The Boys: Gen V’s renewal proves it’s better than the comic and show
By Mark Lynch
Gen V continues to be better than The Boys comic book and could end up being better than the Amazon Prime show.
The announcement of Gen V wasn’t as exciting as getting a release date for season 4 of The Boys. Fans were pumped for anything involving the popular Amazon show, but people wanted to know what’s next within the series. Once Gen V was released, it was easy to see that this was going to be a great addition to The Boys universe.
A friend said that Gen V‘s relatability helped make the show interesting. Emma’s insecurity, Marie’s need to prove herself, and Jordan’s sexuality are all relatable topics. There’s also the need to be popular among your peers so that everyone can understand. Not just in school. It happens at work and with family as well.
What makes this so impressive is this happened during the show’s three-episode premiere. As Gen V continued, the story got even better. There was more going on than drama among the students. The faculty was up to no good and Vought International was involved. That’s when it became more than just a spin-off of The Boys. It was something special.
