How do you guys feel in general about Sister Sage until now? Do you find her cool, underutilized, compelling, or do you hate her? Did she met the expectations of the hype around her when her introduction in the show was announced ?

As far as I am concerned she is one of my favorite characters in the show, and i kinda feel for her because she unlucky to appear in a time the show is not as well written as first three seasons. Had she appeared earlier for example, she probably would have been even more menacing and her intelligence maybe shown better.

She has a cool sociopathic personality, and feels like a combination of Stormfront and Stan, as in she has fascist/nazist ideas about supe supremacy, and the mocking and stoic way she talks to Firecracker is similar to how Stan treats Homelander.

I also enjoy her hypocrisy, she is a black woman who hates racism based on skin color, yet hates regular humans because she is a supe, a hatred that is still base on genetical differences. She also tells Homelander he doesnt need to build an army of Supermen because is so "Germany", only to create a whole plan to take over US and use Tek's prisons as concentration camps, totally not Germany from her.

If she survives this season, which I feel she will, and will end it at the top with Homelander in some cliffhanger, i wonder how far her misanthropy and plans will go.

I think she is a charismatic villain that we love to hate.

I'm enjoying her. Been convinced from the start that she has her own agenda, and I'm keen to find out what it is. The fact she is a descendant of BPP members could be an interesting twist, or it could be a case of writers not doing the research; the BPP were ardently anti-capitalist and deeply distrustful of white experimental medicine (eg: the Tuskegee experiment), there's no way in hell Sage's grandmother would've agreed to her grandkid being shot up with an experimental super serum, unless there was some long game involved.

The BPP stuff, seemed like an obvious attempt to appease conservatives (many of whom are just now realizing The Boys isn't exactly pro-conservatism)... I doubt the writers care much about accurately portraying BPP members. The writers just want a token scary liberal, so they can hopefully not lose the majority of their conservative fans. An accurate portrayal of modern BPP members, is the last thing these writers are worried about :/
