Summary
WhileHomelanderis the strongest " supe " inThe Boys’universe , there are severalMCUheroes who are strong and could probably obtain their own against the leader of The Seven . Played by Antony Starr in Amazon Prime’sThe Boys , Homelander is the series ' leading resister , a vitiated and immoral equivalent to DC ’s Superman possess many of the same abilities . However , some Marvel characters could still likely take him down all the same .
The Boys ' cosmos is full of superpowered organism , though the universe of discourse as a whole is relatively underpowered next to the MCU and DC realities . casing in degree , althoughHomelander has many of the same power as Supermanincluding topnotch strength , flight , and heat imagination , the Kryptonian Man of Steel is far strong as an foreigner power by the sun compare to Homelander who ’s simply an enhanced homo experiment on by the Vought Corporation . While quantify strengths and various business leader levels across franchise is often immanent , here are 10 MCU heroes who are arguably strong than Homelander and have a self-colored chance at taking him down .
desire to catch up before the next release , or just revisit the universe for a refresher ? Here ’s the Holy Order to watch the entire MCU timeline .
10Hulk
Gamma-Irradiated Rage Monster
Right off the bat , Bruce Banner ’s Hulk is a quality MCU nominee to take down Homelander . Having been enhance by high levels of gamma radiation , The Incredible Hulk only gets strong the more angry he gets . Massively firm with a gamy threshold of durability , one could imagine that Homelander ’s deadly heat visual sense probably would n’t do much harm before the Hulk got nigh enough to thwack the leader of The Seven around like a rag wench ( not unlike Loki in 2012’sAvengers )
what is more , the Hulk would also have no problem cope with Homelander ’s fury even when the supe is at his most unhinged and explosive . That said , it can be indicate that early iteration of Banner ’s Hulk could wipe the story with Homelander . The odds would in all probability be gloomy for the MCU ’s current " saucy Hulk"whose strength and rage have been mitigated in favor of Banner retain his intelligence as seen in 2019’sAvengers : Endgameand 2022’sShe - Hulk : Attorney at Law .
9Thor
Asgardian Strength And Uru Weapons
The God of Thunder should also be capable to take down Homelander fairly easily , considering his own great strength and Asgardian bidding over lightning in the MCU . His uru weaponry should n’t be discount either , such asThor ’s legendary hammer Mjolnir and axe Stormbreaker . Both weapons should be capable of leave behind lasting damage to Homelander ( usingThe Boysas a reference when other supes have oversee to land hit ) .
Thor is also capable of flight of steps , meaning Homelander would n’t be able to evade the God of Thunder so easy . also , his otherworldly physiology as an Asgardian likely gives the Son of Odin a peg up in the durability section . Having gone toe to toe with Thanos more than once in the MCU , Thor should have no problem when it issue forth to Homelander . It would also be humorous if Thor were to only give his hammer to Homelander , whose delicate soul and ego would belike come undone in the brass of his abundant lack of worthiness .
8Sentry
The Power of A Million Exploding Suns
At present , Bob Reynolds ' The Sentry is a bit of an alien in the MCU , though he is expect to debut in 2025’sThunderbolts . play by Lewis Pullman , the Sentry will either serve as an friend to the MCUs ' upcoming Thunderbolts squad or a potential antagonist ( perhaps both ) . At any rate , there ’s no doubt that The Sentry would tear through Homelander like theme ( just as he would with 90 % of the Marvel Universe ’s heroes ) , assuming his on - concealment big businessman levels are going to equate those in the original comics .
Imbued with the ability of " a million exploding suns " , Sentry is one of the most powerful Marvel Cuban sandwich of all prison term . However , that power is closely tie to Bob ’s mental stability , as well as whether his dark personality is in ascendancy ( known as The Void ) . Regardless , the expectation would be that the MCU ’s Sentry would be able to swat and squash Homelander like a fly(even though they do partake some major mental flaws ) . Much like with Superman , the power disparity between the two is quite important .
7Captain Marvel
Cosmically Enhanced
Powered by the Space Stone itself , it ’s likely that the MCU ’s Captain Marvel could also take on Homelander and emerge the victor . Having been cosmically enhance with apparently measureless Department of Energy potential , it’d likely be hard for Homelander to do any kind of endure damage to Carol Danvers . After all , Avengers : Endgamesaw Captain Marvel battling Thanos one - on - one , and she kept come even after strike a direct bang from the Power Stone itself . keep back that in mind , it stands to grounds that Danvers is solid than Homelander and could take anything he could cast at her with his own powers .
6Rogue
Homelander’s Powers Could Be Taken
Despite being criminally underutilized in Fox’sX - Menmovies , Rogue is a top contender as someone who could be stronger thanThe Boys’Homelander . Having permanent escape and super long suit courtesy of Captain Marvel ( look in the comics andX - piece ' 97),Rogue is already a human dynamo before using her mutant gift of power absorptionto waste pipe life forces and take another ’s abilities with a single touch sensation . To that end , Rogue could easy apply Homelander ’s own powers against him to win the day .
5Silver Surfer
Wielder of The Power Cosmic
Despite being the most sinewy supe inThe Boys’reality , even Homelander would in all likelihood hang before the Silver Surfer and his instruction of the Power Cosmic . imbue with this unlimited cosmic vigor source by Galactus when he was his favored harbinger , Norrin Radd is one of the most powerful beings in the entire Marvel Universe . To that close , facing Homelander would likely be a very minimal terror compare to what the Silver Surfer ’s is used to traveling the cosmos .
Radd has yet to debut in the MCU , as the only bouncy - action Surfer was voiced by Laurence Fishburne in 2007’sFantastic Four : Rise of the Silver Surfer . However , a new version of Galactus ' herald is expect to debut in 2025’sFantastic Four : First Stepsplayed by Julia Garner . As such , the assumption is thatthis new MCU Silver Surfer will handle the Power Cosmic as well .
4Ikaris
The Eternals' Superman
Much like the Sentry , Ikaris is a Marvel character who partake in similarities with Supermanand his classic Kryptonian powers . In Ikaris ' character , this include ace strength , flight of stairs , and heat visual modality . That also means he shares the same powers as Homelander , though seemingly at a much stronger and gamey point . After all , Ikaris is an everlasting made by Marvel ’s cosmic Celestials .
As one key example , The Eternalsmovie saw Ikaris using his hotness vision to damageThe Domowhich had been able to withstand skinny proximity to the sun , suggesting his beams are far more powerful than Homelander ’s . Additionally , Ikaris is seen flying into the sun at the end ofEternals , suggesting that the full power of a star is one of the few thing open of destroy him . To that ending , Homelander would probably have a hard fourth dimension land a meaningful hit on the Eternal .
3Jean Grey
Omega-Level Telepath and Telekinetic
Whether it ’s the Jean Grey from the originalX - Mentimeline or the younger Jean from the rebooted timeline Charles William Post - sidereal day of Future Past , Homelander would have a very grueling clock time catch snug enough to kill the most well - known host of the Phoenix Force . While Homelander may be one of the potent being inThe Boys’universe physically , Jean is an Omega - horizontal surface telepath and telekinetic even without the Phoenix . For all of his power , Homelander is likely still susceptible to mental blast , especially considering all the conditioning and brainwashing he was subjected to by Vought during their experiments .
2Scarlet Witch
Chaos Magic To The Maximoff
to boot , it follows that magic is probable another fundamental weakness for Homelander , especially deal howThe Boys’universe is more grounded and has n’t explored that facet found in most other superhero universes . As the preach Scarlet Witch and wielder of great chaos magic , it follow that Wanda Maximoff is the stronger superhero who could address Homelander as easily as she handled Thanos inEndgamebefore he call down a strike on his own troops to escape her grip . It follow that Homelander would in all likelihood have a hard time taking her down if he were ever to make his way to the MCU .
1Deadpool/Wolverine
Healing Factor Plus Adamantium
While it would probably be a tight match - up compare to others on this list , it ’s playfulness to conceive of how a fight would go if Homelander were to take on either Deadpool or Wolverine , perhaps even both at the same time . There ’s no question that Homelander is strong than both Deadpool and Wolverine combined , at least in the strong-arm sense . also , his heat sight would in all likelihood result in several burns and drop off limbs .
That being articulate , one still has to account for Wade and Logan ’s respective healing factors which would aid them stay in the game , as well as Logan ’s adamantium skeleton and claws(even Deadpool now has adamantium katanas ) . PerhapsMarvel ’s rarefied adamantium metal is strong and sharp enoughthat it could do some substantial damage to Homelander . At any rate , a three - means battle between Homelander , Wolverine , and Deadpool would likely be one of the bloodiest and most brutal fight of all time ( regardless of the ultimate winner ) .
