Prologue: An elderly man in a hospital makes a deathbed
confession….
Jennifer “She-Hulk” Walters arrives at her Manhattan law office with her latest client,
the now-aged Steve Rogers, formerly Captain America. Her staff, Angie Huang and
Patsy Walker, are thrilled to meet the legendary hero. Getting down to
business, Steve explains that he is being sued for wrongful death over an
incident in Los Angeles
in 1940. Jen starts looking for loopholes but Steve tells her he does not want
to win on a technicality, he wants his name cleared. Since she is not licensed to
practice in California she phones Matt Murdock in San Francisco requesting to
be attached to his firm for the trial; Matt is agreeable until he learns the
details, then he brushes her off, to Jen’s surprise….
Soon, Jen, Steve, and the team are taking a Stark jet to LA
where they are mobbed by reporters; Jen has to Hulk out to scare them off. They
head to the office of local lawyer “Matt Rocks” (a duplicate of Jamie Madrox)
to use his firm for a base. After several days of intensive preparation, the
trial date finally arrives and Jen walks into the courtroom ready for anything…
…except for the discovery that the opposing attorney is Matt
Murdock….
