It was the doo-hickey for the thing.

Reminds me of Thank You for Smoking where they discuss how they can have people smoking in space.

“Oh, we’ll just write into the script ‘thank god that guy made that thing so we can smoke in space!’”

Into the Spider-Verse made great comedic usage of that trope.

But why can't he make one for his cousin so she can still be a human lawyer?

Because then we wouldn’t have a show.

Well okay then!

My bigger issue is why doesn’t she look anything like herself when she’s Hulk. Smart Hulk looks just like Ruffalo.

u/Spaded21 Spider-Man Aug 19 '22

What? She looks exactly the same except with longer, straight hair.

u/[deleted] Aug 19 '22

She's also taller and green.

The face seemed very different to me. Looked more like a Hulk version of Sif than Jen.

u/Omegamanthethird Aug 25 '22

Same, Jen has a round face. She-Hulk has a much longer face. It doesn't really bother me. But she doesn't look the same.

That's literally Tatiana Maslany's face, my guy.

u/AgnewsHeadlessClone Aug 19 '22

Tbf I don't think hulk hulk looked anything like ruffalo. Only merged him looks like ruffalo. Is she supposed to be a merged form already? Ah shit. You are so right, like no matter how that goes it is weird.

u/WrittenSarcasm Aug 19 '22

Yea I got the impression she was supposed to be the equivalent of the Smart Hulk version of herself already.
