After enduring a childhood scarred by those who turned him into a supe, Homelander was finally able to exact his revenge. It’s safe to say that Episode 4 has forever changed the way fans will view Fudgy the Whale.
Prior to the airing of the episode, Eric Kripke, the creator, shared on social media, “You won’t believe @antonystarr’s performance in this one. As someone who has edited numerous #Homelander scenes, I can confidently say this is one of the best and most terrifying. It’s time to give this man an Emmy!”
The brutal display was reminiscent of a scene from a horror film, as Homelander mercilessly used his laser vision to cauterize a man’s genitals due to his inability to achieve sexual arousal, all while emitting a maniacal laugh that would haunt someone’s dreams.
After massacring every employee except for Barbara, Homelander’s true murderous chaos was witnessed by her, leading to his undeniable “unhinged”state where his inner thoughts prevailed.
“According to one fan on X/Twitter, the latest episode of The Boys, Episode 4, was the standout of the season thus far. They noted that Homelander’s descent into madness was more pronounced than ever, and the final shot of him exacting revenge on those who experimented on him as a child was truly cinematic.”
Another individual expressed their thoughts by saying, “The latest episode of @TheBoysTV, Season 4 Episode 4, is absolutely mind-blowing! I have never been more terrified of Homelander than I was today. @antonystarr should be applauded for their outstanding performance in this installment. There were multiple moments that made me queasy while watching this episode.”
Starr’s performance as his character, combined with his unsettling laughter, left a lasting impression on many, leaving them feeling uneasy and sending shivers down their spines.
According to a fan, it wasn’t until The Boys Season 4 Episode 4 that they realized Homelander is not only a violent sociopath, but a complete maniac.
The majority of fans were in consensus that Episode 4 marked a pivotal moment that will significantly alter Homelander’s journey for the remainder of the season. It can be assumed that Homelander’s narrative will veer towards a darker path as his following continues to expand and he remains unaccountable for his deeds.
