I watched episode 4 of "THE BOYS" Season 4, which aired yesterday.

Wisdom of the Ages, The Boys’s fourth episode, features Antony Starr’s Homelander taking his past and traumas head-on as he goes on to visit his roots, aka the laboratory he was experimented on. While everyone was certain that it would not be a happy family reunion, they were shocked to see the chocolate fudge whale cake the supe brought.
But as was expected, Homelander soon did what he was made for, butchering the entire crew and leaving just the chief scientist Barbara alive and traumatized. As harrowing and as grisly as the scene was, Starr was just as impressive and impeccable. Coupled with Starr’s brilliant performance and the brutal series of events, fans are convinced Homelander is now one of the Best Villains of All Time!
