THE BOYS is an irreverent take on what happens when superheroes, who are as popular as celebrities, as influential as politicians and as revered as Gods, abuse their superpowers rather than use them for good. It's the powerless against the super powerful as The Boys embark on a heroic quest to expose the truth about "The Seven," and their formiddable Vought backing.

I love how Homelander getting impaled is actually the least important thing to happen in this scene
Right? I've seen this episode a few times (and this scene, in particular, a few more) and after I read the clip description, I thought, "Wait, I don't remember that happening." Though to be fair, I don't think "stabbed in the ear" is the 1st, 2nd, or 15th example that goes through our head when we hear that someone was "impaled"
Maeve exposing that Homelander is pretty vulnerable as well is a pretty big deal
@@therighteousboys446
Wonder if SB lighting up affected his durability in some way?
@@tnbn55 It's the only thing that could explain all of them being so ridiculously weak here.
@@therighteousboys446 nah man that’s just poor writing. The guy survived an explosion (in the anime prequel)… but he gets damaged from a piece of metal in his ear. That’s lazy writing. Btw why did he continue lasering on maeve on one point while she was defending herself. He could have easily attacked her legs/feet but instead (lazy writing) we got him remaining still.
So Starlight, even with all those lights maxed out and charging for a full ten seconds just knocked him over? God her character and powers are useless
Agreed they're dog shit
It is Soldier Boy. But I did find it hilarious that the moral quandary that Huey concluded with the decision to put his trust in his girlfriend to handle the fight for him, rather than taking the drug and fighting himself, ended with her completely and utterly failing. So much for girl power.
I feel like if The Deep and A Train got struck by that kind of light they would've been killed.
Shes garbage
@@blazegunsharkwell without her maybe maeve couldn’t beat storefront on her own
So... Homelanders weakness... "Discombobulate"
His weakness is strong women
I understood that Sherlock Holmes reference...lol
I would say Blindspot's more than Homelander.
I said it in the voice ngl
This now must register on an emotional level
That buildup was the equivalent of pointing to the stands with your bat where you're going to hit the homerun, and then laying down a bunt to get a single.
Like in the movie "Major League"?
thats the point. the good guys are always the underdogs in this show
😂😂😂😂😂😂
simpsons did it
It reminded me of that goofy group earth bending move in M night’s 2010 avatar movie 💀
Maeve gave 0 f***s, she just had to have that Jensen hug.
Can you blame her?
@@austinbridges518 Nope, even Homelander got a pencil in the eardrum just for trying to get ahead in-line.
@@austinbridges518Dang ya beat me to saying that XP
This is my favorite comment on yt
I need a hug 🫂 to 🥺😘💗
Love how the title is “Homelander Gets Impaled!” Instead of solder boy fucking blows up with queen maive or however tf you spell her name
Meave
@@AnthonyWilliams-bp5mn Maeve
both sound sussy
@@kitjones6896 What are you even talking about
@@kitjones6896 Yes and how does your comment have anything to do with that?
Starlights powers are stupid. One and done
Honestly tho, that did a whole lot of nothing
She's like if Dazzler was absolutely worthless.
@@frozenkiltDazzler IS worthless
She reminds me of Jubilee from X-Men... Her powers are just worthless.
@@RickMGPintoIn new series she got buffed hahaha
Starlight dramatically charging up into a flashbang sends me every time
Starlight with an upgraded suit that absorbs and maintains electricity even after use, as a super-fast recharge cycle would be an upgrade for her
Captain Capacitor!
In the comics she was much stronger and could fly. I imagine this is her realizing more of her potential.
@@BobRoberts-cw4hmCaptain Farad
@@Mittens_GamingShe probably will be able to fly by the end of the show as Homelander will either be dead or depowered and the Seven and Vought beyond done. But there will still be Supes or what remains of them, and she might end up taking the role that Homelander has as the face of America while Ryan grows up and becomes what Homelander never achieved. That is if both of them do not get killed because the series is wild and it takes risks often.
Ryan effectively going into the path to become the actual NotSuperman of his universe but not in the way Stormfront wanted seems like a fitting conclusion to this entire debacle.
Too expensive, how an honest business manager supposed to profit if he had to spend millions on each product packaging that is not appealing sexually.
They went full MCU with this ending. Even had Maeve survive that.
That's not MCU; it's just comic books in general.
The rules are:
1. Unless you literally SEE the person die, they're not dead.
2. Even if you literally SEE the person die, they're not dead... _especially_ if they have franchise value.
@@justingries dude…comics obliterate and kill their characters all the time. Sometimes they stay dead for real life decades. This show is just afraid to kill any of their diversity characters including women especially the lesbian women.
@@zzodysseuszz”sometimes they stay dead” meaning most don’t 🤷🏻♂️
@@zzodysseuszz it's really ironic given the amount of self-awareness and callout this show does to Hollywood.
@@redhead9713 Or.... they want to keep as much of ALL the main characters alive because it takes a shit ton of time to build up characters like that. What the fuck even is this comment, there's like no female main characters that get this treatment in The Boys compared to male. Homelander should've died multiple times, Butcher should've, Hughie definitely should've, etc... shit how stupid would you have to be as a director to kill your MAIN protagonists every fucking season lol
Hasn't everyone noticed how Maeve comes through for everyone in the end? I hope to see her again in the next season.
She should have died from the fall. She would have been depowered from the Soldier boy blast, and it was already implied she can't survive long falls (homelander needed to carry her off the plane). Her surviving was purely fanservice.
@@armoredducka plane CRASHING is different from someone FALLING, besides that, Homelander always underestimated Maeve, she underestimated herself as well.
@@seekeroftruth9454anybody would die from that fall powerless and she was powerless
@armoredduck No matter how you see it, Maeve ranks 2nd, just after HOMELANDER, and she's a good physical match for him. She is very stealthy. The series didn't get to explore her well.
@@arohizuchukwu1307 Bro we get it... you don't have to ride the fictional character that hard.
Anyone else notice starlight never does anything??? Like ever? Just light up
Yeah, Marvel has one of those as well: Dazzler. Essentially the same schtick; 100% the same uselessness.
@@justingries DC has Black Lightning, has his moments but is quite weak and often does minimal damage
That's the whole point she's supposed to be weak
Makes absolute 0 fucking sense that maeve survived a nuke that she was clinged to
I’d say closer to a bunker buster, also, the plot armor is think with her.
I don't know, she's clearly the 3rd strongest character in this show. I mean, homelander had nukes dropped on him as a baby and it did nothing to him, it wouldn't be far fetched to believe there's another supe that can survive a nuke. I mean, soldier boy wasn't genetically engineered like homelander and yet he can also survive the nuke that is himself, so I don't think it's unbelievable that another supe can aswell. I think this goes to show how strong maeve actually is, and it makes sense that homelander wanted her eggs for children as he clearly thinks she's the strongest female on the planet.
@@VheoneIt's multilayered.
Homelander actually wanted to have kids with her because there's no equal female to him. Maeve is the closest to an equal and thus the best candidate.
Because she's a lesbian, a progressive and generally left all-together and it would be a sort of ideological victory if she could not stop him from giving him offspring, Effectively eliminating the lesbian out of her with his charms. That failed, so he immediately went for the eggs plan, And it's not Homelander being far right, but rather Homelander himself proving he's beyond ideology regardless of side because he sees himself as divine and thus above human matters. What he wants is done, there's no sort of NO against his wishes.
Because Maeve is the girl he has known for the longest time and he literally has no other girl that he can talk to, so he's actually possessive about her because he literally has no other possible romantic prospects. Reminder that Homelander actually let Maeve insult him, showing that he's confident enough to show a little, just a little, weakness in her presence, heck, he went as far as trying to hide the injuries from the SB fight to not look weaker in front of her because if he lost Maeve's respect and then her, he also loses any sort of somewhat legitimate female interaction. And he tried to stop that from happening by practically kidnapping her. Which only caused the opposite to happen.
Because he tried to replace his intentions with Maeve not wanting to give in to his wishes with Stormfront and she was out for the count, so he was desperate for a replacement FOR HER REPLACEMENT, so he went back to Maeve trying to deny the obvious reality that she now will definitely never pardon him. Cue him getting more insistent about the whole matter all through S3.
Because Homelander is in a desperate spot for personal validation from his inner and outer circle, he lost his family so he was in dire need to make a new baby to have a new family.
By the time S3 ends, Homelander has found such validation in having Ryan around him. But he has practically lost everything else and just rules with fear, so he's going paranoid and even more unstable.
No women, no love.
No friends.
No best friend.
Lost already a ton of respect from a lot of people.
Was hurt physically several times by 'inferior" beings.
Vought is slowly crumbling apart.
Heck, if S4 actually touches the actual Homelander breakdown then he most likely will try to overtake the U.S. and the world through Supe revolution because if Vought and thus him are going under, then he effectively loses the rest of the world save for his followers. And thus will make this last ditch attempt to force them to love him or die.
It's always been about affection, if Homelander has no genuine affection from someone, he folds. Thus why Stillwell was his caretaker.
Now he barely has any legitimate affection left from anyone save for the people who worship him for being God-like and not because he's Homelander. Thus he's finally reaching an irreversible breaking point.
Maeve should not have survived this. She lost her powers on the way down.
wink wink strong WOMEN
@@dsa3017 wink wink bitter incel
Superhero logic
Ikr? I would have been fine with her dying off this season, her arch kinda felt concluded anyways
She shouldn’t have survived Homelander to begin with
its crazy how it looks like that hit hurt starlight more than soldier boy 🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣 all that buildup for literally nothing lmfao
The plan would literally have been perfect had Ryan not gotten involved and Butcher stepping up to be "responsible" at the worst possible moment. We were SO CLOSE but the rest of the series needs to happen so there's that.
They did Starlight so dirty. Have her essentially go super saiyan with her powers only to result in a minor knockdown.
So he can’t be shot, but a metal rod can go into his head? Their powers just come and go as the story needs them to.
Well, through his ear.
Lol
homelander while impervious, he's not 100% invulnerable. and a normal human even if allowed to jab homelander in the ear with a metal, probably would NOT have the strenght(effect value/EV) to overcome homelander's "skin armor" a.k.a. Resistance Value(RV), HOWEVER, maeve has a serious effect value(EV) with her super strength PLUS she was in melee attack distance PLUS she probaly pushed her powers. Its reasonable to conclud that the metal rod could pentrate the skin armor and not use the metal rod but rather the attacker's strength.
Find a TTRPG called "DC HEROS" now known as "Blood of Heros". The Games mechanics and system allows for some seriously fun game play in the super powered universes.
@@alexxander7289 the metal rod should of broke. His skin is more dense then that steel rod
It wasn't even skin. It was an ear drum. @@firemaker11096
Why doesn’t the intense light from his charge up also charge Starlight 🤣
I had to go read about it. She converts electricity into her light beam. SB emits radiation.
@@rnash999 so she’s like a worst version of Cole Magraph from infamous
I just wish starlight full power will be something more impressive like homelander-like strength or agility. Most of the time her power is useless. I think the screen writer hate her 😢
She was a joke in the comics. All the supes were a joke. Homelander was the only one that was strong and useful. And his clone, an insane clone made specifically to kill him, which went crazy and tried to sabotage him to torture him cuz he came out a complete psycho, including fking with butcher and doing his wife. Maeve was decapitated with one punch.
They made homelander too whiny and weak, while promoting dumb girl power bs. In turn ruining stormfront as well. The tv show is better than the comics but it's has way more bad parts. The comics were just gratuitous violence and fked up stuff for the sake of it. The tv show is all about showing dicks cuz it's made by gaya and girl power bs cuz the producers made it a rule cuz of ESG
Cause she's a mid character lol, and it's fucking homelander and soldier boy. Can't compete with the strongest
you do realize who wrote the boys right?
I mean this is Solider Boy... it is implied at full strength he is stronger than Homelander.
@@briankirkland2118 no he is not. He can go toe to toe for a minute or 2 thanks to his superpowers draining ability, which works even when it's "not active", because it's driven by his emotions and it's always active but gets much stronger when he is pissed off or wants to use it (it's some kind of radiation he emits. That's why the Geiger counter shows him emitting radiation even while he is calm and just sitting, eating, from a few meters away and kicks off a lot stronger when he starts getting worked up).
Even with that power, he ain't no match. Homelander is MUCH stronger, has laser vision and can fly. They literally engineered him with soldier boy powers+lasers and flight, but stronger. He is the culmination of various attempts to get the strongest supe after many attempts.
Soldier boy wouldn't even last a minute, in his prime with just his super strength and resilience.
It took 3 of them, with soldier boy, butcher and Hughie just to hold homelander down for a few seconds and it wasn't enough. And they even managed to get to that point ONLY because they caught him by surprise MULTIPLE TIMES. From butcher having powers to Hughie appearing out of nowhere naked and with powers.
The only thing they had on Homelander was his ego and need to feel loved and his psychological issues from being an engineered baby that grew up in a lab as he was tested on, from hot and cold environments, to poison, to tanks shooting him, to exploding nukes on him.
I don't think soldier boy would survive a nuke.
blows homelander back multiple feet with a double hammerfist and yet cant do the same thing to SB and knock him out the window ..........
Bear in mind Homelander flies, he likely doesn't even maintain balance like a normal person would.
She had to lift and throw Soldier Boy and fast, so a shoulder charge was easiest. If you go for a drop kick and miss, everyone gets wiped out. If you go for a throw you can miss. Shoulder charge just "works". Also if she lets him go in the air she may avoid the blast entirely - but she didn't have time to think about it, nobody else could go near him.
He leans backwards from it. He barely even stumble backwards. It was just meant to stun him for a few seconds.
@@BigMac8000 that brings up a good point. Homelander is likely hovering most of the time or atleast reducing his weight with his abilities. He should be super easy to push around if caught off guard.
In my opinion if they really wanted to give Starlight a star moment where she shows the extent of her powers, or like an OP temporary powerup, they should have had her produce a beam strong enough to deflect or even neutralize Soldierboys body cannon. Imagine both of them powering up at the same time and their beams combat eachother and through incredible effort Starlight overcomes his beam temporarily stunning him but nearly knocking her out because she not used to that much power. That would've satisfied me
Starlights charge up made me think she would disintegrate soldier boy, but nah she just gave him a little push
“We tried nuking him. We tried everything.”
Maeve: did you try piping his ear?
So stupid lol😊
You’re the stupid one for not realizing that one of the world’s strongest supes shoved that into his ear. According to your logic, no supe should damage Homelander because strength plays no importance in your scenario
Dude turns into a human miniature nuke. That’s fricken sick lol
Who else was waiting for him to get completely vaporised, then got disappointed
He’s way to fucking strong for that shit
They could have make his clothes get burned or evaporate or something.
All of that from starlight, just for him to get up in almost exactly 5 seconds 💀
“Maybe this is a clip from season 4!”
“Nope. Goddamn misleading but technically accurate video titles!”
Man they do find every conceivable way to make her seem week whenever fighting anybody with powers
Stupid plot hole = I know that Starlight is stronger than normal people even if they can't match Maeve. They had ample time and combined strength to push/kick him off the building. Maeve did not need to tackle him like that.
The fact that solder boy still survived that without a single scratch is insane bros a power house if they some out give bro the power of flight he’d be literally unstoppable
Maeve really had her redeeming arc set up. And I love it.
Homelander: Do it again...
2:22 "someones gotta sacrifice themself here can you do it i dont wanna"
3:20 🤔 that song strangely sounds like dr.-dre's BAD INTENTIONS
To everyone saying that Maeve shouldn’t have been able to impale him.
In the comics she swung a replica sword that still left a big scar over his eye.
This short clip highlights some moments why last episode of S3 was bad not including the pointless story twist earlier on.
Starlight charging for one minute (while SB watched it) and it doing no damage anyways / hilarious looking double punch: 2:31 after she stood seemingly 1 minute next to HL and not finishing him off immediately / Maeve surviving the crash after losing her powers (thanks to SB's blast) /etc
Starlight saying “no you’ll kill everyone” right after they said they were gonna kill him pisses me off
They need to give starlight a suit made with solar panels lol
1:09 If starlight focused on BEAMS instead of a repulsor-field, this would have been over. Legit there was force, but his armor wasn’t burning, no walls collapsed, the floor didn’t crack and split. I’m saying that the resulting force does not match the supposed power she was being “charged” with and the destructive power resulted in little more than a heavy shove to her surrounding area. If it was focused into a beam he would have been cut in half and seared shut all in an instant.
Starlight is the Jubilee of The Boys universe
Dazzler
Soilder boy never switched up unlike everyone else
Can we all agree the whole Starlight thing was ridiculous ? When I watched this first time I was really excited and actually thought we were going to uncover a whole new aspect/scope for her powers, ended up being nothing more than a pathetic kick.
Honestly this scene directly ties into what happens in the finale and nothing can change my mind
Lynn I’ve pierced my head on a spiiike
loling so hard at homelander with a straw sticking out of the side of his head x'D
and even harder at his confused expression after the fact
what an insane finale to this season, the crossover fight everyone wanted and a massive explosive to top it off lmao
This is just as crazy as real life. Just add super powers.
When you use "impaled" in an exaggerated way, he simply got stabbed
Homelander got hurt by a piece of metal. Are you serious? 😂
Maybe his ear drums aren't as tough
@@CalmoOmlac still doesn’t make sense. If ear drums can’t withstand a piece of metal than they shouldn’t be able to withstand an explosion too. This is so stùpid. In the comics he punched her head off… because he is unnaturally strong for a supe. In the show it’s the same but he somewhat gets damaged by a piece of metal.
@@lorenzozinco9664 I would still say there's a difference between a shockwave and a pointy piece of metal rammed in your ear by a supe. But there are always inconsistencies in shows. Also they often enough change things in shows or movies even if they're based on comics.
Dude, don't justify bad writing @@CalmoOmlac
Don't tell me what to do@@brocKain Also i didn't justify anything. But it is what it is.
That was so patheticly funny, that ittybitty little push that Starlight did... 🤣
Queen Maeve remembering what a true hero is! So sad she didn't live to start over in a straight path
This is the scene that gave me the opinion of maeve > everyone, even homelander, she a year trained while the supes never trained, shes the only one to make homelander bleed or peirce him with a peice of metal, making him disoriented for a couple seconds, shes strong enough to peirce him, with the right equipment she could've killed homelander by herself
Still Soldierboy's atomic bonk ability is awesome
imagine if soldier boys big boom didnt take so long to charge up
Maeve is soldier boys kid. She survived at close range.
Just q knockdown is CRAZY
How exactly does he just do all of that and not even a building collapses
All that power to knock soldier boy about 10 foot back , that's it lol
I love how everyone completely missed the point of Starlight's powers...
Her power is "being gorgeous". That's why she's on the show. She's smoking hot in the outfit. That's it. She has to have "some kind of power" to be a Supe but she's there to be eye candy...
it's not really hard to figure out, ffs
what season is this
Before: 'We just haven't seen Starlight when she's at full power yet.'
After: '...oh...'
This was like that goofy group earth bending move in M night’s 2010 avatar movie 💀
Not the kind of “impaled” you’d expect when you hear the word
Starlight is a garden ordainment
So a pen can impale his ear drum?
Everyone wants to hug Dean!
People complaining about the power disparities in this scene...
The point wasn't to make Starlight weak, it's that Soldier Boy is nearly unkillable.
Also, Maeve isn't overpowered here, it's that her super resilience didn't wear off instantly.
For better effect they should have shown Soldier Boy more burnt up, and Maeve should have kicked away from him while falling to get some distance between them.
2:45 "THEY JUST HIT THE SECOND TOWER"
What makes me laugh the most is that Starlight absorbed all the energy from this mess with a huge number of lamps, displays and other power sources, and the only thing she managed to do was levitate for a moment and just throw Soldier Boy away. She didn't hurt him in any way, other than leaving him temporarily stunned. Starlight is truly one of the weakest supes.
It’s not that she’s weak. A single blast kills a normal human. Soldier Boy is incredibly strong and durable. He is indestructible. Butchers vision hardly scratched him
I wonder if Starlight's skills are intentionally so lame or not. Charging, levitating, epic music, 10 seconds of epicness for....nothing.
He can't see through zinc but perhaps also maybe a slight weakness?
Did all that charging up for nothing.
Homelander got a little karma back for what he did to Blind Spot. Hes is probably deaf in that ear now.
So her power at it's highest level is enough to knock a guy back a couple of feet on to the ground.
she had all that power and all she did was a shock wave!>?!?!?!!??!
If homelander can be impaled with a pencil, how can he beat superman?
Such an explosion and yet 2 planes brought down 3 buildings?!?!?
The starlight build up still makes me mad, all that time building suspense on her power up just for it to be a light force push
I’m just saying it looks like Starlight is getting more powerful but absorbing the energy from the lights around her, why doesn’t she just do this constantly but with the sun? Like REALISTICALLY that’s what she could do to always be this powerful right?
Elle absorbe " l'électricité " pour la convertir en lumière. Et de toute façon, si elle pouvait le faire avec le soleil, elle aurait le même problème la nuit.😅
It was in this moment he knew she was a waste of time 😂
I see what you did there Sir, well played
@@6LVRDRGN she's just arguably one, if not the most useless hero's. Hopefully they fix it next season, if not then she needs to just go.
What did she actually do to help anybody? 🤣
There's dudes without superpowers doing more.
This fight was such a mess, it could've been amazing. Like the earlier 3 v Homelander
Bruh maeve could've let go and like kicked him away why did she hold on 💀
Wait there’s a new season out??
Season 3 released a while ago
I though his skin is impenetrable - how is he even bleeding from this?
Crazy cause Stillwell in season 1 said that they threw a nuke at homelander & it did absolutely nothing but here he getting stabbed with a bic pen & bleeding
I feel like Maeve could have just THROWN him out of the building.
STRONG woman ........
MM calling Soldier Boy racist was cringe
So Starlight's power is as useful as a Galaxy Note 7?
A part were soldier boy escapes again in season 4
Maeve might have survived that, she could have pushed off him, notice they zoomed back.
Nukes don’t hurt homelander but a metal pipe just on the fucking ground pierces his skin. Wtf was that shit made of
His paper thin eardrum was barely pierced by Maeve ramming in a spike with all her strength.
Starlight is TenTEn of this show
If Maeve was de-powered by Soldier Boy's blast, how did she survive the fall?
The ear? ....Vlad the Impaler is NOT impressed. John Wick might be... But not Vlad.
This fight ruined the season. Naeve could do anything to homelands before so y can she now, also she stabs him🤦♂️ literally should have done nothing. This whole scene should have been a homelander glaze to show how he’s an unstoppable force to set up the story. P.S. I liked when homelander had a busted a lip and bruises when he 1v3 solider boy, Huwie and Billy, that was perfect story telling.
Is this from newest season? I assume Soldier Boy dies.
Soldier Boy and Homelander are just dawgs bro 🤷🏻♂️
All that just for the most expensive knockback?
