The Boys: Gen V’s renewal proves it’s better than the comic and show
By Mark Lynch
Gen V’s advantage
To quote Homelander, Gen V can do whatever they want. If the show stays within the present, the people behind the show will adapt. They’ll see what’s currently popular and bring it to the show. The slang, social media platforms, and more will be used to keep the show relatable. They could also go into the past. It would be interesting to see how Godolkin University started, who was involved, and all of the secrets that the university is hiding.
If Gen V wanted to get bold, they could take a journey into the future. What would Godolkin be like decades into the future? Is Vought International still running the show or has the government stepped in? Or what if someone even worse is in charge? The options are endless. Time travel can be a confusing or tiring concept, but not here. Imagine what a person from this universe would do with access to the time stream. It would be a mess.
All of these advantages could make Gen V better than its predecessor. Stay tuned to Bam Smack Pow to find out if this becomes true.
