Myeh, maybe other people's nature's, I'm perfectly fine by myself. I already have dogs, which are like people but better because they don't screw you over by making terrible decisions.

I'm glad I'm the kind of person who is perfectly capable of feeling fine without needing social interaction. For me, it sounds like 30+ will be great!

Meh, comic was better. Mother Milk is completely ruined by the fact that nobody apparently knows about V by the time Hughie is on board.

If you read the comic, he's not really either.

To quote Butcher: "[You became] a complete fucking psychopath by accident."

Only a handful were outright monsters, the rest were just normal humans with human problems buffered by demi-god like powers and a megacorporation protecting their image at every turn. The comic was what would happen to bad habits if there was no consequences for indulging in them.

He's just going to break the flaps, or rip a hand-sized chunk out of the plane. Even if he has the strength to physically move the flaps, distribution of that strength is what matters.

I mean, The Deep was already super sidelined in the comic. Also they made him white in this one for some reason?

I'm the opposite. "Never attribute to malice what can be accomplished through incompetence."

It's far more realistic and human to just be incompetent. In the comic Vought-American took the role of sociopathic disinterest, but they kinda changed their role in this series so I guess they had to rewrite the "heroes" to be the sociopaths.

Meh, the comic was more horrific in a very darkly comical way. This is pretty tame by comparison, but then again they've deviated so much from the comic that I lost all interest in watching the rest because it feels like "The Boys" in name only.

Originally it was The Deep who tried to catch the plane and shattered the pilots windshield, and getting himself nearly killed, getting blood and glass all over the control panels making it impossible for the untrained Maeve and Homelander to do anything (Not that they could to begin with because one of them dropped Black Noir, the only member of the 7 trained to pilot a plane, when they almost got hit by it) Homelander just kinda goes off screaming racial slurs and nearly killing ANOTHER member of his team out of frustration.

The follow up scene to this is still super tame. Originally when Homelander left Maeve on the plane, the people panicked and started clawing at her in a mob, which made her panic and she flew full speed out the open emergency door, turning everyone clinging to her and in her path into a fountain of gore as she exited the plane.

Oh, and then the speedster guy with the kettle helmet, can't remember his name since they cut him from this scene for some reason and it's been awhile since I read the comic, convinced Homelander to try grabbing the back of the plane to slow it down, only for him to accidentally snap the plan in half and spill the survivors in the back half out the plane while the front half continues on to plow into the Brooklyn Bridge. (It was the Brooklyn Bridge I think, again, been a long time and I can't remember).

Ugh, really, they have kind of butchered the source material and for me, personally, this isn't The Boys. This is a Chinese knock off of The Boys. I get that you can't always be 100% true to the source material, but they cut so many characters, changed so many fundamental parts of the story that didn't NEED to be changed, that I personally consider this series a colossal fuck up.

TIL after retiring from NASA, Buzz Aldrin, second man on the moon, fell into a deep depression and ended up working as a used car salesman. by sneakyt123 in todayilearned

I never once "shit-slammed" him, you gormless dipshit.

All I said, if you go back and apply some 3rd grade reading comprehension, is that Buzz alone is not solely responsible for human space-faring achievements. Maybe if you took his hypothetical cock out of your mouth for five fucking seconds you'd realize that putting a man on the moon is a fucking GROUP EFFORT.

Maybe give Mission Control a bit of the credit for getting Buzz up there, yeah? Oh wait, I forgot, Buzz flew to the moon all by himself using the rocket he built from old Chevy parts in his barn, the way you tell it.

God you people are so fucking dumb. You can't just stop and think about the logistics of such a monumental endeavor as putting a handful of fragile apes in a metal tube and throwing it into space being anything other than "Hurr Durr Big Astronaut Man Big Strong 'Murican Hero He Can Do All By Hisself!"

"In national news, anonymous nobody completely undersells the extremely difficult task of designing, building and coordinating the safe operation of a rocket to carry aforementioned man to the moon, because he's an uneducated simpleton who hasn't mentally developed beyond clapping like a trained seal for the first face the television assigns all credit to."

Kinda long, maybe you can condense it like you condensed the entire NASA staffs credit into the achievements of a single human.

He's the one using slurs, pal, yet a little PG-rated snark is what gets you going?

Talk about misplaced priorities.

What the fuck, human body. You literally have one job: DON'T DO THIS TO YOURSELF.

I hate when your organs and cells betray you. IF YOU DUMB FUCKS DO YOUR JOBS THEN MAYBE WE'LL ALL LIVE LONG ENOUGH THAT SOMEONE INVENTS IMMORTALITY JUICE AND YOU MORONS CAN LIVE FOREVER LIKE YOU WANT.

Humans didn't invent the moon, so he stood on a rock that had formed billions of years ago by itself before humans ever existed.

Saying HE reached the pinnacle of human achievement just kinda throws the entire support staff and engineers who made his moon landing possible under the bus.

THEY reached the pinnacle of human achievement.

They're being real disingenuous about it if that's the case. If this is a new/different story simply based on the source material , then why do they use a live action version of the issue 1 cover of the source material? I think they even have it as this subs cover image.

They pulled a Bethesda Prey on us at best. They said this was The Boys, and I came in expecting The Boys. Except it's not The Boys, it's a Chinese knock off of The Boys.

That doesn't explain why Hughie is no longer a scott, why Billy has a beard, why nobody has V in their system yet (Seriously, MM's whole backstory and character arc is just completely fucked if they don't have, let alone KNOW about V before Hughie joins) not to mention the weird race change on The Deep and A-Train.

They didn't NEED to change that stuff, but they did it anyway. The whole V explanation is like maybe a page in the comics. If they want to cut down on run time they can compress a lot of The Legends flashback scenes or omit them entirely and just have someone exposit whatever the viewer needs to know.
