Fun fact; in the comics, Stormfront is beaten up by Butcher, Frenchie, MM, and Love Sausage. Each representing Britain, France, America, and Russia respectively (The Allies).

Honestly, that’s clever as hell.

Saint_Blaise Mar 23, 2026 +130
The comic series is whole other level of clever and weird and sexism. The TV series could not go there.

Yup that’s a good description of Garth Ennis writing lol. It’s fun until you’re like, nope I crossed the line

Garth Ennis and Crossed the line, you said.

A woman rips her own arm off with pure willpower because she's about to be murdered, which is dumb

gosukhaos Mar 23, 2026 +3
Was that by Ennis? Its been a while but IIRC he only wrote the initial mini and some arcs in the anthology series
3
hypnodrew Mar 23, 2026 +6
It was a later series so probably not fair to lay that particular thing at his door, even if Crossed is his creation and the tone is set early on. For the later series', people always mention the dolphin r*** and never the lady pulling her own arm off, needed to get it out of my system
6
gosukhaos Mar 23, 2026 +1
Yeah the Dolphin I'm quite positive was not by Ennis, might have been Spurrier or one of the other writers on Badlands Would have to check but the ripping off arm lady was from the mini that's between the original and Badlands and quite honestly it was one of the better Crossed arcs all in all(minus the whole guy keeping the zombified tit of the girl he used to stalk bit)

The guy who made the sadness (the Canadian-Taiwanese horror movie inspired by crossed) is directing an official adaptation of crossed next

Unintentional pun because I was not aware he’d written a comic series called Crossed until today lol

drekmonger Mar 23, 2026 +46
> sexism Stormfront is male in the comic, to be clear. It's not Butcher & friends teaming up to beat down a woman.

FeloniousGrump Mar 23, 2026 +19
i think the sexism is all the other scenarios Ennis concocts with women in the comics
19
browncharliebrown Mar 23, 2026 +7
I’m going to be real the boys can be critized for many things. I really think people overstate the sexism. The most I can say is that it fridges Becca ( a decession that Ennis tries to fix in his sequel series. Yes this series has tons of hypermasclunine violence and sexist characters but it’s not sexist.
7
verrius Mar 23, 2026 +3
You don't think there's something to be said that the only one of the good guys that's a woman is literally called "The Female" and essentially never talks...might be a tiny bit sexist?
3
browncharliebrown Mar 23, 2026 +1
No. I think it’s ennis doing metacommentary or trying to.
1
drekmonger Mar 23, 2026 +2
People mostly remember Ennis's cruder work. But check out his more serious books, like Sara (about a female Soviet sniper in WW2). Even in Preacher, there's Tulip. He's not terrible at writing female characters. And Ennis shits on his male characters as much as he does he female characters...he's an equal opportunity misanthrope.
2
ZeroDwayne Mar 23, 2026 +21
If they dont beat down a woman wouldnt that be sexism?

Randvek Mar 23, 2026 +62
> whole other level of clever I mean I agree but probably not the way you think. A lot of the writing in the comic is just downright juvenile.

Enkundae Mar 23, 2026 +29
It’s like an emo thirteen year old suburban edgelord tried to write the most intentionally try-hardy offensive thing he could think of in a desperate scream for attention from his teachers.
29
daandriod Mar 23, 2026 +3
From my understanding, That essentially what it was. This entire series is a thing because the author just has a raging hate boner for the super hero genre so he decided to write his own as a form of mockery.

ReplacementFine7807 Mar 23, 2026 +3
yea but it's corny as shit

Couldnotbehelpd Mar 23, 2026 +1
Yeah I read some of crossed and it’s depraved in the worst way. I heard they’re trying to make it a tv show and they couldn’t make it 1/1000th the level of the comics.

LHodge Mar 23, 2026 +23
No, not even a little bit. Truthfully, the comics are, by-and-large, terrible with bits of greatness sprinkled throughout. Ennis' writing largely depends on shock value with little depth. Preacher devolved into much of the same over the course of its run, disappointingly. Honestly, Rogen and Goldberg really know how to identify the core themes in Ennis' work, and then find a showrunner to work with who can bring those themes and characters to life without feeling like an edgy teenager wrote it to piss off their mom. The television adaptations of Preacher and The Boys are both pretty much unequivocally better than the comics they are adapting in nearly every way. EDIT: Aaaaaand, for what it's worth, the only part of the Preacher TV series that I find lacking is that they didn't ever adapt [this page.](https://external-preview.redd.it/Ur9ejp_qdoyXAjVviI4Yi8TjRQsH4VK60iqTmMsNPhw.jpg?auto=webp&s=bd287efaecdeae9119ccede9961b09f8f489d9bd&app_web_view=android)

Genuinely the only works of Ennis i like is Punisher MAX

gosukhaos Mar 23, 2026 +1
Its a funny twist but in retrospect its Ennis using it to absolve Homelander of a lot of the bad shit he does in the second half of the book because he really loves Superman still

bluehawk232 Mar 23, 2026
Yeah the boys isn't his best it's vulgar for the sake of it. The tv series is much better

TripleThreatTua Mar 23, 2026 +15
The comic series has some good moments but it also is just complete edgy teenager bullshit for a whole lot of it as well. The show is actually really toned down (for the better)

FlameShadow0 Mar 23, 2026 +8
Calling the Boys Comic a “whole other level of clever” is a wild take. The show is a million times more “clever”
8
ForTheLoveOfOedon Mar 23, 2026 +4
Clever is REALLY stretching it. Garth Ennis has the artistic sensibility of a middle schooler—mostly shock value humor, confuses ultra violence and sexual deviancy with edginess, and aims for the biggest reactions from the audience. And much like a middle schooler he can occasionally say something compelling, but it’s ultimately hard to take it seriously because of everything else before it…and after it. He consistently undermines his sparse cleverness, though I’m not sure he actually cares too much as he has established a whole brand and style just the way he is, for which he deserves a lot of props. I just don’t know that I’d call him or the Boys particularly clever, it’s moreover extremely overt and on-the-nose by design.

elros_faelvrin Mar 24, 2026 +1
The comic, from the few panels I read, was made by a person that got his ceral shat on by another comic book writer or something, like the dude reaaaaly went out of his way with his "super people are morally bankrupt" theme.

AndalusianGod Mar 23, 2026 +13
Is Love Sausage not a villain in the comics?
13
OftheSorrowfulFace Mar 23, 2026 +38
Nope, he's friends with the Boys. Mainly because he's a communist, so he hates corporate supes. His main beef is with Stormfront, because they're old WW2 enemies.

*"People like what I have to say - they just don't like the word Nazi."* People say the satire on the show goes over the top - and they're right - but they were the only ones who said it. And even the Nazi part is fading at alarming speed.
186
TheRealtcSpears Mar 23, 2026 +60
The satire goes over the top because f****** idiots couldn't understand who the bad guys are, given a base amount of subtly the show has in the beginning. So the show had to go "well if you're this f****** dumb, we'll just have to make it this f****** obvious"

Seriously. There's no one on this planet who watches the show, that doesn't get that homelander is a bad guy.

JJonahJamesonSr Mar 23, 2026 -4
I literally cosplay Homelander at cons. People know exactly who he is. They enjoy the character while fully understanding he’s a piece of shit. Fans asking me to verbally abuse them in character made that pretty obvious.
-4
prazulsaltaret Mar 23, 2026 +5
If they admit he is bad and then vote for Trump then they don t truly think he s bad considering he s become a Trump caricature.
5
JJonahJamesonSr Mar 23, 2026
I wasn’t vetting anyone’s political affiliation… we were at a comic con enjoying a character. Liking Homelander doesn’t equal endorsing him. I like Lord Voldemort, and I still think child murder is bad. Even Antony Starr has said he doesn’t see Homelander as a direct Trump caricature. He overlaps in some areas, sure, but those traits apply to plenty of populist figures who lean on nationalism and religion.
0
prazulsaltaret Mar 23, 2026 +1
> Even Antony Starr has said he doesn’t see Homelander as a direct Trump caricature. Then he's an idiot. It couldn't be more obvious. Trump said about Covid that it's safe to go outside and the people should go outside, Homelander says the same thing when people are scared that Soldier Boy is back. Trump says he could kill someone and he'd still be voted in, Homelander lasers a guy in broad daylight at the end of Season 3 and then he gets put into the Government in S4. Then there's the scene in Seasons 3 and 4 when: - Homelander gets mad at the Vought talks because people are using terms he doesn't understand and it makes him look stupid, because he doesn't know shit about leading a company; - Homelander gets mad/overwhelmed when the politicians reject him because he has no idea what to do with the country; Both times he got mad he got fact checked.
1
JJonahJamesonSr Mar 24, 2026 +1
Those traits aren’t unique to one person. Public reassurance during crises, exaggerated confidence, clashing with institutions, and not understanding technical language are common across plenty of leaders and public figures. It’s been a trope in film long before The Boys. That’s my point. Homelander pulls from a broader archetype, not a 1:1 template. You can hate Trump and still have basic media literacy

Because it's the PROGRESSIVES who are rounding up people of a certainty ethnicity and putting them in concentration camps while also attacking any foreign county they think they can get away with GTFOH with that nonsense. Saying some dumb shit like that in THESE times is f****** mental

"It's true isn't it? Look around. You'll see it off social media too. Progressives talking a big game but really hate those that support Stormfront or in the middle" That's how you sound right now. No good, well-informed person will support what the right is doing right now. The parallels between the Nazi regime and the MAGA regime are staggering. Sorry to break it to you, but hating Nazis is morally correct.

Possibly the worst fight in The Boys. It’s CW levels of awful on 10x the budget. It’s bad when your fight scene compares poorly with the printer assault scene in Office Space. This just seemed to be assembled for a c**** needle drop moment. Then it just ends without consequences. If this was an anime it would be a fan-service filler scene. Also, it says a lot that after 3 seasons I’m still not 100% sure what Queen Maeve’s powers are. Can she fly? How strong is she? Because the answers seem to change in the show. She just shows up sometimes.
-98
Pure_Incident2807 Mar 23, 2026 +50
Can she fly? I think thats answered in the probably most iconic scene from the show where shes on an airplane. Maybe you just dont pay attention.

Saiga123 Mar 23, 2026 +18
There's also the scene when she and Homelander are dealing with a shooter in an office building and she has to take the elevator while he flies up.
18
KnotSoSalty Mar 23, 2026 +3
This. There are multiple times in the series where she gets places she could only get to by flying, yet also there are scenes where she definitely can’t. [Here’s](https://www.reddit.com/r/TheBoys/s/LAeDXob0Wk) a whole discussion from 5 years ago asking the same question. [Here’s](https://screenrant.com/queen-maeve-boys-diabolical-flight-power-reason/) another discussing that No she can’t fly in the series, but Can in every other version of the character. And hey, I don’t care, I only wish the show was better written. Frankly QM is the biggest story swing and miss in the series run a character that should have been great and instead was completely sidelined to shoehorn in more weird sex stuff.

yea but being worse than the best conveys no information other than it isn’t the best, which means it could still be great, amazing, superb, radical, tubular, etc. it’s like saying ”i have less than a trillion dollars”. true, but a completely meaningless statement, as it gives you no discenrible information about my wealth.

Ya they just beat on her and fail to make a difference then a little boy does what they couldnt, the girl power angle was confusing to me. If they were going to make that big of a deal about the gender they should have killed her, now its just a cringy thing where its exciting but completely useless.

Mave teleports to this fight. She is in vought tower then just appears behind stormfront who flew here. We even see behind stormfront several times and Mave is not there. I know the clip posted ends immediately but if you can find a slightly longer clip take a look at the three victors after the fight. Not a scratch on them. No dirt, no torn clothes, no blood anywhere, every hair in place. Starlight's first two hits after Mave shows up might be the same punch from a different angle. I've looked through the credits and I don't see anyone credited with the choreography for this fight scene. More than likely there wasn't any set choreography the director just said go for it. They don't overcome her lightning or ability to fly, she just stops using her powers for a bit. Is she out of energy? Can she not focus? There isn't any indication. Camera cuts to the guys and they aren't even helping each other up, doing first aid, or anything. They just stand in empty space for a bit to have a gander. Actually I'm noticing now that the guys are all equally unburned, blooded, bruised, dirtied, or affected by the lightning. I guess the lightning affects supes and non-supes the same. There does also seem to be a disagreement between special effects and the props department regarding of the number of guns being fired at stormfront.

KnotSoSalty Mar 23, 2026 +9
I’m getting murdered in the comments here for pointing this out as well. Someone called me an Incel for saying this was the worst fight on the show. I like a lot of these characters, just wish this scene was better written. Honestly a scene where the female leads brutally end Stormlight would have been a peak moment for the show. It could have been the moment that they finally get serious and take an opportunity to end a villain when they’re down. Instead what we get is the worst of both worlds where the show wants us to applaud a moment where the villain gets away unscathed.

The Boys: "There's a superpowered Nazi and none of the men here have powers. The three women here do have powers they're probably capable enough to deal with them whilst we go make ourselves useful over there" Endgame: "I know we're in the middle of a big battle but let's get all the female Avengers to walk together in a line at walking pace, it won't do anything but it'll look super cool."

cinnamonbrook Mar 23, 2026 +40
I don't really understand the complaints about that scene when the whole movie did that. Like Thor duel-wielded Mjolnir and Stormbreaker. They gave Thor and Iron man forced Dead-Parent-Closure. They had Spiderman riding on a Valkyrie Pegasus. They intentionally forced multiple team-ups from the comics (including that girl power shot, most of them iirc are in a comic team-up together). The entire thing was just 3 hours of extremely forced fan service. Like, it was fun, but it's just odd that people are complaining about a forced moment when the entire movie was forced moments.

homogenic- Mar 23, 2026 +22

White dudes gonna complain whenever they're not exclusively on screen lol. This is why representation matters.
-12
wartopuk Mar 23, 2026 +28
Because it was the type of forced moment. It wasn't about random team-ups.. it was gender based to try to make some kind of point about woman power. Were any of the other team-ups or things you are talking about have that kind of a meaning to them?
28
deathlydope Mar 23, 2026 +9
Well, no. When only men appear on screen, it's not a "man power" moment. It's just "most movies and media in general for a significant portion of modern history."
9
wartopuk Mar 23, 2026 +7
Because they aren't specifically portrayed like that. I don't know why it's so difficult to see that this was a very contrived scene for a reason completely different than any other random bit of fan service. You have a male superhero make a comment, and then it's 'female avengers assemble'. It just so happened that they were the only heroes there? What's the chances that all the female heroes ended up in the same spot at that moment in time? That's a far cry from a chaotic battlefield where you have a couple random heroes team up for fan service. This is why people hate that scene. >it's not a "man power" moment That's the real key to this. It's not a man-power moment. And a female hero being on screen shouldn't be a "woman power" moment either, but this clearly was. This is the discussioun around representation and characters who happen to be X vs Characters whose whole identity and purpose in the story is to be X and they don't really seem to be fully realised beyond that.

DarthGogeta Mar 23, 2026 +5
I hated that scene because of the hypocrisy. No Black Widow movie, no Storm movie, years to make Black Panther etc.. But hey, look here, all women, we are so progressive.

Reggaeton_Historian Mar 23, 2026 +3
> I don't really understand the complaints about that scene when the whole movie did that. It's forced. Not only forced, but weakly forced. Captain Marvel just entered the atmosphere and took out an entire ship by herself and suddenly she's going to need Wasp and Valkyrie to get to the ship with the glove? It's really the Captain Marvel bit of it that bothers me. If it had been anyone else, sure, but you just showed off a power level of 10 million to reduce her for a moment before having her go so toe-to-toe with Thanos that he has to use a stone to stop her from overpowering her. I thought this was obvious but I guess not.
3
Shomud Mar 23, 2026 +1
I always point out the scene that preceded it where Scarlett Witch was just about to single handily take out Thanos. It showed her immense power, you were rooting for her because of what she went through leading to that moment and Thanos had to fire upon his own army just to stop her. It was good payoff. The scene with all the women wasn't payoff, it was there just to have it happen.

It was pandering, sure ... but honestly, how much of that movie wasn't? You only notice "pandering" when you're not the one being successfully pandered to. Like I got increasingly annoyed at The Force Awakens as it became increasingly clear how aggressively it was pandering (and how it shredded all the achievements of the OT, holy shit). And yet people were walking out wild eyed talking about it like a cinematic miracle, and even today plenty of people come out of the woodwork to defend it.

fawkie Mar 23, 2026 +5
hello fellow TFA hater! I know I’m going off topic but I really couldn’t believe how much other people liked it when it came out. I had a similar experience watching it as you. Went from “why is the empire still around we had a whole party on Endor” to “oh it’s sand and the falcon ok I guess” to “you gotta be f****** kidding me, it’s just the Death Star *again*?”
5
Caraxus Mar 23, 2026 +3
Yeah thank God. It was frustrating as hell coming out of that theater and everyone acting like "so cool!" The entire movie is just a big grey blah. Don't know how else to describe it. Like if you took the first OT movie and purposefully removed all the sense of fun, whimsy, and character-building. That movie would be ass without Han and Leia dialogue, for example.

Khiva Mar 23, 2026 +2
You might as well be live blogging my thoughts. * Oh, interesting how the opening is an homage to the original with a space view of a large, imposing ship. * Oh, interesting they're doing an homage to the original introducing the antagonist first, walking out with other bad guys in spooky black robes. * Okay, they're .....doing an homage to the original .... by putting critical plans into a droid. * Oh ... an homage to the original .... the protagonist is from a desert ... planet .... ___________________ By the time they got to Cantina 2.0 I was at pure _oh come the f*** on_. And then when they introduced a _third_ Death Star I'd reached peak incredulity. But what can I say, we're well into the reboot, "just play the hits," give me something familiar timeline. And people actually fell for the mystery boxes. Still boggles my mind.

If they had managed to make the characters even remotely compelling it would have gone a long way, but to literally point for point remake the most iconic movie in your franchise with the most BORING protagonists possible is an unforgivable crime.

I feel embarrassed for women that think it's some kind of achievement. How about just have good female led movies where they aren't just mascots in a generic white man bad girls good plot?

When something is outside the norm (white guys) it gets noticed and dissected more. It becomes FoRcEd DiVeRsItY.

Ellyse willems from the defunct YouTube channel funhaus told a story about seeing endgame in theatre and during that scene some guy said “all da girls!” It’s literally all I think about with that scene, like that guy was the only one who did what marvel wanted

It'll always be weird to me that people felt the need to complain that much about a 30 second scene in a 3 hour movie.

It felt like they were patting themselves on the back for having so many female characters even tho only one of them had her own movie at the time.

It was a 30 second moment that spawned a legion of middle aged men screaming into microphones for an ungodly number of minutes. Agree it was awkward. But the reaction has long been infinitely more tiresome.

Yeah and I'm allowed to dislike it without being responsible for every other man who's ever commented on it lmao. Reddit loves to pretend there are exactly 2 people on the internet with 2 opinions.

I think the endgame scene is fine, but one thing I never understood is the decision to give the gauntlet to captain marvel, the super being who just destroyed a ship with her entrance. Kind of cuts the tension about the gauntlet being possibly taken away and everyone defending her. I think if Nebula had the gauntlet instead and everyone was protecting her the scene would be a lot more meaningful.

One thing is cutting through a tank, and another one is getting shot by one. It's improbable that she'd get seriously hurt, but she can still be hit and made to drop the Gauntlet.

If they gave it to Nebula instead of Captain Marvel, you'd hear "Why would they give it to someone on foot when Captain Marvel could literally fly with it?"

No-Target6084 Mar 23, 2026 +2
Yes, that would absolutely happen. Narratively though Nebula would’ve worked better, to convey the themes of the scene.

An easy solution to that would be Thanos appears and CM says I'll deal with him you guys get the Gauntlet where it needs to be. That way you don't have her just blasting through Thanos' army leaving most of them behind.

That’s how much it takes you out of the movie.

Because it's a stand out in otherwise competent movie

well, when you get no p**** and you have no prospects, hopes, dreams, or good shit going on in your life….seeing women succeed, even for a short time, can be really withering.

I always got a chuckle because they really ham fist the "Girls get it done thing" just for Stormfront to leave and finally get put down in an instant by a 10 year old child.

I'll admit, I haven't been keeping up with the show, but wasn't this two seasons ago? Cool moment, but why link it now?

"Guys my wife finds me insufferable enough that a tedious character on an annoying show got an unconscious reaction of happiness from her while me doing the same thing got nothing but contempt and resentment. LOL!"

Pretty sure his wife laughed because he called the obvious and cliche line in advance, which she of course found obvious and cliche, and she had to admit that he had accurately read the writer's intentions. But yeah, sure, whatever unhealthy relationship issues you're projecting with your comment could be it too.
