She Hulk writer says it's 'most comics accurate show' in the MCU

While offering twists on what we expect from a standard Marvel show, She-Hulk: Attorney at Law did suffer in a number of ways.

If it wasn't the pedantic adults criticising the show before it had even aired, it was the surprise that it included the fourth-wall breaking moments that the character was oft to do in her original panels in the comics. And if it wasn't the meta, it was the disappointing realisation that those slightly shoddy effects were the product of overworked VFX artists.

Irrespective of all of this, She-Hulk made it to the finale, which was well received for its acerbic scrutiny of the formulaic structure of many of its own movies and the Marvel Cinematic Universe's reliance on its male heroes and villains to make up the majority of the canon.

In case you missed it, here's the trailer for She-Hulk:

Months after the end of the show, it seems that She-Hulk's existence is still a bone to pick for critics, and comic book writer Dan Slott doesn't sound interested in offering fuel to the fire. "I'm the guy who has written more issues of She-Hulk than anyone. I've read every single comic from every She-Hulk run. And I'm saying, for the record, it is the MOST comic book accurate show in the MCU," he said in a show of support on Twitter. This incited... rather a lot of discussion.

"Love the goal post moving, cause the whole 'the show isn't comic accurate' talking point has been going on for MONTHS. From people who clearly have never read She-Hulk," continued the writer. To be fair, he is the most expert of experts when it comes to the character so I'm content to take his word for it. It is a shame though that we have to have these conversations about female-centric shows and movies in the first instance.
