Somehow, the end of She-Hulk: Attorney at Law has arrived, with episode 9 set to mark the finale of the smashingly entertaining Marvel series on Disney Plus.
Throughout the past eight episodes, fans have followed lawyer Jennifer Walters (Tatiana Maslany) through her highs and lows, from learning the art of being a Hulk from her cousin Bruce Banner (Mark Ruffalo) to teaming up with Daredevil (Charlie Cox).
While a season 2 is yet to be confirmed (we have our fingers crossed), there are plenty of questions we’re hoping will be answered in the finale.
But mostly, we just want to see She-Hulk get absolute revenge on the hateful trolls behind the Intelligencia site after the horror they put Jen through last week.
From Abomination (Tim Roth) coming out to play to Titania (Jameela Jamil) coming out of the woodwork yet again, here are our predictions for the final episode.
What could happen in the She-Hulk finale?
Abomination vs Hulk – but is it what it seems?
A teaser trailer for the She-Hulk finale has revealed that not only will Emil Blonsky transform into Abomination once again – violating the terms of his parole – but he will become locked in a fight with his old nemesis, Hulk.
This will of course technically be a different Hulk to the one he fought last time, as Edward Norton played the green superhero in the 2008 film The Incredible Hulk, but nevertheless, seeing these two lock horns once again will be a sight to behold.
However, their sparring match looks like it could take place at Emil’s retreat, so perhaps it’ll be part of an anger-releasing exercise, as opposed to a fully-fledged, hate-spewing battle?
Speaking of Hulk, what’s he been up to in space?
The last time we saw Hulk on screen, he was jetting off away from Earth in the spaceship that came to deliver a message to him in episode one.

His journey into space sparked theories that his narrative could have taken inspiration from the World War Hulk storyline from the comics, when Hulk was banished into space by the Illuminati.
However, if he’s back fighting Abomination, then perhaps his business in space is over… but will we find out what it was all about?
Identity of ‘Hulk King’ in charge of Intelligencia revealed?
There’s been much speculation over who the big bad is behind the dark website Intelligencia, which has been targeting Jennifer with death threats and managed to obtain a sample of her blood.
Some people believe it could be none other than The Leader, aka Samuel Sterns (Tim Blake Nelson), who also last appeared in The Incredible Hulk.
In his previous appearance, Sterns was a cellular biologist who was developing a so-called antidote for Bruce, before being exposed to a substance himself.
So is he really the brains behind it all?
Could Red Hulk actually happen?
In the Marvel comics, General Ross is the character who transforms into Red Hulk – but we’re yet to see that happen on screen.
Thaddeus Ross was played in the MCU by William Hurt, who made his first appearance in the 2008 The Incredible Hulk and reprised the role in Captain America: Civil War, Avengers: Infinity War, Endgame and Black Widow, before his death aged 71 in March this year.
While it may not seem likely Red Hulk will show up through another character, Jennifer did make a sly joke about the character in a previous episode. So maybe it’s not beyond the realm of possibility?
What time is the finale released on Disney Plus?
She-Hulk drops new episodes on Disney Plus at 8am BST in the UK.
Over in the US, this is 3am Eastern Time and midnight Pacific Time.
Could there be a season 2?
While we suspect the She-Hulk series won’t be the last we see of Jen Walters, a second season is yet to be announced.
However, Marvel series Loki ended with the confirmation of season two in a post-credits scene, so perhaps the same will happen for Jen?

During an interview with Collider, showrunner Jessica Gao revealed that when she pitched the show, she ‘already had an idea of where I would want it to go for another season and what the premise of that season would be’.
‘From the beginning, I had ideas of where it would go. But coming from TV, you can’t ever go into a first season show thinking you’re gonna get another season. You have to plan for the fact that this might be one and done, so you have to create a season that feels like it’s telling a complete story, and yet leaves the door open. That’s how I approached it,’ she said.
However, Jessica added that there were a ‘lot of things’ that had to be cut from the first season and that they didn’t get round to tackling, so it would be ‘really nice for those things to see the light of day again’.
Nonetheless, we also can’t wait to hopefully see She-Hulk meet even more superheroes on the big screen, as the MCU leads to the next huge battle – Avengers: Secret Wars.
She-Hulk is available to watch on Disney Plus, with the season finale being released on Thursday October 13.
