Golden Bee posted:Frenchie can’t stop others from manipulating his girlfriend. - All of them want the weapon to kill Homelander - They had to negotiate with a person to get it - Frenchie didn't want to fulfill the one negotiation thing because it would hurt a person he wanted to protect - The only other option for them was for Kimiko to "take care" of a shithead Like, obviously Butcher should have asked Kimiko before agreeing, but I don't explicitly blame him since this is the only viable path any of them have, and it was literally "someone Frenchie likes dies" or "Kimiko does a thing she dislikes, but with no outright long term physical harm". I also don't put this on Frenchie aside from his presence in the group and in the discussion caused that person to offer those options

No one else would have had to know, Butcher could have taken a hit of V, killed the target and burned the house down himself. Granted he's now out (as far as we can assume, he had 3 vials but the needle(s) we've seen doesn't look like it uses the whole vial) but he still would have had V in his system by the time they went to get the weapon/soldier boy.

since butcher was taking the v the next night anyway he probably could've just taken it to do that hitjob and still been juiced up for the real job. time it so it's less than a 24 hour gap between jobs. he was still keeping it a secret at that point but he had to have known there was a good chance the jig would be up the next day anyway.

There's going to be at least one scene (maybe their shot on Homelander in the finale) where it goes like the Futurama episode and they run out of juice at the critical moment for sure

I wonder if it’ll be like a cg version of him in vought media or something. Probably safer to make fun of the MCU parading his digital corpse than to pastiche Stan himself.

IShallRiseAgain posted:lmao, when trying to looking up the legend I found this article https://screenrant.com/boys-stan-lee-legend-disrespectful-parody-comic/ Yeah, that sounds not great. Based on the timing, maybe he used to have a job like Ashley or Sitwell in the 80s and Soldier Boy is going to seek him out. I don't know what The Boys would get out of a character like that right now since they know HL's backstory and what happened to SB already. Maybe they need him to make sense of the lab documents that Kimiko took for some reason.

Ennis loving *hates* the entire concept of a "superhero" so expect him to be some  expert on everything.

No Dignity posted:A-Trains arc has been being given opportunities to redeem himself and make a positive difference and veering away from them as hard as possible to suck up to power and preserve his career instead. They basically spell it out for you with the Michael Jordan comment Seriously. I don't see what's hard to believe about A-Train betraying Supersonic. Of course he would. He'll do whatever he has to, to stay on the Seven and feel important. There's nothing he cares about as much as his fame or influence. Nuebot posted:My pet theory is that he's going to wind up in another position like in season one; homelander'll tell him to take care of Hughie and Starlight while he's busy, and despite the two trying to talk him down he's going to do the rear end in a top hat thing and his heart will go off. Only this time they're not going to stop to help him, because he's run out of chances. And A-Train will probably get the lamest death of anyone in the series. Possible. Dying in a lame, pointless way feels exactly right. But I'm kind of hoping Homelander kills him, because clearly A-Train believes there's some reward for loyalty, and obviously there won't be. He could've shown the mildest amount of courage or moral fortitude, used his position to affect even a sliver of positive change, but he chose self-interest instead. The message should probably be, "selling your soul for table scraps will never be worth it."

he'll probably get killed by homelander in a way to show that yes, he is actually as racist as stormfront after literally flirting with Nazism. that or a white cop kneeling on him, given this show's love for referencing stuff that happened in 2020

They were going for an A-Train redemption arc but Ezra Miller hosed it up and now he has to be a bad guy. In all seriousness I don't really think what A-train did was as irredeemable as some people are making it out to be...some guy he doesn't know asked him to help coup his murderous, invincible boss who has super hearing and might have heard their whole conversation. I'm pretty sure 90% of people are going straight to Homelander in that situation.

Starks posted:In all seriousness I don't really think what A-train did was as irredeemable as some people are making it out to be...some guy he doesn't know asked him to help coup his murderous, invincible boss who has super hearing and might have heard their whole conversation. I'm pretty sure 90% of people are going straight to Homelander in that situation. A lot of it's the accumulation of his past behavior, obviously. But it's also a way more loaded situation than you're describing: his murderous, invincible boss is getting more unstable and sadistic every day, constantly demeaning and threatening him personally, and recently went on an unhinged public rant about his inherent superiority over all other men. This following a scandal where he was intimately connected to a literal Nazi. When A-Train floated the idea of stopping a down-tier supe from killing Black people, Homelander not only wouldn't consider it, but seemed to take pleasure in shutting him down. It's not a secret that Homelander is a dangerous megalomaniac, and there's plenty to suggest that he's nearly a Nazi himself. Sure, it's asking a lot for A-Train to trust some rando he just met in a conspiracy against the most powerful man on Earth. But also he knows exactly how dangerous Homelander is. It's not just that he betrayed Starlight and Supersonic; his decision is also a betrayal of his supposed politics, of his community in general, due to his own cowardice and self-interest. The World Inferno posted:I just got that his superhero name is a pun on the A-Train in New York and that he is "a train". Choo choo. The A train is also, specifically, a train line running through Bed-Stuy in Brooklyn and Harlem in Manhattan. It's strongly associated with historically Black neighborhoods in NYC. Packaged identity politics have been part of his thing from the beginning, is my point. Xealot fucked around with this message at 22:43 on Jun 14, 2022 |

Spoilering this in case I get it right, but I bet Homelander invites Blue Hawk, the supe that's been targeting black people to take Super Sonic's place, specifically to get under A Train's skin. In one of the trailers there's a clip of him entering a room wtih Ashley holding the door
