Also, Hulk (Bruce Banner) has dome many things in the way of abilities than just feats of strength.

We're starting to stray from the purpose of this appreciation thread so maybe someone can start up a new thread about how to differentiate other gamma people from the Hulk, and quote the posts here. We might get other people not into Jen's and Bruce's appreciation threads to join in.

I left him out because it would take longer than a five word summary to explain
That's really it though, isn't it? There is no reason that the powers resorting from gamma exposure should be restricted by anything but the writers imagination.
Making everyone with gamma based powers the same as the Hulk doesn't just make him less unique, it also unnecessarily flattens just end if the Marvel Universe
It's fine to have other Bricks but aside from his children, none of them should have the exact same powerset.
True, I will stop here
Exactly, only restricted by a writer's imagination.
With that said, I'd like to see Jennifer tap into some of those other gamma abilities that would make her unique. It was said early on in the early issues of TIH that gamma-affected beings are a reflection of their subconscious selves. I want to see what is within Jennifer that makes her different.

Just to add while there are many Hulks. This still make the Hulk unique if you look at the origin of them. They all go their powers from him.
She-Hulk: blood transfusion from Bruce Banner.
Skaar: son
Lyra: Hulk DNA
Red Hulk: a machine that used Hulk as template.
Red She-Hulk: same machine but with She-hulk who got her powers from the Hulk.
TAH: siphoned off the Hulk into himself.
Without the Hulk DNA, they would all transform into something else or die if exposed to Gamma radiation.
But getting back on topic. There are things that make Jennifer unique. She can get stronger by working out as Jennifer Walters. There is the fourth wall breaking. Ovoid mind swap but with the gamma radiation in her blood cause her to swap body types rather than minds. She liked being a Hulk even now when is much more Savage. Until recently she was in control of her Hulk side just to name a few.

Damn does She-Hulk look awful.
Opinions may vary in quality.

That is stunning! Makes me extra sad that I'll be missing NYCC this year. On the other end of the emotional spectrum, it makes me happy that they referenced the time she pulled the taxi door when she returned to Earth after training with Gamora.
Oof that's some price tag shock. Looks like I got some thinking to do.
