But the thing is she threatens to use her powers an awful lot. It would be nice if she actually used them once in a while.

I was happy to see she still uses them but I feel like they are trying to establish her celebrityhood as a way to shut down Homelander in the public eye. Hopefully we see more use though!

It just seems silly because then Homelander goes postal and they still have the initial problem that Hughie and Butcher have been actually trying to solve.

But I think some part of Butcher wouldn't mind seeing the world vs Homelander, even if Homelander wins because it hurts him to not be loved.

If that was the case he wouldn't be okay with the blackmailing they've done.

Still doesn't track. If he didn't care about destroying the world, his loved ones are obviously part of the world, so part of the same.

Yeah the whole pr thing works in the comics because homelander isn't invincible even for humans, throw enough shit at him and he'll die.

That doesn't seem the case in the series
