Good for the Soul

Episode 3 of The Boys features the funniest and most outrageous scene of the series so far: pinned down by machine gun fire, Billy Butcher (Karl Urban) clutches a baby with laser eyes and uses it to slice one man in half and decapitate another. They're going to have to go some if they want to top this.

This episode also entertains with its anti-religion plot thread, with swipes at Christian rallies and evangelist leaders. Bitter Billy is a riot once again as he goes into a rant, calling God the 'C' word and generally upsetting self-righteous bible-bashers. It's guaranteed to enrage church-goers, but atheists will have a blast.

My favourite episode so far in a thoroughly entertaining series.
