She-hulk is better than him in every single way. The show is dripping in misandry. Pretty much every scene had some form of a put down for a man

How cringey was the Captain America is a virgin thing? I’ve seen a heavily edited version of the scene and I just don’t know how writers thought that that was anything other than shit, I thought maybe the full scene might make sense. I really don’t want to give the show viewing figures, so I’m going to exploit your sacrifice as far as I can.

The entire scene itself is dogshit. Hulk gets cut and dribbles a bit of blood on her and suddenly she turns into she hulk. Her entire origin story takes about five minutes

Ahh, doesn’t Banner give her a blood transfusion to save her in the comic? They have a rule at Disney now don’t they that no woman or girl can be saved by a man (even 10 year old Leia was annoyed at being saved by Obi-wan and claimed she was doing it herself iirc), so I guess they had to change that.

Yeah in the old comics, it was a blood transfusion that caused the transformation. He hesitated at first, but he was the only available candidate at the time. Probably matching blood types.
