‘The Boys’ Comic Was Kinda Terrible

His name is Optimus Primal you goddamn wastoid show some respect

>>Didn’t know about the comic until the show was announced, decided to read the entirety of it before the show came out.
literally me, the first season made me want to read the comic, but after I read first 20 issues I immediately came to hate the show for missing the point of its source material
>>Finds the comic too edgy for edge’s sake
The show has a close up in the gay man's dick, so...
>believes it’s just more of Ennis’ manifesto of his hatred of superheroes
yes, that is the point

>>Didn’t know about the comic until the show was announced, decided to read the entirety of it before the show came out.
Good for him I gues
>>Finds the comic too edgy for edge’s sake
What a thin skinned faggot
>>Doesn’t think the comic is a clever deconstruction like Watchmen, believes it’s just more of Ennis’ manifesto of his hatred of superheroes
Of course its not Watchmen, does he think its trying to be?
>>Believes it’s too formulaic, with The Boys meeting an obvious parody of a superhero and then finding out their degenerate secret, and then The Boys kill them
Plenty of shit happens inbetween, but I guess those parts dont matter
>>Believes the show has more complex heroes, and that Ennis makes them all irredeemable in the comic to an unrealistic degree
The whole appeal of the comic is being agast at corporate pred superheros pretending to be something their not while acting out all their desires as an actual human with god like powers and access to just about anything the corporation is willing to buy them, these are people mostly either created and brought up from childhood to be super stars with no equal or carefully selected pieces of shit who will go along with the facade enjoying the fucked up lifestyle on the side as they rob the braindead masses with merch ect. No nice person is going to sign up for this and survive long without dying, being dropped or ending up damaged physically or mentally.
>>Believes the show’s characters not having V gives it more tension then the comic, where they all have V and can kill superheroes without much problems.
And that sure turned out amazingly didnt it.
>>Thinks Homelander is much more expanded on in the show.
Subjective, I have no interest in ever learning more about the show iteration than I already have
>>Hates the comics ending with the Black Noir twist and Butcher killing everyone
Of course he would, I wonder what this retard would replace it with instead.

Terror...fuck the critic.

The whole appeal of the comic is Ennis seething and malding about superheroes you retard. There it no depth whatsoever you coping shit brain. Go back to reedit you manchild dumb shit.

Jewtubers are not a comic or cartoon

I only skimmed throe the comic but yeah I don't really see the appeal of every last super being a absolute psycho. even when the point is to see them die I didn't find it exciting when every character was so boring or just stupid.

Eh, the comic is literally "what if superheros, but they're rapists and degenerates?" Not that the show is some masterpiece, but at least Homelander has more to his character than sexually assaulting women.

fuck off shill

>but at least Homelander has more to his character than sexually assaulting women.
Sup reddit

The comic was just another anti-bush story

>Eh, the comic is literally "what if superheros, but they're rapists and degenerates?"
You mean, "what if superheroes, but they act like actual corporate people?" because every evil action they is the exact same thing rich corpos do and get away with.

>Not that the show is some masterpiece, but at least Homelander has more to his character than sexually assaulting women.
Homelander is way more nuanced in the comic because Noir framing and other incidents turned him worse than what he was. He didn't start off how he ended he was changed over the course by vought
