Starr is a little too good at playing that role Starr is incredible in the role. I love and hate every scene he's in. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Maybe to a certain website? Wasn't really aware of that site until you mentioned it. Her name is directly from the comics, but I'm not sure how long that website has been around or whether it predates the creation of the character. I won't go into too much detail here as I already have some insight into the character from the comics, but some subtle and not so subtle things directly from the first 3 episodes you should have noticed: Notice how she uses social media to garner influence by presenting herself as "different" from the other superheroes; "genuine" if you will Notice how she violently murdered that innocent black family while chasing Kimiko's brother As you already stated, notice the language she uses towards Kimiko's brother when murdering him This one might be a reach, but notice her hair cut, how one side is shaved close to the skin.... 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
AlexGreen#20 Posted September 6, 2020 Share Posted September 6, 2020 (edited) Yeah guys, even if you haven't read the comics it's pretty damn easy to tell what Stormfront is. She's not named after the website. She and the website are both named after the same thing, the Sturmabteilung.

Acgott Posted September 7, 2020 Share Posted September 7, 2020 For comic readers, if I started reading it, would I be spoiling the show, or does it diverge enough for two separate stories? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

THE DUKE Posted September 8, 2020 Share Posted September 8, 2020 I know being a psychopath/mentally imbalanced is a weakness of sorts for Homelander, but do we know of any actual ways to hurt him yet? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
August4th Posted September 8, 2020 Author Share Posted September 8, 2020 people need to get used to this, because I can see streaming sites heading this way..even Netlix might start doing this in the future 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Anticipation and conjecture should be part of a show. All review bombing does is make people ignore reviews. 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I love discussing the show and hearing theories, I don’t want that gone in one day. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
