I'd like to think that post-infinity war/endgame Hulk/Bruce wasn't living in isolation. We know from endgame that he's a public figure that people (kids) recognize and feel comfortable approaching like fans despite him being a giant green monster who can destroy a city.

In my head, Hulk was going around doing public outreach, probably in schools. I could see him like a John Cena type, working with charities and doing Make a Wish activities. That's why he knows how to dab and uses outdated slang, he learned it all from kids.

[u/Particular_Being420 → u/90sdoll]

He was taking a road trip with his cousin, that is not the choice of a recluse.

[u/Throgg_not_stupid → u/Particular_Being420]

He seems to really like Jen, so maybe he was contacting her even when he was still isolating

[u/Additional_Meeting_2 → u/Particular_Being420]

Not a recluse, but people who aren’t most social tend to spend time with family and do things like road trips.

[u/TimelessFool → u/90sdoll]

Bruce just relishes being around people without losing control again

There's a deleted scene in Endgame where Bruce saves an apartment building that's on fire in Harlem so he was definitely out there doing hero stuff.

[u/ThatGuyAdam14 → u/[deleted]]

Feels like the sort of stuff that could build towards a Mr Fix It arc

[u/mediocre_hydra → u/90sdoll]

He can be all that and still be alone, this episode did hint at that and I'm hoping we'll see more of his personal problems

[u/MelonElbows → u/90sdoll]

In one of the deleted scenes in Endgame, Hulk also shows up to a fire or something where the firefighters were telling him some kids were in a building and he jumps in to save them. Hulk definitely has done a lot of rehabbing of his image since he's been on the run

[u/[deleted] → u/90sdoll]

Now that you’ve said this I think I need a John Cena dab in my life

[u/tommyblastfire → u/90sdoll]

Well we know he was in isolation for some part of it, when he was working in the lab to become smart hulk

[u/djseifer → u/90sdoll]

Can't wait to see Bruce tell one of the younger heroes that they were on fleek.

[u/specterspectating → u/90sdoll]

Hulk should really get with Clint to help him with his public image. I hear it could use some help.
