I think the boy will eventually turn and kill Homelander. [Reply]
Or could Homelander end up destroying the entire world and he left to rule over an ash heap... could see them working in some sort of shitty political message there. [Reply]

That's a very real fear for Vought, and from what I read concerning this show a new Black Noir is coming into the fold. [Reply]

Oh really?
Fans of the comic should have some idea of the plan there, then.
Spoiler!
Vought created Homelander 1x. No reason they couldn’t do that again…
So I just binged this season over the last week or so.
It was definitely better than Season 2. Man, as an aside, Kimiko is just freakin' beautiful this whole season.
And yes, I get it, it was super on the nose with the MAGA stuff and yeah, conservatives are caricatures. I can't bring myself to give a shit. It's Seth fucking Rogan writing it, of course this is what he's up to.
I thought it was a really good season that was damn entertaining. Though I'd be totally cool with them moving on from the 'Deep fucks fish' thing. We get it. That joke's pretty played out at this point. [Reply]

Yeah, that wouldn't surprise me at all and I'd be even less surprised if it was AFTER he killed Butcher (who makes some heroic sacrifice to save Hughie).
Because really, there's just nothing for Butcher at this point. He's gone. He's a shell of a human being who barely even wants to live and even at that, he'd be fine dying if it meant taking Homelander out with him.
Once Becca died, the end game was written for Butcher, IMO. I'm not convinced he even cares about Ryan other than NOT wanting him raised by Homelander. So if Homelander dies and Butcher goes out in the process, Butcher's gonna see his promise to Becca fulfilled.
From a strict storytelling arc, there's just no redemption even possible for Butcher at this point. So why bother with it? He's a broken man with no foundation left to cling to. [Reply]

Seth is a super immature D-bag, so he'll sadly probably continue to run that right into the ground. [Reply]
