I realized a train actually did train, compared to the other 7 members he actually trains, I see only black noir and Maeve ever do real training

[@kingol4801]

Actually Homelander was brutally trained as well. When he was a baby (not as tough yet) Vought would hire ex-military and adult supes to beat down on him, HARD. So, he has black-ops level of hand-to-hand combat, with the specialization of super-strength thrown in. Remember that martial art is based around the relative strength/durability ratio. Take Omni-man, for example. Vultramites are more strong than they are durable. Therefore, they can use their hands to slice and dice one another, and grappling/wrestling would be useless (as long as one Vultramite grabs another, the second one can put their fist through their stomach for one hit KO). Now take Homelander vs Soldier Boy. They are the opposite - their durability is greater than their strength. So much fighting, and for what? A couple bruises? When Homelander fights on equal ground, martial art resembles pillow fight more than it does resemble classical MMA fight human VS human contest would entail - lots of collateral damage, many punches, little to no impact or damage. Hence, Homelander’s fighting style is optimized in a martial-art perspective - grappling, wrestling and chokeholds are FAR more effective when your opponent is more durable, but does not have the strength to resist or escape them well. So, contrary to popular belief of “Homelander/Superman are bad at fighting, bohooo”… that is not the case. Very far from it

i love how the scene with starlight shows him literally nearing the speed of light and for some reason this guy is afraid of homelander?

[@elementblue780]

Speedsters are never done right, because if they were, then the comics, shows, movies, etc. would be boring. Super speed is easily one of the strongest, if not THE strongest, superpower there is. The speedster has to be overly cocky (The Flash), have a drug addiction(A-train), or just be monumentally stupid (CW's Flash) in order for their powers to not eclipse everyone else's.

[@FingerinUrDaughter]

super speed just means that when someone DOES hit you, that force is going to be amplified by how ridiculously fast youre moving at that moment. also, as omni man says "he could run fast. not exactly your premier super power."

[@Gabris451]

Wait, only now i realized how unrealistic is fight with Starlight. No matter how fast you are light always travels at the speed of light regardless frame of reference. So even if he could speed up to 99.99% of light speed, her beams should be instant for him anyways.

[@obi-wankenobi5411]

Bold of you to assume, superhero TV shows would follow basic physics. But yeah, this bothered me too. Dude can see light in slo-mo? That's just not possible. It was a blasphemy. Besides he can barely break the speed of sound. Light is waaaaay faster than that.

[@Hari99]

its prolly just using electricity to shoot plasma

[@conan377]

It's not travelling at the speed of light, if it was you wouldn't be able to see it. You can only see light after it has bounced off of an object, otherwise it's moving to fast.

[@Loltroll8]

i mean who knows how fast he truly is. A train is based off the flash who in many continuities can travel faster than light

[@detherocablest7054]

Given this, I often expected Starlight to be a lot stronger than that. But “energy glowy beams” are built differently.

I don't even think the flash pulled a whole train before.

[@z1nin]

flash aint that strong

[@TheWarriorVA]

Flash has actually held Infinity before, so yeah, lol.

[@Ethan-hk8se]

The difference is that A-Train has super strength separate to his speed. The Flash doesn’t. If Flash wants to push something, or punch someone really hard, he needs to be using the Speed Force / his super speed to do it. A-Train could lift you overhead with one arm in normal time, Barry Allen\Wally West without using super speed wouldn’t be able to do that.

[@Ethan-hk8se]

The faster Flash moves, the more powerful his punches become, due to how the faster something travels, the denser it becomes. When A-Train hit Kimiko through that concrete wall, Flash could do that, but only if he was moving crazy fast.

[@TheWarriorVA]

@Ethan-hk8se That's literally incorrect. Barry does have enhanced strength. Maybe not on the level of Superman, but enhanced beyond that of a normal human being. And here is thing about his acceleration. It's near instantaneous. He doesn't need to run around to get fast. The Flash has several instances of what is known as a Plank Instant. He is massively faster than light. He can stand still and vibrate his own body so quickly it causes his own molecules to phase in and out.

[@mitsukami]

In fact, Homelander should fear A-Train, if the infinite mass punch worked in The Boys universe, Homelander would be blown up like Robin...

[@Ethan-hk8se]

But that would only work if he could get that fast, which unfortunately he can’t. If A-Train could run at light speed, he’d quite literally be unbeatable. Even without an infinite mass punch, if he was just moving at the speed of light NOTHING could touch him, not even Homelander’s heat vision.

Yeah thats one i just noticed, unless her blasts are heated plasma or something, a-train is nowhere near light speed

[@abduljah9355]

He doesn't have to be faster than light, he just has to be faster than her reflexes. If he can anticipate where she is about to shoot light and dodge just before she shoots, maybe he could avoid her attacks without actually outrunning light.

[@dontbanmebrodontbanme5403]

@@abduljah9355 This is not whether he can beat Starlight. I've always said that speedsters are generally the most powerful characters and no one should ever be able to beat them. The point is, however, he should not be faster than light. Now what's coming out of her hands/body? Everything I'm reading says she absorbs electrical energy and shoots out "light energy". Even if it was just electrical energy she's shooting out, that moves near the speed of light. A-Train, from everything I'm reading, can run up to Mach 3, or 2,300 miles per hour. Super fast, but clearly no where close to the speed of light. Again, however, he should clearly be able to beat her. Quite frankly, nobody should be able to beat someone moving at Mach 3. Homelander seems impervious to anything, so I'm not saying A-Train should be able to beat him, but the reverse is also true. Homelander isn't fast enough to ever catch A-Train. Most super hero stories nerf speedster powers to "even things out".
