What Experiments Were Done On Homelander As a Child | The Boys Season 4 

Homelander could’ve actually been an actual good supe if he had good parents every kid needs.

How many attempts were there before they got Homelander....... How many children were injected with compound V and then Tortured. There no way Homelander was their first try

i think allen got superman's power confused with Metroman, explaining why he thinks superman cant see through copper

I think being a father might actually make homelander a better person. As we see his relationship with Ryan progress, we can see how he starts to connect Ryan's childhood to his own and how he wishes to genuinely protect Ryan from the same trauma and the same feelings. Ryan is basically a tool for homelander to develop his massively under-developed empathy. Homelander is big time dissassociative, due to ptsd. He even has an alternate personality, a la the green goblin, but not to such an extent. But as we can see, Ryan is the one thing that shatters all of that. Might not be what most people consoder good, but I think Ryan will make homelander a better person

The duality between Homelander and Superman proves why upbringing is so important in influencing the kind of person you become. Superman was raised in a Smallville farm by loving parents, who showed him the best of humanity, as well as around people who loved the Kent family through thick and thin. A community that saw itself as one big family. Homelander grew up cold and alone in a lab, and he saw the worst of humanity through torturous experiments. He didn’t see that people were capable of love, he only remembers the trauma he went through.

Homelander is just as much a victim as the people he victimizes. Vaught is the true evil. Homelander is broken and pitiful if you really think about it

One experiment Homelander says, while it didn't kill him, being trapped in the furnace did hurt. It makes me wonder if he has a vulnerability to extreme heat

Superman can’t see through lead my guy not copper

Yeah, that character is a prime example of a created villain. The scientists knew it too. It's a fictional story, but I still have wonder what they were thinking the outcome would be. Give a baby superpowers and then raise him like a lab rat. What could possibly go wrong! ?

Homelander is the product as a super citizen he isn’t even built as a soldier just a Clark kent who can fly and has all powers. Anytime in his childhood a failure may be in comparison to black noires actions

I swear I'm sure The Boys will find a way to make us actually feel bad for Homelander 😭😭

I will completely admit that I have not touched the comics. However, I have watched the show. Learning all of this about Homelander made me go from “He’s a really cool villain that’s fun to watch” to “Damn, now every time he’s on screen, I feel really bad for him.”

How are you gonna say anyone who’s taken temp V can’t reach anywhere near the levels of Homelander when Butcher literally was able to square up with him for a good amount of time???

Superhearing has never been a disadvantage for Superman once he mastered it. What bullshit.

Experiments? He simply had more compound V as far as we know, though I could see him having gotten the original recipe like soldier boy, stormfront, etc.

He needed someone stronger than him to show him the right way & how to forgive.

heard deadpool went back in time for baby homelander too

Thanks for this new Homelander video love this channel

Dosnt matter what he went through. You can only be judged on what you do now !

Fast forward to episode 4 of season 4... Homelander's childhood lab seems to remain in operation by the same staff who raised him. But we didn't get to see who/what their current project was.

Almost feel bad for him but no. One power he doesn't have is emotional maturity. A lot of people had crap childhoods but that doesn't give anyone the right to be crap adults.

Are you a robot? Thats not how you say laboratory. You said lab-rat-ory. Lol😂🤣

On what basis do the Supes get differnt types of power. Is it becuase of the the differnce in components of Compound V or the quality of the serum?

That baby wasn’t Homelander’s son, it was Noir’s. Homelander didn’t SA Becca.

5:50 why you say la bora tory like that 😂

This is the stuff that makes you feel bad about Homelander. I honestly think because he was mostly alone- all the time he made a second persona to try and pick him up and I think the directors are going to take that and twist with it maybe to the point where homelander has a twin or something - and he has still been experimented on, and maybe they wiped it from Homelander mind when he was a child, but I feel like when he talks to the mirror one time he’s gonna think he’s talking to a mirror but he’s gonna talk to his actual twin, who is probably a lot stronger due to more experiments that’s just my theory. It doesn’t look like black noir is going to be what he was in the comics. I did like his Deadpool like vibe, I really wonder if it’s still the same black noir and maybe he’s trying to come to the boys place to like actually talk to them, but they automatically think they have to fight. That’s what I think also, I feel like there’s a redemption coming for, possibly a train -- I feel like a train is gonna help them in the end, and he’s gonna like go out ( die ) saving someone - I have a weird feeling he might save Huey and say hey I’m not as bad as you think and then die - kinda like what they do flash every time Justice league fight someone either has to run to a different dimension or straight up, tries to save someone and gets destroyed lol 😂 i’m gonna call it now. I think Homelander is going to rip off the head of the head popper Victoria. Mrs bj on the senate lol ( that was a throwback to when she said they were posting deep fakes of her, blowing some guy in the Senate room - lmao I forgot remember that person that she was like friends with and knew her actual name, did she end up killing him I think so. I remember her but I believe that when he tries Homelander to kill Victoria Newman, he’s going to have to deal with her power also and I think it’s gonna do something to his mind. Maybe make him look all red in the eyes like they did towards the end of the comic run --like really freaking nuts. -- I will never forget the beautiful moment when Homelander spanked his monkey just because he could in mid air- I know it’s all from the comic, but Seth Rogen does such a good job of laying down the jokes and other shit and Kripke has done an awesome job all the way through. I feel like when Rogan got on board it was like a boost of energy anyway what do you guys thoughts?

Homelander is off the charts 😂 anyone that sees him as an inspiration needs to reflect ASAP 😅

They could have got him a super powered mother

7:55 Superman can see through copper your thinking of mega mind. It's lead he can't see through.

I love it when content creators put intentional errors in their content. Superman can’t see through copper? 👍 Congratulations you got my comment. 😅

4:35 caught me off guard😂💀💀

That fucking music!!!! 😍

Homelander while being a villain is purely human. He is in fact a victim of Vaught.

It only takes 70-90 hz of sound to break a skull so if they turn it up they should be able to burst the supervillains eardrums and skull.

6:15 That sounds exactly like eleven 😅 So they trolled them also

I'm just gonna yoink a couple of the pure vials of that compound V, don't mind me...

That butcher comic scene 💀

My poor baby!!!

Superman can't see through LEAD not copper. Seeing as how lead blocks bits of radiation Because Xrays or Xray Vision would be a form of radtiation

Homelander=Cia found the capsule, before the Kent's do

Fact: villains are not born they are made

7:58 think you meant lead my g.

there is no way he could survive an armor-piercing tank shot if he got a bruise from a punch that wasn't even supersonic, also nukes no way he can survive the temperature of the suns core

I’m confused on how he wasn’t able to punch through the door in his cell.

Superman can’t see through lead not copper lmao

Homelander's a lot similar to Sephiroth

07:04--- All Star Superman pose.

Suprised they didn’t find some weakness of his in all these experiments

I don’t blame him for being evil at times

superman cant see though lead

Supersonic could have been a good foil for Homelander with his sound wave abilities…too bad…

Episode 4 of Season 4 shows Homelander could have left the bad room at anytime he wanted

We also know that he’s durable to a point. SB scares him. Enough Supes together can take him down. And Maeve was able to make him bleed by just punching and stabbing him.

Homelander is Zach Morris with Power

I am pretty sure Andre Anderson from Gen V inherited his powers from his father Polarity.

He was literally born in a lab’s ovary.

If Vought ever truly modifies Compound V , it'll be able to turn a person into Superman, maybe even a Charles Xavier or a Jean Grey.

Don't forget that Superman has the heritage of a race evolved on a planet with a much higher surface gravity. (lois Lane needed some for of anti-gravity when she went there prior to it's destruction before kal's birth) Since he pushed himself to limits when tyraining/excercising, this means that he retains this, which in turn means that in the event of exposuyre to gold kry[ptonite, we would retain that relative strength and reflex/ In the event that Homelander encounters something that removes his abilities he would be just normal, and probably less so, since its doubtful he would have the mental push to do proper to the limit-training. Heck as Superbopy, he even did regular exposure to green kryptonite, not to build up an immunity as some thnk, but so that exposure to it would not be a shocking as it would be to a Kryptonmian who had never encountered it, in preparatiopn for Phantom Zopne criminals escapinbg or reaching the end of their sentences. So, on a blow by blow, Good old Clark beats Homelander out of the court. Oh yes, and don;t forget the Gaurdians considered Jor and Lara to be candidates to be two of the best Lanterns ever, and for their son to lead the Elite Lanterns when he came of age... so Kal wins over Homelander on focus opf attention and purpose too.

So Homelanders childhood was a true Kasper-Hauser experiment.

8:06 wait did you just say superman can’t see though copper? It sounded like you did but that definitely can’t be right no one would make that mistake by accident.

people thought a real family should have raised him, but they didnt see how much could go wrong when he kills everyone by accident

Superman can’t see through lead.

6:25 For those who think that the TV show can´t get more extreme.

Well seeing as how Maeve was able to pierce homelander's ears I'm pretty sure his eyes are a weakness it doesn't matter how strong the individual is without eyes homelander is nothing

will he eventually stop aging tho like his dad

Song name?

Just to clarify: his mother didnt "presumably die" she was ripped apart by homelander clawing his way out

Considering Mave (Maeve?) could make him bleed with a metal pipe.. yes he 10000000000% can be killed

7:57 err superman can't see through copper, I think you mean lead don't you 🤔

It was either Maeve or Madalyn that said they even used nuclear weapons on him. My god. 💀

“ Get in the oven Frank “

Horror version of Astrix and Obelix magic potion?

Vogelbaum's right. Homelander should've lived a normal life in a home with a family who loved him. Although given who Homelander's birthfather is, he probably would've turned out the same either way.

I actually think Ryan will grow to be even more evil than Homelander. You can see Ryan is hinted to be Sociopaths.

Metroman can’t see through copper. Superman can’t see through lead

The show also shows how people's brain chemistry and personality plays a role in supes. Kumiko has gone through hell abd back. She's been killed by Black Noir but has healing factors. Kumiko feels the pain from fighting and she definitely has emotional trauma. But she isn't a psychopath narcissist like Homelander. Kumiko even started drinking beer to numb her pain. She's considered almost animalistic as she can't speak along with her fighting style. While Homelander looks human, is more polished, and superficially pleasing but is dumb as a tree stump and has no humanity. It's the fact that Homelander was already a psychopath rhe day he was born. He entered the world killing his mother out the womb. Kimiko without being sex trafficked wouldn't have ever hurt a fly.

its possible the new Black Noir will be the Homelander clone

I hope they do it differently in the show and homelander ends up calming down, idk I think it would be cool to see a chill homelander but idk, the idea of Ryan having to eventually kill Homelander is kinda sad

Why did you say copper? That's Metroman (and not really) Lead bro. Lead

Superman cnt see threw lead not copper. Copper is ultraman

Yep, episode 4 confirmed the mother died during birth seeing as he lazered his way out of the womb.

I thought Superman can’t see through lead?

When did Superman start not seeing through copper????

6:35 😂

Superman can’t see through Lead…

You you're the real hero!! How dare you talk about ME!? I'm the face of the SEVEN NOT YOU also I need 🍼

I hope s4 solder boy updated and homlender & ryan & solder boy create family. Boys team only way powerful virus other clone of homlender

Or just ignore the fact in the comics black noir setup homelander, so he definitely wasnt the failsafe. He's literally the reason the series goes the way it does with everyone thinking its real homelander doing all the terrible things.

Guys Is There a BOYS Animated Show?

Superman can’t see through lead

Black noir dies. Season 4 we see that he’s back… so Yunno he might be the clone now

I'm glad that something like this doesn't exist, with the way assholes act today I feel like the world would be 10x worse than the boys universe. Speaking as someome who would absolutely abuse his powers.

lead superman can’t see through lead

Lead* 7:58

Superman cant see through LEAD not copper

Stan is more evil than homelandar. Like look at his daughter Victoria she f**King so cunning. Even if you compare Zoe to Ryan. Zoe is lethal she shows no mercy in destroying anyone harming her mother. Whereas Ryan actually thinks 100 times before attacking only out of pressure if someone harm his dad. I truly think Stan is very cunning character. Isn't he ceo of Vaught. Also he very smart and clever. Homelandar was abused by vaught. I am suprised homelandar hasn't killed Stan, he attracted to his abuser or where you always back to your abuser.

Superman can't see through lead, Not copper brother

Lead my dude I’m pretty sure Superman can’t see through lead not copper

Knowing Homelander his "trauma" will actually be something really stupid that only his insecurity and ego would believe are negatives. Like his love for his blanket or something.

What homelander did to the scientists when he found them was justified.
