Foxxy She-Hulk


The other day, between feedings and diaper changes, my mother-in-law, and my wife were relaxing while I scanned through cable channels. At one point I came upon Disney 2, which was showing the Incredible Hulk cartoon from the 1990s. Now, I’ve never seen this show because I was outta the country at the time it aired, so I’ve always been interested in it because the 2nd Season starred She-Hulk. The particular episode that was showing did have Shulkie and it was fun to see her in action. Apparently, Jennifer went home for her high school reunion and all broke hell broke lose when the Gargoyle’s minions attacked. He was in love with her and the Gargoyle thought he could force her to be his lover (makes me wonder what the Silver Age Hulk tales would have been like if She-Hulk had been around then).

Anyhoo, my wife and my mother-in-law actually watched the cartoon for a little bit. They found She-Hulk intriguing. My SO remarked, “wow! She’s really tall,” and then she explained to her mom that She-Hulk was the female Hulk in Japanese while making a few more comments. This was fun for me because my wife has seen me read the She-Hulk comics but has always tuned me out when I talked about the character before. I guess it’s another thing entirely to see She-Hulk in action even if it’s just a cartoon. I hope that Shulkie will be in the next Hulk movie that way more folks will get see how cool she really is.

After watching that episode for a while I realized that I’ve heard She-Hulk’s voice before. Rather quickly, I recognized that She-Hulk had the same voice talent as Foxxy Love from Drawn Together… minus the jive of course. Cree Summer provides the voice work for both characters. I’m thinking It would be fun if She-Hulk did have Foxxy’s speech patterns though, imagine She-Hulk saying: "Hey Hey Hey" or “I'm like Sherlock Holmes, if he played tambourine and shaved his cooch.” Hmmmm… sounds like a good idea for a youtube.

Where was I? I didn't even know they did a Hulk cartoon. Love the old school Bixby stuff though.

Southern fried GREEEEEEEEEN?

I've been away from your blog for a long time, haven't I? Sorry about that! I hope things are going well with you...and cherish your MIL! No matter how annoying they can get, you learn to appreciate them very much when they're gone.

I remember Cree Summer from "A Different World" (a spin-off of the Cosby Show). Interesting memory since it looks like most of her work has been in animation voices before and after that gig.

Randal – I didn’t know there was a Hulk Cartoon in the ‘90s either until recently… you knew about the early ‘80s one though right?

Moody – She’s been great having her here and it will be awful when she leaves. I don’t know we would have mangled these first two months without her. I hope your family is holding up well.

Dean – Eewww yuck the hulk’s her cousin Dean

Snab – I yeah I read that on wiki, it turns out I’ve watched a ton of her cartoons but I never watched a different world.

Arkonbey – you said it! Maybe in ancient Egypt.

Rob! – I NEVER take things past the world Balloon!

Pidomon – Thanks Pido!
