I admit that sometimes I think about fictional plotlines to comics. I don't think that's too out there to admit; we all do it once every so often. But sometimes I wonder, what if there was a comic….about nothing. That's right, nothing! Luckily, Kate Leth has been delivering exactly that with her Hellcat books!
But now it's time to kick it into high gear with a comic arc! This one includes Patsy's exes, Damian Hellstrom and Mad Dog! Believe it or not, this cover is actually correlating to the story of the comic book! It's nice to see female writers being able to break this new ground! Shatter that glass ceiling!
If you're interested in more Hellcat, why not check out some of this!
The nefarious Hedy Wolfe is meeting with Damion Hellstrom! Looks like she's trying to frame Patsy for murder! Surely a man she was married to wouldn't fall for such a simple, poorly thought out trick!
Meanwhile, Patsy is taking a break from the stress of work to hang out with friends and make small talk. That happens a lot in this series for some reason.
Ian Phillips
Are… are they allowed to do that?
Jayden Hill
Jubilee and company make plans to sit and talk again, but unbeknownst to them, the dastardly Hedy Wolfe is cohorting with another one of Patsy's former significant others! What's she planning?
Sebastian Ward
THIS ISSUE ENDS WITH DAIMON HELLSTROM SENDING PATSY TO ANOTHER DIMENSION WHERE SHE COMES FACE TO FACE WITH A FIENDISH VERSION OF SHE-HULK
There, anons. I've saved you from needing to read through more of this.
Angel Williams
They're going to a Karaoke bar! Hopefully this will take the stress of Jen being in a coma, even though she's out of the coma. Oh, well, I guess no one told Kate. Boy, Patsy sure likes Jen a questionable amount! I doubt it has anything to do with our proud queer self-inserting writer. Don't think about it!
How about some panels where Ian introduced to Jubilee! You might think this is pointless, since we already know who Ian is, but I think it's important to have panels dedicated to reintroducing characters to every other character who hasn't met them. It's not filler, fuck you fuck you fuck you
Asher Russell
Wait, didn't they age Jubilee up already a few years back? How is she still a "teen mom"?
Mason Carter

If your question is "Is this person going to sing in a comic medium because that's always shit", then prepared to be blown away!
But Damian attacks! Oh no
Gabriel Morris
THIS IS MISERY
Aiden Sullivan
And then Mad Dog attacks! Oh man, this night is going really poorly!
Haha guys did you catch that Howard joke. Guys. Guys, c'mon, that's hilarious.
Landon Hall
how many more volumes of this shit we must endure before it gets finally cancelled?
Zachary Torres
HELLCAT SENSE TINGLING!
Josiah Ortiz
They'd have to go until at least a multiple of 6 for trades, right?
Kevin Ortiz
Damian is convinced that Patsy and her gay roomate are secretly planning on murdering him because Hedy said so. And Mad Dog is thoroughly convinced Patsy always had the cure for his disease in her purse.
Jayden Flores
And this issue ends with Hellstrom sending Patsy to another dimension where she comes face to face with a fiendish version of She-Hulk!
um wow way to be a bigot
>"If the next issue ends with Kate Patsy professing her love for She-Hulk I'm fucking stabbing you." um excuse me but way to emphasis bigotry
um woah okay good job turning up the bigot machine microphone champ
Nicholas Sanders
Is there any reason these two would believe Hedy anyway, besides the obvious mental condition that led them to marrying Patsy in the first place?
Will the end of this storyline just be Patsy proclaiming "I will never love a MAN ever again!" so she can finally hook up with She-Hulk?
Too be fair that's probably more set up for turning a character gay than a lot of other sexuality retcons, especially from Marvel.
Gabriel Ortiz
While you wait for next months gripping tale of 'Evil She-Hulk because she's wearing black' maybe you can write Marvel a fan letter, like these very real and not intern-made fan letters!
I had a hunch from the start that this run would only last 12 issues. It'll be very sad to see it go.
Brandon Nguyen
Okay… okay. I get that the plan is to make Patsy gay and it's been set up for all these issues. That's fine, whatever. But how will the reasoning of She-Hulk returning those feelings be? Will the Anti-Thanos missile make her gay? Is her new design the ALL NEW, ALL LESBIAN SHE HULK???
Jordan Morales
Those fan letters are so real.
Like, I just can't get over how real they are.
They're so fucking real.
Tyler Young
cats wrote the letters, pretending to be people
Matthew Gomez
More like the unemployed narcissists can be heard. It's literally no better than shitposting on a chan.
Ryder Morales
Those numbers… I mean, that's purely due to stores buying a certain amount because it's a Marvel book isn't it? Is every single comic shop in America sitting on tons of Patsy back issues that they'll never sell?
Isaac Myers
What the fuck?! That's 100% stolen from Wonderella. There's a scene where the pyromancer ex is drinking with the Devil, I'm positive. It's almost unbelievable, but then I remember what a sack of shit Kate Leth is…
Samuel Ortiz
Calling it now.
Jace Murphy
It is killing me that we have to wait a month to find out exactly how right you are.
Evan Jones
shit?
Chase Perry
You forgot the quotations around Anti-Thanos. For those who don't know this was his response to the question when asked.
