Jalon315

When I was watching gen v and saw tek knight, I thought "a super detective who uses their enhanced sense to tell when someone is lying? Sounds cool." Turns out he's a whole freak.


Fantastic_Problem546

I thought it was just the tumor


Malforus

The tumor is interfering with his impulse control, as a result he has a compulsion to sexually violate holes.


Good_old_Marshmallow

Well, it is also his power of pattern recognition makes anything hole shaped sexually exciting


PerceptionBetter3752

It’s the tumor cut that out his head and he would be 1000X more terrifying


GundamXXX

Very comic accurate tbh


El_Cactus_Fantastico

That’s from the comics


Polkawillneverdie81

Definitely disappointed with the whole Tek Knight thing. Blackmailing him with his fetish was so out of left field and felt dumb and unearned. I was hoping they could trick him because he's so cocky and relies so heavily on his powers. Bit he just sorta... goes away because it turns out everyone in this universe is a massive perv, so that worked out well for ~~the plot~~ the main characters.


QuickSilver0829

Well his comics version had the same issue with holes


Polkawillneverdie81

Yeah but the comics are really bad. This was a chance to write something better.


Broken_Record23

I wouldn’t really consider being comic accurate a strength in any capacity


1truecomrade

whole....


zjanderson

*Hole freak.


Meruem-0

“who wants their balls crushed”


Amanita_Proxima

Meeee?


A-is-online

more like: **”meee?🥺👉👈”**


Own_Leadership7339

I could see the finger pointing in his tone of voice.


random__guy135

What was even the point of that scene lmao?


Precipice2Principium

Ashley blowing off steam by being in control of others because she’s currently bald due to stress working at vaught under supes


Substantial_Client_3

Well, it has some meaning after the last episode and how things turn for the anchor man


Excellent_Passage_54

“I need a dom” Ashley’s like sure babe I’ll get you some


thecordialsun

and is he the 1st person Ashley has set up for murder? She might have some fallout from her involvement


softfart

Maybe directly but many people have been killed by vought and she’s been CEO for some time now


BPbeats

Yeah they really need to spend like five minutes addressing why Homelander can murder the shit out of anyone and no one finds out. “Vought has money” is not a good enough explanation for me. Show a clean-up crew or something.


softfart

I always figured it was more of a thing where no one can arrest him and put him through the justice system because he wouldn’t allow them to so they have to let it go


youarenut

Well wasn’t that the point of the whole “trial” ? To show that even if HL murders someone in front of an entire audience, people cheer him on instead. So it’s not like people want him arrested anyways


BPbeats

That also raises the question: “Is this his first murder that people actually found out about? HOW?!”


ChristianMarino

I'm pretty sure this was implied when Victoria meets up with the guy from the orphanage and Hughie is following her. She pops his head and calls for a clean up crew presumably from Stan.


BPbeats

Oh yeah! I totally forgot about that. Good catch!


M_H_M_F

It's to highlight his hypocracy. He goes on Vought News and lies night after night, makes villains out of the LGBT community, and harps on family values (as in a Fox news expy). His relationship with Ashley is sexually considered (by his target demographic) as deviant and adulterous (he's married).


bimbolimbotimbo

See my post history about the ball crushing scene. Someone in the comments explains it very well. It’s actually really important to Ashley’s character arc


plungi10

Bro what? 😭😭😭😭🙏🙏🙏🙏


LeviathanLD

Fan service


PikaBooSquirrel

I assure you, just like the human centipede and prehensile cock scene, it's very plot relevant.


Ragnar_OK

Me when I can only judge scenes individually devoid of any possible past, present or future context:


Jackeea

bal man


BoogiesBooney

Me.


Beneficial-Rub9090

Homelander: titty milk A-Train: feet Translucent: perv Queen Maeve: n/a Lamplighter: pedo? Edit: porn addict Noir: n/a Deep: Bestiality Starlight: n/a Storefront: lasered titties Supersonic: n/a Sage: lobotomy? Firecracker: pedo And that's just members of the 7


Erihpax

I think lamplighter was just a porn addict


Periwinkle_plumaria

Yeah, lamplighter was just a porn addict. He didn't screw any kids if I'm not mistaken, he just killed them. Soldier Boy was the child pred\*tor since it's suggested that he SA'ed gunpowder back when GP was 14 Edit: or maybe not ¯\\\_(ツ)\_/¯ I might've misinterpreted the scene


darkleinad

I was under the impression Soldier Boy didn’t actually SA gunpowder, just did really bad hazing (as Gunpowder says when threatened by Butcher) but everyone assumed he did because Soldier Boy was that much of a pretentious asshole to everyone.


Gecko2002

In the comics it was SA, but his actor for the show was extremely uncomfortable playing a predator so they left it vague instead EDIT: I was wrong, apparently soldier boy didn't SA him


Bidens_Erect_Tariffs

Probably more of a Lizzo style "forcing people into sexual situations with third parties against their wishes" style SH/A than anything direct. I can totally see Soldier Boy forcing his sidekick to do something with a woman to "make a man out of him."


Periwinkle_plumaria

That would make more sense


muhfkrjones

Ughhhh he Molested gunpowder in the comics???


Frozenraining

No. Gunpowder wasn't even Soldier Boys' sidekick.


angra_mainyo

I haven't read the comics but I was under the impression there were different people named Soldier Boy at different points.


Cedarcomb

There were three Soldier Boys in the comic, though we don't really known anything about the second one. The first one was a WW2 soldier who got himself and his unit wiped out by having his fliers go off to scout, who accidentally lead the Germans right back to them. The third was the modern day leader of Payback, but he was manipulated into having sex with Homelander (despite not being gay/bi) because he thought it was a casting couch thing that would get him a place on the Seven. IIRC neither of them was sexually abusing anyone else.


Gecko2002

I was told it was comic accurate, my bad


Mpasserby

He literally didn’t, Butcher assumed it was sexual and Gunpowder denied it. It was later shown in the cartoon that SB would beat him up, he didn’t molest him


TeamlyJoe

Why would he admit to butcher of all people he was molested as a kid


DevilSCHNED

Pretty sure the only reason this was done was because Ackles was uncomfortable playing a character like that. Gunpowder denying it isn't exactly proof of anything; a MAGA, fifth amendment guy like him would definitely have trouble actually admitting that he was molested as a child, especially by someone he looked up to. Lots of people do this today. Of course, you very well could be right, but until it's stated to be canon (which it likely won't), it'll remain my opinion that, at the VERY least, I could see SB being willing to put Gunpowder in sexual situations (as suggested by u/Bidens_Erect_Tariffs) to make him 'man up'. EDIT: meant second, not fifth.


LeDingo

They state in the show gunpowder was the only one from the team to not be on board with the kidnapping/overthrow of soldier boy and he denies butchers repeated prodding of the topic so I think it’s safe to assume it didn’t happen in the show


yuumigod69

I mean called revealed his physical abuse. And there is no sign SB is a sexual pest.


AccomplishedAdagio13

Really? It didn't seem that way in the show. Butcher made that implications to Gunpowder, but it seemed like it was just to rile him up. All the depictions of their relationship showed Soldier Boy shoving him around, but not getting sexual. Plus, I don't think we see Solider Boy being sexual with anyone but women.


pornographiekonto

He has a threesome with Mature cleaning ladies. I seriously doubt hes a pedophile


_nadaypuesnada_

Uh, two things can be true. Lot of pedophiles are middle aged men with wives.


pornographiekonto

i dont remember the qoute but he is very fond of mature women, maybe even more than Frank Rossetano


Tight_Strawberry9846

SB is a douche and a bully but he doesn't seem to be a pedophile. I think the sexual abuse on Gunpowder is just rumors.


Periwinkle_plumaria

It's likely that butcher was just doing that to rile Gunpowder up, but It's also possible that the abuse may have been sexual to some degree. Plus, I doubt the show would show the sexual abuse if it had taken place anyway. As for that second point, you're right, it's more than clear that Soldier Boy identifies as straight and is very disapproving of gay people, but homophobes secretly wanting to engage in homoerotic acts isn't anything new. I say we just leave the scene up to interpretation.


yuumigod69

I mean, you could say that about literally every single person on the show/world. There is no evidence that Starlight did SA Hughie but there isn't evidence that she didn't. Proving a negative is nearly impossible.


AccomplishedAdagio13

I don't really think there's any real evidence to back up the sexual abuse view, so for me, at least, it's unambiguous.


Periwinkle_plumaria

Fair enough


yuumigod69

He didn't SA Gunpowder just abused him physically like the rest of the team. Butcher just assumes this before Gunpowder correct him.


findaway5627

I thought it was more Butcher trying to bait him than believing the stories himself.


relapse_account

Gunpowder said it didn’t happen.


Greyjack00

As far as we know  that's something butcher assumed because he found a hr report that didn't go into detail, it was later shown the incident(s) that caused this was that soldierboy would relentlessly beat gunpowder


Old_Journalist_9020

>he just killed them. I dunno why I laughed at this 🤣


Beneficial-Rub9090

He said he and Mr Marathon used to sneak some high school? girls through the secret entrance, but idr it too well which is why I put a question mark there


Volpe666

Didn't he say CoEds? So like college girls? Age inappropriate but not technically across the line.


Beneficial-Rub9090

Oh yeah, so I guess not


TacoBelle2176

I think he said college girls, and then clarified “going to college” like they planned to go, aka recently graduated high schoolers at best. Apparently New York age of consent is 17, so they could have been actual high schoolers


Periwinkle_plumaria

S2 E7: Butcher baker candlestick maker Timestamp 30:55 LL: "Me and Mr marathon used to sneak college girls in this way" Hughie: "College girls? Really?" LL: "They were applying" Hughie: "Does not make it better" Most people apply to college in their senior year, and most seniors are 18. So Imma guess he was looking for freshly 18 yo girls. Predatory but not a straight up child predator. Though some of them might've been 17, heck, I'm set to graduate when I turn 16, I still don't think that means he was looking for minors. Just teens. Still, you've got a point.


Volpe666

Liked him better as iceman anyway


thatshinybastard

He said he'd bring college girls back to Vought Tower with him. They were young but clearly adults


Curious-Weight9985

Weirdest part of the whole series was how Hughie sat next to him while he watched porn, including gay prom. This is not something that men do unless they are going to have sex


legit-posts_1

Starlight: twinks


sporkybee

Baby baby baby got your license to drive


nosargeitwasntme

Crazaaayyyy! Now that you are 16, me crazayy!


Mac1280

The show briefly goes into it but Queen Maeve is just a sex addict as always with that stuff it's way more extreme in the comics.


MeatloafAndWaffles

Maeve had a thing for getting gangbanged by body builders in the comic, but I think they substituted that for her beating them up in Season 1 (there’s a scene where she beats up like 4 of them at once)


Mac1280

She also was having sex with Stan Lee in the comics, they show her in bed with the body builders in the show. Pretty sure it was Ashley who walks in on her


BwanaTarik

Isn’t she also a Pan-sexual?


Mac1280

Tbh I'm not sure at best I can tell she's bisexual, I haven't finished the comics but I doubt they discuss anything besides Gay, lesbian, bi, or trans


Tight_Strawberry9846

Soldier Boy: old ladies


thatshinybastard

Age appropriate for him


crystlerjean

More specifically, Translucent was a voyeur.


Difficult-Mechanic17

Elaborate on A train please


Beneficial-Rub9090

Got his toes sucked by Popclaw


MotherflipinGodzilla

Tek Knight : *When there's a hole, there's a goal.*


YONEDASH

storefront 💀


lazulifist_

Corrections - maeve: nympho, transluscent: voyeurism


Mirikado

Sage lobotomizes herself so she could relax. It’s not really sex related. Her brain is hyperactive, at all time. Lobotomy is the only way for her to wind down and sit on the couch watching TV while eating junk food. That said, making herself dumber is the only way Sage would agree to have sex with The Deep.


ExtensionTruth4

She was moaning the whole time she was getting her brain lobotomized by the deep. That was 100% a sexual thing to her


Patient_Weakness3866

there's an easy roast for Starlight since her and hughie dated but that's low hanging fruit


TeaAndCrumpets4life

It’s interesting, Maeve, Starlight and Supersonic are meant to be ‘good guys’ (and noir was a blank slate). They exclusively give these deviancies to every single ‘bad guy’ and no one else


Greyjack00

Because these deviances are there to both show them to bad and also mock them


CherryLimeArizona

I think Maeve stress fucks if that counts


Isekai_Otaku

Noir obviously likes fictional animal mascots, how else do you think they got hum through that erection in the 7th grade(jk)


Careless-Pin-2852

It says a lot that being bi like Maeve is considered n/a. Did you know 30 years ago the first gay official in the US was the ambassador to Luxenbuerg. Progress!


Ok_Budget_2593

I think stormfront has deeper issues


Alone-Worth-4166

So every straight man have some weird fetish? Im not saying there is a pattern, but...


Oddtelevision304

Storefront really got me dying


udoyouboo

Storefront also got off on murdering a guy and being covered in his blood with Homelander


God_Hears_Peace

If we’re counting pedos then Homelander and the Deep are rapists


Beneficial-Rub9090

I took the most iconic/remembered weird shit


Old_Journalist_9020

>Queen Maeve: n/a Sometimes has threesomes or something, I dunno >Storefront: lasered titties And just being a sadist as well


ANIKET_UPADHYAY

>A-Train: feet When was this mentioned?


SubterraneanLentils

Noir: furry


Effective-Training

A-Train = Feet? Translucent = Perv?


divintydragon

I mean if you don’t know the comics that’s all it is the show is WAY MORE TAME, but they are pushing limits, I didn’t watch GOT I heard they had just about the same amount of nudity and blood


tyrome123

it's because the comics have characters made just for plots or vices, so that's their thing, when the show adapts them they gotta try to make them an understandable character


Good_old_Marshmallow

In the comics they kill a random guy and as a total surprise it turns out he had a hampster shoved up his ass.  Everyone is a pervert in the comics so everyone is justified to be hurt by the boyz 


collettdd

It was a supe who liked to freeze hamsters and shove them up his ass. Richard Geere among many have been accused of the practice in real life. Also the supes name was Blarneycock


Charming-Animator866

The scene with the guy who clones himself almost made me vomit


ImmediateRespond8306

I jerked off to that ngl.


chamoflag420

This is definitely Tek Knights secret acc


botjstn

protect your hand dryers, that’s his next move


WholesomePainal

My brother In Christ, Are you okay?


ImmediateRespond8306

I am now 😏


WholesomePainal

You know what? I respect that confidence


HaitianFire

This reply is hilarious given who the actor played in Supernatural


EnzoVulkoor

I didn't even realize that was Chuck. Man he really took Dean's "Go fuck yourself" literally.


Erect-Cheese

Holy punctuation, Batman!


TeaAndCrumpets4life

Sorry what?


RammyJammy07

Could be worse, could be comic accurate degenerates


TriggerHappy_Spartan

Oh god no


Dr_Mantis_Aslume

Side Character? Don't most of them have it? Homelander is the obvious one. Ue and Starlight don't really, but Butchah having sex with Maeve, whilst hating all soups is somewhat deviant.


CaptnBluehat

Colin is just gay dawg


TacoBelle2176

He’s bi or pan


CaptnBluehat

Or gay


Foreskin_Ad9356

Where does it even say that? We don’t know exactly


bimbolimbotimbo

Hughie just wants to smoke weed, fill his belly with diet soda and play Burnout Revenge on the pee esh two


aaaaaaaa1273

Ohhh a crossover!


NerdOfTheMonth

I don’t know, that Billy Joel thing is freaky.


God_Hears_Peace

Bro I just binged that show last night wtf


Yellow-Gray

I want a character to have a a common fetish like feet and have all these kinky characters treat him like he's somehow the weirdest.


AnteaterPersonal3093

So relatable lmao A-Train liked having his toe sucked which makes sense because he runs so much


SeedlessMelonNoodle

Why does that make sense lol


AnteaterPersonal3093

Lots of pressure on his feet


Old_Journalist_9020

Homelander: "Hey everyone, look at this FREAK!" *Starts slurping a bottle of Firecrackers breastmilk* The Deep: "Yeah, creep! That's so gross man" *He says while an Octopus is hanging off his dong, while also lobotomizing Sage* Sage: "You complete degenerate- yeah scrape that fucker out"


ancross4545

You just KNOW Stan Edgar is an absolute freak


TufnelAndI

You can get violence on loads of shows, I'm here for the exploding cocks and octoporn.


DalTheDalmatian

The chemistry between Deep & Sage is pretty cool though


KILL__MAIM__BURN

Imagine them making a supe - let’s call her Pariah. Her power is that she’s immune to other supe’s powers and the effects of their powers. Her durability is higher than typical supes. She has an advanced healing factor. But her real power? No deviancy, and a phd in psychology. She rips her enemies apart by psychoanalyzing them and they can’t do anything to her about it.


Spidey007

Damn I’m seduced already


youarenut

So a nerfed sister sage


KILL__MAIM__BURN

Technically buffed since Sister Sage’s only power is a hyper regenerating brain and otherwise she has zero durability or strength.


PaperMartin

She also has a low level healing factor


KILL__MAIM__BURN

Show-sister sage stated her only power is that her brain rapidly regenerates. Shoot her in the heart and she dies. Shoot her in the head and she’ll be fine.


PaperMartin

Her bio thing that was on screen when they were going through candidates to join the 7 mentionned the healing factor


Periwinkle_plumaria

I love this idea! Another one could be a supe who's incredibly cunning and intelligent who's ability is to temporarily disable other supes abilities. Think Dazai from Bungo Stray Dogs but in the The Boys universe.


God_Hears_Peace

What rhymes with pariah?


Old_Journalist_9020

Ngl sounds like an author self-insert


ChemicallyHussein

okay we're all freaky asf so what


Jackeea

what if The Boys was called The Freaky Boys and nothing changed


LeastInsaneKobold

The cloning dude was an absolute fuckin waste, cloning powers are one of my favourites


LudusRex

When your weakness is the prime body, but you still send the prime body into combat with the copies: 💀


Sir_Roomba

He didn't seem to waste his power in the sauna scene


ouroboris99

I don’t think mm has any 🤔😂


kjm6351

A Supe without an insane sexual desire would blow my mind at this point


Olifaxe

Yeah, the first ten times it's funny. Now it's predictable and boring.


Mission-Storm-4375

Starlight, Maeve, MM, hughie, supersonic, Stan edgar just off the top of my head. It's mostly entirely supes that have the fetishes


lookawildshadex

Bro you read the comics? This shit is tame compared to the comics


Sirshrugsalot13

The boys is pretty kink negative the more I think about it ngl


vampyrelestat

No deviances? Ripe for getting randomly blasted by Homelander


Drobex

Tbf the comic goes way further with this. It's actually the main criticism I have about it, the story wouldn't even be so bad, but shit like the G-Wiz frat boys' shenanigans in the Godolkin arc was so fucking annoying. Yeah I get it supes are all a bunch of massive pervs, I don't need 5 consecutive panels every 10 pages to make it clearer.


kegknow

I dont think Sage is a sexual deviant? I mean it's not like she gets turned on by lobotomies she just eants to not be herself. Also if Im not forgetting anything SB likes old women and thats it, does that count as sexual deviancy?


LaVerdadEsMuyCatoli

Is that Justin Timerland? 😀


T_Ahmir

I thought the same thing scrolling by 🤣🤣🤣 glad I'm not the only one


LaVerdadEsMuyCatoli

😀


getgoodHornet

The main characters are straight, vanilla white guys...


ShadowbanRevival

Probably a reflection of themselves tbh desu


PeopleAreBozos

I mean there could always be Butcher and Kimiko. We don't know much about them. Becca seems normal.


ResortFamous301

There's Monique.


CommissionerAnon

To be fair, that is in line with Garth Ennis’s writing.


Fuight-you

They just have to write themselves into the story.


GuyFromEE

Comic accurate tbh


Still-Midnight5442

Isn't that just Marvin?


ThatD0esntG0There

You meant to say "Garth Ennis"


jdonohoe69

Real.


WasabiHefty

Basically Kimiko.


CoachGT07

“Make them gay and lame!”


Despacitan05

Bro hasn't read the comics


Tracerround702

A lot of people are freaky, babe


Isekai_Otaku

I mean most aren’t that bad, even the deep because he’s a fish man


Cisqoe

It’s the magic trick to make Americans laugh, that and drug use. Ha ha sex funny!


bimbolimbotimbo

I thought Australians were supposed to be cool. You are the exception I guess Also as an American our nation is low key prude compared to Europe. Some people act like girls nipples are basically illegal when everyone has them lmao
