So maybe I missed something watching season 2, but is the deal with Fresca explained? It seems tied to Church of the Collective people, is there some sort of addictive drug in it or some Compound V alternative? Or just a weird inside joke?

Just a joke, selected because soft drinks and cults have historically intersected (Jonestown, obviously, but also the Mormon church with Coca-Cola) They probably should have gone with Fanta since it and the CotC both had nazi Germany roots

Fanta isn't much of a thing here - Fresca is one of the go-to lovely sodas here. If TAB was still a thing it would've served a similar purpose.

Wheeee posted:It shows through in his interactions with Ryan, especially the restaurant scene, that Homelander isn't a born psychopath, he is actually capable of empathy and genuinely wants to be a good dad even if he's poo poo at it. I thought this was really great writing. Every parent capable of self reflection has moments like this, and it was very humanizing. Which is either the most appropriate or inappropriate word to use. It isn't a kind of parental moment you see reflected often in media either, and when it is its usually an elderly parent apologizing to their adult child.

Fresca is citrus flavored. Oranges are a kind of citrus. The people who drink Fresca end up in a cult instead of dead. And sometimes dead too. It's a meta-joke about pretentious use of citrus in film since Godfather.

pile of brown posted:Pretty sure fresca is specifically grapefruit. It tastes exactly like grapefruit white claws I hate Fresca. True story, I used to drink a lot of fresca when I was a teenager, until I got regular normal eat-lots-of-candies hepatitis, and suddenly it started to taste BAD. I guess the illness does something to your taste buds. In a few words, hepatitis opened my eyes. gently caress Fresca.

grapefruit is the deadliest fruit. if you're taking certain medications and you eat a grapefruit, it can gently caress up your whole situation.

Cytochrome P450 is a superfamily of enzymes that do a lot of things but one things they do is help your body get rid of xenobiotics. Basically, if there is some weird chemical in your body (like, for example, a drug) it oxidizes the crap out of them. Grapefruit inhibits this. So since your body isn't clearing the drugs as quickly, you are effectively taking more of the drug because it increases the drug's bioavailability.

I dunno... comic spoilers the Soldier Boy in the comics is like, the third? one in a long line of em. They clone em, or something like that, to make them all think they are the single one, but yea he died a few times...

I believe so far Kripke has explicitly stated that their Soldier Boy is the same one that's always been, likely so that they can use him as flashback pov to show the history of Vaught/alt-USA. Unless they're being cagey or trying to misdirect, which I don't really think is their style tbh.

No clue, honestly. I haven't read anything about interviews or anything show related to season 3 online other than just the casting stuff and one vague plotline that's gonna be lobbed in. He's got a pretty great track record of keeping the long story worked out though, so I'm sure it'll be something cool, regardless of which option they go with.
