Daredevil: A way to introduce She-Hulk

In case you haven't heard, (shame on you), Marvel Studios and Netflix have teamed up to bring us four series based on Marvel characters: Daredevil, Luke Cage, Iron Fist, and Jessica Jones, all leading to a mini-series about the MCU's version of the Defenders.

Daredevil is reportedly the first of these that will be coming to our screens, and he should be the most recognizable to movie-goers, because of the 2003 film based on the character. With a promise of at least 13 episodes per series, I expect we'll get more character development than a 2 hour movie could provide. This means we should see more of Matt Murdock, and the law side of his life.

This seems like a perfect way to introduce Jennifer Walters, aka She-Hulk, into the MCU. Small at first, just plant the seed. But gradually, she could become a more important recurring character throughout the MCU. Then, as her importance grows, she could transition from Jennifer into the She-Hulk, giving more of a supporting cast to the Hulk, who is the "adopted child" of the MCU films so far.

Now, obviously, I don't want her to be the focus. This should be Daredevil, not Daredevil-and-She-Hulk. But with fans screaming for more Hulk action, no live-action version of the character yet, and an entire lawyer-based aspect that should come with the show, she should at least exist in some manner.

I'm Back!

Hey all!

So, it's been a while -- about four months, actually -- since I've posted. Not since Chicago Comic Con have I published a new post. A lot has happened for me since then! I got a new job, moved, and got real busy with actual work, and unfortunately this had to go to the side. But I've got a little time now, so I'm back, even if it's on a lesser level than I was before.

Lots of news has come up since I left - Ben Affleck is Batman, Age of Ultron is coming, Paul Rudd is Ant-Man, the MCU Netflix project, the Sinister Six is coming....lots and lots has happened! I'm not going to go into depth about things that people have already gotten over, but I have a lot of thoughts built up that I'm excited to start have conversations about!

Hope you're ready!
