1 page from Savage She-Hulk #1
So. Lyra is the future!daughter of the Hulk and Thundra. It's complicated. In her future, men and women live in separate tribes, reproduced through cloning. Lyra is sent to the past (our present), on a mission (the nature of which is not important for our purposes today), and on her way to the time travel site, she passes an 'overman burial site'.

Mr. Fantastic, Thor, Spider-Man and Captain America... drowned?

Also? Zabu!

It turns out that not only do the men worship the ancient overmen, they express their worship through extremely rustic Wolverine costumes. That's them up there on the roof. Are there any Wolverine-free Marvel comics? Sigh sigh.

	Burned shadows are a nuke thing, aren't they? My main comment on this page is actually that carnivores usually make very poor eating. Lyra should have held out for a zebra. (Reply to this) (Thread)

	Motto to the carnivore thing. That was actually going to be my comment! (Reply to this) (Parent)

	I don't know; the left arm looks way bigger than the other, which I took to indicate a hammer. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	Those little pointy things over his head have gotta be Thor, too - Strange's cape might point but not like that. (Reply to this) (Parent)

	It was a Zabu, not the Zabu. So it was probably one of his descendants. (Reply to this) (Parent)

	If she ever shows up in MU proper, Jen should sue her for copyright infringement (I'll be deeply disapointed if Jen doesn't have the She-Hulk name coprighted lol). (Reply to this) (Thread)

	schmevil 2009-04-14 06:36 pm UTC (link)
	She does come to the MU proper and Jen has been contracted to take her out. Someone will no doubt post the fight that's bound to happen next issue. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	bluefall 2009-04-14 06:38 pm UTC (link)
	It won't be me, since convention and story dictate Jen will lose, and that's just not something I feel we need to acknowledge. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	There's also colonel_green. Or me. But considering my schedule that's doubtful. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	Yeah, hey, did you ever get around to reading the final ish of PAD's SHE-HULK? (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	schmevil 2009-04-15 06:28 pm UTC (link)
	NO. I've had to special order it. D: (Reply to this) (Parent)

	Eh, I don't know; VL's a pretty good writer with these sorts of things, so I trust him not to do the hacky have-her-really-show-Jen-up thing (now, very likely she'll get away). (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	bluefall 2009-04-15 10:37 am UTC (link)
	Point. (Reply to this) (Parent)

	agreed. jobbing to the newbie is no bueno. (Reply to this) (Parent)

	Couldn't they at least have the decency to call her Girl-Hulk or Hulkwoman or something? (Reply to this)

	demonprawn 2009-04-15 07:32 am UTC (link)
	This is only a mini series right. Will the real She-hulk be back after? (Reply to this) (Thread)

	colonel_green 2009-04-15 09:24 am UTC (link)
	Not "back"; she never went anywhere. (Reply to this) (Parent)

	schmevil 2009-04-15 09:42 am UTC (link)
	Jen didn't go anywhere. Her book was canceled but she's still She-Hulk. (Reply to this) (Parent)
