    We're halfway through and loving it.  Inappropriate humor and hilarious lines - kinda reminds me of Barry.

    The dolphin scene?  Priceless.

    I thought the head crushing scene was right up there with dolphin one.  So funny

    I did the first 2 episodes last night and friggin LOVED it.  I really, really hope they don't screw this story up.  Keep having the superheroes do not so super stuff.  I like that.

    So VOUGHT the company that runs the Supers is like Damage Control in the Marvel comics universe.  It is a little different but it's still a cool idea.

    Love this.

    2 more episodes tonight!

    I am loving this show thus far.  Very original for the “superhero era”

    I just found out that he is from New Zealand.  He's done good on that accent! 

    Should he get the nod for acting or because he masks his accent so well?

    Acting. They don't give it for accents. Unless you need to do one. But not specifically for accents

    He is perfect casting. From a distance that is exactly what a cross between Superman and Captain America would look like. But up close? He looks terrifying.

    He was the main character in Banshee....another awesome show worth checking out.  I think that one is streaming on Prime Video as well.

    Loved the first season of The Boys....definitely not your typical superheroes!  And season 2 is already in production.
