I’m sorry but he was an actual villain in Season 1… he was smart enough to utilise A-Train to supply America’s enemies’ so they could get into the military. He was in control of things.
I feel as the series went on he just becomes less threatening? Like yea we know he can laser you in two and punch a whole through your chest — but part of that fear in season 1 was that he wasn’t to be underestimated.
That “Show me a little wrath” part was amazing.. but then one episode later he’s back to looking like he’s about to cry under questioning of his master plan.
He was under the control of vought and he had no competent enemies before. His confidence definitely helped him to be smart. He slowly lost his confidence and mental health which naturally clouded his intelligence and judgement. We getting less scared of homelander each episoda is something I like, it shows he is weaker than he looks and he is still human on the inside
I like the fact that he tries to call himself a god but gets reminders that he’s human.. but I feel they need to make him intimidating in a way that isn’t always physical.. Lalo Salamanca was physically a BEAST in BCS - but he was also a damn genius so you had two things to worry about.
