Short preface, I am a big superhero fan. Grew up with wolverine, gambit, Venom and Carnage as my favorite characters. Was difficult b/c parents thought it was just violence and limited my exposure. I also had a bit of 'dark ages' essentially the same time as Lego, but after college, the MCU has completely blown up leading to my penchant for Vision. (Seriously, Iron Man and Vision both killed off?!) As for X-men, loved the first wave, Apocalypse was a bad ass, top tier flick. But sadly they killed off Logan and currently the franchise is in a tough place. DC has been slowing gaining steam with the Wonder Woman series, Shazam, & Justice Leagues, but still trailing Marvel, IMO. Enter the Boys. Streaming on Amazon Prime. Just flipping the 'Superhero' concept 180 deg. I wont give away any real spoilers, but Superhero's that swear, kill civilians, are emotionally compromised, and constantly deceitful. YES PLEASE!!!! So many gasping moments! Also, the Comedy Deep provides is just unprecedented! Guy needs a win more than anyone. Any ways, I didn't really know what to expect heading into S2 after an adrenaline fueled, mind-blowing S1. Well, safe to say, I am now anticipating S3 even more than I did 2. If I had to pick a favorite episode so far, it would have to be S2Ep7. I think the '*****' tally was in the hundreds, had me laughing to tears a few times, mostly from disbelief. Crazy cast of characters, insane plot twists, and a Tarantino level of gore. Lots of boxes checked for any Superhero loving adult. Anyone else all caught up? Looking forward to S3?
