superhero series to beat right now. I'm going to be so mad if this truly is the end of Rowell's run on this series. They've faked us out before!

Jen gets suspended from work...and suggested by Jack go on a mini break in space..
romance! chicken tenders! umbrella drinks!
all goes well...till a woman from Jack's past turns up ready to pick up from where they left off.

Later Carol Danvers tries to convince Jen the Avengers need her..

I'm assuming the ALL IN is a dig at DC ..

Lots of fun.

[Khurram · Rating 3 out of 5]

I wanted to give this book 3.5 stars, partly for Mt bias of really liking the She-Hulk character, but there is way too much drama for me to round this book up. Despite the drama, the book is so fast-paced that it almost turned into a quick read.

I really like She-Hulk always wanting to help people and the fact that she will always do the right thing mo matter how painful it would be for her (emotionally, physically, or career wise) makes her even more likable.

She-Hulk and Jack are going on a "mini break." What could go wrong? Then She-Hulk is being pulled in several directions, I am actually feeling stressed for her. I think this is actually the downside of this book. There are too many things going on, and there is not enough time devoted to any of them. She is just pulled from one situation to another. The book finishes with a thumbnail varient covers gallery.

Ágil y entretenido, se extrañará

[Jennifer · Rating 4 out of 5]

This is Volume 5 of the She-Hulk series of comics.

In this edition Jennifer and Jack go on a romantic vacation in space. I loved that part of the story.

The other main part of the story was whether Jen should join the Avengers. I enjoy seeing She-Hulk as a lawyer. And I loved seeing her try to help people.

Overall a fun continuation of this series.

[Alex Sarll]

Ah, I'm going to miss this run, not least for how it can dig out half-forgotten cosmic adventures and obscure outcast Deviants, and use them so that they feel like natural pieces of a bittersweet (but mostly very sweet) romcom about balancing work and love, where it just happens that the work often involves gamma-powered punching. "I don't like feeling this vulnerable! It makes me feel like I need to Hulk up – even when I'm already Hulked up."

[Liz (Quirky Cat) · Rating 4 out of 5]

Summary:

Jennifer is admittedly very good at what she does - be it working as a lawyer, acting as an Avenger, you name it. Unfortunately, she’s never really felt like she has perfected that balance.

It’s also been a long time since she looked for something, or rather, someone, more permanent when it comes to her love life. So it’s safe to say that things are changing, but is She-Hulk ready to accept those changes?

Review:

I’m not going to lie; I’ve been curious to see how far the whole Jen and Jack arc would go. Naturally, I dove into my copy of She-Hulk Vol. 5. I just had to find out! This is She-Hulk, after all.

The only downside to this volume is I’m pretty sure this marks the end of yet another She-Hulk series. Or at least Rainbow Rowell’s run of She-Hulk. I wouldn’t have minded more, but I do have to admit that this was a fitting ending.

She-Hulk Vol. 5 dives all in on the “will they/won’t they” trope, all while throwing a few curveballs at us readers. It was emotional at times, tense at others, and hilarious in other moments. In other words, it’s a solid She-Hulk tale.

I love that some of Jack’s backstory came into play in this volume. A lot was getting left out, but now that feels more full circle. It helps to settle any debate about what could happen with this couple.

As always, I loved the artwork! She-Hulk Vol. 5 has some of the best colors and designs; overall, there’s a lot of energy. The fights are epic, the expressions never hold back, and it’s a lot of fun to read. I hope the artists had as much fun making it.

Highlights:
Superhero Drama
Cameos Galore
Law, Love, and Loyalty

What an epic ending this was like it starts off with Jen being suspended by Mallory because of all the legal troubles and then her and Jack going into space for a vacation and what that results in and some fun adventures there and an ex of Jack shows up and that complicates the matter lol and I love how this run plays with that element of "will they, but when will they" and it works out finally as you see them confess their love for each other and its so awesome.

I like how this run actually fleshed him out so much as a character and like really made a point to show how Jen was always circling the same thing and starting over but now she can actually move forward and I love that story with Karkas and Ransak, they are such fun characters and like I love their dynamic with Jen and the brought such great humanity.. err i mean devian-ty to the book lol, I like how in the end you see him hugging Jen. its so cute.. that moment.

I loved how even with the Avengers and all.. when they see that Jack has returned and how cold they got towards him and it shows the trouble and awkwardness Jack felt, I wish it was expanded on further and I feel they might have but this run ended very early but still it was a fun series and made me fall in love with both the characters and the art was just so adorable and complimented the writing so well. Love this whole run! <3!

[Jamie Canaves · Rating 4 out of 5]

The only reason it took me a year to read this graphic novel is that I didn’t want the series to end! If you’ve read Rainbow Rowell’s novels and you read graphic novels it’ll make sense why she’s such a perfect fit for this series. If you’ve yet to read RR, she has a unique voice that leans into pop culture fun of the 80s/90s, great quippy dialogue, and emotional relationships you root hard for.

In this run, that starts with She-Hulk, Vol. 1: Jen, Again, she writes She-Hulk/ Jennifer Walters trying to get her life back together including working as a lawyer (with a terrible boss) and trying to figure out if a romantic relationship with Jack of Hearts can work. You don’t need any knowledge on the characters etc as there are little asides with any info you may need but I do highly recommend watching the Disney+ series She-Hulk: Attorney at Law because it’s just as fun! (I think I just talked myself into a rewatch!)

--from 📚 On Reading in July 2025 (Best of)

Jen once again deals with the option of being an Avenger. Her relationship with Jonathan "Jack" Hart, a super guy who has the ability to absorb large amounts of radiation. The two go on vacation after Jennifer is suspended at work for high profile property damage while helping the Fantastic Four, iirc. Enter Jack's former love, a powerful woman with a heart still for him. Complications ensue.
My favorite line comes from a conversation between Jen and Jack after Jen receives an offer to be a full member of the Avengers squad. She questions whether he'll still want to be with her if she's an Avenger. He responds, "I'd stick with you if you joined the Sinister Six." I haven't even read any comics involving them, and yet, you better believe I wrote that line down.
For fans of She-Hulk, lawyers, and making big choices.

[Ian Raffaele · Rating 5 out of 5]

Rainbow Rowell gets She-Hulk. She writes for her exactly as longtime fans have viewed Jennifer for the past twenty years. Dan Slott really broke ground giving us a human side to She-Hulk's character; showing us a hero who was trying to balance both her superhero responsibilities while still managing her career as a lawyer. It is these types of stories that I find most relatable. I'm glad Rowell continues this approach with She-Hulk in this excellent series. Sadly, it appears that this run has ended. Still, I think Rainbow Rowell has done an excellent job in adding to the depth of Shulkie's character that shows her continued growth since the first time we saw her appear on the comic book page.

[Nevin · Rating 4 out of 5]

The conclusion of one of the best recent superhero series. It ends on a high point after the awkward volume 4. If anything, this one has too much going on, and doesn't wrap things up as neatly as I hoped. (After several pages of Jen failing to juggle her many responsibilities, the conclusion is more or less "*shrug* she can handle it if she wants to".) Still, the way it explored Jen and Jack's relationship was beautiful, it had multiple B-stories that were humorous, moving, and relevant to the overall plot, and it reminded us all that Rowell can give any ridiculous deep cut character heart. I'm looking forward to what she does next.

[Joey Nardinelli · Rating 4 out of 5]

Still pretty happy with this series by Rowell. Thus one doesn’t do a ton new — it revisits with a chunk of the primary players while nudging along the relationship between Jen and Jack, which honestly works for me since it seems to be in thoughtful, mildly attentive orientation to their personal histories while also just being generally pretty cute. Honestly, I can imagine some people not living the Avengers tease for Jen to then turn it down, but I felt like it made sense given how interested Jen continues to be in carving out her own pocket communities amid the larger NY-based Marvel mythos. And the art continues to be effective and crisp. Love some crisp art!

[Julia Cannistra · Rating 5 out of 5]

Not My Typical Comic, but really well done

This is not my type of comic. I generally like She-hulk better when it’s more comedic. There is some comedy here, but it’s more subdued. The story is more of a fun romance with some action, drama, and comedic elements.

The writing is good throughout this series and this volume is no exception.

The art is really good, especially the faces and expressions. You can see the nuances of emotions in each panel and they synch up great with the dialogue.

This appears to be the final volume end of this team’s She-hulk run.

A collection of alternate covers are included as well, but unfortunately they aren’t full sized.

[Craig · Rating 4 out of 5]

I've been kind of resistant to all the lovey-dovey stuff going on in this series, but I have to admit that this one finished pretty strong (I really loved the part where Karkas and Ransak go before the coop board to rent an apartment next to Jen's). Jen has to decide if she wants to continue being a lawyer with Mallory Book or if she wants to go back to being an Avenger. Maybe she can do both? I guess we'll see...

[Darío · Rating 5 out of 5]

Desconozco si los superhéroes merecen ser felices, pero sin duda los lectores necesitamos estas obras.

Más allá de apocalipsis, fines del mundo, y la epicidad de batallas cósmicas, la construcción de personajes a través de pasados, presentes y esperanzas se hace vital para evitar la agonía del género.

Crear vínculos, mantener relaciones y construir sueños como antídoto a fórmulas trilladas y adrenalina prefabricada. En definitiva, un soplo de aire fresco.

[Eva B. · Rating 3 out of 5]

A bit disjointed, but I'll always love Jen--plus this made me want to pick up some of Jack and Ganymede's old stories.
I can't not point this out, though, because of who I am as a person--Tony Stark didn't 'start' the Avengers. Yeah, he was a founding member, but the idea for a team of heroes and the name itself came from Hank Pym and Janet Van Dyne.

[Allison · Rating 5 out of 5]

I couldn't put off finishing this series any longer--as much as I wish I could. Rainbow Rowell, you will always be famous.

And Jennifer Walters, may you always be happy.

Goodbye to the comics that defined my college career 💕 I miss running around to four different comic book stores every month. You really did make it worth it

[Juan Francisco · Rating 5 out of 5]

Despedida agridulce, una pena que terminara está colección. Se nota que Rowell estaba disfrutando de escribir Hulka. Y yo me lo estaba fumando muy alegremente. Esta etapa puede haberte gustado más o menos, pero sin lugar a dudas ha sido algo muy especial y lleno de amor por el personaje. Maldita seas Marvel.

[Kareena · Rating 4 out of 5]

I like Jen a lot. She's dealing with so much but manages to always come back to herself! Jack annoyed me this whole time. He got better but was still frustrating at times. I appreciated the way Jen handled the issues with her work and balancing her time. It had a pretty abrupt ending, which was disappointing. But overall, a great run.

[Rae Murphy · Rating 5 out of 5]

What a beautiful way for Rainbow to end this series.

I'm so sad she won't be writing more, but I enjoyed She-Hulk's story so much and getting to know Jack of Hearts was a treat.

What a wonderful series!

[Velhala · Rating 5 out of 5]

(sigh) over too soon if you ask me — great way to wrap it up tho. Also just to say it: so awesome how many great call backs to comics of yesteryears where in this series. Loved seeing all the characters Rainbow brought in get some continuations on their stories — really good continuations too!
