REVIEW: She-Hulk: Attorney at Law – Season 1, Episode 7 “The Retreat”
I suppose “The Retreat” is better than last week’s episode of She-Hulk, if only because the last twenty seconds – and only the last twenty seconds – advance the plot. The rest is just like the previous installment, a boring, pointless groan fest that does nothing for Jen’s character exce...
