Gen V Season 2 Finale Explained | Setting the Stage for The Boys Season 5

November 01, 2025

The SuperHero Homies are back to break down Gen V Season 2 — Amazon Prime’s hit The Boys spin-off that’s full of blood, satire, and super-powered chaos! In this episode, we review the final four episodes of Gen V and discuss how the season connects to The Boys Season 5 and the larger Vought universe.


Before diving into the main discussion, we open with a 30-minute cold open covering all things pop culture and comics! We start with Absolute Batman Annual #1, where Batman beats up Nazis and white supremacists — which only makes us love this run even more. We also share our thoughts on new releases like Weapons, Bring Her Back, Welcome to Derry, and House Full of Dynamite. Plus, we talk about the upcoming Outer Worlds 2 video game and why Swamp Thing is the perfect gothic horror comic to revisit this Halloween season.


Once we dive into Gen V, we discuss everything from standout characters like Cipher (aka Godolkin) and Polarity, to the show’s deeper flaws — including its increasing reliance on tired superhero tropes. We explore the highs, lows, and missed potential of this season while predicting what might come next in The Boys Season 5.
