the og comics dont even seem like parodies of superheroes instead just "x hero" combined with "x bad trait" not satirizing the hero or the comics themselves but just randomly adding something negative

[@luv83]

Actually this is a criticism of propaganda. The new Soldier boy is a fraud and obvious propaganda tool. The Og comics criticise the establishment and the elites a lot. The show is way more subdued though on the criticism of the elites and instead it's mainly just the seven which is a criticism of celeb culture.

[@theflatasssociety1133]

Garf Ennis’ satire has the feeling of a seventh grader who thinks “adult” means being as shocking as possible

[@the1downs696]

Yeah the comic is not really that good at satirizing super heroes. It's more just a hate fantasy fueled by the authors despise of superheroes in the comic industry.

[@Batchall_Accepted]

Ennis struggles really badly with tone, and he constantly fucks up the message he's trying to send by making shit too juvenile, he did the same thing with preachers "Arseface" character, they tell this harrowing story about child abuse and suicide, just to be like "AHA HE TALKS FUNNY CAUSE HIS JAW IS DEFORMED" on the next fucking page.
It's jarring and makes me feel like he only touches on those topics by accident. There's also a weird amount of victim blaming in it that I didn't catch as a teenager

[@AwkwrdPrtMskrt]

I like the show's version. Soldier Boy in the show is basically Captain America if he was captured by the Russians instead of Bucky, and if Marvel is rebooting their films I can see Jensen Ackles as the new Cap. Comic Soldier Boy just feels like a bumbling fool, and his successor is just Bucky without Steve's guidance, all because Garth Ennis irrationally hates Cap.

the comic is better than the series, but people don't give it a chance and stick with the first thing they hear, they see it in the most superficial way possible

[@lockerbuddy2039]

​@@Nando-gg2hxNah, the comic is ass. It's shock for shock, every villain is just 'superhero parody but what if they were a rapist/bigot/etc', Billy and co are all extremely more cruel and uncaring (to the point that they LAUGH at Hughie after he tells them he was sexually assaulted) and a fucking maaaaaassive list of other issues. It's fine to enjoy it but I wouldn't say people are being unfair in not enjoying it.
I think Garth's just got a problem of intentionally trying to be edgy and shock people considering stuff like Crossed. The general populous prolly isn't gonna be rooting for a character who makes their dog rape someone (one of the many deplorable things Billy does in the comics).

[@barabasz7367]

​@@Nando-gg2hxI wouldn't necessarily say it's better than the show, as I haven't seen it yet. But I understand what you mean.

[@SpedeVesku]

Fun fact, Garth Ennis is convinced that characters like Captain America are insulting to real-life war vets (hence the way Soldier Boy is portrayed in the comics), but any actual research shows that Captain America comics were a popular form of entertaiment for the soldiers during WW2.

Soldier Boy and Stormfront pretty much got fused together and then certain details were kept for different characters.

[@LordMoldoma]

I’m still pretty sure Stain from MHA is an unspoken parody of Garth Ennis.
They both hate superheroes, they’re both intent on making other people see the flaws in the concept of superheroes as a whole, and the only hero that either respects is superman (or in stain’s case, a Superman pastiche.)
Also, there’s something to be said about the hero hunting nature of the main characters in The Boys, and the hero hunting nature of stain himself.

[@lockerbuddy2039]

I think that's quite a reach. Especially with the last point. Billy wants to completely wipe out heroes since (to an extent) they've directly affected him and others in extremely negative ways. Stain does so because he views heroes as generally corrupt n such, not being in it for the good morals but for money and fame.

[@LordMoldoma]

@@lockerbuddy2039 Well, I don’t think it’s a reach to say from a superficial standpoint it’s similar. So go ahead and do whatever makes you feel happy, I remain unconvinced by your argument.

[@alexistaylor969]

Not really. Like all things there are nice additions in the show, but also the comic beats the show in many ways.
For example, in the show it is woke and they made Black Noir a black kid that has some sort of victimhood.
*Spoiler for Comic*
In the comic he was a clone of Homelander minus some of Homelander's powers to make him less of a threat.
His only purpose in life was to take out Homelander and replace him if he went rogue.
He went crazy because Homelander never went crazy or went rogue.
He then realized that he and Homelander had a sort of mental connection and started performing atrocities while dressed as Homelander so that when officials went to Homelander with evidence or suspicions Homelander would have vague memories of the acts.
Black Noir eventually drove Homelander crazy so that he could perform his purpose.
Homelander and Black Noir fight to the death with Homelander completely destroying Black Noir but he is gravely injured and on his way out when Butcher then puts him down.

[@WelshFGC]

@@alexistaylor969I mean, comic Black Noir’s kinda shit, making him a different character works way better.

So that’s why in the actual series a commander comes up and says to the flying hero(bug name I think) to stop flying as it could bring attention to they’re spot and reveal them to the enemy.

[@joshuagross3151]

@thomasb7347 All three are used as a plot device to the Company's bottom line, how they were trying and failing to sell the superhero brand since World War 2. The first one was their marketing pitch to the US Army but was blinded in overconfidence of the finished product. He had no experience in war and thus died for that oversight. The second one was his legacy to ensure the first one's initial blunder wouldn't be discovered. The current iteration is the abandonment of his brand. His name was useful in the War, but with supers like Homelander, his brand has lost its significance. Thus, his latest version is as cheap as the man that wears it.
The series version is Winter Soldier, minus the Trademark dispute. It's unoriginal and when compared to the other superhero programs in circulation right now, it's a cliché.
