WARNING: POSSIBLE SPOILERS AHEAD

Aww Man Get Her Out the Street Hughie!!!





So I just finished all three seasons of The Boys on Amazon Prime. I thought Invincible was crazy but no buddy this show is on a whole other time. When it started I knew something was about to go awry because the scene was too jolly but I still couldn’t see what was coming. Less than 10 mins they show a woman getting ran thru by a speedster (A Train). 

And in the moment he shows no remorse, just says he gotta keep going. 

I was like oh this show about to be one of them ones. Even that scene couldn’t prepare me for the series’ main antagonist, Homelander!

This dude is literally all of Batman’s fears about Superman personified by a 1000!

He knows how to make people maaaaad uncomfortbale.

The thing I enjoy most about his presence on the show is literally that, his presence. I don’t know Anthony Starr does it, (the actor for Homelander) but he oozes a sense of unpredictability. Every time he’s around you literally don’t if he’s going to kill everyone in the room or not. What makes it better is the supporting cast show the same pressure as well. No one is ever feeling 100% comfortable around him. He’s an abosolute menace. 

Seeing this show made me realize why God didn’t give us superpowers lol. The super-powered people in this show are so damn egotistical, with Homelander far exceeding everyone else. The only humanity he displays is while interacting with his son. That’s almost an oxymoron based off how his son was conceived ( watch the show beloved).

If Anthony Starr isn’t nominated for an Emmy this year it’s an absolute crime. We know superhero shows aren’t that respected in mainstream awards media but nobody is acting like Starr is. Every time he shows up your heart pounds thinking man is he going to just laser someone out of their existence. Then when he actually do it you’re like man I knew he was going to snap, boy is just next level egregious!!

I knew I had to write this article after finishing the season 3 finale when he killed a protestor and was met with praise. Even his son, who was molded and nurtured in a more clark Kent way showed some enjoyment seeing his dad destroy someone’s soul. You can see Pandora’s Box not only open, the hinges were ripped off with the hulk hands lol!

Be sure to checkout The Boys on Amazon Prime and when you do let’s take some compound V and get this ham Homelander outta here!!! Lol
