“King of Hell”

You wouldn’t think that they would need to have a filler episode in their final season. Yet, that is exactly what it felt like when watching “King of Hell.”

That is not saying that it was not a great episode. It just did not feel very significant to the overall story that has only a few more episodes to go.

I did like the reunion between Annie and her absentee father, and the family that he had now built. This was some good character work and was the best part of the episode.

With Butcher, Frenchie, Hughie, MM and Kimiko in search of the original V1 formula, they head to Fort Harmony, which was anything but harmonious. There were spores in the building that made everyone become raging assholes (I mean… even more so, in Butcher’s case) which would lead the Boys to try and kill each other.

They also dropped a bunch of angry lines and comments that were cutting with their honesty. While this was entertaining, it felt like a side quest that did not truly mean much of anything with the exception of Frenchie and Kimiko apparently breaking up (maybe?).

Oh, and Homelander has decided that he is the savior… that he is God. And he told Firecracker that she was in charge of making everyone believe it.

Homelander is simply off his rocker completely. His patheticness is reaching new levels of disgusting behavior. There is just so much mental illness in Homelander right now that I have no idea what is going to happen next.

It is fun to know that “The Walking Dead” and “The Last of Us” are canon in the Boys universe.
