Powers are used in even more creative ways than before, it flips who the bad guys are, and the overall tone has changed, becoming more mysterious and less action-focused.These three things help to separate Gen V from The Boys and make it a unique watching experience. Gen V puts a spotlight on its characters’ powers being a personification of social issues, and the overall tone of the show pulls it away from the extended fights and less subtle approaches that the characters in The Boys used to achieve their goals, making it less of an action show. Gen V also flips the good and bad guys in the show, as the humans are the ones that need to be taken down and stopped and the Supes need to do it, while this wasn’t the case in The Boys.Politics has always been a big part of The Boys universe, whether the show is mocking modern political views, Homelander’s descent into madness pulling from both Donald Trump and Barack Obama, and the divided nation at the end of The Boys Season 3 reminiscent of the division present in America.

Neither are Starlight’s, The Deep’s nor A-Train’s.RELATED: Gen V Featurette Unveils Guide to Godolkin University’s Aspiring Young HeroesRELATED: Gen V Star Explains the REAL Meaning of The Boys Spinoff’s Title
