That’s a good thing to be conscious of! I know I’ve completely dropped off most Star Wars and Marvel content

But what about the origin story of that obscure character you never heard of? Omahgunnus is going back to the Big Bang to recreate the entirety of time to make himself the ruler of everything! The stakes couldn’t be higher! Benefactor Cucumberpatch makes a cameo, but it takes place in the Phase III timeline, so you gotta watch for his cameo in the off-season 4 episode She-Hulk mini series to fully get the context of why he can’t help.

It’s like he can’t hear the words coming out of his mouth:
Speaking to Collider, Kripke says, “The thing about The Boys is that it’s punk rock, and it hurts extra hard when punk rockers sell out. I’m really working hard not to sell out.” He’s speaking about the various spin-off shows that are in the works. Gen V is currently awaiting its second season, out sometime in 2025, and a new prequel show is in the works starring Soldier Boy and Stormfront titled Vought Rising. It will detail the early years of the company.
They could all be great but, at this point, you aren’t the scrappy underdog, you are a multimillion dollar superhero franchise and when he walks they’ll keep milking the cow until it dies.

hahahahahaha, way too late for that, i watched the first season, and all the characters moral base were so ugly their actions so contrived to ellicit a negative response, they got one from me, watched the first ep of the second season and that was it, just another over the top superhero show, trying to say something, and failing. sure lots of shoot em up and gore, a little sex, but overall forgettable as social genre commentary. at least for me. i did like Gen V, a lot a lot, I guess the reason for this disconnect is they wrote the kids likeable with some sort of moral center, even the bad one, and I understand that, that makes sens to me. Tragedy what happened Chance Perdomo, and hope the show is able to reground and continue. But The Boys, blech, you can have it.

That’s how the source material is. That’s the whole point of the show.
You missed the entire point

yes, because the point, as they were attempting to animate it for consumption, sucked shit. they missed to point of making an entertaining show.

Honestly I’ve loved the boys. But it’s bought up by amazon and corpified. That’s done and dusted, you can’t pretend it isn’t.
