    So, just something else I was thinking about last night after wrapping the series up yesterday... maybe it's in the comics, and if so don't tell me (just say "yes, it's coming"), but...
    There's got to be something with Hughie's relatively last-minute reveal that his mom isn't dead, she just "left and disappeared," right?

    Nope, this is another one where I'm pretty certain it diverges from the comics.

    Regarding Hughie’s parents in the comics
    IIRC he’s adopted, and doesn’t know his biological family.
    I think it’s safe to say the TV show has completely split from the comics now, and that they only use them for Easter Eggs.

    I just finished all of the comics last night, and I gotta say, I ended up really enjoying it. But it isn't nearly as good as the show.

    Just finished the second season. Hot damn that was good! Karl Urban is amazing on this show as is the guy who plays Homelander although good god do I want somebody to vaporize him.

    I finished season 2 last night, too. Started it months ago, but I only take Amazon Prime for one month at a time, and my last session ended with the last two episodes yet to be shown. And yes, Karl Urban and Antony Starr shine even in a cast that is uniformly good. Starr's Homelander is just so believably played as someone with deep emotional issues that peek out from behind the mask he presents to the public. The little twitches in the face that Starr gives just kill me - very nicely played. Also got to mention Aya Cash as Stormfront this season - she was really good, too.

    Indeed. The subtleties Starr brings to his character are truly great. The whole cast does an excellent job. It's not often that I enjoy every character/actor on a show. Any word on when the third season will drop? I'm guessing that's up to COVID.

    @Diggy @cubman987 - finally started this, two episodes in. It's intense and weird, but I like it.
