another speedster that was written out because they can't be good guys or smart. why does this happen?
>speedster>gets a cardiac arrest
>>219579734Did he always need his goggles to see where he was going?
>>219579734Rest in peace, Fast Blackman.
>>219582937The goggles were filtered so the blurry world around him didn't look as distorted, as soon as they fell off he was running into indiscernable blurs and fell. The Goys is shit but his death was handled really well.
>nigger>superpower is running fast>weakness is carelessnessToo much Seth Rogen
>>219579734jogger
>>219579734I don't get it, if he could do the time stop thing then he could've just saved them by himself.
It would have been more authentic storytelling for Homelander to drop the “Hard R” on him as he killed him. I know that’s what I would have done.
>>219585514I wonder why they dont just have him say it if they're so adamant on making him somebody no one is allowed to like
>>219585550you answered your own question
>>219579734At least it wasn't another nigga with electric powers. Even fucking Miles Morales has electric powers, for fuck's sake.
>>219582937Because wind dries out eyes quickly and they become sore. Try walking against cold sharp wind sometimes without squinting.
>>219579734Should have died of his fucking heart attack 2 seasons ago.
>>219585550Lol even stormfront didn't say nigger and she was a literal nazi
>>219585514dude, even in super hero stories there are limits to how comically evil you can make a character
>>219586274>Lol even stormfront didn't say nigger and she was a literal naziiirc the Peacemaker episode where they went to the nazi universe had the evil nazi chuds calling them "Black" (with a capital 'B' in the subtitles).
>>219585550>>219586928>villain is so evil he genocides entire races, kills women and children, rapes, cuts people into pieces >whoa dude, he can't say the n word that's crossing the line
>>219579734a nigger dies im happy
>>219579734Its the single most broken super power next to telekinesis and telepathy.>>219582836Only way to weaken him and add stakes to the character.
>>219586274They hated jews not blacks.
JFC answer the damn OP you faggots
>>219585514>It would have been more authentic storytelling for Homelander to drop the “Hard R” on him as he killed him.No it wouldn't. Racism is trivial to Homelander because he already sets himself apart from non supes. We had literal Nazi superheroes in this show and Homelander just thought their fixation on race instead of powers was weird.
>>219585514>Why don't the evil bandits in Fallout simply rape Ella Purnell?
>>219579734If Homelander is fast enough to catch A-Train how come he didn't see him coming in the camp?
>>219591714But they do
>>219591581A moment where the nazi is confronted with the fact that he finds her racism an archaic relic and that her power matters, thst he thinks shes a flawed being he only acknowledged because she is somewhat on his level and fuckable.That level of all encompassing narcissistic, ego, and gid complex woukdvhave been much better and marketable then a cheap two bit caricature.
>>219591995It'd have been more poignant if Homelander was Black.
>>219591867A pupil cannot take in light to see while it's expelling laser beams, since the beams are brighter than everything else. Imagine having a laser pointer fired directly into your eye but in reverse. You wouldn't see shit. Homelander is momentarily blind every time he fires his beams, but they're practically instant, so it's not a weakness unless dealing with speedsters.
>>219592516>but they're practically instantThey should be, but A-train still outran them, meaning both A-train and homelander are faster than light. It's just a plothole. Ideally homelander should have been in the process of charging his beams and A-train blindsided him because he was so singlemindedly focused on killing Hughie. The fact A-train saw the beams in slow-mo is retarded.
>>219591409Because superspeed is too OP of a power and writers always have to nerf speedsters.
>>219592693If homelander actually fired lasers from his eyes, then he'd have cut through the earth multiple times. All the feats he's showcased so far point to him actually having plasma beams rather than laser beams. They travel at a much more reasonable 200 miles per second rather than 186,282 miles per second that light does. If you're having trouble understanding the distinction, then rather than imagining beams of light shooting from Homelander's eyes, imagine a super condensed blowtorch that can shoot out like 50 meters.
