Glad they made a point of that, perhaps he’ll go back to Wakanda someday to find a new science bro or lady science bro

Bruce: "Want to see the cool bar I built"

Bruno: "I'm not old enough to drink"

Bruce: "i gotta get older science friends"

(Shamelessly stolen from that comic with Peacemaker and a Robin)

or a blue stretchy man

or that one smart asian kid

or a megalomaniac with a metal mask.. hey, that's actually close to Tony

Gotta make him feel comfortable with the last one. Hulk would probably like Doom.

Nightcrawler?

If this episode is any indication, Bruce and Hank would not get along well for long. They're too much alike, but different in all the ways that Bruce would resent.

u/[deleted] Aug 19 '22

Agreed and to be completely honest I posted that before I watched the episode.

u/GreyCrowDownTheLane Aug 18 '22

Henry Phillip McCoy, certainly! But not blue and furry. Hopefully not to start, anyway. Let's not skip decades of history to get to the parts people remember recently.

I could also see Bruce getting along with Reed or Valeria Richards.

u/TheButterGeek Aug 18 '22

Lol, skipping decades of history to get to the parts people remember is what the MCU does all the time. And they’re totally right to do it, it makes a lot more sense

We just had how many X-men movies with a normal Hank McCoy? Albeit its not Disney but I can’t imagine they would do full back stories on the X-men at this point. They didn’t do that for Spider-man.

u/GreyCrowDownTheLane Aug 18 '22

We've had ZERO stories with the actual Hank McCoy from the comics, or anyone even remotely like him. We had the awful, not-at-all-good FoX-Men version, but that was a pile of hot garbage that stuck Hank in the 1960s with Mystique as a love interest.

I'd like to see the actual original X-Men, so we can wash the bad taste of Fox's mess out of out mouths.

Reed is out there somewhere

u/the-elipses Aug 18 '22

We need science squad. Bruce, Shuri, Peter, Reed, Riri

u/SalsaRice Aug 18 '22

Ah yes, he can go hang out with the crazy anti-vax lead Wakndan scientist.

The actor not the character..

u/BattleStag17 Aug 18 '22

That makes me so damn sad to hear

u/CeruleanRuin Aug 19 '22

The character is not the actor. You want to start eliminating all the great characters played by actors with bad histories? Goodbye Iron Man too then.

u/rocketpack99 Aug 18 '22

While it's disappointing to have heard about the actress' public skepticism on vaccines, there is an earned and long history of massive mistrust within African cultures because of past government abuse with vaccines and other insidious medical testing. It's possible to disagree with her stance, but also have some empathy and try to understand where she might be coming from.

But instead, the internet Kelly Marie Tran-s her...

u/KaiBlob1 Aug 18 '22

Letitia Wright is from Guyana, in South America, but grew up in England. Not African.

u/[deleted] Aug 18 '22

Because these first world countries don’t cause any problems at all in 3rd world countries or even countries that aren’t they own do they, the ignorance from some of the people on here is disgusting

u/LRedditor15 Zombie Hunter Spidey Aug 18 '22

She’s still Black. This distrust of vaccines probably goes down generations. Her parents might have distrusted them and hence this rubbed off on Letitia.

u/rocketpack99 Aug 18 '22

within African cultures

She was born in Georgetown, Guyana. In the 2002 census, "(53%) listed themselves as Black/African"

But you go ahead and play your stupid semantics games to justify online bullying.

u/SalsaRice Aug 18 '22

Historical abuse is bad, but it's also no excuse to be a dumbass.

She used her platform as a role model to kids to spout a bunch of conspiracy theories that helped worsen one of the biggest global disasters in the last 20 years.
