The Boys

Two character fromThe Boys- created by Garth Ennis and Darick Robertson - who could not be more different are Butcher and Homelander . The two stand for nearly completely paired nonesuch and have no fondness for one another . Butcher hates Homelander for everything he is , and Homelander really does n’t care about Butcher at all . Despite their major differences , I ’ve noticed their deaths are remarkably similar .

Butcher and Homelanderboth had barbarous deaths , and the rationality they expire were moderately standardised , but those dying have one key dispute between them . When Homelander was kill , he was play a trick on and manipulated byBlack Noir , the clone of Homelander . Black Noir wanted nothing more than to kill Homelander and manipulate Homelander into attempting genocide to finally have a grounds to kill him .

Butcher , meanwhile , design to orchestrate a monumental genocide , and he was finally killed by someone near to him . But Butcher was n’t manipulated into this position ; he project out everything , even his own dying . While both Homelander and Butcher were killed by their successors , Butcher was capable to accept it , while Homelander was n’t .

Homelander Couldn’t Accept His Successor

Homelander always think he was in ascendance . After he accepted that he believed himself to be a forged individual equal to of grotesque things , he had no topic planning a genocide for the bulk of humanity . He was on his way to becoming a brutal dictator , but when he pull in Black Noir , someone created as a fail - safe for him , was go to stop him , he went ballistic . Homelander could n’t believe someone had been manipulating his life and attacked Black Noir with everything he had , leading to a fucking brutal fighting whereHomelander was at last killed .

At his core , Hughie is a good person , and he just could n’t see the world the way Butcher did .

WhenButcher began planning genocide , it was weensy Hughie who managed to take him down . Hughie was also the successor to Butcher , literally check by Butcher to be tougher and firmly with a cynical outlook on the world . fortuitously , Hughie was n’t capable to take these lessons to centre . At his core , Hughie is a good mortal , and he just could n’t see the world the way Butcher did . Even after Butcher slaughtered all of Hughie ’s friends , Hughie still turn down to kill Butcher . It was only because Butcher was able to calmly pull strings Hughie into believing his parent had been murdered that Hughie finally killed Butcher .

The Opposite of Homelander and Black Noir

Ultimately , both Homelander and Butcher were killed by mass meant to take their place , but Butcher was able to accept this change — he ’s even the one who organize it . Homelander was completely forgetful to Black Noir ’s manipulations , and he was bump off brutally because of this supervising . Butcher was intercept , and even then , he still went out on his own term . It ’s fitting that the two major antagonists ofThe Boysboth die in similar fashions , but for very different reasons .
