@@steps3344 the open casket funeral for translucent was better. They only had pieces of his body. So, they just said he was invisible and put an empty coffin on display for people to walk past. A statue is up at all times. Someone is going to try to touch it. The statue is a worse version of the same joke from the first season. Plenty of great jokes in the show. 👍
I think another point to make is that Soldier Boy probably mutilated Noir to ruin any chance of being shown on television without his mask, and therefore Noir couldn't ever be marketted as the first black man in The Seven because Vought doing so would've meant showing off the scars Soldier Boy gave him to the public. It's easily the cruelest thing Soldier Boy ever did.
@@BigLettuce07 We can never be sure, murders like what happened with Marvin Milk seem more like Soldier Boy being a dumbass, it's difficult to know how many murders he committed that were in the first degree. Considering his time on black operations, I'd say it's likely he's done worse, but I'm only forming an opinion based on what we've seen or heard him committing on screen.
@@liljanos Even with the initial image it's still possible there would've been a second info graph with the rest of the supes. Meaning the title is still misleading.
@@iamjaydone all good figured you probably meant arm and you did a lot of research so there’s probably a few things overlooked but good video. Make more like this and you’ll have 100k in no time
Good overview. It was confirmed in season 4 that Tek Knight does have his suit of armor he wears In the comics which would explain his name. I wish they would’ve shown what it was capable of.
I doubt there are others tbh. There really aren't all that many supes around, I think in Season 1 when they were holding the Shareholder meeting that announced Starlight they mentioned there were 300 supes under the Vought umbrella. Granted there are probably many more that aren't, but even if that number is just 5% then there are less than 6,000 supes in the world
It’s sad to think about noir before season 4 because his parents basically screwed him over. They gave him powers and that led to the abuse from soldier boy and having his brain smashed in. Then it led to homelander killing him.
@@julixnsito or a combination of the two. both batman and iron man are similiar in that they are rich and have no powers just advanced tech. tek knight (iron man and the dark knight)
Very informative video, but I did notice a couple of minor mistakes. Maeve broke every bone in her arm stopping the bus, not every bone in her body. Homelander doesn't have slowed aging, as a plot in the current season is that he's showing signs of entering middle age at 43 years old (born in 1981, as the video mentioned) which seems pretty normal.
There's no mention of Soldier Boy being born in 1919 (in the series, at least) but Stormfront says she was born that year specifically. Also, the story about him being a hero in WW2 was confirmed to be a myth in season 3 (by his former manager, as far as I remember).
as someone who is aware with the series' popularity an characters but not much of the characters' backstory, this is very helpful! looking forward for part 2!
Homelander doesn’t age slower he ages just like a normal human because we see in s4 he starts to notice his pubic hair turn white and he starts to collect and put some in a jar, my theory is the reason why he ages normally like a human is because he wasn’t given the same compound v as stormfront and soldier boy, which resulted in them having superpowers as well as aging much slower than anyone we’ve seen on the show plus if they really wanted to show that homelander ages slowly they could’ve hired a younger actor to portray homelander to really give an emphasis on him physically looking young but chronically he’s older
8:59 I think you are under a misconception, Soldier Boy is not Vought's most valuable asset. Vought's most valuable asset is in fact the recipe for compound v.
No matter how many times I see that Sister Sage introduction, it'll never not blow my mind that she's wearing a Palace shirt. The joys of living in the middle of bumfuck suburbia and being able to go "Wait, I recognize that, that's from here in bumfuck!"
@@whato2051 nah shes just so cool dude what cant you love abt an assassin backstory with deadpools powers and shes mute so shes like mysterious and shit
Fun fact: The real, actual Queen Maeve's tomb (well, mound) can be seen as a slight bump on top of a mountain in County Sligo, Republic of Ireland, which you can see if you're driving from Sligo to Galway.
I love how the supes aren't as psychotic as homelander and just wanted to do some good while getting the doe. Too bad they wanted the doe more being good most of the time.
Think you probably should have Mentioned Lamplighter,Gunpowder, Crimson Countess, Mindstorm, Supersonic, Shockwave, and Termite despite getting barely much screen time. Still good video
Plus the TNT Twins, Webweaver, Laddio, Ryan Butcher, Blue Hawk, Popclaw, Mister Marathon, Eagle the Archer, Zoe Neuman, Ezekial, Mesmer, Silver Kincaid, Blindspot, Cate Dunlap, Sam Riordan... Am I missing anyone else?
Cindy! And her backstory is probably the same as Love Sausage: a mentally ill patient at Sage Grove who was chosen to be a test subject for the effects of V in adults. Sam is allegedly the only one who was already a supe when admitted to the clinic.
i wanna know how they convinced everyone it was god making supes because they kinda just appeared after WW2 and no one really questioned it just said whatever it must be god
considering everything in The Boys is a political/religious allegory... I might not be correct, but I think it's a jab at Protestants and the idea of predestination. The idea is that Protestants (Calvinists specifically) believe that they don't know whether they go to heaven or hell, so they seek signs in their life on Earth - success, especially economic success, is seen as a sign. but they are not chosen by God to be successful, to be wealthy - those successful Calvinists are *made*, created, and then claim that others are simply deemed unworthy from birth, that they weren't chosen, if they do not end up successful. Read up on *The Protestant Ethic and the Spirit of Capitalism*, Max Weber argues that these Calvinists spawned Capitalism - they created the conditions by which people's success are now measured - I don't know, maybe I should study an arts degree to communicate this better but I see a connection there
What I dont understand about Annie is if she can control electricity, why couldn't she control people's electric signals in their brains or heart? Her power is relatively weak in The Boys universe but, theoretically, she could be a lot stronger. I hope they explore it more in the final season because it does seem shes getting stronger with her powers.
She can control electricity as long as it's electricity from the power grid, that's why she needs ceiling lamps, floodlights, electric wires etc. to be present and when she gets angry lightbulbs exploding are the first sign of her superpower.
Spoilers: The Deep used to be my favourite because I thought he had a chance at being redeemed, but then it turned out he wasn't sorry for any of it 🫤 Chace Crawford's looks can only go so far.
the fucked up thing is he did have a chance to be redeemed but through his actions and choices he repeatedly turned away from that option and doubled down on being a shitheel
I respect you for doing A-train first considering he’s more of a hero then any of the 7 and even starlight😂 but still next to queen Maeve and starlight least those 3 are one of the good ones
i know people love to hate on her but genuinely, she has done heroic things since the beginning. one of her first episodes she's saving a date grape victim
Would love to have seen lamplighter, blue hawk, gunpowder, Andre Anderson, little cricket, mindstorm, Cindy, termite, Ezekiel, crimson countess, and popclaw. Kind of figured all of those characters were interesting enough in their own way for better or worse Edit: my bad, I read your comment above. I just figured every supe meant every supe we had seen in the show
Fun fact I guess “the boys” are filmed in Canada those are VIA Rail cars in the background and a Via rail locomotive at the scene at 1:33. Didn’t know that
Nice video. You really got a lot of details down but you forgot some like tek knights brain tumor makes him have a fetish for any type of holes. The Deep also got kicked out of the seven not just left. Really good video though please make a part 2!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Actually, in the show, Marie is the last of the group to wake up in the room. All of the rest of them survive... and from all of the main cast, only Cate and Sam aren't in the room.
