Though not as fun as the previous issue, this issue still is a good time. In it, Razorback hijacks a faster than light space shuttle and She-Hulk tries to stop him. The result is one of those 1970s trucking movies set in the Star Wars universe. No, I don't know if John Byrne did a lot of drugs in the late 1980s; I think he's probably just wonderfully high on his own creativity.
Here are some random thoughts on this issue:
*Mister Fantastic gueststars, reminding readers that She-Hulk used to be a more "normal" superhero and a former member of The Fantastic Four. Now she uses her old teammate as a bouncy ball to launch herself into space. This comic never won any awards for realism.
*Mixing Razorback in wasn't enough for Byrne; he also works in US 1, a strange toy tie-in comic that wasn't quite as successful as G.I. Joe. I only read one issue as a kid, but it was about a trucker with a CB Radio in his head or something. Apparently, Byrne now has him being a trucker in outer space. Don't ask. Really, don't ask. Just read the comic.
*On the two-page cosmic spread done when She-Hulk complains about his art, it appears that Byrne has pasted in a photo of a volleyball.
*Xemnu, a Lee and Kirby monster creation, appears in a cliffhanger at the end. Byrne didn't even need the cliffhanger though; he had me with the next issue's title: "I Have No Mouth And I Am Mean!!"
"It is not for a legislator, a judge, or a commander from The Handmaid's
Tale to tell these women what to do with their bodies."
