That is just a gawdawful wrong look for the She-Hulk, to the point where it puts me off buying the book.
I didn't read the "gray she-hulk" book, so I don't know what's been going on with the character the last few years.
I read rumors they were going to make her THE Hulk, and so were making her all gray and rage-monster-y. Then they changed their minds when they decided to bring back all the original (white male) characters in "Legacy." So she went green again (and apparently completely out of proportion).
Is that what happened? If not, what did?

Captain Comics said:
I read the "grey She-Hulk" book because my friendly neighborhood comics shop recommended it; they figured I got the last She-Hulk run, so I would want this one.
I liked the last run a WHOLE lot better, but I gave the "grey She-Hulk" book the ol' college try. You pretty well described things: the new book was titled "HULK," and they committed to making Jen the adjectiveless Hulk and swiflty uncommitted to that new direction. Oh, well ...
