She-Hulk, Volume 3: Time Trials by Dan Slott
2.0
She-Hulk finds herself representing a time traveler charged with murder who is claiming self-defense. With the client being the most high profile murder suspect in America, the lawyers of Goodman, Lieber, Kurtzberg & Holliway have to get creative to find a fair and unbiased jury pool... with a little help from the TVA (Time Variance Authority). But things get complicated when Hawkeye is pulled into jury duty!
I mean... maybe Slott's writing just isn't for me. There's a campiness and a penchant for drama that feels reminiscent to day-time court tv that I am not particularly fond of... but I am willing to give this series one more volume, because I've got a natural curiosity to weird legal cases, but my expectations for She-Hulk are at an all-time low. There's a pacing issue that seems to be getting worse with each issue and while I do think Jennifer needs the therapy, like a lot of therapy, the self-reflective pity parties she's throwing really do little for the plot.
