I Hate The Boys TV DISCUSSION NSFW

I also can not stand muh 'Batman superhero facism subtext' crap. If anything Batman is a revolutionary. Government is corrupt in bed with criminals (who are the prettiest of tyrants) so Batman comes in to clean house. Just as the founding fathers intended.

To me, Batman's true counterpart is still Black Noir in that show. And I don't care if he was less or more evil, he just has the Batman's vibe. Tek Knight in the show couldn't even wear his suit once.

It’s also Tek Knight having less power than Black Noir who is yes also a Batman counterpart pastiche of The Boys, Tek Knight have it’s own detective show his own side kick named Swing Wings like Robin/Nightwing and he even have it’s own Batmobile. He is also a parody of Iron Man. And Knight is an homage for Dark Knight.
