Yall ive seen alot of comments saying that homelander was born with powers so he wasnt given compound V. Now i thought they gave him more v either as a child or thru test tube to make him stronger. If i mixed up the comic and the show then... im cooked 😅. Have a great day luv ye ❤ Edit: 2 million views is Craazzyyy. Thank you i am honoured.

[@robertivey7644]

Ryan is the only baby born with powers without being given V. Homelander was injected with V while in the womb I’m guessing.

[@thanqualthehighseer]

As Homelander uses his powers constantly and at such a high level. He might be burning his body out due to the stress, which has caused rapid aging

[@TheRealBatCave]

They did give him v while he was still in the womb, Ryan seems 2 b the only 1 truly born without it

[@itstoru8197]

Homelander was given V. They mentioned in the show that ryan is the first natural born supe

[@oldknowledge64]

Yeah. What we were told at first was Vought's propaganda. Remember the supes didn't even know V existed at first. They thought they were born that way. So truth has been unfolding as the story progresses. When we found out soldier boy was Homelander's father, some people didn't accept the propaganda wasn't true. They still accept it even though we have been shown it wasn't true. Ryan isn't the first born supe, Homelander is. They said soldier boy was the first supe, but is was stormfront/liberty. We were told supes were born, it was V. They said they shot Homelander* up with V, but they used soldier boys seed. Etc. Some are not keeping up with the revelations and using info that has been exposed as false in the series. Peace

I believe it's implying he was dosed in the womb with a version of V and mix of soldier boy DNA, the show makes it clear that Ryan is the first natural birth, the comics I don't know though. If I had to guess I'd say the aging factor is more random than anything seeing as it seems to be on random characters in various points of time from storm front and soldier boy in the old days to now kimiko who was originally intended to be a supe terrorist to be abused. I don't think they have any control over who gets what power simply because multiple facilities exist to house the dangerous, uncontrollable ones.

[@John-qv7sy]

Remember that he's Soldier Boys son , and one scene says he had lazer vision and the ability to fly from birth . He probably got random powers from soldier boy , and he either DID get no aging, or slower aging , and its just stress, OR Soldier oy didnt pass down his direct powers , so Homelander didn't get the slow aging power like soldier boy, and has powers Soldier boy doesn't have like lazer vision and x ray vision . He also could have juat been dosed with more / other versions of Compound V, that gave him different powers. Also Soldier boy was cryogenically frozen. Again to be clear, I think that Soldier Boys powers weren't directly passed on to Homelander, as Homelander didn't get Soldier Boys exact powers, but didferent ones , so I think its most likely Homelander just lucked out.

[@Mikerille]

He’s not aging FASTER, he’s just AGING. Only the pure stuff the “12 original herbs and spices” makes you life essentially forever, it’s what Neumans daughter, soldier boy, and stormfront have (but is too expensive to make). Homelander just got a LOT of normal V at birth.

[@OKTAPHMFAA]

How does Neumans daughter have pure V? Like SF and SB?

[@Mikerille]

@@OKTAPHMFAA it was the deal with homelander, Neumann turning on edger, homelander got her the “original recipe, all 12 spices and herbs” which is the one that garuntees good powers and works 100% of the time, makes you strong (so she can protect herself as neuman says, also we see her practically body kimiko and she’s still young, we know supes become stronger with time).

[@lowdownpapaya7292]

[@KrazzeeKane]

Here's the facts: Homelander's male zygote is a supe with V, his mother's identity is hidden still but it's likely it is Stormfront or another female supe who has V, rather than a normal human woman. Obviously the homeless woman was only the surrogate, which imparts no DNA to the ivf fetus, aka baby Homelander. On top of having a confirmed male V father and a likely V mother, he was also given numerous injections of Compound V while he was a fetus, so he is absolutely filled with V down to his very molecular, DNA level. He's the first truly natural born supe in the show (and yes, IVF babies, aka 'Test Tube Babies' count as natural born, they aren't literally grown in a test tube like some people seem to genuinely think). I also think if he was to ever get hit by a full power Soldier Boy beam, it would outright kill HL and reduce him to goo, as the V is a part of his DNA itself, his molecular structure is built with it, so if all that was burnt out it would be a catastrophic collapse.

The guy has been on the verge of a mental breakdown for like 3 seasons now It could be that the version of Compound V he was given was an adapted formula instead of the original, much riskier, version by Frederick Vought Maybe its because he's a natural born Supe, meaning that while he doesn't suffer from any inherent side effects he also doesn't get the bonus of aging incredibly slowly And that's just off the top of my head.

[@soshi7869]

I think it's bc homelander is technically a natural born supe

I’m sure soldier boy and Stormfront weren’t the only ones who got pure compound v. WTF happened to the others? Why are they all old and dead?

[@christianwafula9302]

Also Black Noir

[@M-420]

Hmmmm maybe for the shows convenience only soldier boy and stormfront got it 💀

[@user-fn6mr4zj2n]

Probably dead. The first people to receive Compound V were prisoners in concentration camps.

[@Havchik1235]

Maybe soldier boy is aging too. He was in a fridge.

[@hairballusa]

Let's not ignore the most likely factor that kept Soldier Boy young....he was in suspended animation for a long time before he was discovered and freed by The Boys. Also, he was put back into suspended animation afterwards. So....plenty of rest, no stress, and cells aging far more slowly.

[@romanbogdan3971]

maybe soldier boy was held in a cryogenic chamber?? cant you think?

[@M-420]

Ok what about stormfront then

[@smokeflame3823]

nah man they just gased him up to keep hom asleep

[@ashleywilkonson386]

Homelander was never injected with compound V. It's said in the comics and the show.

[@ka_killers2088]

“While some Supes, such as Queen Maeve and Homelander, were given high doses of the drug and are immensely powerful” a direct statement of him having been given comp v so what comic were you reading?

[@ashleywilkonson386]

@@ka_killers2088 “he was grown in a secret laboratory, the progeny of genetic material taken from Stormfront, who was injected with Compound V while still a member of the Hitler Youth.”. Also in the current season the lady who worked at the research center said that he zapped his way out of his mothers womb.

It could also be the after after effects of radiation poisoning aka soldier boys anti v blast Edit: it could also just be cause of stress

[@M-420]

Ohhhhh I never thought of stress nice one

Because soldier boy was frozen like Captain America

[@Snavels]

That would be such a fitting end to Homelander I think. Getting old, decrepit and fading away is probably the one death he would despise the most

[@sandipanchatterjee5017]

He didn’t get compound V..He is a natural born Supe birthed by Soldier boy

[@1БигБро]

clown

[@mrb00ce2]

He actually did, they injected V into the donors egg.

[@victorkimaru4079]

He did tho. As an embryo. They made him in a lab, pumped him full of v, paid a homeless woman to be a surrogate who then got lasered to death by the already v'd up fetus

Bro it’s because soldier boy was in a cryo chamber💀

[@imfrederic2312]

He was in his 60’s though by the time he got put in the chamber but still looked 30 so he clearly also has anti aging abilities. Same with Stormfront.

[@TheErich9876]

I think he needed to be able to age so that he could grow into an adult. So when they were creating homelander they made it so he would.

[@gj62]

Soldier Boy was kept on ice so he didn't age

[@The_prophet_james_of_elia]

You're also forgetting that Solider Boy was kept in cryo sleep for a long time also

He never took compound v, his father was soldier boy. He received it genetically.

Homelander was not given Compound V, he already has Soldier Boy's genes and he already had powers when he was born.

Dont forget soldier boy was cyro frozen for years and was experimented on so he probably isn't the same anymore

[@DeweySizemore]

Personal Pet Theory here, but it could be a case of Rapid Cellular Degradation. We know Homelander had powers as a baby and it's safe to say Vought probably feed him doses of Compound-V as he grew up to increase them. What if the results just speed up his Bodies aging, giving him all the powers he would've NATURALLY grown into over the years, faster. Vought probably knew about the Aging issues and kept it an absolute Secret just so they could win by forcing him to use all of his powers more, thereby burning himsel out....

[@thedoctor401]

What if it's a mutation caused by soldier boys radiation

[@jgordon618]

Soldier boy ages normally. People forget like captain America, the hero he's obviously based off, he was frozen for a long time. For him he went to sleep but the world advanced like 50 years

[@Rob_Reed]

They all have different super powers. Anti aging is something that Soldier Boy and Stormfront had, whereas Homelander has super powers they don't have.

[@conlooka9356]

I legit thought those were Stormfront's hairs that he was collecting for "reasons"

[@funfactsandfactsthatarefun5007]

The scientist probably just didn’t give homelander anti ageing as what use is a super weapon that permanently a baby

[@jayz4446]

Bruh he's aging normally, soldier boy just hasn't aged cause he was incubated like captain America

[@NeoHellPoet]

The simple answer is that slow or no aging is just one of the powers you can get and he didn't.

[@fooperfarvey4812]

WHAT!?!?! Homelander is a blessing to this country! He is a loving father and an American hero. Don’t tell me you’re one of those dang starlighters!

[@roffe8751]

I mean everyone has different powers. Perhaps homelander simply does age.

[@ScoopsFPS]

Gotta think about it. Solider Boy was literally frozen in Russia, it’s like if Captain America didn’t go into the Ice he would’ve aged. same thing with solider boy
