"Look, son, if it's good enough for Shirley Bassey, it's good enough for you."

Yeah, but can Hulk punch a hole in the space time continuum?

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.

You have to remember that being a 5-time Olympic medalist means Hilary Knight has been playing hockey at an elite level at least 16 years. It's impossible for her to be a teenage girl less than 16 years old, thus the President's complete lack of interest.

That was done back when she was in her ripped-hospital-gown-can-lift-40-tons phase. These days she's about as strong as Ben Grimm.

I hate to say it, but I didn't even know he'd still been producing it. Still, the first several years of it were brilliant.
