She-Hulk Episode Might Feature Iron Man 3 Easter Egg

She-Hulk: Attorney at Law is now streaming on Disney+ and fans are quickly discovering just how many Easter eggs a single episode can contain. As more and more MCU references from She-Hulk episode 1 come to light, one of the more interesting ones some have spotted is a connection to Iron Man 3... 

(WARNING: She-Hulk Episode 1 SPOILERS Follow!) 

After Jennifer Walters (Tatiana Maslany) Hulks out for the first time, Bruce Banner/Hulk is forced to take her down and abscond with her to a remote tropical island for some Hulk training. When Jennifer first wakes up in Bruce’s beach bungalo, her cousin is no where to be found. Jen takes a moment to explore the property, and discovers this little relic from Tony Stark’s Iron Man armory: 

According to records, this looks like the Mark XX armor from Iron Man 3‘s Iron Legion – aka the “Python” armor. The Python armor’s special feature was it’s power storing capabilities, allowing Iron Man to travel longer distances without completely losing power. It was named after a python snake, which has similar capabilities. The Mark XX was denoted to be the second strongest armor in the Iron Man 3 official game – potentially the strongest one, when augmented with the Striker Missile power-up. 

Bruce Banner clearly kept this particular piece of armor as a testament to his dead friend Tony Stark – as also (tragically) noted in the “B.B + T.S.” inscription they made together while hanging out in the island home during years of The Blip. The Mark XX would be a particularly notable example of Tony Stark’s engineering genius – although the shattered helmet piece also gives us serious vibes form Ultron’s initial form as shattered remains of Iron Man armor. That’s probably on purpose. 

As stated, She-Hulk does a great job of adding flourishes like this, which connect the legal comedy series to so much other superhero lore form across the MCU. 

From our own review of She-Hulk: 

“Almost from the first frame, what makes She-Hulk stand out from its Disney+ predecessors is its reverential, but refreshing, approach to its source material… She-Hulk elects to blend together some of the best parts of Jen’s incredibly distinct solo runs…. This creates a surreal sense of novelty for fans familiar with She-Hulk comics, as well as an incredible jumping-on point for anyone new to them, as even the smallest Easter egg has a dense (but never overwhelming) sense of lore around it.
