"So you've come to the end now alive but dead inside."
I dearly hope the show isn't based on Aaron's take. It'll be a waste of a once in a lifetime opportunity.
I'm hoping the fact that Loki is referencing the TVA means that someone at Marvel Studios has at least read Slott's run.
We are the Dora Milaje. We are the daughters of the 18 tribes of Wakanda. We are the teeth of the Panther God. Out of 10,000 years of sweat and bloodshed and battle are we born. We are the women of this ancient land. Deadliest of the species. And our time has come!
I could live with that, considering Jen journeyed the same road in her original comic book. I'd also be okay with her occasionally going beserk and becoming Savage She-Hulk but not her Savage or Brute side being her default form. Current Brute Hulk Jen is a hard pass in my eyes. I hate the character as it represents a needless devolution of Jen.

I'm curious how they'll handle the design, especially if they go with CGI.
They will almost certainly go CGI for this. The amount of tall actresses that can be asked to carry the weight of a production of this scale can be counted with one hand, and none of them have the physical presence of a Hulk. This leaves three options if you went this route: bulking the actress up (good luck convincing any to throw away other roles for years to do this), fitting her with prosthetics (extremely time-consuming, not ideal for a TV production), or using CGI on her (and if you do this you might as well just gone for full CGI anyway).
Good CGI is cheaper than ever, and if this series costs $10-15 million per episode like the other Marvel TV series reportedly are, they will almost certainly be able to have She-Hulk show up for 5-10 minutes every episode with wise scripting and budgeting. They'll just have Jennifer's actress fitted with mo-cap for those scenes and work with it from there.
I wouldn't even be surprised if Marvel's choice for Jennifer is someone more known for mo-cap in AAA video games (like, say, Laura Bailey) over primarily screen actresses, because of how important it is to nail those scenes when She-Hulk shows up (especially if the plan is for She-Hulk to become more and more dominant over time). I'd personally question the wisdom of the decision, but I could see the logic behind it.

I'd prefer CGI as well. I think it would allow for a more fluid, animated appearance which would help whenever Jen transforms as well provide the direct performance the creators of the show envisioned.
Sidenote, I'm loving artist Dima Ivanov's take of She-Hulk. I hope he could one day draw some covers for a future solo series for Marvel.

I think they're gonna have to go the CGI, mo-cap suit route
They spent too much time and money improving on their cgi mocap, they ain't gonna stop now. Professor Hulk in Endgame felt like precursor/prototype.
Can anyone clue me in on why the sensational she hulk the return John Byrne trade omits issue 47? It's got 31 to 46 then 48 to 50.
Is there a reason?
