If you’ve seen the The Boys series finale, then you know what I’m talking about — but how can Vought International possibly save the entire concept of “superheroes” after everything that’s happened?

Sure, a lot of people probably still feel like “not everyone in that group is the same.” Characters from Gen V are genuinely good people, and Starlight is obviously one of the few real heroes. But still, like Billy Butcher said, the next Homelander is always right around the corner.

Even if Stan Edgar and Vought were suddenly like, “Okay, we can’t make the same mistakes again,” and both Vought and the government genuinely tried to make superheroes more controlled and decent, how do you even fix public trust at that point?

And honestly, it doesn’t even have to come from a good place. If Homelander wanted to, he could literally destroy the world. Corporate executives and government officials are still human beings living on Earth — they wouldn’t want to die either. So logically, it makes sense they’d try to create a system where superheroes are at least somewhat stable and manageable.

But my question is: in-universe, how the hell do you actually save it after all this? Most people probably wouldn’t trust superheroes ever again.
