It took me 5 years to find the book - in July 2021 only 4 books were found in 9.8 grade according to the Census.
The books contains the following stories:
Secret Invasion tie-in, written by PETER DAVID and penciled by GG STUDIO'S VINCENZO CUCCA. A SECRET INVASION TIE-IN! He may have helped Nova and the Guardians save the universe twice, but now the Super-Skrull is out for blood...the blood of his own daughter! Can She-Hulk prevent the murder of her partner, or will Jazinda's infamous father use this summer's alien invasion to do his dirty work?
Cover by MIKE DEODATO JR.
32 PGS./Rated T+ Cover price $2.99.
Mike Deodato created this 2008 cover for She-Hulk #33 featuring She-Hulk vs. the Super-Skrull. It was part of the "Secret Invasion" event that ran through Marvel's titles that year when it was revealed that members of the Skrull race had been posing as some of Marvel's well-known characters for years.
She-Hulk was created in 1979 due to the popularity of the Hulk TV series. Marvel wanted to make sure that TV producers did not introduce a female version of the character first, thus owning the rights. While She-Hulk's own title ended after a couple of years, she would go on to great success as a member of the Avengers and the Fantastic Four, and would be revived in her own title multiple times over the decades.
Super-Skrull made his first appearance in 1963's Fantastic Four #18. He has the combined powers of the members of the Fantastic Four. He's a member of the alien race, the Skrulls, who first appeared back in 1962's Fantastic Four #2.
After breaking into the industry in the 90s with a well-regarded run on Wonder Woman, Deodato moved to Marvel and has had stints as the regular artist on Amazing Spider-Man and various Avengers titles.
The art has an approximate image area of 10" X 15".
More info about Super-Skrull [Kl'rt]:
"Kl'rt—more commonly known as the Super-Skrull—hails from the Skrull capital world of Tarnax IV (in the Tarnax System in the Andromeda Galaxy) which has since been destroyed by Galactus. The Skrull Emperor Dorrek VII wanted revenge against the Fantastic Four, who thwarted the Empire's attempt to invade Earth. Dorrek handpicked the mighty warrior Kl'rt, who was artificially augmented and given the combined abilities of the Fantastic Four. Kl'rt's power levels exceeded the originals—stronger than the Thing; superior flight and greater pyrokinetic ability than the Human Torch; better control of invisibility and telekinesis than the Invisible Woman; and an ability to stretch beyond that of Mr. Fantastic. The newly named "Super-Skrull" also retained his innate Skrull shapeshifting abilities and strong hypnotic skills. He was then dispatched to Earth to defeat the Fantastic Four and pave the way for a renewed invasion by the Skrull Empire."

And She-Hulk:
"Jennifer Walters, the cousin of Bruce Banner (Hulk), is the small and somewhat shy daughter of Los Angeles County Sheriff William Morris Walters and Elaine (née Banner) Walters (who died in a car crash when Jennifer was seventeen). Operatives of Nicholas Trask, a crime boss who had crossed paths with her father, shot and seriously wounded her on a day that Bruce Banner happened to be in town for a visit. Since no other donors with her blood type were available, Banner provided his own blood for a transfusion; as they already shared the same blood type and DNA, his radioactive blood, combined with her anger transformed Jennifer into the green-skinned She-Hulk when the mobsters tried to finish her off at the hospital.
As She-Hulk, Jennifer possessed powers similar to those of her cousin, though at a reduced level. She also possessed a less monstrous, more amazonian appearance."
