Bruce Banner's situation in She-Hulk is a cautionary tale on being a superhero left behind.
She-Hulk: Attorney at Lawto be hilarious, and it was. What I didn’t expect was how sad it would make me for Bruce Banner.The show continues the main emotional theme of many Disney + Marvel shows: how people deal with trauma. Most of the first episode ofis about Bruce Banner guiding his cousin Jennifer Walters, through her new Hulk powers out in a secluded part of Mexico.
It’s pretty clear that Bruce, for all the incredible work he has done trying to come to terms with the Hulk over 15 years, still has a long way to go. He isn’t just helping Jen learn how to be green, super strong, and angry. He is begging her to be his new support system., the original Avengers are nearly completely disassembled. Natasha, Tony, and Steve are dead, Thor is off-world, and Clint has retired to be with his family.
With that gone, Bruce doesn’t know who he is anymore. Though he is clearly very sorry for having caused Jen’s transformation, it’s impossible to miss his glee when he gets to start using her as a project. By trying to force her to go through his program, Bruce has gained a stand-in for the Avengers that he hopes will once again define him. She is a cure for his loneliness, a new Hulk that will need him for years.
It’s this rejection that pushes Bruce almost into a classic Hulk rage. He can’t admit that what he really wants is someone to depend on him the way the Avengers did. He wants to feel like he’s saving the world through Jen, two damaged people who have no choice but to occasionally be monsters. Bruce constantly portrays Hulkdom as a thing that was thrust upon them, never admitting to himself that he purposely caused the events that created the Hulk in the first place.
