'She-Hulk: Attorney at Law' wants to be more Fleabag than 'Falcon and Winter Soldier.' Sometimes, it works.
It’s still raunchier than the mostly sexless MCU, though, including Jennifer’s obsession with whether Captain America was a virgin.has a harder time distinguishing itself in live action than its heroine has on the page, largely because of the difference between the MCU in 2022 and Marvel Comics in the mid-to-late Eighties, when She-Hulk first started to get silly.
The show takes most of its premise from Slott’s mid-2000s run, where Jennifer was hired by a firm opening up a new superhuman law division, with one catch: To Jennifer’s dismay, the head of the firm was only interested in employing her petite human self, not her swole emerald alter ego.
It’s a character arc better suited to an origin story — and one likely to conclude with this Jennifer also recognizing that being She-Hulk is something to celebrate — butloses some inherent fun in the shift. Just as challenging is that even though the MCU has been around for 14 years, it’s still drastically less populated with superheroes, supervillains, and just plain weirdness than a comic-book universe where dozens of different titles have been published every month for decades on end.
It’s a pitfall of having a live-action character who is in Hulk form so much of the time, whereas Ruffalo, Edward Norton, and Eric Bana have all mostly appeared as Banner in their films, with only intermittent appearances of the big, inarticulate guy.
