On September 1, Episode 3 of She-Hulk: Attorney At Law arrived on Disney+. The hilarious MCU comedy is a bit more workplace comedy than it is a superhero show. However, the show is filled with Easter eggs to other MCU movies and references to Marvel Comics, and you might have missed a few of them.
In Episode 3, Jennifer Walters is tasked with defending Emil Blonksy, who is up for parole. However, everyone is aware he broke free from prison for that fight at the Golden Daggers Club in Macau, but that wasn't his fault. Walters has to find the one person who can vouch for Blonsky to get her case together. Also, there's a storyline with a coworker getting scammed by an elf pretending to be Megan Thee Stallion. Yes, this show is out there.
Below, you'll find some of the Easter eggs and references from this week's episode of She-Hulk: Attorney At Law. If you're looking for more on the show, check out Easter eggs to Episode 1 and Episode 2.
Inspired by reality
When the She-Hulk TV series was announced, there were some folks on the internet very displeased about this show that no one was forcing them to watch, and they made plenty of comments online about how angry they were there was a female-led superhero TV show that was the cousin of an already-established character. That's poked fun at here, as we see a brief selection of fictional comments on a video, which feel very real.
Gideon Wilson
Here's a deep cut. On She-Hulk, Gideon Wilson was the lawyer that put Abomination behind bars. In the comics, Gideon is Sam Wilson's (Captain America) brother, who became part of the super-powered Gamma Corps after blaming Hulk for his son's death--and the Hulk had nothing to do with it.
Mallory Book
In the comics, Book is Jennifer Walters' rival, as both work at Goodman, Lieber, Kurtzberg, & Halloway. Walters breaks Book's winning-streak defending Hercules. The two have a long-standing rivalry in the She-Hulk comics.
Dennis Bukowski
Bukowski is an assistant DA in the comics. And much like the character on the show, he's a bit despicable. He's self-absorbed and a bit of dumb-dumb.
Why Wong broke Abomination out of prison
Wong needed a worthy opponent to become Sorcerer Supreme--against Abomination's will. Have you ever heard of a Kumite?
Megan Thee Stallion
Hey, it's Grammy award-winner Megan Thee Stallion. Ok, so it's technically a shapeshifter that Dennis spent $175k on, but Megan is playing that part for a moment.
Megan also pops up later in the episode as herself after the judge's ruling in Runa's case. Because there's only one Megan Thee Stallion.
Runa
On She-Hulk, Runa is the daughter of a Elfin diplomat living in New Asgard, and she's a shapeshifter, primarily parading around as Megan Thee Stallion. The comic version of Runa is very different--if the MCU version is even based on this character. Rūna is a Valkyrie--one of the original nine to be specific--for All-Father Bor, the one-time ruler of Asgard.
The Wrecking Crew!
On her way home, Walters comes across the villainous team of The Wrecking Crew, holding Asgardian weapons--which are superpowered. Here we see (from left to right) Bulldozer, Wrecker, Piledriver, and Thunderball. This is a team that debuted in 1974 in an issue of The Defenders, and they've been C-List villains for the entirety of their existence.
Who is their boss? Could it be Zemo or The Hood? Who knows at this time, but there's a chance it could also be Titania.
