Gen V is set at Godolkin University School of Crimefighting, America's only college exclusively for young adult superheroes run by Vought International, and it explores the lives of hormonal, competitive Supes as they put their physical, sexual, and moral boundaries to the test, competing for the best contracts in the best cities. It's part college show, part Hunger Games - with all the heart, satire, and raunch of The Boys.
Great spin-off series... better than the original?Maybe!
Sad to hear of the death of one of the lead actors, he was great on Sabrina, but I hope the show will be able to pivot while keeping the quality up there!

Damn! Sad news - liked him!
Like the show! Much better than initially expected and a full ★ better than TheBoys, which is "ok" but just not "good" :) - hope they recover and we see lots of future seasons...
Oh i thought we were only doing powers from this show. If they're all opened up I'd be hard pressed not to take Multiple Man's power set - make clones of yourself, free labor, and when you reabsorb them you learn everything they learned while separate. Oh and recently (despite years of him being broke) things he's holding, including money, have duplicated too.
Blink is the teleporter you're thinking of
It was actually Gateway, and I forgot his gates could also be opened across time and dimensions too which is an extra level of dopeness. Multiple man is a really cool one too, and yeah it'd be awesome to be a one man construction crew. I always thought he should have named himself Legion or Army or something along those lines. You could also create backups of yourself across the world.
From the Boys, immortality is always a huge draw, and the ability to like, power your own house would be cool.

what about a poll - which sup power would you best like to have? I think the head popper for me
Teleportation. I forget which X-man it was that could create gates to any point on the planet or to the moon, but that is the ideal power. You could make a fortune gating trains and cargo around the world and instantly transporting people too.
Out of all the powers we've seen on the Boys? Stormfront. Immortality, lightning, flight, super strength, and bulletproof? Sign me up.
I have a theory she's still around. We never saw her die. And when homelander "lasered her tits" she was damaged but seemed to heal quickly. I wonder if she might regenerate and return.

As for the which superpower poll. You'd be crazy not to pick anything other than the mind control ability.
Why would you need the ability to blow people's heads off unless you just want to be a mass murderer? Are you thinking you would use it as a threat to get them to do what you want? Well just have the ability to directly control their thoughts and you dont have to overtly threaten them or actually kill people that call your bluff..
Mind control might sound good in theory, but Cate really seemed to suffer the more she was using it. And getting internal bleeding or even dementia as a result would suck.
I also don't understand the head-popping appeal... But law enforcement surely would need help to put someone like that in jail. :)

I ended up really enjoying it as a whole.
