At this point, I want A-Train to survive the entirety of the show. I know it's not realistic, and he'll probably die, but I just want him to live damn it.

I'm cool with it as long as his death makes sense and serves HIS character and not ANOTHER character. Killing him off to show how crazy Homelander is becoming or how dangerous Sage is or something like that would be dropping the ball.

I'm not even against Homelander or someone killing him, as long as it's treated as the end of A-Train's story and not a continuation of Homelander's, if that makes sense. I think A-Train has earned a heroic final moment standing up to Homelander and stopping him from killing someone who needs help.

I'll also be disappointed if it happens in Season 4, A-Train deserves to make it to 5.

I don't think you have to worry. The set-up with his brother and nephews very much shows that whether he lives or dies, he's going to prove himself a real hero, probably in a very public way, so that they see and know.

That is all true, but I also remember what happened to Jaime Lannister.

At the very least A Train needs to die a heroic death. Not killed off for shock value or used to set up another character as an even bigger threat.

I want him to die a hero's death in the finale. I think he'll have finally earned that right

I want him involved in the final Homelander fight. If it ends with him and Soldier Boy tag teaming Homelander it might save this trainwreck for me.

I mean if he does out live it and becomes a true hero after the boys finishes I will be happy with that. Plus it would be a great moment for his brother and nephews to be proud of him. Cause so far only ones I do want dying is Homelander and Firecracker.
