Are any of the core Gen V characters in the comics or is everything in this pure invention of the show?
>>150865210LMGTFY
>>150865264But I want to discuss it here
>>150865210This show is pure woke slop. Sam is the only guy left on this damn show it's so fucking boring.
>>150865210Any webm requests?
>>150865210Nothing in Gen V is canon to The Boys comic. The Boys TV show is so far removed from the original comic they are two different stories.
>>150865443Female Jordan getting fucked in season 1.
>>150865481Do you have the episode and timestamps?
>>150865488Had to search for it. Season 1, Episode 3 15:50.
>>150865428You realize Andre died irl right? So not like they had a choice in that
>>150865714I know he died but there are ways around that. You could recast his character, or introduce another male character to the main crew.
I've liked it quite a bit, its actual overarching storylines have been much more put together than the main show. Some of the more on-the-nose emotional drama falls flat but it doesn't drag down the entire experience.I did catch on to the "twist" from this recent episode pretty early and it was kind of hilarious watching Marie work so hard to do the dumbest things possible

>>150865910>I did catch on to the "twist" from this recent episode pretty early and it was kind of hilarious watching Marie work so hard to do the dumbest things possibleI actually could not see the twist coming so it was enjoyable momentarily but it was not a big enough twist to blow me away completelySeason 1 had much better writing imo
Has season 2 even come out yet?
>>150865916based
>>150865910Season 1 was leagues better than season 2. Season 2 is just slop.
>>150865210Just Godolkin himself and some rando's that were originally part of Teenage Kix like Dogknot, that's about it, every good guy in this show is an OC
>>150866023Anon... the season finale comes out next week...
>>150865752Funnily enough, they tried to do the latter by integrating this guy into the team, but he's been so irrelevant to the plot people were expecting him to be secretly working with Cipher lmao
>>150865210no they went with gay ass crying breakfast friends OCs instead of the G-Men
>>150865931>I actually could not see the twist comingHow could you not? I knew it since they showed the old burnt man. They even make it painfully obvious when they confirm that Cipher has no V in his blood.
CW's low rent Gotham was better
>>150866254Got it they use C list characters from the comics as easter egg an just do their own thing in this universe
>>150866743>They even make it painfully obvious when they confirm that Cipher has no V in his blood.Since "Cipher" was controlling Jordon it did not occur to me that Goldokin was able to control multiple people
>>150866938Pretty much, yeah.
>>150865752>You could recast his character, or introduce another male character to the main crew.They kinda did that by giving Andre's role to his dad
>>150867138I would only accept Polarity as a main crew member if he fucked one of the main girls. Which would have to be Kate since she's the only true single one.
>>150865443nump
I feel like they nerfed Sam. I feel like his strength and durability was suppose to be way above the average supe. They were using him to make his brother stronger. But in season 2 he's no different than the other students and he gets ragdolled by people he should be better than.
>>150868547Have we ever seen him fighting people above his weight class in season 1? I barely remember the few fights he had with the rest of the main crew and he was frequently put under pressure in both of them, hell, Andre alone beat him in a 1v1 just by tasering him last season, I doubt he was ever intended to be Homelander levels of strong.Cate on the other hand definitely got nerfed though, beyond the skull injury, I don't think there ever was a point in season 1 where they even implied her orders only worked on people's minds for a specific amount of time (in fact they made a great effort establishing otherwise with the whole lost brother deal), and yet Sam's completely sober this season after being told to stop feeling any remorse for the fucked up shit he was doing with her, I'd kinda get this if the main villain had a more common power, but they already established Godolkin as a far stronger telepath, so it just feels like they ended up writing themselves into a corner there.
>>150868547I felt this too. He was definitely supposed to be something notable in the first season but inhibited by his severe mental illness. In the second though he's not even strong by the standards of super strength characters
>>150868806There's no point that Cate's powers were implied to expire over time but every time they "expired" it seemed to be because the subject was reminded of the truth and not some arbitrary temporary limit on it. Sam's brainwashing only expired because each time he was told some shit he did not like
gonna be honest guys, the cipher twist was interesting (if obvious) in theory but I think they fucked up bad with itlosing the fucking midnight mass guy as your main villain is a massive mistake and this new guy doesn't have 30% of the presence
>>150868806>I doubt he was ever intended to be Homelander levels of strong.I didn't say Homelander level. I said way above the average. Golden Boy was the number 1 supe at that school, and Sam is way stronger than him. In terms of power Golden Boy was Seven worthy, so logically Sam shouldn't be losing to scrub no name supes.
How does Cate's powers work? Does she need to touch them with her hands, or is it just skin to skin contact? The show makes it seem like it's the former.
>>150868866>Sam's brainwashing only expired because each time he was told some shit he did not likeY'know what? Sure, I'll run with that.>>150868891Ethan Slater has barely been present in this season for like 8 minutes at most so far, I'm willing to keep my expectations tempered on whether he'll do a job as solid as Hamish's, but it's true he definitely has some big shoes to fill with the time he has left.I agree with how much they messed up the twist btw they really should have saved that odessa accident flashback for either this episode or the next one.
I like the current Gen V cast and I hope they become a genuine superhero team by the end. I know this goes against the spirit of the Boys, but what should their super suits look like?
>>150866265Ah fuckI was hoping to watch the episodes as they came so I don't overdose on cringe, but now I have to mainline this shit
>>150868547I'm pretty sure he is just more docile. He seems a lot stronger when he is completely crazy, but when he is a bit more mellow he doesn't have that same ruthless strength.
>>150867954Why is the the only female nudity in either show?>>150868919Yeah he was overpowering the female who fights seven members regularly, now all he does it get worf'd
>Marie>potentially the strongest supe>black woman>Sage>the smartest person>black womanI hate this woke series so fucking much.
>>150870134Sage being the smartest person in the world evens out with Marie being the dumbest person in the world.
>>150866746Wrong dumdum!
>>150866367i kinda hope he stays a good guy, the idea of a woke homelander is kinda amusing conceptually
how's season 5 gonna be of the boys ?
>>150873219I hope he stays in the main group honestly, this season suffered way too much from losing one of its 2 male leads Jordan doesn't count, at this point that dude only whips out his male form for fights
>>150865210>are characters in a spin off of a show that is nothing like the comic book in the comic?Guess
>>150873252Marie shows up and kills Homelander like the Mary Sue she is.
>>150867805bump*
>>150875532another bump
>>150867954If it was a guy they would show the butt entirely even flash the full frontal for a second
>>150866191It's kinda fuckin appalling how genuinely good S1 was, then making The Boys S4 be a season full of nothing but set-up just to then make S2 of Gen V be another season full of set-up for whatever they'll do in the S5 finale.It's at the very least entertaining but I can only expect these shows to end with the wettest fart.
>>150877834I actually was surprised by how goo S1 was, they just didnt have much o a plan for Season 2 seems like
