    I think people don't realize one thing. While Homelander is the strongest hero shown in the show next to Soldier Boy. Homelander in the comics knows he can be beaten if a human took the altered V and there were enough of them. It just takes someone getting the correct powers. Like if Mindstorm came after Homelander, he wouldn't know how to handle him.

    I love how Homelander seemed almost nice to Starlight when he said he needed the room.
    But because he's so screwed up you could rationalise it any number of ways. The simplest being that he knew that he needed to save his energy for Stan, who has consistently been able to dismantle his ego every time they talked alone.

    • @fredfry5100
      @fredfry5100 7 месяцев назад +57

      Not really, one of the things I find interesting about Homelander is that he really is a genuinely nice guy... when his ego/sense of control "isn't" being threatened. Then he's more of a dick. Unfortunately, given how sensitive both his feelings, and hearing are, the only real way to not trip his issues is to be in another room.

In a way, Butcher is right about all supes because they don't think of ordinary human beings as being their equals. That's what makes Stan stand out. The dynamic is completely reversed with him.

    I miss stan. He had homelander under, at the very least, a bit of control. Nowadays a massacre happens in a university, homelander shows up, helps the people commiting the massacre and Vought just sweaps it under the rug

      Did you know there's a writers strike going on right now, and it'll probably be a little while before we get anything on S4

    Can someone explain what Stan meant when he said as long as he was CEO Homelander is under control “and we both know why” ?

    Stan I think has the power to calm people, which is why Homelander doesn't kill him outright.

    Wait, how did the official Sony pictures channel upload this clip? I thought only Amazon Prime Video has the official rights to this show 🤔
