Apparently, a The Boys panel is scheduled for Comic Con San P. this weekend. The panel description says that updates will be given on The Boys, Gen V and Vought Rising.

A teaser for Gen V will probably be shown. A teaser for the first season was also shown at this same comic con in Dec 2022.

The Boys is probably one of my favorite shows of all time, but honestly, after giving seasons 1-3 (soon to be four after I finish rewatching Gen V) of The Boys, I really think it might be just a tad bit better than The Boys.

it's a lot more fun and light-hearted, which I like, but still keeps the gore and badass action scenes to a maximum. I also love the college setting and the characters we follow, especially Emma, Sam, Jordan, and Andre (R.I.P. Chance) and how we get to see the good side of Supes rather than the bad side, it really expands The Boys universe and shows you just how massive it actually is.

I don't know man. I love The Boys, but I really think Gen V is something special. I'm really hoping we get more seasons after The Boys ends. Amazon struck literal diamonds with this show.

I can’t stop thinking about what they’ll end up wearing! My big hope is that they somehow incorporate their associated colors (Marie red, Jordan blue, Cate green, Emma pink, etc) while also standing out from the gaudy Vought-crafted super suits we’ve seen in the show. Maybe some unified design as a team (including Cate and Sam if they’re redeemed) but also unique enough to represent their individual tastes and personalities.

Okay, I apologize for my spelling, my lengthy post. It’s pretty long sorry about it.

I get Cate Dunlap has a sad traumatic backstory but she is psychopathic evil like Homelander. I don’t get why Cate Stans think Cate is a good person. Trauma doesn't excuse Cate’s actions. I feel like Cate continues to let Sam Luke and the other Supes suffer in the woods facility because she wants Shetty to keep acting as her mother figure and was dependent on her for motherly love because her real parents never loved her and touched her for nine years and she was isolated locked up in her bedroom. l agree Cate is only a victim because of her trauma of what her parents and Shetty did to her but she is a terrible person and caused people to suffer pain. Cate was complicit in carrying out Shetty's orders, Cate is a terrible person for doing that. Deep down she knew it was wrong but continued helping the woods to experiment on Sam and Luke. They need to stop treating Cate like a baby because she is twenty-one years old and helped Shetty and the woods. Cate is a grown woman

Cate uses her powers to force two guards to sexually assault each other and wrongly frames her friends for the campus massacre. For three years Cate is complicit with Shetty in the woods experimenting on Supes, knows Sam is alive and tortured, doesn’t do anything about it, and brainwashes Luke into thinking his brother Sam is dead, she fakes grieves with Luke over Sam knowing he was still alive like that's just horrible and only becomes Luke’s girlfriend to spy on him for the woods, cheated on him with his best friend Andre. Cate is mad fucking ungrateful because Marie tried to get her help. Marie was the only person willing to let Cate redeem herself and get a second chance. Cate fucks it all up and forced Marie to re-live her trauma two times by showing the traumatic flashbacks of her parent's death, and so much more. Cate is self-aware of her actions and has zero remorse. Cate has a habit of violating people's consent. We see it throughout the entire show.

Sam and Cate working together doesn’t make sense. Honestly, I am confused as to why Sam didn't kill her and then worked with her like nothing was wrong between them. Cate didn't even seem remorseful until she was physically in danger herself.

Now Let’s focus on Sam Riordan. Sam is deserving of a redemption arc. Sam has been isolated from society, faced physical abuse, and experimented on like a lab rat. Sam has the mind of a child. He is emotionally fragile and broken from all the abuse he endured from The Woods. For three years everyone in his family thought he was dead. Imagine Sam’s pain. Sam has been abused for his entire life. Sam never got to be reunited with his brother Luke. Sam never got the time to properly mourn his brother’s death because he was being chased by The security of The Woods. Sam had tried escaping but failed every time because they always found him by using his tracker. Sam is constantly struck in survival mode thinking about when his pain will never end. Sam had been treated like a wild animal. Sam attacking, and killing the guards of the woods is justified. Sam is locked up, his family thinks he is dead, and his brother Luke is gaslighted and brainwashed by his girlfriend Cate thinking Sam is dead. Sam Constantly praying someone would come and rescue him but Luke never came because he kept being stopped by Cate and forced to forget everything. Cate will wipe every memory of Sam from Luke’s brain. The entire pattern repeats itself over and over again while Sam is forced to suffer. Sam also experiences emotional abuse along with physical abuse. Sam can’t think straight for himself because he has a mental illness such as schizophrenia, and Cate also advantage over that by bringing Sam to her side. Here is proof below Cate taking Sam’s feelings away

I wrote a comment on YouTube and I’m gonna copy and paste it here in quotes.

“I hope Sam gets a redemption arc in season 2 by snapping out of Cate’s mind control and killing her.

In the video. Sam started questioning the morality of killing humans on campus, but Cate defended it and offered to help him. Sam, already arguing with his brother Luke about doing the right thing, was clearly conflicted. Cate stood by, watching Sam talk to thin air, and when she asked him what was happening, he ignored her, continuing to glance at his side as if speaking to someone unseen.

Cate questioned Sam again, and he expressed self-hatred. She offered to help, and Sam, in his vulnerable state, agreed without specifying what kind of help he needed. Cate then commanded Sam to feel nothing without clarifying what he actually wanted. This shows Cate was exploiting his fragile mental state rather than genuinely helping him. Plus Cate knew Sam was mentally unstable and had schizophrenia.”

Since Cate uses her powers on Sam to take away his feelings that dramatically changes and affects him. What type of control/free will does Sam really have?

By the way, Eric Kripke, Gen V's co-creator, made a statement about Sam Riordan: "I think Sam has a conscience, and he's a lot more torn about it. But again, as established in Gen V, I think Cate has a habit of touching and sort of pushing him to feel nothing."

Twitter link of his statement : https://x.com/archivegenv/status/1806532493710913768?s=46

This type of information gives me a clue for Future dynasties in season 2 for Sam and Cate

What if scenario: In season 2, Sam allows Cate to push him to feel nothing weekly and Cate does it for him. Cate is doing it because she got permission from Sam.

Suddenly a few weeks later. Cate notices that Sam has his emotions back.

Cate gets tired of asking Sam to do the same thing over again so she decides to push Sam into feeling nothing without asking him for his consent to do it.

Cate will do this multiple times and she thinks it's okay because this is what Sam wants. I think Cate might be secretly manipulating Sam. Cate will make Sam think he has total freedom but Cate makes Sam do things he doesn't wanna do. Lastly, Cate never violates Sam's rules and works along with him. We don't know their dynamic yet. In my opinion, I can see this happening in season two Cate will have a habit of pushing Sam and it will get worse

Question in title.

Just thinking about it cause I’m watching the show and I see they have their bra on but like he turns to a man then the bra does what?? Disappear sure like if he has girl clothes on is he still wearing them as a man isn’t that uncomfortable well at least for me it would be

the leaked trailer? I have seen people discussing it and I am just wondering if anyone had a link to it.

I start to lose interest especially after the 2nd season with most of the shows on Amazon, 8 shows is too short and then the long weight for a new season. just start to fade from the show

Alongside Polarity's arc, another idea I had for season two of Gen V is a resistance against the new regime growing in the background. Just imagine while we primarily focus on Marie and her friends trying to navigate their way through this new America, We occasionally get references of some resistance movement against Homelander in the background. They would be mentioned on VNN as "traitors and terrorists" who have unfortunately betrayed the American way of life to the point that even some Supes have joined them.

At the end of the season, Marie and her friends get approached by the leader of this resistance; who's heard about their activities against Vought and seeks to recruit them. The mysterious leader is revealed to be none other than Annie Janurary herself.

I hope throughout the GEN V season 2 we get glimpses of background news showing several supes being brutally murdered by an unidentified person.The Vought media would either cover it up or blame the Starlighters.

They could just show the main cast in the finale briefly encountering a bunch of tentacles emerging from dark shadows in a facility ripping apart dozens of homelander's supes before barely escaping it.

We don't need to see Butcher but rather being shown a sliver of the monster we will witness in the final season.

In an old interview, the showrunner revealed that S1 had a very limited number of days to shoot and they had to prioritize their time very carefully so that resulted in many episodes being very short, including the finale. But there is a hope that S2 will be given more days to shoot….which would mean longer episodes.

I don't know if this sounds weird, But I kind of had a dream that Gen V season two began with a flashback sequence of Andre's childhood.

How it pans out is that the flashback takes place years ago when Andre was a kid, probably around five or six years old which allows us to get a small peak at what his past was like before the events of Gen V with Polarity raising the boy on his own sometime after his wife's death as alluded to in Season one.

Throughout the flashback, Polarity's shown to be a surprisingly good and attentive father as far as Supes go but still has pretty high expectations of his son due to his powers. The purpose of this flashback is to not only give more insight into Andre's upbringing and give more substance to Polarity's character to make him standout more; but to also show the audience that even Supes have people that they care about and not all of them are raging bigots like Stormfront, toxic pricks like Soldier Boy, rapists like the Deep or homicidal maniacs like Homelander. The audience would also ask themselves that since there are supes out there who have loved ones, do they really deserve to die to the virus even if they haven't done anything wrong?

The flashback eventually ends with the two watching one of his movies on Vought Plus. As they watch the movie, young Andre innocently asks his dad if he thinks he can ever be as good of a hero as he is when he gets bigger.

Polarity, in an act of fatherly pride, bends down to Andre's level and tells him that he has genuine faith that not only will he have what it takes to follow in his footsteps when his powers develop further; but he'll be better than an old man like him; a hero that his mother would have been proud of like he is now.

"And do you want to know why? Because you're made of steel." Polarity says as he gently taps Andre's chest. The boy laughs and smiles brightly as he hugs his father.

The flashback soon ends and we fade to Polarity in the present day still in his hospital bed as he silently watches the news on TV; Cameron Coleman reports an apparent incident on the grounds of Godolkin University where a group of four Supe-Terrorists were "heroically" stopped by Homelander. What catches his attention is Andre being labeled as one of these so called "terrorists"

The Gen V title flashes on screen as we zoom into Polarity's distraught expression; seemingly in denial at what he's seeing.

So whatcha think of this opening scene I made? Any criticism?

Considering the fact the Marie spent the majority of her childhood in a group home and spent most her time solely focused on getting into God u. Do you Jordan was Marie's first actual relationship?

She shrinks after vomiting and grows after eating. What happens after she passes the stool and she has an empty stomach? Is her default size actually her small size unless there’s food in there?

just watched gen v after watching all of the boys. i’ll be honest, i didn’t like it as much as the boys, but i think the show has potential. however, i don’t really understand all the love for jordan as a character? while i do love how they are representing gender-fluid people, they don’t seem to have much of a personality? for the majority of the show they were just whining about the rankings, and then the only development they seem to get is when they have the confrontation with themself in the memory scene, which just felt rushed. maybe part of this is bc they have two separate actors (they’re both good actors imo, but maybe it breaks the illusion a bit?) they also don’t seem to have like any chemistry with marie- all of their interactions with her were negative, and then it just seems like the suddenly like each other? i’ve seen people say that proof that they do have chemistry is when jordan saves marie (from rufus, golden boy) but i feel like most characters in this universe end up saving one another at some point. so, does anyone get all the jordan love?

Hi, looking for any videos/panels/interviews of Alexander Calvert talking abt playing Rufus
