But with the guilt of his mother's death, Butcher pushing him away as a result, Homelander as a father and Soldier Boy as a grandfather, the kid is bound to be a bit messed up. Or they could put someone else in the suit who is actually a match for Homelander and who, as a member of The Seven, can be close to him at all times with no questions asked.

The first three episodes of Gen V will be released on September 29, with following episodes each Friday after that. The news comes after Kripke previously told Entertainment Weeklythat he'd be "100%" down for the third coming of Soldier Boy. But who’s to say she can’t find a way to isolate Homelander to infect only him, or any other Supe who goes rogue, for that matter?Now that season four has officially wrapped filming, it doesn't look like it'll be too long before we find out either. So brace yourselves. According to the show's synopsis, Kent and Lane will be joined by "their best friend Jimmy Olsen as they begin to discover who they are and everything they can accomplish together as an investigative reporting team at the Daily Planet". With this additional pressure, The Boys creator Eric Kripke could be laying the grounds for this to-the-death duel to take place in the coming season. Both A-Train and Hughie deliver on the emotions, creating a tension deserving of their history. It was a perfect, emotionally-charged scene slap-bang in the middle of an orgy. An orgy! Talk about the wrong place at the wrong time.

Yet here he is, three seasons later, not hiding behind lawyers or others to fight for what he wants but standing up to her killer himself. The extent of his powers was first revealed in the season-two finale when he barbecued Stormfront (Aya Cash) after she threatened to kill his mother, though Becca was also caught in the crossfire. While there were many opportunities to goggle at his naked tush thanks to his new Temp V powers, that was not the kind of fleeting attention we're talking about.In that event, fans are guaranteed a dramatic finale – though if we're really being honest, who's ready to say goodbye? Not us.

His shortened lifespan doesn't just mean bye-bye, Butcher – it could also spell the end for The Boys. After all, what is the show without its brute, potty-mouthed, pig-headed leader? The upcoming Adult Swim and Max series is a "coming-of-age" story that focuses on "twenty-somethings Clark Kent, and the bright and driven Lois Lane".Some heavy, emotional stuff for the good guy turned slightly more rogue guy. His union with The Boys was born out of the trauma over Robin's death and has shaped his decisions ever since.
