Why you're never skinny enough (or the opposite) and why everyone has to weigh in on it
Kill the mother-in-law (including Victoria Beckham)
First of all a clarification.
The birth of
She-Hulk
or She-Hulk
on Disney +
(pla
for friends), has not been a consequence of the well-
wisher fever
that wreaks havoc in the world of audiovisual fiction (and that causes so much anger in fans of original products, to the reactions to the changes of sex and skin color of the characters of 'Sandman', for example, not to mention 'The Bridgertons').
No. The character,
Hulk's cousin,
was born long before we saw ourselves like this, in 1979, when her first comic book was published: 'The wild Hulka 1'.
The green lawyer never had the pull of the male character, so over time she fell into
oblivion
, waiting for the times to claim a female version of whatever came to mind.
Look how lucky for Marvel that the basic work with the Hulk had already been done more than 30 years ago.
Tatiana Maslany
('Orphan Black') gives life to the protagonist of this series of superheroes that is actually a series of lawyers in a
comedy key,
which has been announced as the most feminist of Marvel.
The series does not exclude the male character of the Hulk
(Mark Ruffalo),
essential especially at the start, and in fact emphasizes the difference in 'personality' of the two versions, male and female.
What in Hulk is all overflowing cortisol, in Hulka is calculated control.
And there we begin to see that nothing is equal, cute.
Let me explain: Maslany herself has said that the series inherits from reality the training to which
women
have been subjected all their lives so as
not to react violently
to events in the environment.
That kind of
reactivity
has traditionally been
reserved for masculinity,
for better or worse.
Marvel perpetuates this distinction even when high on steroids.
No matter how green you get, if you are a woman you will not lose your papers, we read between the lines.
And finally, no matter how much transformation there is, She-Hulk will always appear as
a brush.
With
perfectly
outlined
eyebrows
,
mascara ready,
impeccable eye
-liner
and hair, like it just came out of the hairdresser's.
Neither Marvel nor anyone else seems to be able to afford, at least for now, a truly 'wild' woman.
As much as that, 'The wild She-Hulk', was the original title of the comic.
Release date of 'She-Hulk: Lawyer Hulka'
The series 'She-Hulk: Lawyer Hulka' has nine episodes and premieres on August 18 on Disney +.
