it's not the "fukkery", I'm not a fan of Ennis' frat boy style of humor.

It's why you'll see me praise Preacher, Hitman, Hellblazer and his second Punisher run

but see me flat out dismiss The Boys, his Authority stuff, and his first Punisher run that everybody loves so much

The Boys is basically a jocks vs. rebels story. :manny:

It's not the story, or the setting, or the pacing, or the art, or the ending. I've read it.

Ennis is a great writer.

But he's also the type of writer who thinks putting his nuts on another man's face while he sleeps is the funniest shyt ever.

i understand. the boys has things that are just dikkish for no reason, like the black g teams, and superduper. although superduper serves a purpose, i would be fine with neither of these making it into the series.

:mjlol:@ people who haven’t read the comics and are tripping out about how graphic this is. The comics is far far far more worst,
little kids getting sodimised only for the homelander to comment about how he can still see blood on the hero priest raping little boys.

Show is great though, it’s understandable why they didn’t get Simon Pegg to play Huey at this point in time as he is meant to be Naive to the ways of the world.

I don't usually ask for more episodes in a season of these streaming shows but The Boys really could have used an extra two eps to get to a full 10 episode season.
At 8 episodes it just felt very rushed and truncated.

st0rmfr0nt is the genetic basis for two of the characters. im guessing that and being an hardcore racist are the two things they plan on keeping for the character
so how will the cuck'd plot work if now SF is woman? will SF get fuk now or will it be queen maeve

Why is queen maeve not blonde bombshell
