Resumo

This paper presents a discussion about the difference between She-Hulk’s and Hulk’s bodies. Based on the origin of the two characters, we seek to find factors that justify the differences between them. Additionally, this paper presents the context and the possible influences from society in the design of these characters. Based on some texts about body, gender and health, we discuss the relationship between Hulk and his female version from a feminist perspective. We will discuss, in this paper, how the search for the ideal body through the use of anabolic steroids and dietary supplements may be related to She-Hulk. This study aims to initiate a reflection on the characteristics of the female version of Giant Emerald and to bring new issues for future discussions and research. DOI: 10.12957/demetra.2016.22512
