Been reading through the comics. Good shit but also the way they handle queer issues is very 2005...
It'd best read with an understanding of what it was to be queer in the oughts. Also the one trans character is another "bearded dude in a dress" caricature which sucks bad.
That being said, probably one of the few pieces of media that's willing to show just how black the heart of a fascist really is. No punches held.
What comics are you talking about? Are there more of these? Where???
EDIT: immediately after writing this comment, it occurred to me that the Homelander TV show was probably based on something. Nvm
