Thanks for checking out the video, we are going to have a ton more Gen V content coming. One quick note... I didn't mention Pre-wiz (a booster program) at the Godolkin school. Almost everyone in The G-Men goes from Pre-Wiz to G-Wiz, to one of the major teams. I didn't explain that but undoubtedly, if i don't say it here, someone is going to "umm actually" me.

I just now realized that this show is the reverse of the boys premise, in the boys our main characters is a group of mostly non powered individuals fighting against twisted superhero to bring the truth to light, while in gen v they're figthing human who tries to hide the negative side of v'd up young supe

I really like how when The Boys show and Gen V deal with messed up topics they have a reason and purpose. Like the main girl cutting herself for her powers as an allegory for self harm or in The Boys where not every supe is some muderous sex deviant. The comics just had shit like that without any nuisance or tact. It was just blatantly “This supe is fucked up, but wait, another supe is even MORE fucked up! Why? Just cuz superheroes suck!” It gets edgy and boring unlike the show.

I don't think the Godolkin University show can end the same way as the comic. In the comic, we just had a pedo professor and all his students get Order 66'd by some soldier goons because some corporate head was afraid they'd stain Vought's reputation. But in the show, the guy in charge of Vought now is Homelander, and I don't see him calling in the soldiers to purge the university, even if Butcher discovers something compromising about them. More likely, Homelander would just cover things up and use propaganda to sanitize the university's reputation while putting in someone he can trust to manage it in his name.

I binged the first three episodes of "Gen V" and once again, Amazon has a hit! I'm really enjoying The Boys and all it's spinoffs!

This is one of the only things that i think might be changed to be less distrubing in the show, although we still don't know where the show's Godolkin is. Or if he's even alive. If the place was founded in the 60's, he's probably dead. But who knows, maybe the woods thing was inspired by the horrible things he did. "If he was able to hide what he did, we can to" type of deal.

I think the show's been excellent so far (up to episode 4). If you like the Boys, you should like this show. The characters are interesting. Even characters I thought I was going to dislike the whole time are winning me over.

anyone remember team Super Duper, I was hoping they adapt that part in Gen V since GEN V was about teenagers, but I guess they will save that for Season 3 of the boys, that part is personally one of my faves cause it shows there is shades of grey and at the end of the day not everyone is fucking evil and there still is some innocent among the guilty.

They kind of did the military strike murdering all of the children in the cartoon while the suicide was done by Goldenboy in episode 1. It's interesting how they take something from here and put it there and something from somewhere else and put it in the next thing rather than go with just the shock value of the comics.

I kind of hope the show does a shift and actually shows more in school/classes that most “Teen shows” obviously omit to have more time with the plot/drama but feel like the show could come up with some dope fake electives, majors etc.

And if Godalkin has a kiddie program, then perhaps that's where sis ended up after Marie was arrested and confined. Similarly, Kate's brother might actually still be alive somewhere, and if she was dosed, then why not her brother? Godalkin could be taking special care of the little ones.

Honestly this is my favorite part of the comics. It is mysterious to read it first time, but when you read it again it becomes much sadder. Writing vise it is very good

You are making a mistake in thinking here. Exactly because it makes you uncomfortable that subject matter needs to be talked about at times. Because fiction is often just a mirror of the real world. While I write this comment countless children get abused on this planet in some way, and the more people know about the signs to look for the more of it could be prevented (in theory). People have the tendency to "forget" unpleasant things if no one talks about it, which is exactly why such things must not be forgotten. Too many real Godolkins in this world.

I read the comics after season 1 of the Boys, I agree the show is so much better, and Gen V so far is really great. The comics seemed to just be over the top and shocking just for the sake of it.
