‘The Boys’ Spinoff in Development at Amazon Following Massive Season 2 Launch
"The spinoff is set at America’s only college exclusively for young adult superheroes (or “supes”) that is run by Vought International. It is described as an irreverent, R-rated series that explores the lives of hormonal, competitive supes as they put their physical, sexual, and moral boundaries to the test, competing for the best contracts in the best cities. Part college show, part Hunger Games — with all the heart, satire and raunch of “The Boys.”
Lamplighter has appeared in the show. In the comics he had a very messed up fate.

He is introduced as brain dead

In the comic, there is a children's superhero group in the storyline called "The Innocents". It's one of the best stories in the comic. Nothing with college aged though.

They really did Lamplighter

And about Black Noir

girl
fight reminds me a bit of what happened in the comic but they did a fake-out. Also it was really low budget and difficult to watch. Stormfront should been a scary dude or a monster of a woman.
Spoiler
Girl fights suck.
+Becca actress is wife material
Spoiler
and I knew that something like that would happen to her, it was coming.. didn't expect SF to go down though. In the comics Becca dies in a similar way, although in another context.
I liked how Vic

hopefully season 3 will have a bigger budget!!!
Homelander 's fate
Spoiler
looks clear- eventually he will go rogue.
teehee!
