The Blade groundwork laid in She-Hulk: Attorney at Law episode 7, which dropped on Thursday, 29 September 2022! A rundown of all the various characters plus the key points, the analysis, the Easter eggs and where all of this goes next.
This post runs briefly through the things that caught my eye on a first viewing and the Easter eggs, and then gets into the analysis.
Spoilers ahead
For the episode-by-episode reviews of the shows that aired earlier, click the images below!
Started shooting all sorts of things for fun lately. The camera is an α7 IV — shoot in RAW, edit in Lightroom, that kind of thing.
Josh, the guy Jen met back in episode 6, turns out to be a HulkKing devotee after all… Poor Jen…
Josh stole the data off Jen’s phone and took a photo of her sleeping face. The blood is the sticking point, though — there’s no scene of it being drawn. You’d obviously notice a needle going in and know blood had been taken, so did he really draw any? Or is Josh secretly on her side and didn’t take it at all?
Episode 7 is the one where she goes out to Blonsky’s community! Ahh, Jen in the support group with that lot had me howling lol Those support-group scenes you get every so often in American shows are the best.
The credits scene gave us the parts the episode itself never covered!!
Everyone piling into the sauna together is so warm, and then there’s El Águila bullfighting back in his university days, and Porcupine dropping things off at the dry cleaner’s! I want every Marvel show to be telling story over the end credits like this lol
El Águila, Man-Bull, Porcupine and Saracen, the ones who show up this time, all seem to be minor villains in the comics! Saracen was the only one nothing came up for lol
Genuinely such a fun bunch, and a properly great episode! Want them back again~~
One of the Wrecking Crew from episode 2, was it? coming back, of all things lol
When he turned up again this time I genuinely had no idea who he was lol Glad Jen ran the flashback for us~ lol
Saracen calling himself a vampire, plus that loaded answer about his father — groundwork for the vampire lore coming in Blade, maybe?? So excited~~~~
Thought El Águila was just an ordinary guy, but he turns out to be a superhuman who controls bioelectricity lol So does that mean mutant…?? What a mystery of a character lol
