Can you please do a Doctor Doom History of episode?

[@kingshadow8782]

Nice

[@SpaghettiLord323]

The show did not come out today bro had my hopes up but now...😡

[@DonutLord67]

Worst image you could have used for the thumbnail

[@gryphoncompanion]

I have to pay money to gain access to keep a collection list? That's absolutely stupid. I can keep track for free all by myself.

[@DanBrownPierces]

My favorite take on her strength was during Slott’s run, where we learned She-Hulk’s strength was a multiple of Jen’s. So if Jen worked out and became stronger, She-Hulk would become stronger as a result.

[@djfunkgut]

Yes!! I liked that idea

[@JonCollinsMedia]

Nah that's wack

[@TheIllustriouBlueJay]

@@JonCollinsMedia no, that makes complete sense.

[@rikudoubapeck]

It's not a multiple or a fixed correlation. Her strength as Jen is exponentially relative to her strength as She Hulk but if base Jen who doesn't lift has a She Hulk form that can lift trillions of tons then a Jen who undergoes intense combat and weight training is that much more powerful on a hulk scale. So if base Jen strength = 5 then her Hulk Jen form is like 1,000,000 then buffed Jen's strength is 50 then her Hulk form DOESN'T get a flat 10x multiplier. She gets exponentially stronger so instead of having like 10,000,000 strength as She Hulk she somehow jumps to like 900,000,000,000 or something ridiculous. The point is the strength boost isn't a simple multiplier it's waaaaaaaay bigger

[@wyvvernstone]

Like a Saiyan. Their transformations become stronger if they train in base form.

[@uzombachiemeka6831]

Sadly she doesn’t embody this in the series

[@quentinfogger5755]

I was first introduced to the She-Hulk in the animated series of the Incredible Hulk outside the comics and when I was small, I thought she was called "green lady"

[@knghtgraphixstudios5475]

I can't believe that this ignored John Byrne's run on She-Hulk. He was the writer and artist of the Fantastic 4 when he put her in with the team. Byrne's writing gave her the outgoing personality and permanent transformation in the She-Hulk graphic novel. He also wrote and drew the Sensational She-hulk series which broke the forth wall before Deadpool. Dan Slott? John Byrne.....give credit where its due.

[@treymykel]

I mean they use these muscular She-Hulk as the promotion of the video so you already knew they were not really going to talk about the John Byrne run.

[@robertbartelt6032]

I was going to say, " "Dan Slott also injected a lot more comedy in the 2005 She-Hulk Series...." So...did you just read the first issue of John Byrne's Sensational She-Hulk then stop?" My favorite scene from a comic book ever is when She-Hulk tears the page to get further ahead in the story and runs across a fake ad for Mile High Comics which was in every comic book you bought in the late 80s. Have you ever read the whole fake ad? It's the funniest thing I've ever seen in comics.

[@Just_Some_Guy_with_a_Mustache]

The closest thing Marvel has ever had to naturally having a Wonder Woman. She was breaking the fourth wall before Deadpool even existed (and in some cases did it better because her fourth wall-breaking was on the level of Looney Tunes). Plus, she...awakened something in a lot of people.

[@emanuelrojas2]

She the original bricc girl

[@1973Ganesh]

That last part though

[@timepassedLS]

you need to read more deadpool comics if you think that lmao

12:41 Shulkie wasn't only trained in hand-to-hand combat by Captain America, she also was trained by Gamora.

I absolutely love the She-Hulk character. I always have done since the Incredible Hulk animated show I watched as a kid.

I'm glad that mcu she hulk still looks like she hulk and not just Hulk but girl. The hulk is Rage personified and Rage is unmanageable whereas she hulk is confidence personified and confidence is manageable

I saw that Charile Cox was credited to all 9 episodes of She Hulk. I can't wait for a Daredevil return that isn't a minute long

[@JonCollinsMedia]

They're gonn team up as lawyers, that'll be his main role I think. We'll see him a lot more on his reboot show though.

He wasn't in ep 1.

[@bigneon_glitter]

John Byrne's _Sensational She-Hulk_ run was Deadpool by way of _Ally McBeal_ & way ahead of it's time. It's been a weird missed opportunity for decades that David E Kelley never adapted it.

[@stevengibson9768]

And since DC's The Sandman series came out on Netflix, please do a History of DC's Sandman

[@HariOmRadhaKrishna]

I don't have it in my little collection anymore, but I remember buying Savage She-Hulk 1 when it came out.

I bet Deadpool’s thinking she’s breaking the fourth wall in mcu before I could, not on my watch

[@KingOfThaDead64]

She was breaking the 4th wall before he was created.

[@robertw31968]

I loved She-Hulk in AGENTS of SMASH cartoon. That show is where I learned of A-Bomb and Skaar also. It was a great cartoon in my opinion I wish they were still doing it.

[@ChineduOpara]

We wish for many things hahah

[@grayrook8637]

I dont suppose we will be getting absorbing man for this series? Him and Titania and kinda a pair being married, and a pretty healthy one at that. Actually makes them a super interesting pair, real relatable Bonnie and Clyde vibe.

Remember She-Hulk in the Fantastic Four Animated series?

[@RacerC45]

Fun fact: Wyatt Wingfoot was also the roommate of Johnny Storm aka Human Torch.

Speaking of She-Hulk, Can you do comic book origin of the She-Hulk villains like Nicholas Trask, The Grappler, Robert Doom, Clockwise, Ultima, The Living Eraser, The American Purity Foundation, Ruby Thursday, Adrenazon, Spragg the Living Hell, Behemoth, Volcana and Titania?

8:10 - I forgot She-Hulk was also in the PS1 Fantastic Four video game (it was far from perfect but I liked it)

[@quentinfogger5755]

So when are you going to do history of DC Despero since he is one of the biggest Justice League Villians from the Comics?

[@quentinfogger5755]

Can you do history of the Elementals, Cyclone and Sandman along with Kurt Conners the Lizard, Rhino, Kraven the Hunter, Chameleon, Scorpion and the Human Fly along with Karl Fiers the Finisher, Alistair Smythe the Ultimate Spider Slayer, Living_Brain, and Prowler?

[@SpammytheHedgehog]

[@CreyParkFilms]

Wow! You didn't mention John Byrne once. Way more influential to the current state of She-Hulk than Slott.

I don’t think the first episode dropped yet

[@mrmysterious8124]

Can you look at the History of The Brain from Teen Titans/Doom Patrol🤖🧠

[@SteveSiferd-ex5yg]

You completely omitted John Byrne, who elevated the character from the background to the forefront by making her part of the FF. He also introduced the fourth wall breaking and the comedy which clearly had a big influence on the Disney+ series. Pretty glaring omission.

[@quentinfogger5755]

Who do you think is better and would win between She-Hulk and Red She-Hulk? Do you think we will see this taking place in the MCU? Can you do history of Red She-Hulk,Amadeus_Cho, Skarr and A-Bomb?

[@quentinfogger5755]

How long till you do history of America-Chavez, Speed and Wiccan since these Young Avengers played a major role in Doctor Strange in the Multiverse of Madness? Can you please do history of them in honour of the release of Doctor Strange in the Multiverse of Madness?

[@AmJustMaiko]

ngl, my first encounter with she hulk in marvel was through marvel super hero squad the game. I was like 7 or 8 when I got that game and thought she was an interesting character. She was paired with the hulk in one of the levels. It was like a nightmare level about cake for some reasons but yeah she hulk there was alright as the first look into the character.
