The third episode of She-Hulk is still a topic of conversation among Marvel fans. The episode was mostly in a discussion about its mid-credit scene, where She-Hulk is twerking with Megan Thee Stallion. The scene between She-Hulk and Megan Thee Stallion took over the internet after the release of the episode. It created a sort of ‘Love it or hate it, but you can’t ignore it,’ moment for the episode.
Many loved the scene, whereas many even complained about how the scene was unnecessary and doesn’t fit with the story. There were many arguments about the character and its portrayal in the show, but that is not something new for the show, as the show has been facing criticism for one thing or another ever since the release of its trailer.
Fans Come to She-Hulk’s Defense
However, this time many came to the defense of She-Hulk, claiming that people only hated it cause it was a woman, and they would have celebrated if Ryan Reynolds had done something like this as Deadpool.
