Slowly but surely,She-Hulk: Attorney at Lawis getting to the second half of its title.
Jens a superhuman lawyer practicing superhuman law.
What could possibly go wrong?
In the second episode of the MCU legal comedy, Jen is fired, hired … and inspired.
Her moment of triumph is, however, short-lived.
Shes a liability now, for both the district attorneys office and other hiring law firms.
She still doesnt want to be an Avenger.
Do they even have health insurance or a salary?
Probably not, as we learned fromSam Wilsons attempt to get a bank loaninFalcon and the Winter Soldier.
This brings us to a segment called: Why Is She-Hulks Hair Like That?
The long, perfectly softBachelorettewaves that Jen Walters gains when she transforms have caused some online chatter.
I have two theories as to why the show made this artistic choice.
The first is pretty boring: Its what she looks like in the comics.
The second is less so.
Remember how that serum turned the evil Red Skull into … a red skull?
Bruce has repressed anger, ergo, he becomes the Hulk.
Who taught a serum Western beauty standards?
That I cant easily answer.
The serum is problematic and Im not afraid to (facetiously) say it.
Between him and the fancy office/salary, Jen and Nikki might be set.
The prison is run by the Department of Damage Control.
It used to be pretty straightforward: a secret government agency called S.H.I.E.L.D.
dealt with superhero-y things.
and first seen in a flashback to the Battle of New York inSpider-Man: Homecoming.WandaVisionalso introduced S.W.O.R.D.
which deals in weapons and, depending on which comics you read, outer space.
Based on recent events inMs.
Marvel,however, I dont think were supposed to like DODC.
How did they go from clean-up to incarceration?
A flow-chart would be nice.
Jen meets with Blonksy, who claims to have fully reformed.
He doesnt turn into the Abomination anymore.
He gives us a quick recap of his backstory fromThe Incredible Hulk.
He also reveals that he has made seven penpal soulmates who he wants to be with upon release.
Nothing suss or cult-like there.
Tim Roths sleazy demeanor isveryfunny in this scene.
(Bruce doesnt mind.
He was a totally different person true!
Mark Ruffalo wasnt inThe Incredible Hulk.
The green guy who fought Blonsky was played by Ed Norton.
In the words of Jen, ha ha.)
The phone call ends abruptly as the Hulk departs in a spaceship.
Theres just one more issue.
This show is cute!
An ad for Iron Man Threes shoes is on the side.
There are also some interesting headlines.
One reads Man fights with metal claws in bar brawl.
That most likely refers to James Howlett a.k.a.
It is, however, available to watch on HBO Max… for now.
Everything is fine and normal over there, right?
I hope he also received a haiku apology.
Bruces departure in the Sakaaran spaceship may or may not be teasing some kind ofHulkproject on the horizon.
Theres also Son of Hulk, in which the Hulk learns that he has a son.
Something to consider and theorize about.
