We finished it last night. What a crazy show. We loved it!

Just read that they're already filming season 2 didn't realize it got renewed before the 1st episode even dropped. But I'm sure they already knew they had a winner. Some of the new heroes/villains next season sound interesting already.

I heard about season 2 already being greenlit but I didn't know it had already started filming. That's great news!

Show is good. Hope to see The Boys pops, especially since they made Umbrella Academy pops.

Not sure if this was mentioned but an A-Train pop shows up in the show

Spoiler: show

, so hopefully that's a sign that there may be a license in place already.

This could be the rare POP that literally has to stay in box, as the plastic shell would be the only thing in the box. lol

Good one. Maybe when he is invisible and has blood on him to identify parts of him.

Starlight with her 1st costume, and then her other one could be a chase. or a chase of her with glowing eyes and what not. But yeah, good show to me. I like their take on super heroes, where things aren't so black and white. Philosophy and their ethics play more of a role since it's rated R. Marvel and DC are pretty cookie cutter and don't ever really get into morals. Don't want to spoil anything too much, but know that it definitely isn't a typical super hero show.

I agree!

Love anything Garth Ennis creates. Only about halfway through the show, but it definitely lives up to the quality of the comics so far for sure

New comic book based show on Amazon Prime streaming. I’d recommend it

Just don't watch it with kids.

Most definitely not kid-friendly. Love the different take on the super hero genre though

Me too. Don't get me wrong I love the kid friendly MCU movies but this was a nice change of pace.

My thoughts exactly. It’s nice to see something a little closer to Rated R sometimes like the Deadpool movies. Excellent change of pace and a great way to keep comic adaptations fresh

On episode 7 and 100% agree we need these

Oh yes. This is what my co-worker was telling me about yesterday literally........ Took a few minutes to put two and two together.. She did highly recommend it.

Hope has pop soon!

That's awesome news! We can't wait until the next season becomes available. I think this is one of Amazon primes better exclusive. I might be wrong and missing out other shows.

Need a pop ride with The Deep in a van stealing the dolphin . Lol

Finally binged the whole series. It was good. Not what I was expecting but good. I'd probably have to watch second season before I'd be interested in buying some pops though

Spoiler free...season 2 can’t get here fast enough!

Yup. I haven't loved a show this much in a long time. Trying to figure out what else to watch now lol

Wow is definitely the word used for this show.

Need to get on with watching this show. Heard nothing but great things...

This is seriously the way to create a super hero show. It would be so wild if Batman ever got this kind of treatment.

Just started watching the show and I am hooked. Some great pops would be able to be made.

Postby **Funko_boy13** » Mon Aug 05, 2019 12:11 am

I would love to see The Boys pops.

Postby **Gman18251** » Mon Aug 05, 2019 12:16 am

I just want a starlight pop lol

Postby **ImranC23** » Mon Aug 05, 2019 12:37 am

I wonder if Funko would be willing to do a pop of Homelander or The Deep. I know they’re fictional characters but given their character’s actions that could be really troublesome. Aesthetically their costumes are great minus A-Train, could definitely confuse some kids and such lol

.

I already see a bloody Hughie chase in my head though lol

Haven't watched yet but with all the positive reviews I've read online and now here I think I need to check it out. I think I saw Brian tweet about the show too and that's how I got introduced to Umbrella Academy.

I was at SDCC and they were promoting this show. I figured let me give it a try. It was definitely worth it. I love it.
