Marvel Comics’ loveable loser Leap-Frog — also known as Frog-Man — made his debut in She-Hulk: Attorney at Law, but as a total jerk. Here’s what he does in the comics.
She-Hulk: Attorney at Law has settled into a comfortable rhythm in the back half of its first season: Every episode brings another frightfully obscure Marvel Comics character to the live-action screen to riff on them. The show began its run with Titania — relatively well known as the closest thing She-Hulk has to a nemesis — and has followed through with the likes of Mister Immortal, Luke Jacobson, and more.
This week is no different, with a cameo that’s leaps and bounds ahead of the rest.

This week’s legal plot concerns Eugene Patilio, aspiring superhero almost immediately turned villain, who’s using his father’s money and clout to bankroll his aspirational costumed life as Leap-Frog. Patilio’s powers seem to include entitlement, having a lot of money, and using it to pay for a suit with rocket boots — but what he’s really doing in the episode is building a door for She-Hulk’s much anticipated Daredevil cameo.
