10 Controversial Comic Book Couples Fans Hated

10. Juggernaut And She-Hulk

She-Hulk Juggernaut Couple

In what can only be described as one of the most bizarre couplings in recent memory, She-Hulk and Juggernaut (as in, evil X-villain, Juggernaut), actually got together in the pages of Uncanny X-Men, some fourteen years ago.

The subject of countless jokes in the years since, the one-time pairing of Cain Marko and Jennifer Walters was promptly ret-conned with the revelation that it was a different She-Hulk who slept with Juggernaut, one from Earth 721. Convenient, yes, but that didn't stop the incident from becoming a running gag even after the retcon, with Marko's place on Walter's list of past conquests a frequent source of embarrassment for the former Fantastic Four member.

Some of the 'jokes' on display were and still are cringy AF however, and even borderline misogynistic, with one in particular involving Wolverine turning down Walters' advances on account of (and I quote), him not wanting 'Juggernaut's sloppy seconds'.

Sigh.
