Finally, fourteen years after his first appearance, Iron Man was able to claim his very own issue one hundred. As if that wasn&#8217;t more complicated than your average super hero title, Jennifer Walters (aka the She-Hulk) has an even more convoluted story on her way to #100. Her first series (<em>the Savage She-Hulk<\/em>) lasted 25 issues. Her second series (the <em>Sensational She-Hulk<\/em>) lasted 60 issues and was made famous by <strong>John Byrne<\/strong>&#8216;s take on the character. Her third series (the adjectiveless <em>She-Hulk<\/em>) was made famous by <strong>Dan Slott<\/strong>&#8216;s take on the character and lasted for one full year (12 issues) before it was relaunched into a second season (or volume II). So, when issue #3 of her second volume was published, it was actually the 100th issue if you combined all the previous She-Hulk solo title issue numbers. Certainly a reason to celebrate &#8230; especially for a female solo title. And, to tie everything in together, this is the 100th post in the Cyberspace Comics Blog.
