Which sucks because Ryan is the worst character in the show.

Every super on any show who whines about having powers. Its fucking insufferable. "Oh no my invulnerability / super healing factor / flight, its so hard being different!"

The *only* one who ever had a plausible story for it was Rogue in X-Men. And I guess Ben Grimm but we havent had a watchable film version of him yet.

Completely aside from the current storyline, I'd like to watch an arc about some super-supremacist like Homelander or Stormfront to go on a killing spree where they exclusively kill whiny supes. Do it one character a week. Build up their little bullshit drama, have them go into the usual tropey "its so hard being different" then just have the supremacist show up and brutally kill them Omni-Man style for being such a whiney little bitch.

I'd watch a season of that at least.

I really enjoyed this season, but agree with what’s been said.

1. When they sedated Soldier Boy, the American Inventor calling him a racist piece of shit was unnecessary. Sadistic, homicidal, murderous all would have been a better word. Soldier Boy kills everyone lol. Best anti-supe ever.

2. The Trump / Homelandee shit is insulting. But I’m almost Team Homelander at this point.

Q: When Homelander was talking to Soldier Boy before the big fight, was H actually emotional about it being his dad, or was he manipulating him to avoid getting killed?

Homelander 100% has a huge need for approval especially from parental figures. I think he was being totally genuine.

So it sounds like Black noir really is dead, Kripke has someone cast for taking up his suit and is going to be talking this next season making jokes....

I'n all honest Soldier Boy is the one man of his word. Whateverer it takes and then they turned. Ackles ruining homelander was good fucked up writing

I could be wrong, but isn't the guy at the Homelander event who starts the cheer after he lasers the lib MM's ex-wife's husband?

Yes.

Which is another hilarious thing. Black woman goes from being married to a we wuz kings black dude to a pasty limpwristed white guy deep into right wing politics? Ok.

The new Black Noir is....Black Noir. The guy who has always been in the suit is playing the new Black Noir, but this time with the ability to talk and will take off the helmet periodically.

This is why they chose a different actor for the Payback flashback.

Black Noir was great and becoming even better after his story in episode 7. Now the kill him off the next episode and pull that shit?

Out of everything that I could get rustled with and shrug off with this show, Turning Noir into a talking comic relief is one thing that makes me want to say Fuck this show

The spinoff series "The Boys presents: Varsity" is filming now and we will apparently see it in early 2023 before Season 4 of the main show.

Interesting they chose to do the G-men as a college setting vs the 'school for gifted youngsters'

That screams lawsuit from X-men and probably a legal change.

Dont be a bigot. Clearly it is her who makes the money.

So this season was great but it felt like not as "much" happened given that it's the same length as the first two.

Homsar · Jul 9, 2022

Everything A-train low key is the best comedic aspect of this season. The scene with Ashley after he gets his new heart is gold.
