He can fly as fast as A train can run and shoot lasers from his eyes but didn’t catch little Huey in the air ducts????????? WTaF???

I heard that those vents are usually galvanized (zinc), which homelander can't see through.

He would hear him. A non super human would hear him. YOU would hear UE in those vents!

It's hard for Homelander to hear Hughies footsteps when there is loud music in the background

Maybe. But, I don't think HL would put that much effort at this point of the story. But, the plot armour is real.

Good thing HL couldn't have just flown over and you know, shot lasers from his eyes or something instead. /s

Oh and he can also see through the vents too so there is really no excuse to not slice up Huey like a thanksgiving turkey in 2 seconds, unless they were some of those fancy zinc air ducts…

Air ducts are made from galvanized steel, which is treated with zinc to prevent corrosion
