**Warning – Spoilers ahead for She-Hulk: Attorney at Law**
She-Hulk: Attorney at Law has been leaning into its light-hearted, comical side for the past few episodes, but the end of this week’s entry, Episode 6, introduced Hulk King as the potential villain – but some think it’s a front for the Young Avengers’ Hulkling.
Episode 6 also saw Nikki and Mallory represent Mr. Immortal, who faked his own death many times, and Jen attended her friend’s wedding party which led to a second brawl with Titania.
Created by Jessica Gao for Disney+ and based on the Marvel Comics character of the same name, She-Hulk: Attorney at Law follows Jennifer Walters’ transformation into the green superhero, starring Tatiana Maslany, Mark Ruffalo, Jameela Jamil, Tim Roth, and more.

She-Hulk: Attorney at Law Episode 6 Introduced Hulk King
Not only did Episode 6 set up the appearance of Marvel’s sinister tech group Intelligencia, but it also may have revealed the main villain behind the hunt for She-Hulk’s blood.
The final scene of this week’s entry saw a number of lab techs in white coats jostling together with Jennifer Walters’ “macro blood” profile on one of the screens. The technician we follow then received a message.
“Is the next phase of the plan ready to go?” appeared on one screen as another technician readied a fierce-looking syringe for use.
The message was sent by “Hulk King”, and it’s a similar name to another Marvel character that seems to tease the Young Avengers.
Who is Hulkling from the Young Avengers?
Theodore Altman was the child of Captain Marvel – who was previously a man in some runs – and Princess Anelle, the daughter of the Skrull Emperor, who both had an affair while being imprisoned during the Kree-Skrull War.
The Princess soon sent Theodore to Earth, fearing for his safety, where he was raised by servant Mrs. Altman and later joined the Avengers Fail-Safe Program, or the Young Avengers.
It was within this group that Theodore took on the mantle of Hulkling – not to be mistaken for “Hulking” – and later entered into a relationship with Wiccan.
Since it’s already widely rumored that the Young Avengers is being set up within the Marvel Cinematic Universe, it’s not a stretch to say that the Hulkling could be involved.
We also know that Skrulls will play a big part in the upcoming series Secret Invasion, and She-Hulk could be paving the way for this.
