This is effectively a satire on society, and how we have a tendency to idolize anything that is big and flashy. So many of us are looking for a savior on some level and the likes of Homelander could be it in this world \u2026 even if in reality, he\u2019s terrible.<\/p>\n<p>Through the first two seasons, we\u2019ve seen the difference between the fa\u00e7ade and reality, and we\u2019ve also seen somewhat with Stormfront how far back it goes. As we get into season 3, signs point even more to an exploration of superhero culture and American history. What caused this mentality of hero worship in the first place?<\/p>\n<p><strong>Want to catch up on our\u00a0<em>The Boys\u00a0<\/em>review coverage?\u00a0<\/strong>Check out our take on the season 2 finale!

We were really interested in exploring both the recent history of Vought, the company in the show, but also through that the recent history of the United States\u2026 We got really interested in the myths we tell ourselves, to feel that we\u2019re righteous, really exploring America itself as a myth.<\/p>\n<p style=\"padding-left: 40px;\">A big element of the comics actually are flashbacks to World War II and Vietnam. I always really loved it because you got to see how the superhero phenomenon didn\u2019t just affect the present, but how it affected parts of the past as well. And so we have this character, Soldier Boy, played by Jensen Ackles, and he\u2019s been around since World War II and was the first Vought superhero. Through him and through his story, we\u2019re able to explore a lot of the history of the country, really.<\/p>\n<p>So there you have it \u2014 maybe we\u2019ll all learn something along the way in season 3 while simultaneously watching characters get decapitated. The show can be dark, twisted, hilarious,\u00a0<em>and\u00a0<\/em>educational all at the same time!<\/p>\n<p>Unfortunately, there is no premiere date yet for season 3.<\/p>\n<h3><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"What_do_you_want_to_see_on_The_Boys_when_it_comes_back\"><\/span>What do you want to see on\u00a0<em>The Boys\u00a0<\/em>when it comes back?<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h3>\n<p>Be sure to share right away in the comment box below!
