This issue, incidentally, is an example of what I've mentioned about using
high-detail toys for reference. The earth-mover with which Mahkizmo is
clobbering She-Hulk on page 17 is one such.

UGH! None of these pages available from DOA!
This is how John Byrne artwork should always be inked... By John Byrne.
I take my two girls ( 7 and 5 ) to a local comic shop a few times a year and they always pick out children's versions of the JLA or Supergirl or something along the lines. Which is fine because among the other 10 titles of Spider-Man, 6 titles of Supergirl, or 4 titles of JLA I can't find anything I'd want them to have. This is what I would encourage them to buy if they had it.
*sigh*... I miss John's Marvel days.

This issue had it all.
I really felt this fight was up there with many of the classic Marvel battle.

JBs She-Hulk is the greatest resource for how to draw women's legs and feet ever published.

I never liked the cover, but the inking on that issue is brilliant. In fact it was hard for me to resist and not to scan the whole issue.
And of course, BTW, everybody remember THAT commission from last year (not mine, and i'm sorry about that)

Sad, isn't it? Somehow Stan Lee, Jack Kirby and Steve Ditko (and many
others) managed to produce "all ages" comics that are considered to this day
to be classics. But the Companies are so bound up in pandering to the
speculators and the 40+ basement dwellers books such as created the
"Marvel Age" can be found only as "children's versions".

I've enjoyed JB's approach to drawing She-Hulk and other female characters. They're beautiful and yet they aren't tarted-up. A kid could pick up this book and enjoy it, whereas some depictions today would get some parents worked-up.
