Because I want to see if this will work and I have questions and praise...
Firstly Your work is awesome... I love She-Hulk and I loved Arkham Asylum.
the question... The time traveler's used a DNA scrambler in #2 and their faces end up looking a bit like the last Doctor Who:

is that intentional?
Appear, Slott! APPEAR!
And bring PUDDING! Delicious PUDDING!

BOING!
Wha? Where am I?
Um... Anyhoo... The look for the time-travelers (post-Scrambler) was ALL left to the imagination and the magic pencils of Juan Bobillo. Though as somebody who spent there formative teen-geek years in the U.K. watching the Tom Baker and Peter Davison episodes-- I get a big kick that there MAY be a DR. WHO tie-in in the current SHE-HULK.
BTW, did anybody spot the Tardis and the Dalek hidden away in the BLACKJACK stories (by Pete Woods and me) over in the recent AMAZING FANTASY #15?

P.S.
Have had 3 DR. WHO "moments" in my life. Here's one of 'em...
Unbeknownst to me, they were filming a location shot for an episode of DR. WHO near my home in London. I was walking back from school, and-- to my surprise-- saw Tom Baker (in full costume) walking and talking with the actor who was currently playing The Master (also in full costume). The two were on a break and having a snack. And I found it vaguely unsettling-- not that one of my biggest geek-heroes was walking down the sidestreet in full costume-- but that he was so amiable and chatty with his arch-nemesis. Found that very disturbing...

Dan Slott! You're awesome! If it weren't for you (And Adam Warren and Garth Ennis) I wouldn't be buying any Marvel titles at all!
...just thought you should know. And where's my pudding?

:D See, this is why Dan Slott rules! If I didn't buy She-Hulk already, I would totally start buying it just because this made me laugh so hard.

Dan is worse that Gail.
He got me to buy Thing AND She Hulk!
I want pudding to!
Omigod! I hope have learnt our lesson from Kurt Busiek, and not taken the summoning of any diety lightly, but this works! And no Man Faye in sight!!!

That's right, I would already own the first issue of Thing if my pusher... er... comic book dealer hadn't been sick first, then I was sick, then we were both snowed in, then I was busy promoting AIDS awareness... Argh. I missed 2 Previews already. I miss having an actual comic book shop.

I was already buying GLX/A,She-Hulk and the Thing anyway. But this should ALL be a lesson to you! Beware the power of the summons. Not all are dieties,some are demons.
Like lets say,Howard Porter,APPEAR!!!!
(run..run now,run while you can,for your very lives! Muahahahahah).
D0OM is coming... :evilsmile

I can fix that. Someone just say the word and say it quick before Kyuubi revokes my Manfaye posting privileges.

Hey Dan, I noticed in the GLX preview Squirrel Girl looking at a Vs. CCG card. Are you a fan of the game?

Dan, I'd just like to apologize for the fact that we're currently kicking the crap out of She-Hulk over on Suspension of Disbelief (http://comicfacts.blogspot.com). It's not personal, I assure you.
By the way, I loved Great Lakes Avengers.

Tell me that wasn't recent. If Tom Baker is in the new series, I may have to get a different region DVD player just to see it.
Tony Head as the Master is almost incentive enough!

Tom Baker is not going to be in the new ones.
However, I highly recommend the new ones. You can download them from bittorrent and you don't need a DVD player to do it.

Dan, I'm glad you stopped by. I love your work on She-Hulk and thought The Thing was very refreshing - I don't check out the previews too much, so grabbed it with no expectations from the shelf, and really was very happy I did.
I was, however disappointed with GLA. It seemed a little... mean-spirited to me. Of course, I have always had an inordinate enjoyment of those characters. I don't think I've ever picked up as much Marvel as I was back in the day of Vision's attempt to take over the world.
But, as the song says, "2 outta 3 ain't bad." Keep bringing us fun reads, please.

hey Dan!
thanks for popping in and for answering my question!!!
I loved She-Hulk for years and always wanted a follow up to the previous comedy series and I've loved your run...
Follow up questions:
1. She-Hulk movie NOW TODAY! Who do you cast?
2. Did you watch the new Doctor Who? How bout that Billie Piper???
3. more Spidey!!!! PLEASE!!!!!

I think I spelled the title wrong....Slott just wanted to say that without you and Juan Bobillo, I would'nt be reading She-Hulk, you remade her and she's one of my favorite characters! Thank you!

Dan and Juan are a fatal combination and make what is easily one of the most entertaining books in years. I'd shoot Dan just to work with Juan, and I'd shoot Juan just because I don't like people whose names rhyme with 'glon.'
I really want to have an unofficial crossover where Mockingbird and Marvel's Huntress rip-off meet She-Hulk, and DC's She-Hulk rip-off meet the Boppers.

I love She Hulk and I thought GLA was one of the maddest books I've ever read (how many other books have a squirrel giving commentary?)
Dan and Gail are my favourite two writers (not necessarily in that order) but both of them make me do something few other comic writers can... laugh!

Which makes Mockingbird the Black Canary rip-off. But doesn't answer the question of who the Marvel Huntress rip-off is.

No, she's the homage. Mockingbird was the ripoff.

Hasn't Elektra existed longer as that type of character than the current Huntress? I thought that Huntress wasn't revised from her role as daughter of Batman/Catwoman until after the Crisis?
And I figured the She-Hulk ripoff might have been Rampage?

Catwoman was a criminal, so she still kinda was the daughter of a gangster. :D

She is the daughter of a gangster. Carmine Falcone aka The Roman is her father.
