I also like how homelander is treated by the government. They are TERRIFIED OF HIM. They will never charge him with shyt because they know they can't stop him if he does get angry. shyt is hilarious. It is basically the plothole of Superman. Would you really try to arrest a nikka who can blow the planet up and is unkillable?


ehh. ill just say theres a contigency for everything in that world

He is not pure evil. He is chaotic Neutral. Nothing evil about him at all.

In fact, he saves people all the time simply because it is "interesting."

He lives just to see what happens and he will do horrible things just like he would do good things. In fact, proof of this is how he doesn't torture people. Once he deems you a problem, he gets rid of you instantly. Once he deems you beneficial, he makes you a great offer.

Dude has no morality.
:russ:

This must be in the show only

Cuz Garth Ennis sure as hell ain't that complex

And I read the comic but ain't seen the show

Don’t think you know what the definition of anti hero is op

You nikkas really are slow aren't you..homelander is an anti hero because he lacks the main characteristics of what it is to be a hero (selflessness) and this matters because he is portrayed as a hero to the masses, he does things for his own good and not the good of others. Look up the definition of an anti hero.

An antihero is the main character of a story, but one who doesn't act like a typical hero. ... Traditionally, theprotagonist — main character and focus — of a story has been a hero: someone good, noble, and brave. However, some stories change things up by having anantihero instead. An antihero may not be heroic at all.

homelander isnt the main character, or protagonist of the series, the boys are anti heroes. to the public of the boys world, hes a hero. to the readers/viewers he an antagonist. hes a selfish ass that takes what he wants and is only concerned with his public appearance.
