While that idea was scrapped for Herogasm on screen, incest could soon rear its head again with the identity of Homelander's mother, instead – if she is who we think she is. And if we know The Boyslike we think we do, then heads are going to roll, quite literally, in season three's finale following this revelation.īut that's not all though, because in the comics, Homelander and Soldier Boy actually had sex at one point.

While this isn't how things played out in the comics, Vogelbaum was indeed the man who created Homelander in the first place, and the timelines match up too. And no, we don't think Soldier Boy is lying either. As if Homelander's fragile masculinity hasn't been threatened enough, it turns out now that his biggest rival is actually his dad. "What father wouldn't want that for his son?" "You know what the bitch of it is? If they had just kept me around, I would have let you take the spotlight," says Soldier Boy. "A boy." So far, so cute, but it's the final bit that's the real nut-kicker. With that deposit, Vogelbaum then created a kid who was born in Spring, 1981. Except there wasn't much science going on during that visit, because it turns out that Soldier Boy was just asked to "beat his meat" into a cup using Danielle Deneux, Penthouse's June 1980 cover, for inspiration. It turns out that in Fall, 1980, Soldier Boy was called into Vogelbaum's lab for an experiment - "some shit about genetics".
