While the stakes in She-Hulk have been kept relatively low so far, the sixth episode of the new Disney+ series introduces a few new names to the MCU that comic book fans might be familiar with. Here’s what you need to know about Intelligencia in She-Hulk.
Intelligencia in She-Hulk Explained
The portrayal of Intelligencia in She-Hulk is rather different from how it was introduced in the comics. In the series, it’s described as a website or forum similar to Reddit, except it’s for “hateful man-babies”. It’s meant to be a mix of Reddit and 4-chan, and the show uses it as a satirical portrayal of internet trolls gathering in a cesspool of hate.
The website comes up when one of Mr Immortal‘s ex-spouses says she saw a video of him on there, where he got into a fatal car crash, but got up and walked away immediately after that.
Intelligencia in the Comics
In the comics, however, Intelligencia is actually an organization made up of iconic villains such as Mister Sinister, Klaw, Doctor Doom, and Leader. The organization ran experiments with gamma radiation in an attempt to take down the Hulk, which may very well tie in with the ending scene of episode 6, where we see unnamed scientists in a lab moving gamma-radiated blood around.
In addition to that, Intelligencia also plays a major role in the Secret Wars arc. We already know that Leader will be involved in the upcoming Captain America movie, and that the MCU is headed towards its own iteration of Secret Wars, so it seems likely that Intelligencia will play a role in the cinematic universe somehow, even if their portrayal is markedly different from the comics.
That’s all you need to know about what Intelligencia is in She-Hulk. Be sure to search for Twinfinite for more news and information on the show, including Daredevil’s involvement in the story, and who Titania is.
