She-Hulk

The first episode of She-Hulk: Attorney At Law is the origin story we need for Tatiana Maslany's Jen Walters before we dive into "fun lawyer show."

The episode ends in explosive fashion, with Titania (Jameela Jamil) bursting through the walls of the courtroom just as Jen is starting to deliver her closing remarks, having decided to return to her life and rejecting the mantle of superhero. With more familiar faces from the MCU set to arrive in the coming weeks, including Wong (Benedict Wong), Emil Blonsky (Tim Roth) and of course Daredevil (Matt Murdock), it's just a matter of time before the lawyer show becomes the superhero show. But when she first gets them, she loses control on a group of men who follow her out of a bar and force their presence on her in the kind of terrifying moment too many of us are familiar with. As the three prepare to head to court, Jen hangs back for a moment and turns to address the audience directly and explain why exactly it is that Nikki made reference to Jen "hulking out" in court. While she's secluded on an island in Mexico with Bruce, who has reassumed his Smart Hulk form, she points out that mastery of her emotions — anger in particular — is something that comes far more naturally to her than it does to him. Dennis is a little less than helpful, claiming he should be the one to make the closing argument, while Nikki is far more encouraging.

A charming Tatiana Maslany makes us fall for Marvel's latest small-screen superhero.

To drive her point home, Jen goes from human to Hulk and back again with the ease of a woman unhooking her bra at the end of a long workday. As she’s tearing the place apart, Nikki crawls over to Jen and tells her that she needs to Hulk out to save the civilians around them. To the tune of “Fast (Motion)” by Saweetie, Bruce teaches her boulder-throwing, wardrobe tips (“spandex is your best friend”), and Hulk yoga. We then return to present-day Jen, who tells us she’s been able to keep her powers under wraps since, only coming out as a Hulk to Nikki and her family. (“Those are, like, the baseline of any woman just existing,” she deadpans.) He goes in hot with a wall of buzzing saw-blades, and Jen transforms, easily stopping the saws and tearing the door off. But Bruce insists she still needs to learn to control her transformations and master her powers. “Whoever did this to you does not care about...” one says, and they surround her in a cloud of makeup, hairspray, and goodwill, gifting her a fuzzy pink jacket and a pair of iridescent sandals. What’s more, he was able to use her blood to heal his arm and is now back in fighting shape. This is his Mexican hideaway, the place where, with the help of his old pal Tony, he figured out a way to combine violent Hulk and gentle Bruce into one guy. The rapport between the cousins—and between Maslany and Ruffalo—is immediately obvious as they gossip about everything from Jen’s habit of eating Flamin’ Hot Cheetos with chopsticks (product placement!) to whether Captain America died a virgin. Four women who are clearly having the night of their lives come in and immediately offer Jen the kind of support that you only find in women’s restrooms at midnight. She wakes up after dark in human form, barefoot and covered in dirt and blood, and stumbles into the bathroom of the hilariously named Ideal Sports Bar.

Let us know in the comments below. They understand the importance of consistency with their programs and have remained punctual. As of now, the times and dates will remain the same throughout the season, with new episodes releasing weekly until the season finale on Thursday, Thursday, October 13. Bruce spent years not being able to control the monster inside of him, destroying everything in sight, and hating who he was. He said it in the trailer. Now it’s time to see if the trailers did the show justice.

She-Hulk episode 1 introduces a charming – if slightly unbalanced – new addition to the MCU, with Tatiana Maslany's charisma in the lead role the real ...

But with eight more episodes on the way, we’ll have plenty of time to get to know Jennifer – and her alter-ego – better. The frustrating result distracts from the subtleties of Tatiana Maslany’s performance – and I couldn’t help but long for her to return to Jennifer form. We only get a very brief glimpse at this side of Jennifer’s other life, including a very brief introduction to There are also other classic MCU references to enjoy: Bruce and Jennifer’s hideout was built by Tony Stark, the spaceship that sent them off course was Sakaaran, and they solve the issue of Bruce’s injured arm after the [Spider-Man](https://www.gamesradar.com/marvel-spider-man-ps4-review/), but not far off) as she prepares to take to the courtroom floor for her latest case. She’s so likable as soon as she’s on screen, effortlessly nailing the comedy, including some particularly great moments where she grapples with the foot-and-a-half difference between her Hulk height and her Jennifer height. In fact, she doesn’t seem to have much of an issue at all with her new powers, much to Bruce’s amazement. He’s got a binder – and 13 years of trauma – to help. Now, as Phase 4 comes to an end with its last episodic series, She-Hulk is planning to push the superhero genre even further as the studio's first all-out comedy – all in the guise of a half-hour legal drama. A rogue spaceship pulls out in front of their car and causes them to roll and crash. Both survive, but Bruce gets some of his blood on Jennifer’s open wound, turning her into She-Hulk. Think less Thanos, and more about the perils of dating on Tinder when you’re six-foot-seven and green.

She-Hulk featured a surprising spaceship from Sakaar that could tease the arrival of an important character in Hulk's past.

In the comics, World War Hulk is a storyline about Hulk returning to Earth to take his revenge against the superhero teams that exiled him on Sakaar. This role was given to Hulkling in the comics, but the MCU could incorporate an actual member of the Hulk bloodline to strengthen the young superhero group. In the comics, Skaar is not a member of the Young Avengers. With that in mind, Skaar serving as the pilot of the Sakaaran spacecraft could be a real possiiblity. This led to speculation that someone related to Hulk is piloting the ship, teasing an unexpected reveal in the series. Given that She-Hulk is set years after Ragnarok combined with the fact that time moves differently on Sakaar, it's likely that Hulk's son is an adult in the present-day MCU.

Marvel Studios navigates the tricky landscape of a half-hour live-action comedy series featuring CGI characters in She-Hulk: Attorney at Law, ...

But hey, perhaps viewers who love network-style sitcoms and procedural shows will get more of a kick out of the whole thing, and perhaps She-Hulk: Attorney at Law will markedly improve after episode four. [Marvel](https://www.denofgeek.com/marvel/) MCU shows, the end credits shine brightly yet again, with the art giving us some good-humored context for Jen’s new life as She-Hulk. The later procedural stuff is also kinda interminable, with a succession of There are plenty of MCU connections in the first episode of She-Hulk: Attorney at Law, and most of them are weaved in via Bruce filling in some Phase 3 gaps for us. She is able to control her Hulk situation a lot more easily, she is still basically herself when in Hulk form, and she has no intention of being a superhero. Episode one is different to the rest, and sticks to Jen’s origin story before the series becomes its true procedural self. Bruce references his origin story as Edward Norton and several moments in The Avengers and Avengers: Age of Ultron while discussing how he was historically able to transition from Banner to the Hulk and back again. It’s not just that this vibe feels dated as all hell, it also speaks to how far behind the MCU is with female superhero representation that it feels the need to catch up in such a lazy and clichéd way. Not for nothing, that famous image of Oscar Isaac eating Cheetos with chopsticks also sprung to mind when Jen was praising the virtues of the technique with Bruce. The bulk of the premiere then focuses on Jen first learning to cope with her powers, and Bruce testing her limits. Some of the messaging in this show is as subtle as a boulder being thrown your way.

She-Hulk was created by writer Stan Lee and artist John Buscema in 1980, and first appeared in The Savage She-Hulk No. Walters talked directly to the reader, breaking the "fourth wall" between characters and readers. [She-Hulk review for CNET](/culture/entertainment/she-hulk-attorney-at-law-review-marvels-latest-is-smart-but-underwhelming/), I noted the show's savagely smart streak, but, as I wrote there, I couldn't help feeling "it lacks the delicious chicanery of a proper legal drama, the rousing action of a sci-fi show or the heart of even other Marvel shows." In the Marvel comics, Walters is a lawyer who becomes She-Hulk after receiving an emergency blood transfusion from her cousin -- one Bruce Banner.

[Endgame](https://mashable.com/article/avengers-endgame-review) MCU has certainly made it seem like Steve is widely believed to be dead. Will we ever get to see the post-battle conversation where Tony (because it was definitely Tony) wheedled that information out of Steve? "He lost his virginity to a girl in 1943 on the USO tour." "Captain America FU—" And the scene cuts to black, because while Jen may break the fourth wall like Deadpool, this is still the MCU and nobody is allowed to actually swear. The episode winds up as Jen goes back to her life as a lawyer, her hopes of keeping her new alter ego a secret swiftly dashed in a superpowered courtroom incident. That ass, like, did not deserve to die a virgin."

Marvel's latest show on Disney+ introduces Bruce Banner's cousin (and comedy) to the MCU. Here's what to read after you've turned green with laughter.

(Slott teases something called the Reckoning War in his She-Hulk comics; that wouldn’t come to fruition until the very end of his Fantastic Four run, earlier this year. The idea that She-Hulk would work in an office that specializes in superhuman legal cases comes from this mid-2000s series written by Dan Slott, who’d go on to make his name with an extensive run as Marvel’s primary Spider-Man writer. If there’s a breakthrough project for She-Hulk, it’s Sensational She-Hulk, a stealth reboot of the entire character that established her as a comedy hero.

For Jennifer Walters (Tatiana Maslany), that query comes quite literally as she's gifted with the powers of a Hulk. To be a Hulk — like her cousin, Bruce Banner ...

Her new powers have made clear how unfairly she’s been treated, and now she has the ability to do something about it. Good for She-Hulk for being the first MCU superhero to use her powers for horniness. But her new success brings to light the way Jen has been continually overlooked and taught to undercut herself. One is about recognizing what you owe other people; the other is about recognizing what we owe ourselves. If given the choice to live a superhero’s life, she would ask if it offered health care (the Avengers famously do not). Perhaps I’m naive, but I’d hope that someone tuning into She-Hulk and wanting to enjoy it would know that cat-calling a woman on the street is not good behavior. In the first four episodes critics were given, there are plots in which Jen has to figure out the legal ramifications of supervillain parole or how to serve a cease and desist to unlicensed magic users. We’ll see how far Marvel wants to go in examining the sexist world She-Hulk pushes back against. That’s all not to mention the duty, and burden, of using his abilities to protect and save the defenseless. If someone threw out the idea of the endless, At the start, Jen is content in her circumscribed life. She’s proud of her work in the DA’s office.

We know there will be some big cameos in this series, including Abomination, Bruce Banner and Daredevil, but the focus is squarely on Jennifer Walters, a woman ...

What are you looking forward to seeing with She-Hulk Season 1? She-Hulk: Attorney At Law is available to watch on Disney+ worldwide. She-Hulk: Attorney At Law marks the final TV venture for Phase 4, with the adventures of She-Hulk.

Disney+'s "She-Hulk" with its first mid-credits scene of the season cracked the mystery of Captain America's sex life.

And I’m also just so happy and proud that we managed to let Jen make the big proclamation that she makes.” “The season was going to close out with that tag. “I’m so happy and proud that we got to answer that question. The question of Steve Rogers’ virginity has “been a discussion for years,” Gao said. That ass did not deserve to die a virgin. “Did you see that ass?

She-Hulk: Attorney at Law episode 1 makes several references to Captain America, but does Chris Evans make a cameo in the new series?

Let us know in the comments! While we do not see Evans back on screen in the episode, we do see a photo of his Captain America which happens to be Jen’s cell phone wallpaper! Sure it would have been amazing to see him back in some way, but Evans has hinted that he’s finished with the character, and

The new Disney+ Marvel series She-Hulk just answered a question that has long plagued fans of Steve Rogers: Is Captain America a virgin?

“Captain America fu—” she yells, and then the screen cuts out because this is a PG show. [“America’s ass.”](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=iaoxsOs8ENg) “It’s just so sad. [The writers of Endgame have suggested as much.](https://www.hollywoodreporter.com/movies/movie-news/avengers-endgame-writers-confirm-captain-america-fan-theory-1209241/) “Steve Rogers is not a virgin,” he says. “He lost his virginity to a girl in 1943 on the U.S.O. In the final minutes of that movie, Steve Rogers travels back in time to find young Peggy and live out the rest of his life with her. (That is, until he travels back in time to reunite with her at the end of Avengers: Endgame—but more on that later.) The two lock lips (again, gross), but let’s all hope and assume they never did more considering that Steve is probably her grand-uncle (gross!). “So he becomes Captain America, and from that moment on, a symbol of America, he is rushed to the frontlines. [Marvel Cinematic Universe’s self-seriousness](https://time.com/6171012/marvel-movies-shows-upcoming/). But, apparently, Jennifer and maybe even Bruce think Captain America is dead at the time of She-Hulk, which takes place post-Endgame. Sure, he flirts with Black Widow (Scarlett Johansson) in Captain America: The Winter Soldier.

The post-credits scene of She-Hulk episode 1 has Bruce Banner reveal something about Captain America's sex life to Jen Walters (Tatiana Maslany).

It’s the fact that Jen’s curiosity about this question exists just to get built up to a punchline, because haha, isn’t it funny that Captain America fucked? And it has nothing to do with the fact that the most popular Captain America ships are And if you’re wondering where they all went, apparently you’re the butt of the joke.

It’s the fact that this girl gets no name or backstory or emotional connection. So instead of heartfelt, genuine-feeling relationships, we get other characters telling the audience what’s up with those same sarcastic zingers. But the episode’s post-credits scene reveals a drunken Jen rambling about how sad it is that Steve Rogers died without getting some. We get to hear about Peter Quill and Tony Stark’s conquests, but God forbid we get anything beyond the incredibly [awkward sex scene in Eternals.](https://www.theverge.com/22880740/eternals-sex-scene-disney-plus) It’s then, out of pity or perhaps because Jen seems too drunk to remember, that Bruce reveals Jen’s assumption is wrong.

The first episode of Marvel's 'She-Hulk: Attorney at Law' on Disney+ has a running bit of Jennifer Walters trying to figure out if Captain America had sex.

At the beginning of the episode, Bruce is being generally unhelpful to the investigation, which [can be seen in a clip](https://twitter.com/imdb/status/1557758865827155970?s=21&t=EFisysX2Sb5ZcEc653RRTw).

She-Hulk’s got a few tricks up her sleeve and, in a mid-credits sequence, pretends to be sad and drunk to force He-Hulk to admit that Cap lost his virginity “in 1943 to a woman on the USO tour.” Walters celebrates, revealing she wasn’t drunk and shouting “Captain America fu–” before she gets cut off by the credits.

She-Hulk attracted controversy ahead of release for its digital effects in trailers, but past that, happens to be an MCU show directed by, written by, ...

She-Hulk has a 90% critic score with 255 reviews in and 77% audience score, which isn’t great (it’s the lowest among MCU shows at the moment), but it’s not as intensive of a bombing run as what’s being shown on IMDB. So yes, as ever, this kind of review bombing is incredibly childish and stupid. I also thought the comedy and fourth wall-breaking worked, but I’m certainly curious to see more and how the show develops now that Jennifer is back in lawyer mode. And as I posted last time, here’s what this curve looks like for a “just okay” series like Falcon and the Winter Soldier that no one is bombing: Yes, more than a third of all reviews for She-Hulk are 1 star, which makes its current IMDB score 5.4 out of 10, the lowest of all the MCU series. Marvel is still at a 6.2 with 19.9% 1 star reviews, so it’s not like IMDB every really goes and tries to sort through these kinds of bombing campaigns. All I have to do is consult the last article I wrote about this, which shows what review bombing actually looks like, where it’s taking place on Marvel, and what has not happened to the same extent with other MCU series. In fact, this is actually worse than what happened with Ms. - Hawkeye – 1.5% - She-Hulk – 35.8% - Loki – 1.5%

The post-credits scene for 'She-Hulk' Episode 1 answers the most important Steve Rogers-adjacent question: is Captain America a virgin?

[Marvel's Infinity Saga](https://www.esquire.com/entertainment/a40458776/marvel-cinematic-universe-mcu/).

The show answers a few questions that fans have had about the jade giant post-'Avengers: Endgame'. she-hulk-trailer-bruce-banner ...

The device breaks during the car crash, meaning that Banner reverts to his "Smart Hulk" form, although he uses Jennifer's blood to heal his broken arm — an injury sustained when he snapped his fingers while wearing the Infinity Gauntlet. In the She-Hulk pilot, he explains that the device helps him revert to human form while also healing the damage that he received to his arm when he wielded the Infinity Stones in Endgame. And given Banner's presence in She-Hulk, as well as the return of the Abomination (Tim Roth), it looks like the jade giant will continue to have a major influence on the MCU's future. This winds up being a moot point as Jennifer has more of a handle on her Hulk strength, even being able to change back and forth between forms at will. The first episode shows that transformation, with a car crash leading to Bruce's gamma-irradiated blood seeping into Jennifer's wounds and transforming her into the She-Hulk — but the rest of the episode also reveals more about how Bruce was able to merge his two separate personalities into one whole Hulk. The She-Hulk pilot expands further on this: during the five-year gap between Avengers: Infinity War and Endgame, Banner constructed a lab in Mexico with the help of Tony Stark.

Marvel's "She-Hulk" this Thursday made the case for headlining her own Disney+ series. What say you, the jury?

Once this very random (and to-be-explained-later) threat is neutralized, Jen returns to her normal self, clothes a bit tattered, and plainly tells the judge, “I’m ready to give my closing argument now.”](https://tvline.com/wp-content/uploads/2022/08/she-hulk-maslany-video.jpg) Nikki quietly urges Jen to do her “thing,” publicly for the first time, and — favorite outfit be damned — Jen kicks off her heels and swells into her She-Hulk form, to clobber Titania. Tensions cool as Jen helps Bruce rebuild the bar, during which he concedes that she can return to her normal life. Powers like this can put a target on your back, he warns, but Jen is more focuses on her ability to metabolize booze — “All buzz, no barf,” Bruce boasts. The question then becomes, “How can Jen turn herself back?,” as Bruce warns that he was once “stuck” as Hulk for two years, in outer space. And as she drags out a dazed Bruce, blood from his own wound drips into hers, nearly instantly causing her to “hulk out,” as seen in a car door reflection.

She-Hulk gets to the bottom of the Captain America virginity rumor, which has epitomized the lack of onscreen romance for Marvel superheroes.

In the new MCU show, Bruce Banner's cousin Jennifer Walters becomes a Hulk, but rather than be a superhero, she wants to keep being a lawyer.

The IRL actor and fictional Jen share a love of eating • Jen’s origin story is a bit different here than it is in the comics. This makes sense to me, and not in a #girlboss or “girls mature faster” or “backward and in heels” kind of way. In the post-credits scene, Jen fakes being drunk so she can get Bruce plastered and finally learn the dirty deets about Captain Rogers — who Bruce confirms hooked up with a girl on the USO tour back in the 1940s. Back in the present in Los Angeles, Jen is ready to nail her closing argument in the case against GLK&H. The third time she transforms, she retains her mind and memory and doesn’t need to be talked to like a wild animal. Eager to train the new green meanie in the family, Bruce assembles a binder of notes to help teach his cuz the ropes and determine what triggers her transformations. She is not super-adept at fighting, but there’s not a lot of finesse to smashing anyway. That prompts our hero to perceive us, turning to the camera and explaining that, as of a few months ago, she is a Hulk, NBD. Pac-Man situation.) One day after the events of Avengers: Endgame, Jen and Bruce are riding in a car together. This causes her to Hulk out and black out a second time. If you need a refresher on a decade of MCU history to make sense of the premiere, I’ve got you covered.

When She-Hulk brings in Jameela Jamil's Titania at the end of episode 1, it seems like she might be a one-off villain. But Titania has a long Marvel ...

In one memorable and oddly moving instance from Tom DeFalco and Ron Frenz’s Mighty Thor, Creel even sits down at a diner with Thor himself to convince him to scare Titania straight, to stop her from giving up the law-abiding life and returning to prison. By the time of 1989’s Solo Avengers #14, a chastened Titania was forced to solemnly promise She-Hulk (on pain of thrashing) to go back to jail and leave her alone — a vow which, alas, MacPherran couldn’t quite keep. Titania was never quite able to shake off her childhood sense of mediocrity, and she needs to impress She-Hulk by proving she’s up to her standards. And the only way to do that is by proving that she’s strong enough to pound her into cement.

Her escape was to lose herself in stories of larger-than-life superheroes and villains, whom she idolized beyond reasonable limits — even to the point of pretending to be Spider-Woman to impress her friends.

The 'She-Hulk: Attorney at Law' team — including Jessica Gao, Kat Coiro, Tatiana Maslany and Mark Ruffalo — break down the series' key relationships.

“As actors, they were bonding about all of these technical aspects that they have to deal with” in the motion capture suit, says Coiro. “He thinks somehow he’s going to mansplain what it is to be the Hulk to her, and she ends up teaching him just as much as he’s trying to teach her, if not more,” says Ruffalo. Because Jen’s origin story involves Banner, “She-Hulk” allows the genius scientist to show new sides of his life through his interactions with his cousin. And from the first episode, “She-Hulk” does not shy away from addressing how women like Jen live with constant pressure to control their rage and fear in a way that men like Banner do not have to. “In so many things, even when they have loving friends, someone’s stabbing someone in the back at some point, and it’s so unnecessary,” says Gonzaga. “There’s a real fun antagonism there.” And yet, when you present so differently, when you are suddenly green and gigantic and every eye in the room turns to you when you walk in through a door, you do modulate your personality.” And Gonzaga sidesteps the answer like a true MCU pro when questioned about whether Nikki has any secrets or powers of her own. Below are some of Jen’s key relationships introduced in “She-Hulk” so far. [Mark Ruffalo](https://www.latimes.com/entertainment-arts/tv/story/2020-07-07/mark-ruffalo-derek-cianfrance-i-know-this-much-is-true-hbo), quoting head writer Jessica Gao, is “how horny-forward [the story] is” compared to the rest of the Marvel Cinematic Universe, he shares with a laugh. “It was effortless to be friends with her … Despite gaining the ability to transform into a powerful, giant, green version of herself, though, Walters insists she will keep living the same life she did before the accident.

[there's no telling how big her role will be with so many heroes in the picture](https://thedirect.com/article/avengers-5-cast-characters-mcu-10849). She-Hulk appears set to suffer in the same limbo, with no appearances currently confirmed, and Season 2 up in the air for now. there are all these things that are said, some of which are germane to her living in that world and these would be things that are said. Just as the MCU has done previously with other world-ending threats, the blockbuster events are expected to bring together heroes from all corners of the franchises and teams from across the Multiverse. Well, those questions are still in the air, but one MCU producer has some thoughts.

Jameela Jamil appears in Episode 1 of 'She-Hulk'. Here's who she plays and what you should know about Titania.

She defeats the woman and we see police officers handcuffing her and taking her away. Bullied throughout her childhood, Mary always wanted to gain powers and fame. [Marvel,](https://www.marvel.com/characters/titania-mary-macpherran) in the comics Mary McPherran is Titania, a supervillain who gained powers after a run-in with Doctor Doom. Jamil plays Tahani Al-Jamil, a delusional and wealthy socialite who also met her untimely end. But as she’s about to give her closing argument for a career-making case, a woman suddenly bursts into the courtroom and begins destroying the place. Still, Bruce stresses to Jen that she can’t go back to the way things were before she became a Hulk.

Chris Evans shared his funny reaction to a major reveal about his Captain America character in the She-Hulk Disney+ series.

It's also appropriate that Bruce Banner was the one who confirmed Steve Rogers' virginity status. Some are heavily speculating that the woman was She-Hulk: Attorney at Law's latest reveal blew everyone away, and it's only fitting that Chris Evans joined the hype. While Walters appears convinced that Rogers is not a virgin anymore, Banner played coy about the matter. This answer to this question has long been speculated by Marvel fans, and recently, [Marvel Studios president Kevin Feige was the one who actually unveiled](https://thedirect.com/article/kevin-feige-captain-america-virginity-mcu) the answer to the writers.

'She-Hulk: Attorney at Law' finally answers the question of whether Captain America died a virgin — and Mark Ruffalo didn't warn Chris Evans about it.

"And I was like, 'You have the answer, and we can tell everyone?' And he was like, 'Yeah.' So this is Marvel canon. She loved how Jen is obsessed with Captain America's virginity because "it's the human side of him, the real side, the thing that she would [relate to]." "We didn't set out thinking that we were going to be able to answer it," Gao tells EW. In that vein of that question, there's a lot more Easter eggs like that throughout the season. But the actress admits she had no idea this was something Marvel fans have been wondering for years, adding, "I love that that's how everybody's thinking. "That's all the human stuff that we don't get to [usually see]," he says. But it turns out no one warned Captain America himself that a very personal piece of his history was about to be broadcast to the world. "What's great about this show is that we get to see them as just human beings and what their lives are and what those histories are. The cat's out of the bag." as the scene abruptly cuts, and now that piece of very vital information is cemented in the Marvel Cinematic Universe forever. An annoyed Bruce decides to put an end to her rambling by disclosing a shocking piece of information he's been sitting on for years: "Steve Rogers is not a virgin. On its own, it's a brilliantly meta bit that calls out the legions of fans who debated that very topic for years (before Avengers: Endgame revealed that Steve ended up with Hayley Atwell's Peggy Carter, thanks to some time travel).

Unlike Bruce though, Jennifer is still able to switch between her human and Hulk selves naturally, as well as has the benefit of retaining her personality when she’s in She-Hulk form. First and foremost though, this is a She-Hulk show, and we need to see her be able to handle threats on her own. Fortunately, she was able to easily defeat Jameela Jamil’s Titania at the end of this episode, so this shouldn’t be an issue.

Given that Bruce's arms device was blinking after the car crash, it appears that it was either partially or completely damaged, thus explaining why he reverted to Hulk form. The origin story portion of She-Hulk: Attorney at Law’s premiere episode, “A Normal Amount of Rage,” began with showing Bruce Banner on a road trip with his cousin, Jennifer Walters, played by Orphan Black's Tatiana Maslany. During the five-year gap between Thanos’ snap and the Mad Titan’s genocide being undone, Mark Ruffalo’s Bruce found a way to combine his intelligence and personality with Hulk’s physique, and Smart Hulk was born!

That same sling is in She-Hulk Episode 1, along with a device on his wrist that was revealed to be a regulator to prevent any spontaneous hulking.

The argument between Jen and Bruce is basically a buildup to the obligatory fight scene. Anyway, Bruce confirms that Steve Rogers lost his virginity in 1943 to a girl on the USO tour. She's only pretending to be drunk, because the major benefit of Hulkdom is that pounding brews is all buzz and no barf. And so we're back to the trial. It's intriguing to see whether the arrival of a fellow Hulk brings out the conflict in Banner. We see a glimpse of this when Bruce smacks Jen off a cliff in a fit of jealousy, but I think that's meant to be funny (perhaps calling back to the " The episode is even called "A Normal Amount of Rage."

At the end of the day, a few crappy special effects are hardly the end of the world. Marvel needs to start vaulting it – or find a better way to tell its stories. The fight between Hulk and She-Hulk towards the end of She-Hulk episode one isn’t just bad because of hurried CGI. But whereas traditional pre-streaming TV would find ways to adapt to the medium’s budgetary limitations – namely by scaling back set-pieces, reusing sets and locations, eschewing big-name actors, and settling for cheaper practical effects when required – She-Hulk instead tries to approximate the production value of Marvel’s blockbuster movies. You get the impression it’s a miracle the special effects end up remotely usable at all. “They’re a horrible client, and I’ve seen way too many colleagues break down after being overworked, while Marvel tightens the purse strings.” Many have rushed to defend the VFX houses that Marvel employs to implement its many special effects; they have argued that the blame falls squarely at Marvel’s feet. But for the most part, Marvel has become synonymous with a certain kind of bombastic, charmless VFX mulch.

In her comics catalog, Jennifer Walters never wanted to be a superhero, but she still wanted to spend her career helping people. As a superhero lawyer, is there not an obvious story here about how difficult it is to help people in this world when you are so defenseless yourself? We're sitting on a remote island in Episode One with Jen's cousin, [Bruce Banner](https://www.esquire.com/entertainment/tv/a40918575/she-hulk-mark-ruffalo-tatiana-maslany/) (Mark Ruffalo), who spends about a half hour learning that Jen is better at being the Hulk because she's a girl and not a boy.

And the confluence of these two modes has made Jennifer Walters into an extremely rare sight in pop culture: a highly feminine character who still gets to be incredibly smart, incredibly strong, incredibly confident, and incredibly funny. Slott’s series wasn’t exactly about the different ways women move through the world based on physical appearance or fame, but it was about Jen learning to feel proud of herself even when she wasn’t 7 feet tall and bench pressing a truck. And it’s the mixture of these two modes that the creators of She-Hulk: Attorney at Law chose for their series. Her first case was to prove that a corporation owed damages to an employee who was given superpowers in a laboratory accident. But in 1989, something would happen to her that would cement Jennifer Walters into the fundament of Marvel Comics forever. It would be the mid-2000s before another writer would come along and give her a new dominant mode: The superhero world’s foremost legal mind.

Jennifer Walters, the slight, mild-mannered criminal defense attorney who transformed into the Amazonian-proportioned (and scantily clad) She-Hulk when she got angry, would be the last new Marvel Comics superhero Lee would create for over a decade. Her origin — and first solo book, The Savage She-Hulk (issue 1 by Stan Lee and John Buscema, all other issues by David Anthony Kraft and Mike Vosburg) — was classic Marvel.

She-Hulk: Attorney at Law not only brings a new female hero into the MCU, but it seems like it is on track to highlight the MCU’s flaws up until this point when it comes to dealing with female characters. [Hulk’s journey in the MCU](https://gamerant.com/incredible-hulk-fan-theory-movie-mcu/), fans assume that Walters is going through a similar scenario, where she is unable to control her anger.

She goes on to highlight that if women do otherwise, they are often referred to as “emotional or difficult,” another comment on the Even in the more developed countries, the gender gap in the labor forces is still quite substantial, with many women leaving work after childbirth. However, when her cousin decides to run experiments on her in his hidden lab in Mexico, Walters proves that isn’t the case, and she is conscious every time she turns green. An independent woman is often viewed as a threat in society and the professional world. The reason behind this difference is the fact that she is a woman, which isn’t a comment on her physical strength or appearance, but rather highlights the struggles of women in the real world. Walters, on the other hand, seems to be more in control from the get go. Women are often asked to hold back or compromise their own feelings to ensure that those around them have the space to grow. “I think my boyfriend is here,” Walters says, a statement that many women have used in the real world to escape a harrowing situation.

Even if Doom does make his debut this year, that doesn’t necessarily mean he’ll have any connection to Jameela Jamil’s Titania.

[several decades of comics](https://www.polygon.com/23311380/she-hulk-free-comics-marvel-qr-code-link), and it’s telling that She-Hulk’s iterations fall in line with a more conventionally attractive body type. That the show is able to address the undercurrent of anger that comes with feminism is a step toward acknowledging rage as merely a valid response to a world that is broadly inhumane, in ways big and small, to women every day. It’s a double-edged sword that the creators behind She-Hulk know too well. “Those are like the baseline of any woman just existing.” It’s a point she’ll hit harder later in the episode, after weeks of training to be dexterous and zen so as to not accidentally Hulk out. [She-Hulk: Attorney at Law](https://www.polygon.com/23291038/she-hulk-creators-disney-vfx-union) makes its thesis statement about 13 minutes into its first episode: When Bruce Banner (Mark Ruffalo) tells his cousin — newly Hulked, thanks to an accident — Jen Walters (Tatiana Maslany) that the triggers are anger and fear, she scoffs.

She-Hulk introduces Jennifer Walters (Tatiana Maslany), cousin of Bruce Banner (Mark Ruffalo) and attorney at law who has the unique ability to break the fourth ...

For the first time since the Avengers films, Bruce refers to Hulk as "the Other Guy" to explain how crucial it is that Jen gets control over her hulk side. After a long day of training, Bruce and Jen go to Bruce’s Bar and bond over a couple, several, drinks in Hulk form. The situations he gives to Jen range from The Avengers, Age of Ultron, and Thor: Ragnarok, which all feature iconic moments of Hulk to Bruce transformations. While we have all enjoyed these moments as audience members, it’s fun to be reminded of the events through Bruce as he shares them from his perspective. Raising and lowering his hands, Bruce speaks in a low voice to get Jen to emerge. Feeling confident about her ability to maintain consciousness as She-Hulk, Bruce reminds Jen that she still can’t control how and when she transforms. Though he tried to play it cool, Bruce definitely welled up at the mention of Bing-Bong, and who can blame him? Sakaar is the planet that Hulk landed on after the events of Avengers: Age of Ultron, and it is where the majority of Thor: Ragnarok is set. Jen suggests putting on a Pixar movie, citing the tear-jerking moment from Inside Out when Bing-Bong jumps out of the wagon to save Joy from being lost forever. While we learn later that Jen’s experience is much different from Bruce’s and that she has already refined her anger to use at will, at this moment, Bruce hopes to determine a threshold to give Jen an upper hand. It’s also a callback to Avengers: Age of Ultron when Tony posed the question to Bruce, “What if you were sipping margaritas on a sun-drenched beach, turning brown instead of green, and not looking over your shoulder?” Considering the majority of all Phase Four projects have taken place post-blip, there are five years of time that have been unexplored for the surviving Avengers and She-Hulk’s first episode does a great job at giving us a glimpse of how Bruce spent that time. She-Hulk introduces Jennifer Walters (Tatiana Maslany), cousin of Bruce Banner (Mark Ruffalo) and attorney at law who has the unique ability to break the fourth wall and talk directly to the audience.

The first episode of She-Hulk: Attorney at Law contains several easter eggs and references that longtime Marvel fans are sure to notice.

In the comics, Jennnifer Walters is shot by a mobster and critically injured, forcing Bruce Banner to provide her with a blood transfusion to save her life and infect her blood with that of the Hulks. [ordinary life as a lawyer](https://gamerant.com/she-hulk-daredevil-mcu-attorneys/), she believes that her time as a Hulk is long behind her, and what was a wild week, will remain just that. They have fought on multiple occasions, and the MCU is just the beginning of their rivalry. [open wound caused by a car crash](https://gamerant.com/new-she-hulk-clip-good-bad-parts-being-hulk-marvel/) leaves Jennifer Walters exposed to a bleeding Bruce Banner, whose droplets of blood get into her wound and infect her bloodstream. On his bar, the initials “B.B.” and “T.S.” are carved into the wooden surface. The ship is of Sakaaran design, and the people on Sakaar celebrated Hulk like a god for being a fierce gladiator. Bruce Banner takes Jennifer Walters to his Mexico hideout to help her control her new powers and responsibility as a Hulk. This is known as a fourth wall break, and although it breaks the immersion of a solidified cinematic universe existing in its plain, it is completely in character for Jennifer Walters and She-Hulk to do. In She-Hulk: Attorney at Law, Bruce’s hideaway in Mexico has one of the destroyed Iron Legion masks as décor. This is depicted in the show a few times already, much like how Deadpool would, but less vulgar and crass. It’s a fun meta-reference and shows how She-Hulk isn’t shy to poke fun at itself. The series is one episode in, and already is ripe with easter eggs that only die-hard Marvel fans would notice.

She-Hulk's post credit scene just answered one of the biggest questions people had about Captain America.

We think maybe there was a spark there with Natasha Romanov. Not sure who it was or when it happened, but apparently he told Bruce Banner that it actually happened. Apparently, it was with someone on a 1943 USO tour back in his heyday. And, clearly, there was something there with Sharon Carter — the niece of the love interest he left behind in the past. This has easily become one of the most divisive (and hilarious) debates about MCU canon. “CAPTAIN AMERICA FUUUUUU-.” And there we have it, y’all.

Bruce's living situation in the series premiere of She-Hulk: Attorney at Law was actually set up in Avengers: Age of Ultron.

[Marvel Studios' She-Hulk: Attorney at Law](https://thedirect.com/tags/she-hulk-series/) drops new episodes on Thursdays on Disney+, with the next one arriving on Thursday, August 25. In Episode 1 of She-Hulk: Attorney at Law, it's revealed that Bruce Banner has his own little hideaway in a remote portion of Mexico. All's well that ends well though, because the brawl eventually dies down, with Bruce recognizing that Jen has far greater control over her powers than he himself did for a long time. He has gone from a giant, rage-filled brute with a propensity for large-scale destruction to the quieter, more reserved Smart Hulk, a fusion of both the Banner and Hulk halves. It's in the premiere episode that audiences learn quite a bit about how the Hulk actually works and what triggers transformations.

She-Hulk showrunner Jessica Gao credits MCU producer Kevin Feige for confirming how Chris Evan's Captain American lost his virgnity in the new Disney+ ...

But he also offered up one other — and now correct — suggestion. “What have we always wanted to see in the MCU?” she said. “And I think for so long he just refuses to bleed on people. “I couldn’t believe that we got to definitively settle that issue once and for all.” He lost his virginity to a girl in 1943 on the USO tour.” So it’s hard to explore a guy who doesn’t want to make waves with his own personal conflict.” He’s probably a virgin! He’s probably a virgin. “Our philosophy was really just like let’s just do things until they tell us we can’t because if you start asking for permission too much, then you’re giving people a chance to say no,” she said. Evans went on to encourage the prospect of seeing an onscreen relationship with a woman for Steve but admitted that he thought Steve was probably a virgin. But with Jennifer wearing him down, a trusted Bruce eventually blurts out, “Steve Rogers is not a virgin. “There are some things like Captain America’s virginity that really surprised us that it kept going.”

Costar Ginger Gonzaga, series creator Jessica Gao, and director Kat Coiro join Maslany to talk about where the series fits in the Marvel Cinematic Universe.
