Then just keep it to yourself, please. Be respectful of those who haven’t read the comics or haven’t read spoiler material in articles leading up to the season.

The leadership at Vaught has a Homelander problem, and they'll give him as much rope as he needs.
I do see this. His daydream is probably something they are worried might happen.
quote:

what we're seeing is a coup against Homelander, and Stormfront pulling all the strings. She's going to use Maeve, Starlight, ATrain, and her laserproof tits to break Homelander. I think we'll see she's been working alongside Edgar all along to achieve a shared goal. No way he lets her make that anti-Vaught speech without him knowing ahead of time.
Not so sure on that. Edgar is more of an anonymous money hound, definitely doesn't meet the traditional Nazi profile.

Stormfront is allowed, because she already knows firsthand the Nazi background to the company (the tale Edgar told Homelander, she probably came and recited to Edgar before coming in). She's on social media a LOT, and probably said she'd spill the beans if they didn't take her back.
"Liberty"= sounds a whole lot like the actual Vaught story, changing his background to be as American as apple pie. Makes me think she's actually German, not just a Neo Nazi... she might be the first Super. You mention 70 years, I'm leaning more like 80+... she's Red Skull, the V-2, the atomic research, etc. Came over with Vaught when he swapped sides.

Starlight breaking the Compound V story likely makes her position stronger.

I don't think Stormfront is pulling Maeve's strings, or responsible for anything with A-Train, beyond agreeing he has to go. I think she's more a rival to Edgar than complicit with him, and I do think she wants to turn him against the company to support her coup and take the company for herself.

I think Black Noir is Edgar's personal killswitch. All those studies with Gecko, I think they're figuring out ways to kill the Supers (instead of tweaking the formula), and whatever they learn, it gets fed to Black Noir. Thus, the "Batman dossiers" theory... he will have the knowledge on how to take every Super down.
I think he will do just that; and we'll see him do that on a few. Maeve is Homelander's target, so it won't be her. Might be a way of silencing A-Train or The Deep.

There is literally nothing in my post that’s a comic book spoiler. Everything I said is from the show so far so pull the finger out of your arse.

So then you’re posting spoilers of things we haven’t seen yet.

Just. Stop. Nobody wants to read that shite.

How the frick is it a spoiler if it’s not from the comics and I haven’t seen anything beyond episode 5?

Someone on the previous page was literally thinking outloud the same thing I said, I just elaborated on it.

And the comment about who Shawn Ashmore is playing, that was announced before the season even started, so I’m not going to tag it as a spoiler anymore.

Primo: Everybody knows there's been this thing between me and Paul Vitti for a long time.
Dr. Ben Sobel: Which thing are you talking about? The first thing or the second thing?
Primo: What second thing? I only know one thing.
Dr. Ben Sobel: Hey, how can we bring up the first thing if we're not gonna talk about the second thing. Did you talk to the guy?
Primo: What guy?
Dr. Ben Sobel: The guy with the thing!
Primo: What thing? What the frick are you talking about?
Dr. Ben Sobel: How should I know? You brought it up.

Is The Boys set in the same universe as Supernatural or did they name Jim Beaver's character Robert Singer as a joke?

So Stormfront wants to make herself a little white supremacist army with Homelander at the helm.

This is gonna be fun.

Yeah, I think it’s pretty clear now, but I think it might be Homelanders undoing.

Me too. And tied some things together, along with bringing in the new guy in a meaningful way.
