YEAH I LIKED THE FINALE. I won’t say it couldn’t have been a lot better, but I liked what we got. And man, fucking hell, I was there when this show started and I’ve been following it from the very beginning. I actually fucking cried at Butcher’s demise. The scene was well done, well acted, and not to mention straight out of the comics.

Speaking of which, the battle at the White House was underwhelming, but seeing Homelander like that was actually fucking satisfying and sad too because, after all the shit he has done, he is as much a victim of Vought as just about anyone. His death was kinda like the comics too, since the skull-opening crowbar thing happens to Noir there, though I would’ve liked it more if, like in the comics, he died throwing a tantrum at someone else for his own mistakes. Still, that scene was good. I really felt the delivery of “This is for my Becca.”

The finale definitely would’ve benefited from being split into two episodes. Things would’ve felt less rushed and some other plotlines would’ve gotten more time. I feel like Deep’s demise was kinda underwhelming, but hey, it was still pretty sweet. I just wanted it to be more torturous.

The emotional scenes really clicked with me this episode, especially the ones with Butcher and Hughie. RIP Butcher. After all the fucked up things he did, you still can’t help but feel sad about what happened to this man. He kinda deserved what happened because of his deeds, but in the end he got nothing. Hopefully he’s with Becca now. RIP to Homelander too. Ashley finally had her fucking moment, and that was well done.

Now, I’m not saying it was perfect. I just liked it. And finally, all the sexual bullshit actually played a part in stopping a supercunt. Though Oh-Father’s demise was pretty underwhelming too.

Yeah, yeah, the comics definitely deliver harder and have a bigger payoff to all the stuff built up throughout the series an actual fucking battle at the White House, Butcher and the military shredding Noir with machine-gun fire, supes vs the military, and the ending arc with Butcher getting way more time. I know. But I’m not saying the finale was perfect, I’m just saying I liked it.

Farewell to my favourite show. I’ll always be a The Boys fan.

So recently there has been a lot of disappointment and dissatisfaction among fans of The Boys regarding the final season, especially with Homelander snapping, which reminded me of another series that pulls this off amazingly: Powers by Brian Michael Bendis.

In this universe, superheroes are actual heroes and try to live up to the comics, but it’s still pretty grounded, so they’re kind of messed-up people. Not evil per se, just flawed. The series really gets into the nitty-gritty of whether our society would truly accept and function alongside people with extraordinary abilities. It follows two ordinary cops in this crazy world and explores how regular people deal with all of it.

Now I’d like to get to the evil Superman of the series: Supershock. He started out as a well-meaning individual and eventually began questioning why things had to be this way. Why should he do what he does? Why does the world work like this? Which eventually leads him to developing a god complex, amplified further by the fact that he is supreme in his universe. A line from the main character goes something like: “We ranked him in the highest tier because we don’t know how strong he is. For all we know, he could be God himself.” That line sent a chill down my spine.

And what does Supershock do to convince people of his divinity? He intervened in the war between Israel and Palestine, putting an end to it by completely vaporizing the entire area. Then, aiming to present himself as the only godly being on the planet, he went to Rome and melted the Pope himself.

One of the last scenes has Supershock in space, seemingly teleporting our main character out of her house. Is this guy really God?

It really doesn’t help that nothing is known about the origin of this mf. For all we know, he could be as ancient as the world itself, since he was always there for humanity as a guardian angel

In the character's first appearance, his origin was said to have been told to the artist of the story by someone named "Captain Cook..."

The story was that, as a child, Bart Hill was witness to his parents' brutal murder. The murderer also branded Bart with a hot iron, leaving a boomerang-shaped scar on the left side of his chest. This traumatic experience left the boy mute. He trained his entire life in the art of the boomerang, eventually becoming a master boomerang marksman. He then donned a costume and took to the streets as the vigilante crime-fighter known as Daredevil. In addition to his boomerang, Daredevil was a master acrobat and possessed a fighter plane called the Airdevil that first appeared in Silver Streak Comics #8.

However... It appears Captain Cook lied, for Bart Hill/Daredevil's second appearance showed him able to speak and it was later revealed that his parents were killed while in Australia, with Bart then raised by a tribe of aborigines who taught him the art of using boomerangs. As an adult, he returned to the U.S. and fought crime as Daredevil.

He now lies in the public domain, allowing anyone to use him. Many publishers have featured him over the years, such as Dynamite Entertainment in Project Superpowers, which was published during a period overlapping with The Boys. We all know which one ended up dominating that era. He has also appeared in Image Comics’ Savage Dragon, and even Marvel Comics has paid homage to him.

I've recently watched a Feat of Clay episode from Batman: The Animated Series and I already see so much parrallels between episode and teaser we've been showed.
I already can see how Matt Hagen's story from episode could be adapted as a horror film, there've been so much to explore. But I want to believe they're gonna chanche something about Hagen's revenge to hiss boss on LIVE, because I already could hear people complaining about how DC just remaded Todd Philips' Joker's story to earn money on the same thing
