Soldier Boy Anatomy Explored - Is He Really Capable Of Killing Homelander? Is He Coming Back?

[@levilandes1719]

I don't think the show's version of soldier boy is really evil, broken, shell shocked, and mildly brainwashed sure, but not evil. He keeps his word, holds his temper in check(remember when he slapped Hughie but Hughie head stayed attached?), and doesn't automatically start killing ever, even when he was being attacked by his erstwhile "allies" he made no attempt to kill anyone until they hit him with the novachok, and that's more terror of going back to the russians in my opinion than it is anger.

[@jigsaw9749]

even his arrogance is nowhere close to omnipotence. He sees himself as a human, a soldier unlike Homelander who calls himself God

[@channelZER01]

No, he's pretty evil dude.

[@Errorvirus404]

​@victornieves1794 he is definitely not a good person, far from it but I also won't call him evil. He's mostly just a mentally scared man who never was loved by him own father, and let me tell you that can really damage a kid so it's no surprise he turned out the way he did. He did cheat on his girlfriend but they were just filings that didn't mean anything to him, he even said he wanted to start a family with countess showing he care for her more than the other women he slept with. It's still not right but he did love her in his own flawed way. Lastly he did abuse his team but they are no better then him. They were just as guilty of doing horrible things as he is but unlike them Soldier Boy has some redeemable qualities. He's not sadistic, power hungry, or has a god complex and he clearly has a sense of honor and is a man of his word. So he is a very bad, flawed person but he's not evil.

[@DinoDAngelo-q9l]

Yeah, I was one of the first people to discuss this topic years ago and I have convinced hundreds of thousands of people he's not he's just flawed and has supe based mental disorders talked about his canon crimes I had a 99% mind cage rate so I would say he's def not evil. But at this point my view on his has evolved to being that's the wrong convo to have and I don't even want to entertain it it's so obvious he's not, since he's immortal he should actually be a commentary on toxic masculinity and becoming a better person and get help and confess his crimes to the public and actually be a good hero who survives and is a pillar of humanity as guardian man as the first real hero atoning for his past teaching other from himself as Ryans captain America grandpa raising his superman grandson carrying his sons ashes regretting never getting to love his son insuring nobody will ever have to be like him again wishing it turned out better raising a new generation of real heroes as a goofy loving grandpa dad with a toxic past that carries the wight of those he hurt seeing them when he goes to sleep trying to make it up to their families allowing mothers milk to forgive him and heal and be a great dad. But since the show isn't intelligent in any way, he will get a terrible short redemption arc at best in a short mid-season finally battle and end him but the heroes fail for a terrible shock scene that might be part of a terrible but look at what solider boy did redemption arc we should be like him and Ryan will use it as his backstory as a pillar and first real hero.

Its confrimed the new boys spinoff about soldier boy and stormfront is coming

[@michaelkoukaras7515]

Soldier Boy is the only Supe to display a secondary mutation thanks to the Russian experiments. Liberty(Stormfront) and Soldier Boy were the first two successful test subjects. That tells me that the original formula for compound V probably was responsible for that. I think when they designed Homelander they designed him to age on purpose so he wouldn't be immortal.

[@TJBlack3.5]

So did he develop the blast from them pouring drugs into him, or he developed it from the sheer stress of being tortured day and night?

[@thatsnotgonewellatall5517]

@@Small_child_punter Could easily be both. Seems like his heart has been turned into a nuclear reactor by the insane amount of radiation he has dealt with

[@vornamenachname989]

I think it was different, I think the first compound V had a lower success rate. They noticed that the success rate of having normal superpowers without unpredictable mutations was higher in infants, but they needed to revise compound V to remove the slowed (or stopped) aging part because a superpowered infant that can't age is pretty useless obviously. Homeland wasn't designed to not be immortal, they just needed him to actually grow to adult age. Also regarding Homelander, I think it was mentioned somewhere that the more V someone gets in the first dosage, the stronger his superpowers are going to be, so I'm assuming Homelander was just designed to survive the highest possible dosage of compound V (just a theory obviously).

I don't think he's the most durable Homelander and he are probably tied in that.. As a child, Homelander was put in an oven and baked at god know what levels of heat. He had his arm put in an incinerator, they boiled him in acid. Used countless implements on him to test the strength of his skin, had him fight against fully grown supes, had his head mashed into concrete. All this, while still a child. Lets not forget he had a train dropped on him in Season 2 and didn't even have a scratch from it.

In that scuffle Homelander suffered a bruise that lasted like 5 days and Soldier Boy had no injuries.

[@craigfin3222]

As for the aging, I think it's because Soldier Boy like Stormfront was given the original Compound V. While all supes after Soldier Boy and Stormfront were given Volgubaum's recreation/new V.

[@danielcastrejon6184]

I mean yeah like even homelander is being shown to age yet him and Stormfront didn’t, shit they even hooked up

[@alexistaylor969]

No there is no aging question to start with in regards to Soldier Boy. Flashbacks show a CGI deaged Jensen Ackles as past Soldier Boy and current time scenes show a clearly almost 50 years old Jensen Ackles as modern Soldier Boy. Only idiots are like "um herp derp Soldier Boy doesn't age." The original supes do age, just slightly slower because their bodies are more durable and their immune systems are better at killing old cells but their DNA still breaks down eventually. About the only one possibly immune will be Kimiko due to her fast healing, but she has clearly aged in just a few seasons, so her healing factor probably won't protect her from bad DNA either, in fact if her healing starts from cells that had injured DNA then she will possibly age even faster. As for Homelander, the kid has been mentally and emotionally unstable since day one due to Vaught's intention to make a controllable and easily manipulated psychopath...that kind of constant mental and emotional stress will give you gray hair and wrinkles far sooner, hell look at military guys even if they never deploy to a combat zone, they are super fit but still go gray/balled early and their faces can easily look 50-60 when they are in their 30s to 40s.| All other new supes that have been shown to age are a result of talking massive amounts of drugs including compound V to enhance the effects of other drugs.

Soldier Boy is like when you put all your stats into defense. I think compared to the other supes he's the most durable, even more than Homelander. Homelander has flight and speed and more strength but I honestly don't think Homelander could kill Soldier Boy even with his advantages. We've yet to see anything hurt Soldier Boy but Maeve was able to wound Homelander. So I think that's what they're leaning into, Soldier Boy being the most invulnerable and durable Supe alive. Maybe not the strongest or fastest or with most diverse powers but DEFINITELY an immovable object so to speak

wrong soldier boy didn’t age at all before the russians took him, he would have been over the age of 60 years old when the russians captured him in the 1980s considering he was in world war 2 a 40 year old gap from the 40s to the 80s so the russian experiments are not what stoped his aging, also stormfront didnt age as well either so it’s safe to say that given compound v in high dosage and a controlled laboratory setting can give them near immortality.

[@LAWLESSXX88]

Yeah he really hasn't aged since he became a supe. It seems he ages like Wolverine James Howlett which was born in 1832. Don't know if Soldier Boy will age at all but I'm thinking he does age but very very slow

I think what should've also been covered or discussed is that he's so strong that he's the only person who can really carry his shield, which I am interested in learning the properties of as is so heavy that no normal human being could even pull it off the ground yet Soldier Boy is able to hold it with one hand and use it as a defensive weapon in the same motion, and how it's able to take both heat vision blasts from Butcher and Homelander as well as buck shots from Mother's Milk

Soldier boy however is literally more durable than even homelander outright. After getting hit by HL he suffered no visible damage while homelander got bruises from the fight. Homelander was hurt by someone lower than him in the form of Maeve. Solider boy has only been visibly harmed by a full force blast of butcher’s heat vision to the face. That only left a small cut on his cheek. He may be slightly weaker than homelander but strong enough to almost match him while being more durable with a more deadly blast at his call.

[@metascrub285]

Second. He needs help to take on homelander. It was clear in their fight that homelanders strength was starting to overwhelm him and homelander was gonna choke him out till butcher stepped in.

Soldier boy doesn’t age because soldier boy and stormfront and the early sups got a pure dose of compound V made by Fredrick Vaught and not the watered down version made by Dr Volgebaum.

[@user-dt7vt3cm2b]

I think the aging can be explained by him taking an older version of compound V. It is known that Dr Vought made a pure and perfect version of compound V, but it was diluted by US government due to cut budget. I think along with storm-front he took an early version and it made him ageless just like her. He also took it as an adult so it was likely same version as one stormfront took. I do wanna point out that there are still ageless dupes made with newer compound v such as black noir so it really may all be just his luck.

I argue that Soliderboy is stronger than Homelander. The blast weakens him to about 50 percent and even at that he can still tussle with Homelander. At 100 percent he can fully choke Homelander out and the only reason Ryan knocked him down was because he was in the process of blasting Homelander. When he subdued his blast he knocked Ryan completely out. Naw Soliderboy is the strongest sup, no doubt.

I have a theory about Meave and Soldier Boy when they fell off the tower. I believe that Soldier Boy threw her behind his back so that she wouldn't be hit by a nuclear explosion. I think he had respect for her for being the only one who kept her word and wanted to kill Homlander. I don't know to what extent and if it has completely lost its power... In my opinion, she regenerates and V stayed in her veins. If she didn't have it anymore, she wouldn't have survived the fall from such a height. In my opinion, Soldier Boy was getting stronger with each blast, and maybe every day without inhaling the gas with which they were freezing him, he weakened him and needed time to get it out. Butcher and Homlander were banging hard, and in the last episode of Soldier Boy, he destroyed Butcher. You could see a huge advantage not only in training, but also in strength... In my opinion, Soldier Boy will come back when Meave regains his power and tries to free him. I think Homlander will find out that she is alive and kill her love. He will kill her in front of Meave and leave her alive to live with it. Then Meave will somehow combine the C-V and regain power. He will find out about Soldier Boy and free him. I think that both of them will not survive the clash, and certainly one of them.

Can someone please explain the "Kimiko" piano/singing arc? They introduced some girl that was influential enough to make her start wanting to learn, kept singing the song the 2 briefly sang together and then just stopped. Then again I'm half way thru season 3, but so far....nothing

[@simonkern7208]

0:19 Slashed cheek but sure "impenetratable". The gas thrown at him by MM is not Novichok but Halothane.

[@FsicX]

the cheek was not slashed it get lasered by butcher from point blank range with his full power

[@KenTronico]

I think a full powered blast would take the V out of homelander or probably make his powers decline until he has none

[@sandroirizarry9546]

You do know Homelander is also durable, he is the genetic clone of Stormfront and Soldierboy his father. Soldierboy's radiation blast may weakend Homelander but not to the point to strip him off his powers.

[@FaroiaAlves]

This Soldier Boy would have a stand alone movie on is own.

[@SayedFarih-uw3uv]

His shield is so heavy that Hughie once tried to lift it up and failed to even move it.

[@jeykey7140]

There's a theory that Soldier Boy doesn't age because he was first exposed to V as an adult. All other sups were injected as babies so Vought had to let them age.

[@edwardsanchez3708]

I bet ryan is going to end up becoming more evil and stronger than homelander and butcher and homelander will have to team up to stop him but ryan and homelander will take eachother out

[@Sjlense]

the problem of tv show is that they have developed so many story lines that the entire season 4 is just a bunch of fillers. They needed to get rid some of the characters to close their story lines so there would be more screen time for developing that Soldier boy vs Homelander vs Butcher arc, which is basically the main storyline everyone is following, instead of watching A-train being resurrected like tenth time in a row

[@waterteafan9264]

He's not just maybe the most powerful supe, he also got power negation like damn

[@wildspin360]

Actually, in the comic book: the first soldier boy was not a coward, but was found unconscious in a war battle, was found and shot on the head while unconscious. The second soldier boy in the comic version was a coward.

[@jigsaw9749]

but why doesn’t his radiation energy destroy his uniform? I mean, his uniform is simply made of leather fabric plastics, etc. his suit isn’t built for his radiation energy, He got those powers after getting kidnapped by Russians Is that plot armor? why did they made Hughie naked when he teleports?

[@shadowhulk19]

Hughie can only teleport organic matter, Annie was also naked when teleported by Hughie.

[@KingM119]

​@@shadowhulk19you didn't answer his question whatsoever

“Because it doesn’t, shut up.”

You may as well ask why Kryptonite doesn't cause clothes to fall to pieces...

[@abha8853]

We want a one on one fight, Homelander vs Soldier Boy

[@OldbonesxD]

Jensen was the ONLY choice for soldier boy . NOBODY COULD but him . And yes he can kill homelander.

[@CrystalLakeLegacy]

Well, turns out u we’re wrong because they THANKFULLY had the short after credits scene showing Homelander being shown by the new president that they are now in possession of the comatose Soldier Boy🤙🏻🤙🏻🤙🏻🤙🏻

[@noiminoimi1179]

I honestly think hes at least on par or if not more durable then homelander. In their fight he bruised homelander while remaining unscathed. Aswell as he already blew his load with that beam so he was worn out in his fight with homelander. So it could also be argued that his strength is close if not equal fully charged.

[@dcstarboi6460]

Riddle me this: if soldier boy could easily toss a car, why couldn’t he toss kimiko and everyone else through a couple buildings? Let me guess, V also makes the user heavier?🤔

[@Randomperson11121]

it’s a tv show without that kinda budget, should’ve occured to you when the building they 3v1ed homelander was still standing

[@AtronixFx]

I think the only reason solder boy was losing to homelander at herogasm was because he used his depower blast before fighting homelander, since we have onky seen solder boy use it once a day

[@themustardcat1415]

We need solider boy back

[@sliferxxxx]

Here's a question though. Most of the other supes got their powers from compound V. But Homelander is different. He got his powers from SB. Therefore maybe SBs power to delete Compund V may not work on Homelander.

[@TheTNK97]

I don’t think he’ll show up in S4 bur he better show up for S5.

[@RelaxVibes-ln6pc]

I believe soldier boy doesn't age and homeland does because soldier boy was injected as an adult, after his body had fully grown while homelander was born a supe so would naturally age.

[@RealSlendyBoi]

I think its possible that Soldier Boy, like Stormfront, is immortal in the sense that he doesn't age at all whatsoever. I find it incredibly unlikely that he'd be totally immortal.

[@jamielancaster01]

For a man who is supposed to be in his mid 20s, he looks like he’s in his mid 40s.

[@skjhon7277]

The most crazy and insane person in the series is Billy Butcher he wants to kill every Supe whether they are good or bad it doesn't even matter . Now , the people who read comics know what Im saying . On the other hand , Soldier Boy is good person or good Supe .

[@JH09SUMIT]

Here's how he kills homelander Step 1: Nuke blast makes homelander lose his powers Step 2: A punch

[@onlypacks7033]

His shield is a giant piece of tungsten

[@ansonellis443]

thats what I though

[@joeluchiha]

Please do Queen Maeve next

[@firionr]

Soldier boi bout to wake up saying (did you pray today) bro is coming for em 💀

[@CheekyMungo1997]

The shield is also like thors hammer, Because Hughie tried lifting it and he couldn't

[@unl3ashofficial274]

Bro got the Built in EMP for supes

[@benstock1146]

"He used to be the mightiest superhero for many years before homelander is even born" zooms out to a pic of him pissing himself lmao

[@StefanWinchester]

Solder boy is a bully but not evil homelander is broken but also a monster. Soldier boy at least can see and recognize what he is homlander cannot.

[@TheChemicAly]

Soldier Boy, Neumann, Maeve, V Butcher and Huey’s dad can all take out Homelander.

[@smokemg42]

I feel like butcher will release soldier boy in season 5 as a last ditch attempt to stop homelander to use him as cannon fodder. And soldier boy will really put a beating on homelander enough to where he is weak enough to be infected by that virus that was cooked up at Godolkin. (My theory is that the stronger variant of the virus that will be in the works wont be so unstable as predicted and pretty much kill 2 birds with one stone)

[@8triagrammer]

Not if the writers say no. Sometimes lasers cut people in half, and sometimes they just push people back

[@kessilrun6754]

I don't think it will come down to Soldier Boy versus Homelander. I think the two will team up and Soldier Boy may somehow be proud of Homelander, this time around. It might not be long term, as I don't see the two trying to alpha it out together.

[@gabrielaj2066]

Yes he can. And hopefully I see him again in season 4?

[@EvilAlucard13]

Soldier boy is THE most powerful Supe, and it's not close lol

[@axion6070]

Nah, homelander definitely stronger, really it’s only his beam that’s the problem but it has a long wind up and it’s only viable if the person he’s aiming at is stuck or stunned

[@Arcessitor]

Showrunners literally said No to that, so yeah, it's not close, because he isn't.

[@velluccisamuel]

This sounds like a chatgpt narrative, I'll tell you why. First, do your homework, Soldier Boy was still at his prime in the 80's even if he was born in the 1910's. That is before the radiation treatments.

[@Kuhekin]

And after the radiation treatments, he’s much stronger now with the only downside is that he would be weaker temporary after using the blast

[@Arcessitor]

Yeah the entire phrasing in this script is weird and AI-like.

[@davidkosiba624]

He is probably the most durable supe even more than Homelander , not sure if Homelander on anybody else could actually kill him? Maybe Homelander could put that gas mask on him after a hard fight but kill him? I don't see how , but SB on the other hand could potentially kill any supe with his nuke

[@aaronp6554]

Did an AI write this? "The only way to keep him away from harm's length.." doesn't make any sense.

[@nezarr_3954]

Homelander stated he could lift a plane and soldier boy is relative to him which boosts the strength feats

[@alisonsmith4436]

Thank you so much 😊

[@jonwik7056]

Bro is strongest in the boyz tv sereis. he can outlive all the supes there and cook their powers too if necessary. bro is him.

[@mrshaneyt43]

Don’t think someone understands the meaning of Charismatic😂, he was a cool character but at what point was he ever charismatic 🤷🏻‍♂️

[@Small_child_punter]

I believe Soldier boy is stronger than Homelander physically. More durable as well. Soldier boy wasn't even bruised by homelander, he lost the fight clearly from pure exhaustion. Remember he had fired a blast right before then that was consistently shown to weaken and disorientate him. Meanwhile hes abled to bruise homelander and put the fear of god in him. In their second fight Soldier boy grabs homelander by the jaw. If you listen to the audio you can hear HL try to punch SB off him before Maeve and Billy grab him, but it doesn't affect him at all. Repeat, soldier boy just eats like 3 punches from Homelander after grabbing his jaw. SB proceeds to beat the shit out of billy twice while homelander failed to put him down even once. Hes also resistant to heat vision. Soldier boy at his best is physically superior to Homelander. Homelander is considered the upgrade because he has way more abilities and can fly. That technically makes him overrall stronger than Soldier boy.

[@coletrain6545]

Comic book no. Show yes

[@kevinjiang9980]

heres the real question i wanna know, can soldier boi neutralize neuman and stan edgar?
