In this Friendsgiving Friday spotlight, comic book expert and DC-Marvel-Gen V guru Thomas (aka Mr. MacLeod) joins the Film Geeks crew for a deep dive into Gen V Season 2 and the evolving world of The Boys universe.

We explore how power is inherited, manipulated, and sometimes misused—especially when blood becomes a weapon. From Marie’s true strength to Homelander’s crumbling facade, this episode asks the real question: who’s the villain when everyone’s a hero in their own mind?

We also tap into the underrated brilliance of DC’s animated films, how comic lore compares to live action, and why Batman might still be the GOAT—even in a world full of Homelander clones.

If you're into superhero theory, comic canon debates, or just love a good power-swap storyline—this one's for you.
