The Boys - An Amazon Prime adaptation of the Ennis comic series

[God of Nothing]

I mean, living in pretty much any comic city would be a nightmare. Trying to enjoy your weekend, when bam, Darkseid boom-tubes onto mainstreet with an army of parademons, and the rest of your day off is spent in a bunker while the Justice League throws your car at him.

It isn't meant to be a skirt or kilt, it's the bottom of a tunic.

I dunno, Central City seems pretty tame since the most dangerous supervillain there just wants to fuck with the local superhero on increasingly petty levels.

I don't think they had robots that can bench-press a truck while also flying and shooting lasers. That, and Vought's specialty is bioengineering and pharmaceuticals, not robotics. They're not Stark Industries or Baktoid Armor Workshop.

You have these things called "construction equipment" which can effortlessly lift tons and doesn't disobey. Check out Supergod by Warren Ellis for an example of how making Supermen IRL can go. Robots can certainly bench-press a truck while also flying and shooting lasers, steel is stronger than muscular tissue but we're operating on comic logic.

Vought doesn't specialize in making them. That's not their forte; their forte, as I said, is bioengineering and pharmaceuticals.

Also, criminals can easily hijack construction equipment.

I spared myself the flagellation of actually watching the Boys and have found this review of the series instead.

So here's the breakdown of the show and why it's so shitty, the first season had actual intrigue and decent writing because one of the writers was Vince Gilligan of Breaking Bad fame, but he left after Season 1 and the other writer, a Jewish man by the name of Eric Kripke, took over. The moment Kripke gets behind the wheel is when the series becomes an unwatchable shitshow of ridiculously cruel and degenerate caricatures of superheroes meant to lampoon right wingers.

Thing is, this sort of writing rings a lot of bells in my head, I remember it from shit like the Walking Dead and Game of Thrones and a lot of other shows that are just hazy fogs in my memory.

I have to ask, are most Jewish people this obnoxious or is this just a Hollywood thing? Are there any Jewish writers that are any good at actually writing or is Jewish writing just a long cascade of open and hostile contempt for audiences?

I know the entire show is full of exploding assholes and other Jewish degeneracy but as an animal lover and someone really into conservation I really disliked the running "gag" of The Deep's sea creature friends being gruesomely mutilated and killed in front of him for no reason at all other than zoosadist shock value.
