I don’t like doing two character profiles in a row, unless there’s a new film coming out, but with the news of Tatiana Maslany taking on the role of She-Hulk, I’m making an exception!

Name: Jennifer Walters

Superhero Name: She-Hulk

Created By: Stan Lee

Played By: Tatiana Maslany

Powers: Superhuman strength and speed, regenerations

Mini Bio: Jennifer is the cousin of Bruce Banner (AKA The Hulk). She got her powers when she was shot by crime boss Nicholas Trask – Bruce was with her at the time, and was the only donor available, so to save her life, he had to give her his blood through a transfusion. But, his gamma-irradiated blood transformed her into She-Hulk. Her skin turned green, and she gained a reduced set of Hulk’s powers, though she kept her personality and intelligence. She can transform back into her human form, but chooses not to, as she prefers the confidence she feels when in her Hulk form. When Jennifer is not being saving the world with her powers, she works as a lawyer.
