I remember reading this when it first came out and laughing out loud! Great stuff!

Nostalgia to the face…ow. I’m not sure what tickles me more — breaking the fourth wall, the jokes, or remembering actually using order forms like this.

I’d like to see this as part of “The Essential She-Hulk, Volume Two”, myself.

(And I’ve been pushing for “Essential Quasar” for three years now.)

It was good, but didn’t hit *great* untill the Iron Man lyrics.

…Wait, did that ‘Nam joke sneak past the Comics Code? Or was the Eighties late enough that you could mention drugs being taken by non-child-rapists outside of A Very Special issues?

I like the bit where Byrne gets shook over Giffen and DeMatteis’ Justice League.

It's funny, indeed, but is it... Sterankotacular?

I think the two-pages spreads in Nextwave #11 were funnier. But yes, this is a classic.

Ahh.. Saturdaze.. when She-hulk fought Dr Bong. I think I still have that issue somewhere.

I always loved the Iron Man lyrics for the Spider-Man cartoon theme.

Marvel really needs to do a series of She-Hulk Visionaries: John Byrne trades.

And speaking of Gruenwald, I’d love a Captain America Visionaries: Mark Gruenwald series, and a Quasar Classics series as well.

I don’t remember reading the jokes when this came out. That is hilarious. My favorite was the bit about Gruenwald nearly being boss. Has Byrne attacked him post-humously, BTW?
