- Daybreak 1.8

Hits a lot harder when we later learn that Gilpatrick relied heavily on Victoria for support in the Patrol Block, and was so happy to see her as a positive face when he got powers against his will

Dude searched up anyone who may have been able to help her and did a damn good job. Respect Gilpatrick.

finally an answer to the age-old question, “who is the tony hawk of eorzea”

[sky-striker-ace-zettaflare]

I’ve got a lot of thoughts and half-written posts about how Worm and The Boys treat the concept of gritty, corrupt institutionalized superheroes, but I think the easiest way to articulate the difference is this:

Worm argues that if you’ve reached a point where superheroes are genuinely societally necessary to keep things functional, your society is already utterly fucked; the corruption, violence, ulterior motives and neuroses of your superheroes are a downstream thing you have to uncomfortably work around and paper over because you really do need as many superheroes around as possible to deal with the Kaiju and the unstoppable serial killers and the nanotech gray goo swarms. But every injustice perpetuated in the name of keeping the superhero system functioning- the treatment of Taylor’s bullying, Assault’s placement with Battery, Canary and the Birdcage, the Cauldron Coverup, Kill Orders, Simurgh quarantines, the C53 experiments- they’re all portrayed as bad things done by people who thought the alternative was worse.

Worm says, needing superheroes would be terrible.

In The Boys, superheroes are fundamentally superfluous to society (as a dig at law enforcement, the MI complex and Celebrities.) Unlike the comic, the supes are pretty combat capable, but there’s no problem on earth you specifically need to get a superhero to deal with, there are a lot of problems made worse by involving a superhero, the only people getting anything out of the existence of superheroes are the heroes themselves and the merchandisers. It’s purely parasitic. And yet more superheroes keep being made, because people like the idea they’ve been sold about superheroes (which is highlighted in season 3 in the meeting about Blue Hawk, where Deep says they should be going for more superheroes and not tighter regulation of existing superheroes like A-Train wants.) 

The Boys says: Having or wanting superheroes would be terrible.
