It's been a year of calm. Homelander's subdued. Butcher works for the government, supervised by Hughie of all people. But both men itch to turn this peace and quiet into blood and bone. So when The Boys learn of a mysterious anti-Supe weapon, it sends them crashing into The Seven, starting a war, and chasing the legend of the first Superhero: Soldier Boy. Season 3 arrives June 3rd, only on Prime Video.

Can’t wait, love the show, hope it doesn’t decline!

 

[StreetsofBeige]

Got to get around to watching rest of season two. Only saw the first few episodes. Blonde chick hot as hell.

 

[Burning Blade]

Can’t wait for the new season!

 

[R6Rider]

Looks like it's going to be another great season. They really packed that trailer.

 

[Mattdaddy]

Feels like they're building towards a big climatic battle with Homelander.

I know he's a crazy evil fuck but damn I hope he doesn't die lol. That character is so good and the actor kills it, show would lose a lot of the spice without him.

 

[Werewolf Jones]

Mad that Soldier Boy was some beta male in the comics who Homelander casually raped and now he's some alpha chad played by one of the dudes from that show that went on way too long.

Adaptations do hit different.

 

[PrimetimeKnight]

Hopefully it's better than season 2. I didn't hate it but it felt like a decent drop from 1. I liked the Stormfront and Homelander stuff but didn't like The Boys' story arc.

 

[Ozzy Onya A2Z]

Yes. All of my yes. Great to have a trailer and a release date just around the corner.

 

[Rockondevil]

Looks great. Homelander is so good and I can’t wait to get more of him.

 

[nkarafo]

I want to see Homelander finally not giving a shit about his reputation. There is a scene in the previous season that teases how that would look. Its the only thing holding him back from not turning the whole world upside down and bow to his will.

 

[Facism]

Can't wait for The Lads.

 

[InfiniteCombo]

Blonde chick hot as hell.

Yes... Yes she is

Season 1 was supremely excellent. Season 2 was good but had some flaws. One of them is that things started becoming a bit too "on the nose" (obvious); Stormfront being a literal Nazi, and that one politician being a stand-in for AOC, was a bit much for me. (I'm not kidding; one of the cast members, in post-season interviews, does refer to that character as "AOC").

Hopefully Season 3 will return to what made Season 1 awesome and get away from trying to be too obvious about social commentary.

 

[AJUMP23]

Yes... Yes she is

I think she has sharp knees and elbows. That is why she has the boots and gloves. Far below my standards and don’t even know what people see in these sharp appendages people.

 

[Dr.Guru of Peru]

I feel like Ive just seen the whole season.

Stormfront is an actual character in the comics and was a Nazi... That's the point of the character!

The congresswoman was originally a man in the comics and was a complete stooge! This change doesn't bother me but I can see how it bothers others. Given that she is a villain should give you some relief? She isn't a hero by any means.

Yet you have no context to what any of it means other than them taking certain parts from the comics (Butcher getting juiced up).

I mean, sure. But it's not like I would turn her down if I had the chance

It's not about the content, it's about how the content is realized, in the artistic sense. So what the characters are -- Stormfront being an actual Nazi, or the congresswoman being a villain (after she spent the season being an AOC-style populist) is fine. Now, how that's delivered in an artistically convincing way, is what doesn't sit right with me.

I think that made way more sense in my head...

Looks great though I do agree the trailer seems to show a bit too much.

Feels like they're building towards a big climatic battle with Homelander.

I know he's a crazy evil fuck but damn I hope he doesn't die lol. That character is so good and the actor kills it, show would lose a lot of the spice without him.

I seriously doubt they will kill him until they are ready to end the show. He is by far the best part about the show and they know it.

He basically carries the whole thing. The whole "the boys" part of the plot was really weak in S2

 

[Punished Miku]

Can't wait. Pretty much the best show on these days.

 

[Clear]

Antony Starr is the MVP. Homelander basically holds the show together.

 

[MastaKiiLA]

This was my clear favorite comic book show, until Peacemaker came along and made it a toss-up. Hopefully the writing stays strong, because the cast really does a great job in their different roles. I don't follow the comics, so that's my impression based on just the show.

 

[mortal]

Looking forward to it., but man that trailer looks spoilery.

 

[Darkmakaimura]

I almost forgot about the new episode today. Thanks for the reminder.
