    No but it's not gonna end any time soon either. And even when it does "end", it's only a matter of time before it's all rebooted again.

    Because that's what makes the character unique, his raison d'etre, the draw, the dang sales pitch for the character.

    It's what separates him from an endless parade of big, tough (but not really) guys who exist to be the "muscle" on a team, a term here that means to lift heavy things, do what they're told, and getting beaten down to show how dangerous the bad guys are.

    A horrible state of existence that guts like Collusus and the Thing have been stuck in since the 90s.

    I'd rather the Hulk punch the Avenger's in the face and tell them where to stick it than become their domesticated pet, even if it means he's an outcast forever. And I'd rather Bruce be dead than a lobotomized, castrated shell of himself to prop up Jen's show, the McMurphy to her Nurse Ratched.

    Because actors get old and unlike comics these are gigantic productions with a lot of moving parts. We are very lucky to have these shows and be able to enjoy them at this particular period in history but at some point the people working in front and behind the scenes will get old, the old guards will retire, new people will take over, shifts in culture and politics will impact these shows. We have already seen delays thanks to Covid. We should enjoy it while it lasts.

    Guaranteed downer endings are just as bad as guaranteed happy endings.

    Man-Elephant is meh, but we definitely need some Savage stuff in the show. Ultima, Zapper, Nick Trask... take your pick.

    A lot of PAD's run on Hulk was not about tragedy. At times it was almost a downright humor book.

    Yeah, me too. But I am over those 1or 2 panel fights where She-Hulk easily bests Titania. Titania is one of the strongest female characters and perhaps the strongest female villain. Titania can lift 100 tons (at least) and the fight should be a good one with Titania sometimes winning too. It is dull and boring when Jen 1-shots Titania.

    Feige saying she's 6'7+ also basically confirms she'll be CGI.

    Yeah, I think that's a reasonable assumption.

    She-Hulk vs Stunner would be a good move, as well as She-Hulk vs The Kingpin....

    How the heck would She-Hulk vs. Kingpin be good?
