>The Boys started with superheroes murdering people just by using their powers carelessly because that's what would "really happen" with superpowers
>Hughie's girlfriend gets liquified by super speed
>Homelander can't save everyone on a plane because trying to stop it would tear it half so he kills them

>Most recent season has Hughie get picked up by a flying guy going mach 7 and flies to airline height in seconds with no injury
>He is dropped and falls almost to the ground and Starlight catches him uninjured while flying despite the fact that he is going at terminal velocity

In the space of 2 minutes this episode literally shits all over two events and the logic behind them that essentially drove the entire show.

Of all the criticisms I've seen, this inconsistency in in-universe logic might be the most damning

You fucked up by watching past season 1

I stopped watching the boys like 2 season ago, doesn't he have super powers now?

yeah one of the tiktok homos pick him up and drop him but starlight saves him by picking him up midair. It's when they're running the hero AIDS to the rock man.

They broke it a long time ago, why do people watch this stupid shit
>>
>>220153507
the problem with shows making fun of superheroes is because ultimately what people want are superheroes fighting which means that logic like that writers won't give a fuck about because capeshit writers don't give a fuck about that as they should because realistic fantasy is cringe
But it makes shows like the boys retarded because they pretend to be "above" capeshit
