They could have experimented further on Black Noir, he could be stronger and more durable now than he was before. I do prefer the comic reveal, it was ... supremely messed up and a pretty great.
I feel like the weapon is a red herring, possible Soldier Boy defected and went with them willingly, but one of the trailers seems to suggest otherwise.
Black Noir is actually a black guy. The whole Homelander clone in the comics reveal was rather uninspired. The TV show has a much better take on Black Noir so far.
I'm not familiar with what they did in the comics, but I had the thought that the very specific face reveal of Black Noir in the past was to possibly do a twist in the present.
Not the one in the above spoiler, though, which wouldn't really fit the show.

It seems wildly inconsistent though.
He tanked a house explosion yet his face was mega messed up by regular arms there. Unless the rebels were using this special weapon, but I think the weapon is ultimately just a red herring,
His armor probably gives him some amount of additional protection. He refused to wear his mask in Nicaragua, but has been fully buttoned up ever since. Also, Naquib did some damage to him when he exploded.
Alternative explanation: they were firing 12.7mm almonds at him
So in a show with so much messed up shit the things that got to me to so far was.
Mother's milk's wife's new man like nodding along to Homelander saying he wasn't going to take it anymore while mothers milk's wife looks on in horror.
And the deep being forced to eat his octopus friend.
It really feels like Kripke just puts his rage at the current worlds affairs into the show
I would like some money because these are artisanal nuggets of wisdom philistine.

The best thing about that dinner scene
100% it was the Deep's wife getting revenge on him as I think she picked up on the whole "get me off with all your arms" thing during sex. I would not be surprised if she's a bit of a vindictive shit.
3 episodes had a ton of shots at things. We got the NRA, we got white power as a concept, we got corporations having "inclusive" stuff to sell you shit, we got a white person equating themselves to Dr. King when it way way doesn't make sense, reality tv sucking. Like my god its wall to wall "AND FUCK THIS SHIT AND THIS SHIT!"
Is season 3 the last season? Having a fire sale of fuck yous?
I would like some money because these are artisanal nuggets of wisdom philistine.
Did Homelander actually visit Butcher? Or was that just the first signs of Butcher losing his mind? Because it was played straight and it felt like the kind of thing Homelander would do, but then we see later on with butcher he was using Homelander as a stand in for his impulse to just take the V.

Again its like a fire sale of fuck yous.
I also enjoy that we have literal nazis in support of a nazi and they are treated as people who just disagree. God damn you cna practically see the bile the writing room has for modern america. Its similar to the boys as a comic which keeps with the theme, but it feels more focused in the show and not getting lost in like depravity despite having plenty of depravity.
I will say the homelander hand job scene was also one of those awful things he's done. Like god damn dude! I swear if Homelander survives this season and that feels like a big if, he can't be this unhinged going forward, he's got to at least put the veneer back on.
Also I somehow missed that Jim Beavers character is literally Bobby Singer.

Lil' Starlight singing Britney's Hit Me Baby nearly made me gag. As if we needed more evidence that her mom was a monster.
Its a perfect encapsulation of how fucked up pagents are. Plus like remember this was the "christian" pageant having a like eight year old sing a britney spears song.
But my god the boy band song is horrifically gross. Like that's the point, but jesus.

The other contestants may never know what a solid Starlight just did for them by keeping them the fuck away from The Seven, but the optics of blowing off two minority women to usher in two white men (including a sex offender) cannot be worse.

Feels very intentional. Reminds me of an interview with the cast where they asked about the fresca stuff in season 2 and Ackles having worked with Eric on Supernatural said "it might not have meaning yet, but later..." I can't imagine it was accidental as Homelander is going full republican super hero fantasy, that the seven is getting more male and more white.
I'm kind of at a loss as to what's going to happen with A Train. He can't use his speed, Homelander is constantly pointing that out and now Homelander is not taking no for an answer I wonder just how awful A Train will die.
It was nice to see the only real difference between Butcher and Homelander when it comes to using power is ability. We always knew that, but jesus after what he did to powderganger its even more apparent.

Well Supersonic is Hispanic/Latinx, no?
Felt like yet another dig by Kripke. Alt-right/conservatives embracing the latinx/hispanic community despite working against them in all things.

I think my favorite running gag on the show is Huey getting coated in various bodily fluids. First the remains of Vicky's friend, and then Butcher literally vomitting on him. I hope Jack Quaid is getting paid well to take all this liquid abuse

*eyes the episode list and the episode titled "Herogasim"*
I wonder what Dennis Quaid thinks of the boys? "Well if it was called the Girls I knew I could find a new bride their eh jacky boy eh eh."
I will say I still don't fully buy Huey and Starlights relationship, its not the fault of the actors, but like Huey seems like such a ball of rage and shame I can't see how Starlight would want to remain with him.
I would like some money because these are artisanal nuggets of wisdom philistine.
I think she's probably staying with him because he's basically a good dude whose various insecurities are doing him in, but I don't see that relationship lasting much longer.
They're going for a pretty obvious love triangle there and I can't see this show going for the happy ending resolution to that.
I submitted an entry to Lego Ideas, and if 10,000 people support me, it'll be turned into an actual Lego set!If you'd like to see and support my submission, follow this link.
tbh my biggest issue with the show is just that huey is really unlikable; I get that the point is him being a regular person shoved into all this madness, but at some point have him stop wringing his hands over everything (in fairness the current season seems to be improving him in this regard.)

the show's treatment of its own subjects is a nice deviation from the comics; the book has plenty of lurid material but you often kinda sense ennis masturbating to his own writing. Meanwhile the show writers seem to look at everyone but starlight and mother's milk with something like disgust
it was the smallest on the list but
Pluto was a planet and I'll never forget
Honestly the most sympathetic character on the show is pretty much Komiko. She's the one that never wanted any of this, has basically been thrown from one shitty group to the next and just wanted to be a regular person. Like Starlight also didn't want the life, but has embraced aspects of it to try and get better things for others, for ill or worse as that has had happen.
I wonder what'll happen when Frenchie obviously dies horribly, what she will do after.
Also former boyfriend is going to die soonish too, either to homelander or the boys, but his death seems to be written in the stars.
I would like some money because these are artisanal nuggets of wisdom philistine.
also I get the sense Theron is kinda like Samuel Jackson in that she'll take almost anything that pays and seems vaguely interesting, especially since I don't imagine filming her part took more than a day or two

I guess I think of her more A list than a Cameo in the Boys. But maybe the show has a lot of people wanting to show up to have them exploded from the inside out or something.

11 feet tall and 20 feet long.
I cant imagine the look on the face of the guy who had to approve that in the budget.
"I really don't see how..."
"Time for Marvelous Mrs Maisel to get weird."
Time for a reboot of The Fantastic Voyage?

His problem with the nazi shit is that you don't need plural "nazis," you only need one Homelander.
Plus "nazi" doesn't poll well.
I also found it amazing that his issue with her (cw: self harm)
And then he literally killed a jewish person in response. "like sure she jumped" sure.
