    The Boys (Season One) is Diabolical

    You know what I have really come to despise? The ‘evil-Superman’ trope. We’ve seen it plenty of times now, such as with the Injustice games/comics with an actual evil Superman to that Brightburn movie that no one seems to remember. It isn’t a bad idea, but so often the writers don’t do anything with it…
