I stopped reading the comics when the Russian lady Jilled off with a stick of TNT but always resolved to go back and read it someday.

Thank you for burying that resolution at sea.

I completely forgot about the puberty thing.

It doesn't help that of course the mom is a crack addict and they're depicted in the most derogatory and stereotypical ghetto style imaginable.

MM's daughter did porn with her mother to get back at her dad because she was angry with him. The part where Butcher manipulated her was busting into the porn studio during a meeting and killing everyone, including her mother, right in front of her to get her to call MM and draw him away from HQ for a while so he could set up his 'end game' without MM being able to find him out.

I really wish I didn't remember that.

Sort of like one barf smilie barfing into the mouth of the other barf smilie, who then barfs that barf back to the first smilie, and so on and so forth.

Well this was great but I feel a lot of the attempts at humor fell flat, especially the banter. Can I just mostly blame Seth Rogen for that you think?

Fantastic timing on the release with Epstein's death and all that going on, this is the most Epstein-brained superhero stuff gets.

I also thought Karl Urban was supposed to be from New Zealand like a lot of people in this thread apparently lol.

He didn't try very hard to keep that a secret

So yeah I found this show deeply uncomfortable to watch, but I soldiered through all 8 episodes. I don't know if I enjoyed it or not? I was a little put off by the rape of Starlight in Episode 1. The scene in Episode 4 where Homelander and Maeve let the plane crash with everyone on board is what almost sent me over the edge. I just found it so unsettling. There is no real hero in the show (outside of Starlight) and everyone is varying shades of rear end in a top hat. I guess that is what people like about it. But holy gently caress Homelander raping Billys wife, then just straight up murdering Stillwell with his eye beams, and then digging in the dagger by taking Billy to her house was a really powerful way to end his story arc in season 1.

I will definitely be watching Season 2

Casting news! Goran Visnjic and Claudia Doumit, stars of Eric Kripke’s last show Timeless, are set to recur in Season 2.

TV Line posted:

On The Boys, Visnjic will take on the role of Alistair Adana, the charismatic and shadowy leader of a mysterious church. Doumit, meanwhile, will play wunderkind congresswoman Victoria Neuman. [Malcolm] Barrett [who also starred in Timeless] is also confirmed to return for the second season, so fingers crossed for a Rufus/Jiya scene!

Visnjic appears to be playing a new character, while Doumit is running another genderbent take on one of Ennis’ original cast members—but of course, if that finale demonstrated anything, it’s that all bets are off as far as what that means.

I assumed they would have gone more of the Trump route for Vic, but I guess the comic was really far ahead of itself in that regard.
