The Boys is gleefully violent parody of all things Marvel and DC. Now, the two worlds are yoked together, with predictably bloody results.
The Boys just wrapped up its intense, ridiculous second season; seriously, it was crazy. The finale was jam-packed with twists and turns, several of them courtesy of Homelander’s (Antony Starr), the show’s demented version of Superman. Losing Stormfront seemingly pushed him over the edge, and he was already way too close to it.
In the finale, a very angry Homelander shows up at his cabin looking for Butcher (Karl Urban), who has taken his son Ryan (Cameron Crovetti). When he realizes they aren’t there, his anger gets the best of him and he murders all the Vought agents inside of the cabin.
It’s a pretty epic scene, and now, thanks to video editor Gugga Leunnam, it just got even cooler. In his fan-made edit, Gugga mashes up the scene of Homelander entering the cabin with a scene from Avengers: Age of Ultron. It doesn’t end well for Marvel’s favorite heroes.
The edit is so seamless that you can’t tell it’s from two completely different movies. You shouldn’t have stepped on the LEGOs, Thor. And Homelander keeps it up by taking his anger out on Thanos. That’s a tough call, but I’d put money on Homelander. Sure, Thanos has the power of the Infinity Stones at his command, but Homelander is the angriest villain I’ve ever seen. There is so much grief, violence and bitterness inside of the guy, I’m not sure any superpower can compete.
Also, flipping things, another fan made a deepfake video with Chris “Captain America” Evans as Homelander:
"Deepfaked Chris Evans onto Homelander from TheBoys"
That is not a comparison we like to make.
While we wait for The Boys season 3, who do you think would win?
