SkavauThe Boys Creator Eric Kripke On Fans' Response To Series Finale: 'Sorry If I Disappointed You, But It Was The Story I Wanted To Tell'
rozodruI liked the first season. it was shot better, Homelander came off as a manipulative pos instead of an idiotic pos in later seasons, and it followed the original source more closely.
Say what you will about the comic, it’s not everyones cup of tea, but I just hate what they did with Noir in the show. I mean the comic had it setup beautifully for that reveal and the show just didn’t bother to touch it. the MAJOR plot point from the comic, the entire damn comic series revolved around THAT reveal and Kripke was all “nah, i’m good.”
ZeroEightOneFiveNever read the comic, care to explain the noir plot and why it’s so significant?
so in the Comics Black Noir is actually a clone of Homelander and HE has been the one doing all the bad things that Homelander has done while gas lighting the actual Homelander into thinking he has a split personality and doing bad stuff. Vought had cloned Homelander in case he started going rogue and as a result (since he wasn’t going rogue) Black Noir/Clone Homelander starts doing shit as Homelander in hopes Vought will replace real homelander with black noir/clone homelander. the ACTUAL Homelander didn’t do any of it, he was just a manipulative POS.
