She-hulk is getting rebranded into " hulk" so while the title is canceled the book story itself is continuing ( kind what idw did eith transformers rid transition into lost light). Today though if comics arent instant sellouts they get canned. I get and understand comic companies turning characters into legacies but it doesnt mean i have to like it support it or agree with it. It also doesnt mean todays " creative teams " arent just being lazy for laziness sake either.

Now i will say i love that shot ya did. Whered ya get that marvel girl statue piece?

Oh no, you have every right not to like any character! I didn't mean that, I was just explaining that, to Marvel, legacy characters are currently outlasting original characters' series who may have existed up to 40 years before this. The main problem is probably Perlmutter's obsession with profit (which is his job, I guess) - the sooner Marvel stands by their series and keeps them going even if they aren't doing well sales wise yet have a cult following, they'll earn fans' respect back.
Right now though, they're losing loyal fans with revamp after revamp and status-quo change after status-quo change.

Truthfully I think the only difference between myself and those who aren't a fan of these diverse legacy characters (yourself included Nite, but obviously I'm not targetting you, just speaking with you), is that I'm alright having a look at any series, and if they take my fancy and I can afford it, I'll buy it. If Thor happens to be Jane Foster in it, or Logan is an older, alternative one, that's fine with me! On the opposite side, if someone doesn't like that, that's cool too, because it'll probably change in five years' time.

Oh and thanks! The Jean Grey statue is a custom using the old Hasbro Marvel Girl figure.
